Why did you pick your username?

Published

I was just wondering why you picked your username? Is it a nickname? Is there a meaning behind it?

My username "made" is the first letters from myself, my husband and my kids. It spells MADE.

Molly, Asia, Dawn and Eric.

I chose mine because when I am at work that is usually what I feel like I am. And Pooperscooper was taken. :)

When I joined Allnurses, I was a student, hence the "2B" part of my "handle". Now I am done with school, duly licensed and a real REGISTERD NURSE =) I just haven't figured out how to change my name, LOL

Specializes in m/s, icu.

My real name is Anne. Through the years, people from different circles have called me "Miss" Anne, they say it's a southern thing. So, I added the Rn for a username after graduation. But no one calls me "Miss Anne, RN"...except my hubby when he thinks he's being funny :D

Specializes in ED/ICU/TELEMETRY/LTC.

Because Dixie is taken everywhere.

Specializes in Psych ICU, addictions.

Meriwhen is the name of a pony in L.E. Modesitt's Recluce series. No special significance behind it other than I liked the name.

Specializes in Nurse Leader specializing in Labor & Delivery.

It was the username I chose 14 years ago when I first started posting on message boards (Parentsplace.com, before they were bought out by iVillage). It was my (at the time) initials, followed by "one" because I'm number one! I liked the sound of it, and it stuck. I have a different username at the other sites I post at regularly.
