Chatterbox: Down to Earth
I'm baaack!
I'm baaack!
Yup, it's me Cho Chang, previously known as Eówyn. Lent is now over, so that means it is EASTER!!! Well, Bunnymunde and I are happy about that.
Your pal has been very busy. I've been cleaning up the whole house, making computer games, reaching 62.8% on Lego LoTR for the Xbox, searching for my Easter basket (haven't found it yet!) building a Lego Victorian house, drawing a manga mermaid, and drawing another manga picture, whilst watching Masterchef junior.
You've probably noticed that I'm calling myself Cho Chang. Well, I have been having an identity crisis. On the cb. I just don't identify with the name Eówyn. She doesn't represent me. She's a great charrie, don't get me wrong, but I feel like I'm Cho Chang. Not Eówyn.
Guess what! My half month cbversery past, and I forgot about it! I want to say thank you to the Admins, and every. Single. One. Of. You. Cbers.
You guys are some of my closest friends!

CHO!!!! *Tackle hug*
So glad you are back! We missed you!!!
P.s. I'm glad you are back to using the CB name Cho C. It was a little confusing before with your other pen name.
(March 28, 2016 - 7:23 pm)
Yes it was. I missed you so much! *tackle hugs back*

I still don't understand. How can a fictional character "be you"? How can a fictional character "suit you"? Not trying to offend, I'm just confused.

I guess if you really sympathize with them or feel like their personality, traits, interests, etc. are akin to your own, they could "suit you."
(March 29, 2016 - 5:30 am)
Well, if it's a charrie who's personality is a lot like yours, that's one way!
But for me, it's really the name. Eówyn certainly suits my personality more, but when I was thinking of a name, Cho just popped into my mind, and something just clicked. It became my name and it was like my parents naming me when I was born.
I attempted to change my name in order to please Mei, but instead a lost a part of me. It's like trying to change your name which your parents gave you. At least, that's how it feels.

Cho, I really like your name!
I think its cute and spunky, and perfectly matches your adorably little personality! It is a happy name, short and sweet, but with the best sound! I can see how it clicked, and I like it.
MEI, I'm sorry it bothers you. I still don't understand why, however. But as for the 'clicking' part, my name is a great example.
I fell in love!
My name is Katie, and this is for the Cricket magazine! A katydid is in the same family, so yeah! I actually first thought it was a flower, but when I looked it up lo and behold I fell in love! It was brilliant, I thought, and decided to make it my cb name because it was, and still is, fabulous!
I am sure Cho feels the same!
My name was just funny and ingenuous, I thought, and that is why I liked it!

I can't express my feelings in words, so here they are in emoji form:

Why is everyone using the word "click"? Nothing "clicked" when I changed or came up with mine, and I'm happy.
(March 29, 2016 - 2:03 pm)
I don't know Mei, but that's the way it seems to best describe the coming up with a name, any name for me. When someone told me that there was already a Lyra on cb I sorta cast around for a name, couldn't find one, gave up, and in the middle of my homework the word 'Cockleburr' just fell onto my head. I felt this incredible sense of peace and I thought Oh. Cockleburr. That's me! I am Cockleburr! And that's how I feel when I name anything. Naming is always the hardest part for me, whether it's a character, pet chicken, or tree. I just know when I get the right name for something and until I get that name I have this nagging, itching feeling at the base of my head because it isn't the right name. I have this feeling until a name just pops into my head and I know it's the right one. It really does feel like something clicks in my mind. Does anyone else get like this or am I the only one?

Maybe it's just me. I've always joked that I have Split Personality Disorder.
Normally, I'm really picky, but I actually don't care about usernames much at all! I always want to change them, because I keep on getting new ideas, so that's why I'm doing my "always changing" name thing!
I never felt anything click, ever, so I just don't know.

And also, my personality on the CB doesn't fit my personality in real life.

So, Admin, what do you think? One outcome will offend a sensitive girl's race. Another outcome with offend a girl's identity.
Is there even a solution? I really don't want to leave the Chatterbox, but…
I don't know what outcomes you are talking about. I think each person should choose a name for her/himself. It it's found to be a duplicate, then amend the name to be a bit different, or pick a new name.

The problem is, I'm sensitive, and the name Cho makes me really sad (Not your fault!) (Don't ask why). I don't want to leave the Chatterbox, but I also want to be happy… Can I even have both?
I take it you're not using a sad name, so I'd just ignore the name that makes you sad and move on to things that don't make you feel that way.

It's not that simple. You would probably have to be a really good psychologist to make that happen.
