OT: If you'd like to share tell us where your Screename comes from ?

[ChitChatNine]

ChitChatNine .. History:  From the old AOL days it was ChitChat9 and when I switched to another ISP it was taken and the pop-up window suggested the "nine" spelled out .. so nine years later .. here it is!  I really think most of my Internet friends don't even know my first name .. they call me ChitChat or CC9 .. either is fine .. I'll know it's me.

[EN24]

Mine is boring compared to all your fun stories!  :)  Initials and a special date.

[redhed87]

Mine is pretty obvious- I have red hair and I graduated high school in 1987.  My icon is Kim Possible because my daughter told me I looked like her- red hair and green eyes and my name is Kim.  Nothing exciting.

[KelDC]

Kel is my nickname and DC are 2 other initials in my name. Nothing very original there!  

My picture is my dog - a one-eyed German Shepherd named Sophie.  =)

[worriedinmd]

Is it possible to change my screen name? Since joining this forum, I'm anything but worried. still live in md, though. :))

[ChitChatNine]

Yeah, remember the stitches from those good 'ol days!  I remember our hill was called suicicde hill with jumps and all .. today houses stand there .. used to be filled on the sidelines with ***** willows and fresh blueberries along with black eyed susan's (depedning on the seasons) .... the hill is still there but now a paved road ..not the thriller event it was back in the 60's for me. Back then it looked like a ski slope (a dangerous one) and the hardest part was climbing up to the top and avoiding the high tension poles as you made your way down .................................

[RADIOFLYER]

My name comes from moving our family home so many times in my youth.  The old radioflyer wagon was used in the process....it brings back the warmth and good memories of a very large and close family. And of course, lets never forget the feelings of adventure we used to have when riding it down the paved hills with reckless abandon!  

I still keep a radioflyer handy at all times!  LIFE IS BETTER THAN GOOD! :)


I want to thank everyone who post here....the support and information received has been awesome!

[898]

898 is the part of my previous car's licence plate.
Until few days ago I used the image of Giordano Bruno for my avatar.
BTW it is very interesting topic!
I wish we would have more like this!!

[Applecore]

My name comes from eating apples when I was young (I still do) and leaving the core lay around.  My Dad would call me applecore.     Love linda

[kitty9309]

I also knew the origin of your name.

You told us at some point way back...

[nissah46]

My first name, Trish, was taken so I spelled my last name backwards and my age at time of diagnosis 46.

[dscoochie]

OMG - my brain just does not work these days!  I thought it said screen picture, not screen name.  

Sorry to bore you with that Sound of Music explanation!!!

My screen name is made up of my initials (DS) and a nickname for my husband, coochie choochie coochie.  Silly, I know...but we have to entertain ourselves wherever possible!

A shadow in the night. A bull in a china shop...wait...

We take care of a stray cat we call Kitty and my house number.

Only my closest friends call me Catie....the C being the first letter of my last name...

Very original, wouldn't ya say.....

[krss60]

     Mine came from an ordinary place. First initial of first name and 3 letters from my last name. and i was going to be 60.  That is how i got my screen name.

[dscoochie]

My icon:

My favourite movie is The Sound of Music. And my favourite line from that movie is when the Reverend Mother tells Maria that when the Lord closes a door, somewhere he opens a window. I love that - it's so true!

Should I survivie this surgery and the impending results (I'm completely terrified), I'm going to get that tattooed on my body somewhere, and I'm not a typical tattoo kind of girl!
