New Name - but I'm still Dan!

[Scallops]

Folks - I have reverted to my paternal birth surname......My name is again, Daniel Aaron Dienes (it's Hungarian). It is pronounced DNS.

[Scallops]

Don't be scared to say hello and acknowledge it!

[extreme]

You'll always be Dan to us ... um which personality are you today

[sheerluck]

I saw the Hungarian bit, and was going to make an "Open All Hours" style crack, but resisted.

(Did that show make it over here?)

Just fancied a change Dan?

[Killer]

Hello Dan.

Cheers, Mick.

[Chops]

Well "Hello" there young Dan

[rick130]

You'll always be Dan to us ... um which personality are you today

Hahaha, 'The United States of Dan'........


Oh, Hi Dan !

[incisor]

are you conjugated, non conjugated or cumulated?

welcome ....

[Scallops]

I'm none of those....Clearly I could call myself moon unit and I would still have my essence....what I have done over the past few years is reconnect with my paternal family....it then became apparent that I was a whole lot more Dienes than Mack....so I have returned to the name I had from birth to 10 years of age.

....When one hears one's name, that name should invoke who one is....I have simply exercised the power of naming, and I feel whole again....And quite surprisingly I think, I do feel completely different...in a positive way.

I'd like to tell you Kev, which personality I am today, but the one that knows won't tell me. I'd like to comment on "Open All Hours", but I don't watch TV.

I posted here on AULRO because one thing I need to do now is get this information out as widely as I can, so thanks for reading my story.

Nicely said Dan, pretty much exactly what a couple of others I know have said when doing the same thing.

More power to you.
