zombieSquirrel Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 This question came to me after reading recent comments in the "New Member Posts" thread. Why did you pick your user name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Bee Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I play a lot of online games and I generally tend to need to select a unique name. I thought this one sounded quite cool and is ALWAYS available. Now I use this name everywhere for consistency reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moontanman Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 My name is an old nickname I got from being caught laying out in the full moon on the beach naked in the winter time by some friends. (Yes alcohol was involved) They asked me what I was doing and I answered getting a moon tan, Moontanman seemed to stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Skeptic Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I chose mine because I'm skeptical. I guess that also means I'm not very original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
divagreen Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 (edited) This is an old username that I used to use on another forum a couple of years ago. I think I was watching the tellie at the time, while trying to create an account for that site, when Madonna strutted across the screen and I thought, "Diva". Then...I thought about what I am most passionate about and that would be sustainable living, and well...g r e e n. I use it on this site because I learned so very much with that username, and I hope that I may learn as much with it here.

michel123456 Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 I hate nicknames. Mine was chosen by mom & dad. 123456 is an unbreakable code i invented since Michel was unavailable. Some other fellow took it. It was probably me in some older perenigration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainPanic Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Nickname? You're suggesting you guys don't use your real names? Damnit... On a more or less serious note: I didn't so much choose my nickname... it sort of happened when I logged in the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StringJunky Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 I was repeatedly referred to as a string junky because I was constantly in state of reviewing different strings for my guitar and not being able to make my mind which was best for me and I also liked the sound of new strings.

Greippi Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 My name is Katie Grape. "Greippi" means "grapefruit" in Finnish, and it amuses me that it does not, in fact, mean just "grape". The number of Finnish people I get informing me that I've got grape in Finnish wrong is insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Variola Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Mine? I love microbiology! Not too original but that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmydasaint Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 I am a film buff, of sorts, but also a fan of classic American films. 'Things to do in Denver When You're Dead' resonated with me because I had met characters like those in the film growing up in a tough part of town (psycho's and general nutcases). However, I liked the main character - Jimmy the Saint. The username box wouldn't accept the full name, hence the abbreviated version in a Bronx accent : jimmydasaint.
