For those of you not yet on my friend's list, I am posting the same note that I sent out to friend's:

Dear Ones,

Just a quick note to let you all know that I've decided to use the name
Momma Tulip here. It is a name that I have used at other times in my
life and in other social circles. It is a name that I am comfortable
with and one I think will eliminate some confusion since I think there
are one or two other Shelleys/Shellys here.

Much Love to all

Your Momma Tulip
