ROYAL NAME IDEAS
The concept of Royality – Why royalty? Why in the world not? We have embraced royal designations and titles as our due! Founders or heads of Chapters may call themselves “Queens” and rule (benevolently, of course) over their Chapters. Every other Member is encouraged to come up with a title for herself (perhaps humorous) incorporating some personal characteristic or interest. Examples: “Duchess of Dog-Walking” for a pet-lover, “Royal Red Snapper” (chapter photographer) or “Empress of Exercise” for a fitness enthusiast. Have fun with it!
It is customary for Hatters to take on a fanciful name to be known as while they are Hatting. It’s a bit of fun and a chance to give yourself a Royal Title. If you are having trouble coming up with your Red Hatting name, here are some suggestions.
Coming Up with a name
A Red Hatting Royal Name generally has two parts – a royal title of some kind, and then a name that is usually somehow descriptive of the person or the position they hold in the chapter. You can include your actual name, or it can be just a whimsical name that doesn’t include your actual name at all. You shouldn’t use the “Queen” or “Vice-Queen” title unless you are the leader or co-leader of a chapter – as that is what those titles refer to. Other royal titles are okay to use though.
So think about what sort of title you would like, and then what words would describe you, or what words you would like to have as your name. Add them together and you get your Red Hatter name!
