I have had such so much fun and learned so much from you all since I found this site. I also belong to other message boards and love to see all the different screen names people come up with. Some even make me chuckle out loud. Just wondering how you all came up with yours. I AM an old hippy, grew up in So Cal in the 60's-70's. I try to live in peace and harmony, practice random acts of kindness, I still love folk music (my personalized car license plate {my forum icon} reflects my mantra). Thanks for sharing
It's just a word I made up after having so many of my names get rejected cause someone already had them ![]()
That's the worst thing...thinking of a new username. Takes about 2 hours!
I'm not as creative as you all are
My screen name just comes for the first letter of my first name, followed by my middle name 'lynn', and then the first letter of my last name. I love seeing some of the others' names and usually wish I thought of it!! ![]()
When I met my husband it became clear that I would have to learn to like some of the sports that he loves to watch in order to spend time together.
(After all its NASCAR season, followed by Football, then Hockey then Golf. Then the whole thing starts over again!) ![]()
I will watch football, I like NASCAR--especially restrictor plate races, Golf I would rather play than watch, but gosh darn if he didn't get me addicted to HOCKEY! I LOVE HOCKEY!!!!
So he calls me his 'little hockey girl' and the name stuck. The 658 is a reference to a Tori Amos song that I love called "Spark". I always use that number when just hockeygirl has already been taken.
I guess mine is kind of obvious. I'm 18 years old (I think they block my age out when I submit it),the oldest child, and I guess my screen name isn't very true anymore...my 5th sibling is on the way! (only 5 more weeks
Keep this thread going!

I love anything with butterflies on it and my name is JuLinda. My nickname in school was JuJu so butterflyjuju was easy for me to use.
this is fun...thank you all for contributing...maybe a few more will join in...
I picked RedPanda as my screen name because I love red pandas, which are (to me) adorable and very interesting. My son got me interested in them a couple of years ago when he saw an article about them in one of his magazines. A few months later, we got to see some up close in the Calgary Zoo (Canada), and I was smitten. ![]()

This is a great thread! ![]()
Mine is pretty boring ... cakes by jess is my business name, so it was an easy decision for me to make it my screen name. ![]()
When I started out online, I was on a website for women pregnant with a child due in March of 2000. I knew I was having a boy, so I was thats_my_boy for a long time. Then I had a daughter and another son and a smart-alec-y friend of mine, who I always joke about my being a hilly-billy, asked if I was gonna change it to "thems_my_kids." So I did!
Well mine is because even though I'm a aunt many times (as a matter a fact I was born one) no one ever calls me "Aunt" because they are all around my age (and the ones who aren't have sibling who are) so I decided that I might as well use it for a business name that way someone might call me aunt LOL. And "Em" is my nickname.

Ok, I'll bite, lol!
I wish I knew how much I was going to be on this site BEFORE I came up with my user name!!!!
The 2 m's are initials of my first & last name; the 2 d's are my **cup** size. TMI???
My avatar is my , ahem, disillusioned husband. (disillusioned b/c he thinks he's married to someone else; and worse--I can't even get him to come home at night, lol!)
I never get tired of reading all the names. Thanks so much for all your responses. We all have such great personalities!
I hate coming up with user names. You go through fifteen of them befor you find one that isnt already taken! An old friend of ours used to call me mommabear because I am so protective of my kids. It seemed to be the first one that was available and I was tired of trying.
I was watching Flavor of Love- a reality show on VH1, right before I got on here and it just stayed in my head (flavor flav) So I thought I'd be Flavacakes!
mine isn't all that exciting either... emf, my initials and 7701 is the date i married my hubby!
it's the user name i use for EVERYTHING!!!!! i guess my creativity lies in decorating cakes and scrapbooking and not in thinking up clever user names! LOL
Everyone's screen name is special-I love the reason behind them all- THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR TAKING TIME TO RESPOND, this is fun
Anoldhippy--- this ROCKS!!!! Great idea. I always look at peoples screen names and try to figure it out ![]()
Mine is K'ly short for Kimberly, my name and Kat for just that, cats. I luvzzz them. My email address have always been thecatsmeow. A friend of mine started calling me K'ly recently and I thought the change would be nice ^,,^
I got my screen name from my hubby. When we got married in 95, and I got my first email address and needed a name... He came up with ladyvader01. Hubby is a Very BIG Star Wars fan, collector, and now costumer. His favorite is Darth Vader, so I became ladyvader01, and use it for everything!!
I even became a SW fan myself, not quite as into it as hubby of course. The fun thing is he just finished his Clone Trooper costumes and has gone on a few troops. I just got my Bariss Offee costume finished!! He is now gonna start on a Shadow Trooper costume, and I am putting together a Imperial Officer umiform. ![]()
Mine comes from our last name Graham and my hubby's nick name during school Graham cracker - just added the little
