Official Fan Name VOTE NOW!Sorry, if yours isn't on the list, it wouldn't let me fit all the sugestions on, so I chose the ones I thought were best.
On the Uplands one, I got it wrong so it's, Uplands of the Upper Uplands

It's been discussed over and over on various forums and it's basically been decided that we can't have one because no one can agree on one.
Shizkids, Greenies, Wickedees, and Munchkins all sound somewhat demeaning. Anything that has to do with a song tends to be long - Dancers Through Life, Defyers of Gravity/Gravity Defyers, No Good Deed Doers, etc. Populars... erm... just no. I think the best bets are Winkies or Ozians, personally.

I like No Good Deed Doers.

Something short.
I'm in favor for Ozians.
But think of RENT - they are RENTheads - short and simple. "No Good Deed Doers??"
I think not.

I also favor Ozians, though that covers the general Oz fandom as well...

Not those girls 
heh no, i like ozians

Heh I always liked ShizKids. Ozians is nice too though. I don't mind either way.
The only problem that I have with Ozians is that most of them believed Elphaba was evil because their government (the wizard) told them so. The fact that they were all blind and all conformed with one another. If one believed they should jump off a bridge, they all believed they should jump off a bridge. That kind of bugs me. But other than that, I wouldn't really care.
Though, ShizKids can be argued about also...but I like the way it sounds

Oh can we please be winkies?? That would be hilarious!!
Or else, Shizkids is good too.

I think Dancers Through Life is adorable.

I like Ozians personally... but my mother once called me, after seeing the show with me, an Elphabrat.
I sorta like it... Thoughts?

Ok, now wicked_boy and wickedboy are just getting me confused. The usernames are just too close! Haha.
Anyway, I'm up for Winkies. Just sounds so fun 
|
music is my life!!!
|
what about shizkids, hmmm?
|
Elfie Lou
|
I like shizkids, Winkies doesn't sound right.
|
Angel-of-Music*
|
winkies sounds fun 
|
wicked_boy

We all like Shizkids, Winkies and Ozians.
But I think the later too can be any Oz fan. Do we want something "Wickedy" or "Ozzy"?
I thought, maybe we could give it untill 8 o'clock tommorow night (English time) and then, I will put all the suggestions into a poll and people can vote from there.

Sounds cool
Can we make avartars with the name on, please.

Whatever

yeah, but wicked based is in oz so it doesn't really matter which one it is.

Shizkids is often a term given to crazy people who dress up and go to the stagedoor and scare people. It's used in a negative way, so I think it would be sad for us to use it.
|

Lol. I actually made up Shizkids .

Really? I dunno, I've heard it floating around for ages, and not just on thsi forum
hmm
OK, all in favour of Ozians? Shizkids sounds too offensive
|
Angel-of-Music*
|
WINKIES!
|
Baker
|
Shizkids is from all over the place. You might have thought of it, but someone else thought of it first. 
Winkies sounds better for Wicked, in my opinion. Ozians is cool but it's really, really universal Oz.
|
*BroadwayLights*
|
I like Ozians best. Also I like "Wickies" 
|
phantomphan85
|
What about the "Wickedeers"
|
elphclaudia
|
We had this discussion on my old Wicked forum (it's closed).
We came up with three different ones, Ozians, Shizkids and Wizomaniac.
Oh and elphabrat is for one Wicked fan.

How about Galindafied? (spl?). As in- I am Galindafied!
I also like Winikies!
|
Boonedaba1991

i say shzians or the emerald audiance.
|

galindafied doesnt work for plural people tho
|

I really like Wickies or Wizomaniacs ,but wizomaniacs were fans of the wizard so it is kind of offensive so i like Wickies more! I also think it should be more wickedy than ozzy!  i also like wickedeers!
|
music is my life!!!
|
we could have different levels like on mdn, there's fresh face,young hoofer etc
if we did this we could use all the names and not disappoint anyone
|
Baker
|
I also think we need to be careful - Wickies sounds like it's related to Wicca, and that's certainly not the impression we're going for. Winkies is close too.
I'll throw Wickedites out there too.
|
Angel-of-Music*
|
how is liking the wizard offensive?
|
Baker
|
I don't think she means offensive so much as cheering on our antagonist.
|
Angel-of-Music*
|
ah, that makes sense.
personally i like winkies. its funnny
|
Baker
|
And if we're going to use this Uplands stuff, can we at least get the term right - Uplands of the Upper Uplands.

Crap! I just copied and pasted, I should proof read the stuff I post.

So far Ozians is winning.
|
musicalmaniac396
|
I voted for Wickedites! I don't think we should be Ozians because A) its not just Wicked, its Wizard of Oz! and B) it supports the Wizard because Ozians supported the Wizard in the play and the Wizard was evil [I think I made my point with B, for all major fans of Wicked ] I don't think the Wizard should be supported!
|
Catherine
|
Wickiedites, methinks =]
|
wicked_boy
|
Looking good, I'll close the poll in 7 days, so tell all the others on the board who also like Wicked.
|
musicalmaniac396
|
I'm sorry to all fans of the Wizard, but DON"T support the Wizard! He is evil!
|

Just thought I'd remind you all that Ozians are what Wizard Of Oz fans are called, plain and simple. So if you're looking for something ORIGINAL to Wicked, that probably wouldn't be best. I think Shizkids would be best for the unique Wicked fanname, myself...
|
wicked_boy
|
Ozians seem to be winning, so if you are a WOO fan and a Wicked fan, call youself an Ozian, but if you are just Wicked, call yourself whatever wins that is more specific to Wicked.
|

Votes from no will not be accepted!
The official name for any Wizard of Oz / Wicked lover is Ozians
The official name for a Wicked fan is Wickedite.
I love Wizard of Oz as well, but I'm a Shizkid because I prefer Wicked.
I'm a Wickedite!
|
What Is This Feeling?
|
thats kool. I voted for Shizians. But I will officiallly call myselfd an Ozian.
|
Elfie Lou
|
Hmm...Ozian or Wickedite.
I think I'll be an Ozian
|
musicalmaniac396
|
I will be a Wickedite!
