Is there a particular reason you chose your screen name? Does it actually mean something? Or was it just that when you were first prompted to put down a screen name and as your fingers were hovering over your keyboard, the first thing that popped into your head was a feces reference?

I'm a ghost writer by trade, and my SN is also a tip of the hat to the old "Masked Rider" shows. As if you couldn't figure it out...

First thing that popped into my head was a feces reference... Hey! Wait a minute!!

aoeu are the first four letters you learn on the dvorak keyboard

What happened to the previous thread about this? I believe it was called "why you named so good?"

I looked around and even tried to put back some of the thread titles that Epia blew away when she left :-(, but couldn't find it.

I've been working on a book forever, sad to say I get writers block like popping skittles. My main characters name is Neiako, I made it up and I liked it, so I use it.

I am named as I am because the seventh son of the seventh son of a janitor who works in the same building as this guy who is mutual friends with someone I know deemed it to be so.

I chose my name way back in 1998 when I first started using a computer...I did not want any ordinary name or one that did not mean a thing, so I used my imagination and came up with "onebigbooger"...lol. In 2001 found out that a sex site had stolen that one and had to change it to "bigbooger".

SUEBE plate

Old high school nickname derived from Susan and last initial B.

As you can see, I like it enough to pay to have a custom plate on my car. I also have a couple of domain names registered with the name, but haven't used them for anything.

Brown Trout is a euphemism for something you find swimming in the porcelain pond.

...it's also a fish.

Name is Stephen, which gets turned into Step Hen, then The Step for short. No, I didn't think was very original either.

Alton was my Wiccan name, when I was Wiccan back in the early nineties. I stopped practicing, and when I started getting online and playing online games in 2000, I just picked Alton or Alton Grey (especially in games), and it stuck.

Hoosker is a character of minez. A Kangaroo raised in ein German zoo and released down-under. Just some kinder stories I write.
On Worth the screen name is HooskerRoo.
I like Hoosker, he's kind of cool, Kind of goofy, he surf's, badly, but he surf's, he is me in my youth, with a couple of artistic substitutions, for example, substitute Australia with So. California.

I've used this username for 10 years or more. It actually started off as being a password for some old website I frequented, but changed it to a username (by mistake) when I signed up at Worth1000.

When my nephew was born (Dylan) I pretty much raised him until he was 2. My brother, only being 16 at the time of Dylan's birth, wanted to party and go out like young kids do. Since my brother and I still lived with my parents Dylan stayed home all the time. I got my very own play doll!!

My name starts with 'T', so tlovesd seemed appropriate.

Only now, my fiance thinks it stands for him (Dave).

I let him think what he wants. I know what it stands for. ;-)

Bandwidth saving link :-D

No up-vote for the link from me, but I upped the other one.

I named myself thebrownsofa because ever since my husband chose to work away from home, I'm all alone and I don't have someone to cuddle on our bed so I just slept and nap on our brown sofa. It's comfortable and warm care to join me on the brown sofa? (joke)

Cue Jerry in 3...2...1

Wow, someone else uses dvorak! I changed mine just to mess with people trying to use my computer. The trick is you have to sand the letters off as well.

Anyway, Beleg-Aran is an elvish translation of my real name, Richard. Richard = great king in old english = Beleg-Aran. I'm not obsessed with the Lord of the Rings like I once was, but I like how the name sounds, so I used it.

SOFSR came from a bit of an inside joke between me and my friends that originated a few years back when I trolled the Neopets forum to get my account banned (Which I admit was extremely immature and stupid...Which I pretty much was back then).
I went into a thread that was basically named 'Your name: Hot or Not?', except it was in nigh incomprehensible chatspeak. I took that as my cue, and I listed my name as 'Joseph Stalin'. The rater listed my name as 'hot', to which I responded, "SCORE ONE FOR SOVIET RUSSIA!"
I started using it around my friends, and it just stuck with me all these years.
When I registered my account here, I decided against using my usual username, Genkio (from a very old character of mine), and chose to use the acronym for "Score One for Soviet Russia".

When I was in 8th grade, I got a gmail invite. For some reason, roark was taken, and google suggested roarkmeister. I feel attached to the name, and can't stand to give it up.

My original screen name was Mwalimu which is Swahili for teacher (I teach in East Africa...so it fits) but I got downvoted for daring to suggest that sometimes people can be wrong. I found it interesting that people can talk about having "open minds" but close it off when a Christian starts to speak...so this is all interesting to me.
