Roller Derby (and name help?)

[LalaLeaP]

Who plays Roller Derby? or Loves to watch it? Or wants to get involved?

I'm on a League in Houston. Texas City to be exact. This is my 3rd month involved and I love every minute of it. I actually have scrimmage tonight. I'm so excited. My first game is May 7th >=D

I actually need help finalizing my Derby Name D: I wore these fantastic ankle high purple and white skates the first month and a half of boot camp so now they call me Barbie! They've told me there's not changing my name now, and I just have to find a good derby name with Barbie in it.
So I need help :'D

Someone suggest Barbie-wire
Or something along the line of Barbie X
but I'm not sure

Also, I thought you were going with Barbie Cat or Kitty or some variation of that?

It is hard to work with v.v
But they called me that from the beginning. I was going to pick something like Spiderella, but yeah
I was thinking Barbie Biter or Blister Barbie, >.>

But yeah, I have to work on my skating skills as well. I fall far too often

I'm a really good skater I just need to work on the more technical skills like dodging and skating backwards.
What position do you play? I'm a jammer and I go by the name Prince Harming

We tend to switch around positions, not play just one
They told me I would be jamming a lot, put as a new member I play position 1 block for the time being

I'm pretty sure I would suck as a blocker especially in mens derby. Im much smaller than most of them.

Lol, I'm not doing so hot as a blocker. We scrimmage every Wednesday night, and as fresh meat, they pick on me a lot. I'm not exactly big either, so I get knocked pretty easily as well

so what kind of skates do you use?
I'm about to buy myself a new pair of vanilla brass knuckles with some really good plates and wheels

What ever you choose just make sure you check the international rollergirls' master roster to see that it's not already taken. You also should avoid choosing a name that has a high degree of similarity with another girls name. Ideally you want no similarities or only "low" similarity. You might get away with "medium" but if a name comes up with a high degree of similarity you're better off choosing something else. When you start plugging names in you'll find that most obvious word-play type names are already taken. Barbie-Q for example is already taken.

I'm still kind of searching for a name but as I'm in the process of moving and finding a new league I'm not in a hurry.
