Desire 1: To be powerful/dynamic and overall, of similar "richness" to those around me
conflicts with
Desire 2: To be small and inoffensive and generally never bother, upset, or annoy anyone

Genuine license plate seen by me today: I♥CHAOS. However, given the appearance of the person rummaging around in the SUV that it was on, I doubt that they meant the same thing by it as would most people I know.

In the comments on this post, someone suggests that a glamourbomb be attributed to a hypothetical faerie named "Puckraven Wooltangler". This reminds me of some of the names in the Changeling: the Dreaming book, such as "Runcible Shaw", the Pooka from whom they get supposed opinions on other kiths, and of names of fairies that appear in the Fairy Calendar, such as "Tiger-Get-By".
That is the sort of name I want to have, although perhaps not quite as silly as "GooseberryHumple". It obviously is suited for use in otherkin fora. In ordinary magical ones or ones pertaining to other interests (e.g. rec.arts.tv.mst3k.misc) it would come across as merely quirky, and not utterly mismatched. And of course it's well unique and doesn't sound like any other names out there, which is a kind of sparkling quality in itself as well as averting any mixups of identity or looking like I was trying to copy anyone.
Coming up with such a name, on the other hand....
