Explain Your User Name

Bryn Mawr · 05-26-2006, 02:22 AM

As a parallel to explaining your Avatar, why did you choose the name you use?

Some of them are obvoius (Weeder springs to mind) and some less so.

Mine was easy - as I've said elsewhere, Brynmawr is the village in Wales where I was born. Any others?

Name and Avatar say it all really, don't they?
CHOCOLATE is a life food.

My username don't mean a darn thing. It is carried over from another site I was on. It came about because when I had to create a username, it seemed that every single thing I could think of was taken so I just started rattling off stuff off the top of my head and this was the first thing I put in that was available.

Mine is the name of our deceased cat. She was a tabby from a rescue place and walked with her head and tail low. My husband said she looked like a tiger, so we called her Tiger, but that's a boy's name so her Sunday name was Tigerlily.

Mine's monosyllabic. I don't think anything else came into consideration when I registered. I like terse and pronouncable. Anyone with three or more syllables or no vowels should get an auto-ban. Other than that, I'm tolerant.

I design my house and I am a woman. Not too exciting I know.

I chose mine for all the syllables.

Arnold Layne is the title of a song by Pink Floyd.

It's about a man who has a strange hobby of collecting clothes from washing lines.

It was all in the past and it was never proved anyway

One of my favourite movies of all time is From Dusk Till Dawn. Santanico Pandemonium is a character from the movie played by Salma Hayek, and I would give just about anything to look as good as that woman does in that movie!

Sad, huh?
