Do you name your klickies?
« on: July 05, 2010, 07:09:23 »
OK, let's be more realistic. I know you people have troops of klickies, this might be hard to give them unique names. What about the special characters in your picture taking and on display? Do they have unique names?? :wave:

Hello Heronimus  :wave:

Absolutely ! Let me introduce you to Mr & Mrs Macclesfield  :love:






I remember giving them the name of "Macclesfield" when I first purchased my Victorian collection back in the summer of 1990 and I sat down one evening looking at a geographic atlas looking for "British" names and "Macclesfield" sounds just perfect to me  :)

I take them with me on my trips around the UK this summer and you can follow their joyous tribulations in the Members News section in the thread "Playmovictorian's Escapades around the UK"...

They will next board the Shakespeare Express with me  8-)

And to develop your question, I also give names to the principal characters of my dioramas. For example, my new diorama "Summer Garden Party on Regent St" will have a Head Gardener Lady called Miss Periwinkle, not to forget the famous actress Sarah Bernhardt and the opera singer Maria Malibran each competing for the limelight  :lol: As far as the Gentlemen are concerned, I have invited Sherlock Holmes, I am still looking for Dr Watson and I will introduce you to a French Gentleman Thief in the name of Arsene Lupin  ;)

Karim :)

I haven't named mine yet but will do so once we have developed more of a relationship  ;)

Karim, do Mr and Mrs Macclesfield have first names?

In photo stories, I have named my Klicky's that are directly in the spot light. I don't name all of them, or talk to them individually though :hmm:! To name Klicky's starring in photo stories gives more of a realistic feel!

I really want to name the key players in my projects......but i am unsure how to name them... On the other hand, i just use a title for some of them, like the Grand Admiral, or the Royal Guard etc...

I usually name klickies for the purposes of a Photostory, but they won't necessarily retain the same name when the story is finished. That may change now I have more indoor and outdoor space to develop different themes and worlds for the klickies in that theme. e.g. for two moderately-sized themes (Western and Adventure) in my collection, I'm dreaming up stories and scripts and the characters may well retain the same identities for further stories.

I'm curious Karim as to which set Mr J Macclesfield is from (or is he a custom)
