Have you ever lied about what your name was?

My friend and I use to go out a lot years ago. And we would commanly tell people our names were Gertrude and Olga. Now who would believe this, surprising a lot.

In real life my sister and I used to do that a lot, I was Rainbow and she was Sunshine, we looked like hippies so we thought it was funny. We mostly did it if some gross dude was hitting on us (we look like twins which guys think is hot) so he wouldn't know our real names.

I used to lie my name to pesky strangers, who tried to get 'friendly' with me! I even told one of them that am Rumpelstiltskin! :D lol

Yes, I always lied about my name when I was younger. I would never give my correct name to anybody when I was going to clubs (in my younger days). I also lied about my phone number as it was the quickest way to get rid of somebody that I never wanted to see or hear from again.

LOL! My sister and our cousin, who both have long blonde hair, used to go out to the bars and effect a Scandinavian accent and tell guys that their names "vere Inga and Elsa, two sistas vrom Sveden". God, it was hilarious and the guys fell for it everytime!
