PIF: How did you pick your username

[leannebug]

I just wrote in one of those, JuliePooliefeefifofoolie. hehehe
OK, so here it is again (for those that don't venture out into the rest of the world )


I've had this username since I signed online (eons ago!) so probably every Leannebug is me
Leanne is my name, and when I was a little girl, I had these little barretts with my name "Leanne" and little ladybugs painted on them. They were my favorites. Hence "Leannebug"
oh, I love bugs too.

 

[Lorizgal]

When I first got together with my partner, I wanted her to know that I was hers and only hers. So I got a yahoo email name that is Lorizgal and lorisgal was taken. She has one for me that is shellzgal and so people know that we BELONG together. I have had that email addy for about 11.5 years. Although I don't use it very often, because it is full of junk mail. Like 1500 pieces of mail a day that I have absolutely no interest in.

So that is where it comes from.

 

[Jynn]

[jude8753]

My friends call me jude and the numbers are my birthday so I have always used the nick where ever I join so I don't forget.

 

[Gunjji]

My name is a variation of something were not allowed to talk about here .
Ive used it for years, ppl just call me Gun.

Mine is simple. My real name is Julie. Some got to calling me Jules a few years back and that just stuck. The numbers just come from the numbers that I was given with my BellSouth email back when we had that years ago. It just sort of stuck and it lets people know it's the same person.

Huh, and i always the the numers were your birthdate 8/22/71

[Sallana]

When I was 11 my dad allowed me to play an online text RPG game. Sort of like AD&D but online without graphics of any sort. I was young so I wanted something really pretty. I thought and thought. I had a friend a few years before whose name was "Salina" and I really liked that name. I also was a HUGE fan of Sabrina the Teenaged Witch. But I didn't want something that sounded like a common name (Which Salena was at the time) and I obviously didn't want to use Sabrina. So after much pondering, I 'concocted' the name Sallana. It wasn't until recently that I've heard of someone else actually having the name, and apparently it's also some strange Turkish song.

However, 'Sallana' has served me very well. It's been my internet handle for 12 years now. I've never had a problem using it as a username anywhere it is never taken. I never have to add numbers or whatnot. Just plain old 'Sallana' always works.

A name that I "Made up" when I was 11 years old has stuck with me very much. I've always been a computer nerd so I really tend to meet 80% of my friends right here, online. So basically everyone considers my name to be 'Sallana' and I am more than Okay with that.

My first 'character' using the name was an Elven Rogue. So when I think of the name I think of an Exotic, sneaky, dangerous little woman, and I love that

[GtrSoloist]

Suddenly you can write an ECF mod and request a name change(assuming the name you want isnt taken).

I should change mine to Engelbert Humperdinck...

 

[Jules22871]

I should change mine to Engelbert Humperdinck...

You are showing your age by using that name,lol What about Tom Jones. He was good way back then too. At least, that's what my MOM said, hehe

 

[GtrSoloist]

LOL I was not around in 1890's...

Edit: That was vague. Engelbert Humperdinck, German Opera Composer, best known for the play Hansel Und Gretel which he wrote in 1893.

 

[gemini2281]

Well... I'm a Gemini, obviously. Gemini was also my stage name in my younger years. The 2281 is the day and year of my birthday.
