Name Jumble - writercize #56

It was a long, late night of writing for a freelance gig last night, so today I'm taking it easy on the writing front.  Who's up for a little word play?

writing exercise:  Using your last name, jumble the letters to find as many words as you can in a couple of minutes.  If your last name is short or you're up for more of a challenge, throw in your first and/or middle name as well!

  3. Congratulations and wow, that's a lot of words. With my last name, I wouldn't know where to begin with having V and W in my last name. But sounds like a fun challenge!

  5. Thanks Olaina - it was for TBR.

    Dawn and Alma - isn't it amazing how many words can come out of it? Both of your last names are relatively short and you still got so many words out of it!!

    Title Loans - ooo - V and W - sounds like a tough Scrabble round. ;)
