You should definately go with "Master Big Dick". Don't under estimate the power of advertising!!!

Seriously, you should put what you feel most comfortable with. I have always put my name on the name tag, because it is a "name" tag. I've never been a fan of people demanding that others call them by some self-assigned title and putting a title on a name tag is heading in that direction (Can't you read, it says "Master so-and-so"). If the title has been earned or awarded by some generally recognized authority, then I'll call people by it. I'll be polite to everyone and show respect where it is due. But if someone demands that I call them "Master" in the Master/slave context all they will get is their feelings hurt and a lecture about how I didn't consent to be their slave. Just my $0.02.

Thanks for the responses everyone. This has been a big help and we've decided to go with just our first names for this go-round (for both of us).

earthycouple: hope to see you there

M and I get around it by not wearing name tags, generally. I don't like cleaning sticky stuff off of my leather.
But if I have to choose a name for a tag, I go with either Ms. Elorin or Elorin. Ms. Elorin tends to indicate my primarily dominant nature without being "titly" - and I have a divorce decree to prove I earned the "Ms". It confuses people in from out of town because I wear the name Elorin but at least half of the people call me Robyn (my given name). M has always gone with Matt if a name tag is required.
