Why did you pick your username?

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.

Let's hear yours!

well.. my name is ashley, and i like to tell myself im awesome from time to time. haha

Some friends and I were playing football and we were talking smack. Someone hollered, "I am the ANNHIALATOR!". I shouted, "I am the Jen....erator.". The other spelling was taken.

The first syllables of my sons first names in chronological order; Tyler (ty) & Vincent (vin) ... tyvin ;)

Mine's easy...my family's nickname for me since I was little :) It is always taken so I have to add numbers on the end

Virgo, student nurse

I am a Virgo and currently a student nurse. Don't know what I will do when I am done with school.

[color=#0055bb]thought it was a good way to express the journey ive started, and where i hope to be someday. just getting started but it will all be worth it!

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

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

Because Dixie is taken everywhere.

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.

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.

I pretty much use the same username for everything........ probably not such a good habit.
