Just thought about a bad pun for your letters routine; You could tell the kids you're being Alf-abetical

Reading some of the other replies I have to wonder...

Outside of this forum does anyone know you as Alfred Borden?

I had previously assumed that it was just a forum handle, a tribute to the character from the (frankly fantastic) movie The Prestige. As such I figured any stage names based on a real name should have what I assume is your real name, Dean, as the root.

Am I wrong?

I always assumed people realised the name Alfred Borden was just my forum handle, which I do only use for this forum - although an ex did get in touch after years just to tell me that character WAS me, way he spoke, looked etc

So I would prefer something to do with my real name, Dean

Ace - I really like being the "Dean of" but again something as clever could be lost on children?!

I don't understand how the rest of us were supposed to know you were called Dean when you've been calling yourself Alfred for ages.


Kean Dean
Dean Clean
Dynamic Dean
Daring Dean
Demon Dean
Dean Demon
Dean Dabbling-In-Magic
Dean Dabbler
Dean Deeeeeeeeeeeeean

Hope that helps.

My grandparents on my Dad's side were called Pearl and Dean; I used to call them Nana and Grandpapapapapapapapapapapa

What's your character for the kiddies?
Is it "Deano the clown" or "Dean the Machine"

I think "Dean Dean" is a winner! Like the road runner... (but with "dean".... (I'll be over there....)...)
