How did you get your screen name/user name?

[Roemama1]

Just wondering if you all would like to share how you came up with your screen name?

Like mine is kind of a take-off of Joe mama....my name is Ro....and I just added the rest. (Trying to be humorous but sometimes it fails...)

 

[piglet too]

Well, I love Winnie the Pooh and...Piglet too!

 

[Briar Rose 7457]

for a Disney board I wanted a Disney name. I love Sleeping Beauty.

 

[Otto's Doll]

DH has called me Doll since our very first day together, hence Otto's Doll

 

[wishuponastarforever]

wishuponastar was taken - I added forever and it worked.
Every evening I see the stars, I make a wish.

Half the time I probably wish upon a planet but maybe that works too????

I just realized that is where your name came from. I just watched that movie for the first time with my 2 DD's two weeks ago... I think I'm a bit sheltered....

[RUSHBURY]

Hi

RUSHBURY was my Grandmother's maiden name and is also my second name.

 

[Dan Murphy]

I thought about it for about a week, and then, like a ton of bricks, it hit me, an awakening.

 

[Pixie_Dust]

I have had my handle since before there was an internet. In the days of local bbs's, I wanted a name that described the inner me, and my mind flashed on a picture of me as a child wearing the then-popular "pixie" haircut. "Dust" seemed the appropriate "last name."

I have been on the DIS for many years (before the 2000 reorganization), and when I first signed up I was just going with my normal handle. I soon realized it had a special "Disney" meaning as well I'm sure that when I picked it in the first place I had an unconscious fondness for Tinkerbell and the Peter Pan story.

 

[zurgswife]

[Stepharoonie!]

Well, my name is Stephanie. When I worked at Uno's, my manager got flustered with me one day, and all he could say was..."You're...you're...such a....STEPHAROONIE!!!"

I have no idea why he said that, but it stuck for the last 5 years

 

[airhead]

I'm an airbrush artist

 

[edcrbnsoul]

Well I'm Ed and when AOL first came out it limited how many letters you could have in your name,being a parrothead all the others were already taken so Caribbean Soul got shortened to crbnsoul, it was unique and I never have problems registering it on web sites so its what I stick with!

I've got a Caribbean Soul I can barely control!

[PigletsPal]

I love Pooh Bear, but it was already taken so the next best thing was who is PiglestPal but Pooh!!!!

 

[battricia]

My name is tricia and I love bats. (as in the animal.)

tricia.

 

[helenabear]

One of my names is Helena and a nickname of mine is Elaine Bear... long story short, helenabear became a common use nickname of mine all over the internet, so I couldn't help but sign up with it. It was a username I had when I wasn't sure I wanted people to know my real first name, but it was still a name of mine so I wasn't really lying when people asked for a name... I just never told *which* name of mine it was
