Where does your user ID name come from???


When I first registered, it was as my AOL screen name, MZDavis. DW Lauri was posting as often as I was under that name and we managed to confuse people thoroughly. We were moderators under that same name for a while, but after the DIS moved from Infopop to VBulletin, we decided to go with separate names.

I'll let Lauri tell you about her name later. I was trying to decide if I should keep the MZDavis name or go with something different. After asking on the Collectors board for suggestions, one of the members, Fantasmickey, suggested Obi-Wan Pinobi, combining two favorites -- Star Wars and Disney pins.
 
Well, Cyrano Jones was my favorite Star Trek character from the original days. My MIL is/was Stanley Adams' cousin...of course Adams was not the family name. LOL! But he was really Stanley.
 
oiriginal. But way back when the DIS was only one board ( may 2) there were a couple of Tony's.
 
Mine is simply my nickname growing up. The tie in with my favorite movie, Toy Story, didn't hurt either.

great thread! i've always wondered how people came up with their screen names!

mine's because i'm a huge gone with the wind fanatic...plus it's the nickname my hubby gave way back when we were dating in high school...and 873 stands for august of 1973..the month and year i was born!
 
First 2 letters of DH name, first 2 letters of DW name, first letter of last name, year both DH and DW graduated high school, I know I'm giving my age, but oh well.

Mine is easy - had this nickname most of my life.

My real name is Laureen, and I'm mean :teeth: (Pretty cool how it rhymes, huh?)
 
Mine's pretty unoriginal/self-explanatory, too. I've always been a dog freak, and we have three chihuahuas right now (and the occasional stray or two!), and so I became luvmydogs. My DH once asked why I'm not luvmyhusband.:eek:
 
All other names I could think of when I registered were already taken.:( I didn't want to use my real name. I have browneyes, so I tried that as a username and it wasn't taken. Thus, browneyes was born August 2000.:)
 
Mine comes from my love of Hockey. D is for the Dallas and Star is for the greatest team on earth. 4cup is for the ultimate goal "The Stanley Cup!!!"

Laura is my first name and Bearz is from my old screen name scibearz (play on cyber and I worked in a science store)

My email has a better story...... UsedtobeSmith..... coz well I was and now I am an 11 letter polish name! I keep toying with changing my screen name here over to UsedtobeSMith but I hate to loss my post counter! :teeth:
 
Mine is my husbands name and my name together, with mine shortened a little. Mark and Shawnna. I'm like dandave, I never thought that people would think that I was a guy, but that's okay. Normally people get my name wrong anyway. Most of the time everyone sees my name as Shawanna.
 
Im an interpreteur for the deaf, i use sign langauge, hence the name signtalker(i talk with my hands).

My Scotish great-grandmother.....:D
