View Full Version : Mersona Compromised: How to come up with a new one?

Hey merfriends,

I know I've been off the forum for a bit. My life has been extremely stressful and depressing, and I've struggled with some self-harm and other things. My parents are getting divorced and my mother had to move out, and I just found out a ton of awful stuff that she did over a ten-year span.

Coming right back to mermaids, I was Mermaid Kaitlyn for 4 years here on MerNetwork. Just a few months ago, I came up with the name "Mermaid Whisper" because I had to whisper whenever I was doing "magick" in my room (cue 12-year-old pagan me trying to cast mermaid spells).

I made a website, an Instagram, and a Facebook under the mersona, and I thought it was cute at the time and that it was unique and such. I was excited.

Well, some folks on a makeup board that I was part of linked my face to my mersona and doxxed me. All of my information was sent out through private messages. My mermaid email, my address, and my full name were given out to a few people. Just last month, someone called the police on me and sent them to my house at 2:30 in the morning. I was forced to go to the hospital and have blood tests done. I was made to take off my clothes in front of a nurse to put on my hospital gown. I was absolutely humiliated, and when I asked what the reasoning was, they said it was because the board members had said I was intending to hurt someone or myself. Mind you, I was sleeping when the police got there. Nothing wrong at all. No fresh marks or extra pills or anything.

Anyway, I'd like to change my name a bit and kind of start a new life, since my mermaid email is now becoming a pool of people that hate me. I've received a bunch of emails under Mermaid Whisper that say awful things.

Should I go back to Mermaid Kaitlyn, or do you guys have a better idea for me? Here's some things I like and some info about me:

-Dark hair, blue eyes
-Celtic Green tail with gold accents
-Favorite color is green
-Partly Irish, Scandinavian, and Native American
-Loves the moon
-Loves to sing
-Pagan/witch
-Probably going to get a tail with blue in it

Sorry for the long post. I know it's a lot to read! You guys were my first friends on the Internet, actually, and I always come back here.

Wow you have certainly gone through a lot. I think there isnt anything wrong with wanting to start a new fresh page. Something that isnt attached to memories of things that are rather hurtful.
How about maiden goldmoon?

Wow. I'm shocked it went to that extent. On the brighter side, in terms of names, I think "Celtic" in the name fits the moon, green, and Irish. On the other hand, it might be too common.

I am so sorry you are experiencing so much harshness all at once. What they did to you was extremely uncalled for and unfathomable.

I am sending positive vibes and calm waters your way.

As for names go, what about:

Caitir: Pure, Unsullied, Celtic/Gaelic female. (Similar to Kaitlyn)

Nysa: A new beginning, Greek female*

Thank you both for your replies. I'll be okay eventually. I'm just struggling a little right now.

I still haven't gone for my first swim yet *hangs head in shame*

Nysa is beautiful. I do like that a lot. Thank you for sharing!
