So my roller derby lessons are going well and I'm considering joining the recreational team for the Rose City Rollers here in Portland.
Given that fact, I'm going to need to choose a name. I have to be on the team for 6 months before I get to register it, but I figured, why the hell not pick one now and get used to it?
As I'm not very creative, I thought I'd turn to the cool cats of the DMF to help me choose a badass derby name!
Here's a couple I've thought of now:
Betty Rage
Vivian Pain
Sarah Railin' (or Nailin')
Twin Peaks
See? Pretty blah name wise when I'm competing with the likes of "Twat Rocket" and "Erin Dropapregnant dog"
Let's hear your suggestions!
how about Betty MacIllmake the beast with two backsyouup

[laugh]
Sarah Railin' sounds like the best so far.
Hmm..never had a chance to check out the derby in Austin. I'll have to see if there's a team here in PHX?
There;s teams just about everywhere. Hell even stuffy ole DC has 3!
Hmm, hair looks a bit red in the photo there... how about
The Red Rocket
lizzy board'em
took an axe gave her mother 40 whacks
when she saw what she had done, gave her father 41
Aunt Flo
How about
Hairy Twatter?
Helen Killer.
In greek mythology Alala is the female personification of a war cry.
So I would go with: Alala Banana.
Yell BANANA! right before you elbow someone.
sac
Cleosplatra?
Dionne Wardick?
Felicia O
Connie Lingus
Amanda Spank
Killery Klinton
Cleopapsmear
Annual Wham'o'gram.
Carrie'd AWAY!
Crash Override
Duc N Roll
I guess the hard part in all this is usually a name in roller derby has to coincide with the shtick or style or persona you plan on rolling with out there...
Carry Hooter.
Sister Mary Joseph
she kicked my ass from here to tomorrow as a kid

Ha ha, I can't believe no one has thought of it yet honestly. Or at least registered with it.

I'm on too many drugs to be witty and suggest names but let me say that it is wicked awesome you are doing this, Neenja! I've always thought roller derby was super cool and wanted to join but I've never roller skated :-\

Those are my three..
Betty Rage is a good one - roll (ahem) with it.
Though I liked Boobie McGee too - then you get some theme music.
All right, Betty Rage it is then!!
Hopefully it's still available when I go to register it...
**UPDATE**
I have officially joined a team!! Unfortunately, Bettie Rage is already registered. Betty Rage, however, is not. But in order to have a similar name in this way, I would have to get written permission from Bettie Rage to take her name and spell it different. Even if that were possible (derby girls take their names VERY seriously.) it wouldn't be much fun knowing there was someone else out there with my name. Kinda takes the uniqueness out of it.
Anyway, I went back through this thread and took all my favorite names you guys suggested and added a couple of my own. If you want to vote, I'd be much obliged.
BTW, there's nothing like joining a Roller Derby team to make you realize how out of shape you are. I got my ass HANDED to me at my first practice.
I think Bettie Rage is in the Texas Rollergirls League (flat track) out of Austin, TX But, that was about 6 years ago
Yes, she is. I don't want to try to take her name, even spelling it differently because a derby girl has her name forever. Even retired ones still go by those names.
If you can't have betty rage I say go with Helen of Destroy.
Mainly because it has he word destroy in it. ;D
my wife just suggested Hellena Handbasket
;D
Howabout Titty Kaka. ;D
Kidding. Geesh. I can feel your evil eye glare from here.
