Your Old Republican Name `

I'm Melvyn C.H. Little.

I'm Corpus Christie Steenburgen!

Please welcome to the stage: NAPIER CHANNING

Magnolia Hepburn. I like it.

Castleway Ann Warren

Lawrence Hawn

Vanderbilt Douglas

Stuyvesant Richardson.

Prior Umeki or Prior Lange? As a good Republican it would have to be Prior Lange.

No wait, Lawrence Miles. Gotta reference Sylvia!

I'm Stalnaker Van Fleet

O’Neill York.

What a fantastic and stuffy name, young Master York was wearing seersucker pants from Brooks Brothers by age 12.

Sturgis York.

Reuter Bancroft.

Boring, but extremely wealthy.

I'm Baxter Dukakis!

Vernon Ives

Mcdonald Hunter.

We just returned from the morning pheasant hunt. I'll be drinking the remainder of the day.

Rubelmann Quinn

Mayflower Kedrova

I'm Quad Hackman! Has a manly ring to it.

Similar to r19, my name is St John Gardenia. I’m the senior senator for South Carolina.

College in the Woods Minnelli.

Briscoe von Stroheim, I rather like it.

Hitchcock Young is the most Republican one.

Stoughton Hiller

although Hitchcock Blondell has a better rhythm

Grape Clits

Darroch Jones

Holder Balsam. The Jewish is on my father's side, so I'm still technically a gentile.

I’m Sharp Meredith

I’m torn between Rutherford Parker and Rutherford Van Fleet.

[quote] Your Old Republican Name is your Freshman college dorm (or your house)

Your house? Do you mean your street?

I'm Ryerson Ritter. I'm alliterative!

And what is an “old republican?” This game makes no sense.

Mather McCarthy

I love that this game requires you to not only have attended college, but to have been an on campus resident.

I changed dorms during my freshman year, so I'm either:

Wells Cooper

or

Clement Moorehead

Bryan Massey

Patton McGovern

Hansee Grant

I'm Hurst Garland.

How do you do?

I’m Elwell Reed. So there!

Hashinger Leachman. But you can call me Bunny.

Smoki Bacon.

Ramsey Trevor -- Although I prefer it reversed: Trevor Ramsey sounds like he'd be smoking a pipe in front of the fireplace while getting blown.

Shall I be Keynes Tandy, or Barwell Ladd?

Barwell went further in life, I feel. She’s probably double-barrelled, titled, and/or an heiress, by now, spending her days in wealthy rural lesbian bliss like another Vita Sackville-West. Keynes however went slumming, I imagine, and flirted with political sedition when she fell for an anarchistic man, then tried to shape up all too late thinking she could pull a Prince Hal, only for her wicked family to cut her off.

Well, Barbara Walters' old Republican name *is* Barbara Walters. But for the sake of the game and using the first supporting actress winner, hers would be Titsworth Sondergaard.

Clark Channing or Clark Parsons - both sound old money-ish.

Mayflower Kedrova is an outstanding drag name! Where are you performing next? Do you have a website yet?

Manor Kedrova

Bingham Holloway.

I’m Senator Hedrick Houseman. I am for guns and against coloreds.

Well, bitches, one of the choices for me would allow me to retain my actual surname!

Tower Bridges

John Jay Young or John Jay Hawn.

My friend's would be Wigglesworth Robertson.

Dickinson Parsons

or

Dickinson Kennedy

Sunfield Matthau

Hawthorne Redgrave

Sage Duvall

Amethyst Graham, hanging off my "daddy's" arm, dripping in jewels, in Texas.

Bet that Sage Duvall ate out Amethyst Graham many a time at Varsity interschool events.

R60 Why pardon me, Mizz Graham, but are you a relation of the South Carolina Grahams by any chance?

R60 - did you graduate from a drug recovery program?

Randall Lemon. Just a little Jewish.

Lemmon^

Chouinard Blakely

Manor Ustinov

R49. My next tour takes me to Johnstown and Erie,PA Ashtabula and Lima OH and then to Decatur, IL

R68 - I always thought Ashtabula was a good first name for drag.

R44 You died last year.

I'm Hamlin Cortese. I'm half-Italian so I prove the GOP is "diverse." Rumor has it they only let Dad into the country club after he promised to pay for a new golf course.

[quote]Chouinard Blakely

From New Orleans, perhaps?

Sproul Cortese

Vincent Ives here…

Tower Chandler

I misread the instructions - you can use any Best Actor or Actress nominee, not just the winner. Let me play this again then...

John Jay Smith.

And my friend's new name is Wigglesworth Bates.

I actually transferred dorms a couple of weeks in - so I could also use Carmen Minelli, although that doesn't sound very Republican or WASPy.

Strong Albertson

I'm Gryffindor Privet!

I was newly in the Navy when most of you were college freshmen, so I'll use the name of my ship:

America Ustinov

America Ustinov, one of the "intellectual" Republicans, writes for Bill Buckley. We've had him to the club you know.

America Ustinov, one of the "intellectual" Republicans, writes for Bill Buckley. We've had him to the club you know.

McMurrich Marchmount - you see I have "rich" in my name but unfortunately it's pronounced "rick". I also have "mount" but that's another story.

I'm loaded with money not like most of those Deplorables. Who let the riff-raff into the Grand Ole' Party?

[quote] I could also use Carmen Minelli, although that doesn't sound very Republican or WASPy.

Carmen is one of the cousins we don't talk about.

Witham McGovern

McCarthy Jagger here.

Halliday Reed.

PERFECT!

Call me Major Reed.

Edmund Arrowsmith Rutherford.

[quote]I misread the instructions - you can use any Best Actor or Actress nominee, not just the winner.

SUPPORTING, not Best Actor/Actress.

Holy Cross Duke

Clark Bergman

Myles Standish Moorehead

Top that!

Or, I could be Shelley’s younger, thinner sister.

Stella Winters works in the typing pool.

Far Side Heckart.

Holden Perkins

Hastings De Havilland.

Bluxom Brandauer

We should make him change it to that, since he is, in fact, an old Republican.

Harmony Hiller

Umust Bkidding

Elkins Evans!

Cecil Templeton

Bienville Jackson

Um, if it counts that I, like, dropped out, then, um, Hamilton Bening? Wow, so cute. I think I went to pre-K with a kid called that.

Anyway, I hAvE to gO now :/

Beware. This is a data-mining trick.

Tolley Quinn

R121 thanks ever so for shutting the gate, when the horse has already bolted.

Weinstein Hawn

Yes, r121. Data mining from anonymous posters is very dangerous.

R125, the anonymous part becomes less when you ask seemingly innocuous questions in multiple threads.

R121 is correct.

Well, I can only say that I'm enjoying seeing some of the places my fellow DLers went to college (not hard to figure out in most cases) and how old they are. Many of my exact contemporaries! But no one else in my dorm.

Founders Fricker

[quote]Beware. This is a data-mining trick.

Luckily, I'm a habitual liar.

Sean Neilson

East Streep

Rhodes Ustinov

My name is Mertz Landau, and I’m a mean son of a bitch!

Founders Fricker sounds like an old Quaker name. I'll allow. Philadelphia mainline or Bucks County blueblood, attended Brown but settled in Princeton to commute to a writing job in New York. Libertarian-leaning Old Republican. "That government which governs best governs least and all that". Sometime clerk of the Princeton Friends Meeting. "Got to give back, you know. "

Watson Henry Winkler

Le Poose Kellyanne

Nielson Connery

This came originally from Patton Oswald's twitter, so blame him for data mining. Maybe he wants to swap our IDs for fentanyl patches.

Mary Ward Straight!!!

My name is Benedict Whitmore. How do you do?

[quote] This came originally from Patton Oswald's twitter, so blame him for data mining. Maybe he wants to swap our IDs for fentanyl patches.

Or for an extension to his yard with a new and better shovel thrown in, for when he decides to bury Meredith Salenger next to Wife#1.

R141 Is it true he killed his wife because she figured out he was the Golden State Killer and then planted in her research information to frame someone else?

Waveney Van Fleet.

My dorm didn't have a name you useless cunt OP

Lowell Winters

I condole you, R147.

McVinney Scofield

[quote]My dorm didn't have a name

How did you tell people where you lived? Even 700 Comm Ave counted as a name.

If you didn't partake in tertiary education, it works with street names (when you were university age) too!

It works for school houses as well;

For both colour: White Woodard (Majority Caucus Secretary for George State Legislator)

and name: Grossman Irving (Macon County Chief Financial Officer - he caused a minor scandal refusing White Woodard's wife's world famous potato salad with candied bacon at the annual GOP picnic)

Grossman Irving, however, was born Irving Grossman to Jennie (née Rosenfeld) and Moshe Grossman, a garment worker. He was raised in New York City and attended Brooklyn College, majoring in accounting, before taking a job with a firm in the South and changing his name. Never acquired a taste for bacon, though, candied or otherwise. He's old, but not Republican.

Hudson Duke

Sterling Massey

Holder Redgrave. You know, that has a ring to it. What does one have to do to change one's name legally?

I mean, if that drunk English guy could change his name to Celine Dion while on a bender (and didn't even remember having done it until his new papers arrived), it can't be that hard, can it?

I want to be called Loretta.
