How Did You Get Your Login Name?

[ninnymary]

I have been curious as to how each of you came up with your login name.

I will start with me. We are expecting our first grandchild the end of June and our daughter wants the baby/child to call us ninny and papa. I happen to like the nick names. I certainly don't feel old enough to be a grandmother! and didn't think "grandma" fit.

How did you get your login name?

Ummm... its short for Violent Fem :/

But apparently on other forums, my user name offended many people.

We've had this thread over on BYC, too.
MY screen name is from my family's pet name for me, "Duck." When I was little I loved it when we got baby ducks for easter, and I loved to play in puddles. For a little while, I WANTED to be a duck.
At a previous job I had to come up with a password that had letters and digits. When I said the number "4", the word "you" naturally followed, therefore, ducks-4-you

There are many ways to spell and reuse this password, too.
ducks4ewe
ducksforyou
duxforyou

And THAT's the end of the story.

I collect pre-history artifacts....."arrowheads" and such. One of the rarest is a 'Boggybranch 1'. I found one 13 months after I started "stomping" fields. The friend that got me started in this hobby, had not found one in all the years that he had been looking.......hence my screen name.

How silly, I don't know why it would. It's just a band.

My horse's name is Journey. I named him Journey because he is my first horse and it's been quite a journey of learning together. 11 is the day of the month of my birthday.

My login name didnt really come from anywhere i just thought to use greenthumb because i seem to take better care of plants and wont have them die so easily than other members of my family. So i decided to use greenthumb, it seems to fit me well.

Like the Violent Femmes???

My name came up because I have curly hair, and when I'm introducing myself to the girls at my afterschool group, I tell them that's how they can remember my name: Curly Kate.

I guess I made good assumptions! That's exactly what I thought it meant.

Yes, I am a huge Violent Femmes fan, so it makes me a violent fem, yes no?!~

 

[dragonlaurel]

My first name means Laurel and I was born in a dragon year. The combination was perfect for me.
