New Media Power Couples
by on February 21st, 2007
Rudy and I have talked before about video blogging couples like us, Zadi & Steve and Amanda & Mario, but it wasn’t until Rudy and I were talking the other night about Hollywood power couples like TomKat, Brangelina and Bennifer… did we realized that we were all power couples of the new Hollywood.
It was then that Rudy felt it was important to give ourselves a Portmanteau. This spawned a whole list of hilarious blends such as:
Rudy & Casey:
- Rasey (My personal favorite)
- Rusey
- Cadey
- Cudy
Zadi & Steve:
- Stadi
- Stedi (Pronounced “Steedie” – My personal favorite)
- Zave
- Zeve
Amanda & Mario
- Amario
- Amandio
- Maranda (My personal favorite)
- Marianda
Now my mind is wandering… Jay and Ryanne (or Jyan?), Lan and Bonnie (or Lonnie?), Steve and Carol (or Starol?)… the possibilities are an endless source of hilarity.
Hmmmm…
McChan? Jachinnon?
Woolz? Dialf?
Condi? Librongdon? (sounds like a drug)
Careve? (sounds like “Kareem”)
Joe- Librongdon! That’s ingenious!
Dilf sounds good for us.
We can all have combo first and last names… Rasey Jachinnon, Stedi Dilf, Maranda Librongdon… oh the possibilities!
you didn’t mention c + rud = crud ;)
just kidding :) you still go by kitka at all? i miss that.
Rasey sounds like how Scooby Doo would pronounce Casey. Ahh, Scooby Doo — where are you?
Lucas- Oh trust me… Rudy and I have been talking about that and now he wants to do a Scooby Doo parody ;)
I thought of Crud too!
My wife is called Gail.
So we have Jail Games?
I’m a fan of “Woolz” personally.
When my husband and I got married, we merged our last names for real…his last name, Lynch, wasn’t a “strong candidate for hyphenation,” shall we say (sounds like a verb!). So we took three letters from his last name and three letters from mine (Larsen) and made Lynsen. (Does that make us a power couple?)
I vote for Marmando, Stevadiolf, and Cajahkimchan.
BTW, Rae and I, the world’s most elusive vlogcoupling, are of course the mythical Rachimotharshia. With an accent over the last “i”.
Oh, one more: LanBonBuizina.
And I’m out.
Hm, would also submit: Stadiazolf.
I need a vlogging partner :(
*sniff*
Me and you Micki. We be the new power couple. Do long distance relationships still work these days?
Don’t worry, Micki… you’ve got enough charisma to be a stand alone vlog mogul! That said, I’m sure you’ll find someone we’ll all be jealous of soon ;)
