Everyone's title should be according to what type of person they are instead of Mr., Mrs. or Ms. These names should be choosen by the people that know you best.

For Example: if a person named Richard tended to be Honest, Honest Richard it is. Or a very outspoken person named Pam would have a salutation of Opinionated Pam.

I guess the only problem is there would need to be some type of verfication system.

       If Frank talked a lot, but Gabby talked truthfully, you could have Gabby Frank and Frank Gabby... Or how about Earnest Christian and Christian Ernest? I like it.

       you could just use the (somewhat archaic sounding) practice of fitting a title to a situaton or relationship..
'Friend Joseph'
'Good Steve'
etc.

       But, being a minor schizo, i am way too many thing to name...could i have alternating names i announce to my friends?
"Hi guys, today I'm Loud Igirl."
or "Hi guys, today I'm Psycho Hillbilly Igirl!"

       Rather than the names being DEscriptive, I think they should be PREscriptive. Know someone talkative? Call her Quiet Nancy. Know a real blowhard? Name him Humble Harry. With any luck, the name will modify the behavior.
