Table names - what are you having?

Just wondering what people are having as their table names? Or even if you're having names at all? So far lots of the decisions have been down to me, my OH has agreed to them all but I chose the colour scheme and things like that.

Just wondering what people are having as their table names? Or even if you're having names at all? So far lots of the decisions have been down to me, my OH has agreed to them all but I chose the colour scheme and things like that. I'm considering telling him to choose the table names and letting him have something a bit more manly, maybe his favourite films (probably all be different Star Wars ones!) or computer games or something. Can't decide if that'd be fun or just silly though,

    I like the sweets idea!

    We had considered different cocktails - I like to dabble with mixology, so would be quite a good theme that my friends would appreciate

    Now we've got an Alice theme, we are either going to do playing card tables - Ace to King of hearts or, as we are having 12 tables (I *think*) OH would like to do hours of the day, ideally with each person sat at a time within the hour, e.g. 12.15 or 10.30, so we can assign people a time as opposed to a place setting Smiley smile

    Locations in New York, as that's our theme.

    think we're having; Empire state building, Broadway, Times Square, Brooklyn Bridge, Statue of Liberty and our table will be Rockefeller Tree as that's where we got engaged Smiley winking

    Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (top table)

    The Good, The Bad and The Queen (mates, Boy's family and our one remaining Queen grandmother, all from Yorkshire)

    We Are Scientists (Boy's science mates from various institutions)

    Super Furry Animals (leftovers from boy's science mates, my science girls and mutual university friends, all Welsh and rugby fans)

    Love Cats (my cool indie ish mates and cousins)

    Immigrant (S)ong (the really contrived name that didn't quite fit; all my Irish family, mostly immigrants to the UK).

    So bands or song titles that allude to appropriate collectives!

    bridesmaids = pretty women so will walk into the cremony to the theme tune pretty women walking down the street....

    one for me & OH walking back out as man and wife and a couple when signing the registar etc

    our first dance is Faith Hill There you'll be so top table is Pearl Harbour my all time favourite film.

    got to make a list of chick flicks the theme songs and see what can fit into the day (10 tables to find names for)

    Different fantasy classes ... what? Okay I'll explain, we play A LOT of fantasy games, board games, table top games and video games. So going with the theme they'll be:

    Knight, wizard, archer (or ranger), Cleric, druid, Mage, rogue (or thief)

    This is one of the numerous ideas being thrown around at the time. Our ideas change with the winds, come from being an pair of artists! whatever we decide I'll be drawing it, he'll be creating it.

    My FH is really into genealogy, so our table names will be the places where we and our ancestors got married, the top table being us. We're thinking about whether it's practical to have a short bio with each- e.g. John Smith and Jane Jones got married in Exampleville on 2 January 1985 and a wedding photo.

    We are hoping to have our favourite geeky tv shows/games/graphic novels/films. E.g. Batman, Star Wars, Final Fantasy, Dr Who, The Walking Dead

    The only problem is we have huge arguments over which should be our top table!
