[QUOTE="Algolei, post: 2073976, member: 1073"] Group names are fun. I like using them. But apparently you need to be a special kind of snowflake to use them properly. Let's see, there was: [b]"We are X." Draws a cross in the dirt with his big toe. "We mark the spot."[/b] I've also done: [b]"We're the Five*"--holds up his five fingers, wiggling his ring finger--"I'm this one."[/b] There were more, but those are the best. My nephews tried to come up with group names. They would each write a word in secret on a slip of paper, then gather them together and read them aloud. It never worked. The best group name they ever came up with that way was [b]The Yellow Faeries[/b] (they were all elves). (Yes, one of them wrote "The" on his piece of paper. :D ) *This was back in '81-'84. The group was called [b]the Five[/b] because (*gasp!*) there were five of them. We were so clever.... [/QUOTE]
