What do you guys or what should you call yourselves? I mean, what would be a great term for our little community of fans? Fans of NIMH, Brisbyphiles, or what?

I have a term for anybody who likes Don Bluth movies in general.

"Bluthonians"

Heh, that is very lame but things grow over time don't they :wink:

That's actually what we usually call ourselves at the NIMH MFM meet. We're known by some of the staff as the "NIMH Nuts" which I think was pioneered by Gabriel? He's the first one I ever heard use it, anyway.

NIMHPHOS( )


Umm, i'd stay away from 'NIMHphos' because it sounds way too much like 'nympho', slang stort for 'Nymphomaniac', which is really not a good thing.

In all honesty, though, why can't we just be 'Fans of The Secret of NIMH' or just 'NIMH fans'?

I think that NIMHphos was intended to sound like nympho. I also doubt either suggestion was intended to be an actual contender for 'best' name.

I have been, and will continue to use 'NIMH Nuts' personally. ;)

I think the point of a 'fan community' name, is more intended to put a easy 'label' to the group of fans, not insult the group. I would consider 'NIMH Rod' to be an insulting term. At least given from the word it is derived from, according to the dictionary.

For those unfamiliar with the term 'nimrod' ou can see it's dictionary entry HERE[=http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=nimrod]HERE

How about NimhKids or Nimhchildren. Most of us were smaller when we saw SoN and almost all of us have been inspired by it in some way. If all else fails Im liking just plain Nimhfan.

Only problem I see there, is that sure, a lot of us might have NIMH memories from our childhood, but a lot of the fans, at least ones I know, are primarily adults, or getting to the age of being considered more adult than 'kid.'?

Not all of us where childern when we first saw it, in 1984 I was 25 years old, and was hoplessly lost in this classic, changed my life?, you bet. Lots better than the Mickey Mouse Club in the 50`s and 60`s 8)

I understand what you mean, although it wasn't the first place my mind went upon reading NIMHkids & NIMHChildren.

Either way, I think I personally will stick with NIMH Nuts ;)
