    I believe that you can write whichever name in the card that you'd like. I'm pretty sure that I got some last year that had the real name, some that had the username, and some that had both. Jacquie just needs your real name for the address, but even then you could probably say J. Smith instead of John Smith. (Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong about that Jacquie)

    I'm not a great writer of words. Most people I sent cards to last year just got my name. Those members who I've become internet friends with got something a little more personal.

    Thanks for helping here Meg :)

    I do need a 'real' name for mailing purposes. I can only assume that last year everyone gave me their real names. I think over the course of time a lot of board members do know the real names of others here. If you aren't comfortable with giving us your real name then yes you could use a 'J Smith'. Just make sure it's something that the postman will not have trouble delivering.

    Jacquie and Meg

    I don't mind sending my real name, and put it on that address list. So I can actually write my full name. I was just wondering which name I would write in the cards which I am gonna send to people (my real name or username here). Not the name which is written on the address list. I think you did misunderstand me there.

    Anyway, I have got a great answer. So thanks for the help

    Good grief - that's come around quickly!

    Loved doing it the last couple of years. Count me in again.

    Nat, if the strike carries on, I'll just drop yours off on the way to work :lol:

    I'll be joining in too. I love getting cards! And I might just hand draw a few that I send. That's not to say that they'll all be works of art. They'll probably contain mostly stick figures. I may even let my son scribble on a few!

    send me a pm with your name and address. Make sure you use your real life name in case your postman doesn't know who heartcore is :lol: when you send me the pm put in the title Holiday Card Swap 2009. I hope this helps :)

    ^ Now I'm curious of what you sent :p

    Okay, so count me in too! But I probably won't send a card to everyone because I really don't have the time to write a lot of cards. :p
