Name on magic bands

Ricky_Spanish · 22 Jun 19, 11:26 AM

I've been reviewing our magic band order and due to issues have yet to put it through. For name I was going with first name & last name initial.

I now realise some rides say your based on the magic band, so it would be silly if it said as above.

Should I just put our first names down?

We�ve had alsorts on ours, we�ve been dopey , grumpy happy , sleepy and bashful , we�ve also been the lion king cast. First time we went the kids had their football clubs on them .
Chose whatever you want on it

We always have something fun too - favourite characters, dwarves, characters from Beauty and the Beast and Frozen. Trying to decide our theme for this year still!

We rarely use our real names, last year I was sorcerer my son was tweedle (his nickname is tweedle Dee) we�ve also been Huey, Dewey & Louie 😂

I don't understand the bolded sentence, what would be silly?

We use our first names, I thought about nicknames for this time but didn't in the end.

We tend to use our first name with the year. DH also had his age one year as we went for his Birthday and at Xmas we all had our names with Xmas after them. This year it'll probably be back to name then 19 for the year.

Hi, if you are referring to rides like small world where they have your name on the screens at the end they take you name from MDE account rather than the one you have put on the band, I have seen my name come up on ride displays but never use it as the name engraved on the inside of my magic band. Sorry if I�ve misinterpreted what you were saying though. 🙂

the name at the back of the band is more of an easy way to tell who the band belongs to in case you have more than one person having the same color

actually, eveyone in our house has at least one magic band of each color, from many trips ... glad the name's at the back.
I think that's basically what it is for. As for the rides, they will take your name from MDX , not from the back of the band.
