Ashlynn Shade embracing her new nickname

[Dogstar]

YeeHaw....unique I thk the crowd would get into yelling this after her made shots...LoL.

 

[Bigboote]

It would be even better if everyone did the fist-pump too!

 

[RockyMTblue2]

EEE GAD when did this happen! She's not a cattle roper.

 

[leepaul]

If it helps her hit 3's- cool.

But, for me, still nothing better than "Bam-Bam"- Gino said Stacy thought she was playing football for the Oklahoma Sooners. -)

 

[ConnecticutBB]

Am I missing something???
What is her new nickname?

YeeHaw

 

[Pharos]

That's awful. Her name is Ashlynn. Better two-syllable thing to say. Never liked "Stewie" either. Breanna is what her parents named her. Peoples' names were chosen carefully by parents.
Maya was Maya. For me Diana was/is always Diana. Rebecca is Rebecca. Etc...

I think of Ashlyn as “Ash”. No confusion that I’m aware of. I might be mistaken but I think “Ash” is used by teammates and staff.

True I do tht everytime one of the Huskies ( men and women) hit a 3

What do they call her when they need her to set a screen or switch coverage on defense? Doubtful it's YeeHaw.

 

[WLT1717]

Still calling her “Slim”

Will the staid CT fans embrace it? It took at least a decade to get UConn UConn UConn out of them reliably.

This is one staid UConn fan who won't embrace it. I'll call her Ashlynn.

 

[Gus Mahler]

Two syllables and hard to shorten. "Ye" is taken.

 

[HopJim]

I will always refer to her as "Ash." "Yee Haw" sounds cute but not a name you would want from a future career point of view.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

It works for me too @HopJim

Well aren't we

 

[DEFCONN1]

Don’t like it. I’ll stick with Ash.

 

[cohenzone]

Bcus of her love of country music

She must hate the movie Mars Attacks where in onr of the funniest ideas in movie history, country music kills the invading Martians by making their heads explode.
