What is the source of your username?

**Rustyknight** · 09-19-2006, 10:31 AM

I just saw a thread over on the solstice forum asking everyone the source of their username, thought I would start one here...

I'm a Slightly Rusty Knight in shining armour seeking slightly frazzled damsel in distress to go dragon and troll hunting.........

KanMan · 09-19-2006, 10:44 AM

I am the KanMan --- not because I am from Kansas --- only because everyone has trouble with my last name. So one day my boss said " Today we are going to kick the Kan,Man" and it stuck.

skywulf · 09-19-2006, 10:53 AM

Wulf, "Wulfy" has been my nickname since 1989 when a boss tagged me with that name after a particularly trying time for our group and we pulled through by becoming a team and ferociously holding on. I fought the nicname, now I embrace it. Especially since I rely on being 95 percent lamb the older I get.

I am sure many of you have been there.

I just added Sky to it.

MidSummerNightsDream · 09-19-2006, 10:54 AM

My daughter was reading this Shakespeare play for required "Summer" reading for high school. It just seem to fit the color that I have on order too.

I'm often "dreaming" of a top down ride under the "Midnight Blue Sky"

(corny I know.. but just work with me..) One day.. Real soon I hope..

skywulf · 09-19-2006, 10:55 AM

Not corney, I have always liked that, as midsummer in the south, when the cotton is high, and the gardenias are bloomin....whoa hidey...causes dreaming for sure!

BLUERIDGE SKY · 09-19-2006, 11:07 AM

I live just a few miles from the Blueridge Parkway... a road that I think the Sky would embrace. A match made in heaven... plenty of elevation...

Just seemed to be the "right" name. Now my avator... I was looking for a black panther (to match my car color) and ran across this dude and just said hey....I like it...

ilber · 09-19-2006, 11:13 AM

Oh this one is simple... came with it about gazzilion years ago with the first ISP in early 90's
I am ILya BEReznyak so first 2 letters of my first name and first three letters of my last name...so here it is ILBER...came out with it when I was 14y/o...still works for me today

My name "Way2Fast" was the name of a 130mph picklefork tunnel hull (mod-VP) race boat that I owned. I sold it last Spring when it got "wet"

Richard

lorinee · 09-19-2006, 11:21 AM

Mine is a combo of my first and middle name. Lori Renee so it comes out Lorinee. My dad called me that when I was a little girl and now I use it for everything.

You obviously have a great sense of humor!

I've been qwack since I started chatting on Prodigy back in 1990.

My last name starts with Q and I wanted a name with "qw" instead of "qu"
My inspiration was daffy duck. Much later, it was pointed out to me that the name fit...being a dentist and not a "real" doctor.

SKYJACK · 09-19-2006, 11:39 AM

BOW4BUCK -- THAT SHOULD TELL YOU EVERYTHING ABOUT MY HOBBIES.
I ALSO SHOOT IN A LOT OF TOURNAMENTS. MY WIFE WILL HAVE TO STAY HOME NOW BECAUSE WE CAN'T TAKE MY BOW CASE IN THE TRUNK.

AT LEAST ITS NOT A GOLF BAG

IslandHopper · 09-19-2006, 11:42 AM

My name came from what I like to do. Every year I go to the Caribbean and basically hop from island to island. Jamaica, Curacao, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands.

This year after buying 2 Saturn Skys, I may stick closer to home

bigdog · 09-19-2006, 11:52 AM

Mine started out with my daughter's friends calling me Big Poppa or Big Poppa Pete. My brothers caught wind of that and bought me Bigdog brand T-shirts. The rest is history.

PS - I did get to keep the Poppa Pete part 4 1/2 years ago when my grandson was born. That is reflected on my license plate - PPA PETE

Ernest · 09-19-2006, 11:58 AM

Nothing interesting here, I just used my real name!!!

usmc · 09-19-2006, 11:59 AM

4 years active duty. 92-96

MidniteBlues · 09-19-2006, 12:02 PM

Easy, originally tried to register SkyKing, was already taken

Second choice was a twist on my Sky's color, of course mine is the proper way of spelling MidniteBlues, perhaps Saturn should learn how to spell eh??

**spunkie** · 09-19-2006, 12:03 PM

My user name is actually the name of my bulldog. she was white with a black eye and reminded me of the dog in the series "our gang" that I loved as a child. Sadly, she had to be put down in July due to a shattered leg from chasing a squirrel. I figured since my other "nicknames" are not suitable for posting, Spunkie would have to do.
