there are some very colorful names on this forum. It would be kinda fun to know how they came to be.... mine for instance...
the early bird may get the worm, but it's the second mouse that gets the cheese.
anyone else care to share?

Although I have lived with my first name for over 60 years, I've never liked it.
So I use whatever name comes into my head when I register in a forum.
Sometimes I'm susan or ruth. Here I'm maxie.
When I was younger I used to have pretty long hair and I was very particular about it.....I liked every hair to be in place if possible so I always carried a comb with me.....even when I played softball (LOL)..... I played on a softball team in which we all went by nicknames..........the deal was that you couldnt pick your own, the rest of the team got to choose your nickname and you had to go along with it.........that is where the name "Style" came from and it has stuck with me for 18 years....(even though I dont have much hair left these days......LOL)
I am a teacher and a mom of two wonderful boys...hence teachermom... I know I know.. really original!! LOL
m~
I love the moonlight, I prefer staying in the shadows, by day I am another person....I am theBat$......alter ego secret!
When I was first out of college all my buddies had "dog" nicknames. They called me Lucky Dog because I always have been blessed.
Even when things don't always go right.
I still am very blessed. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/17/17_1_20v.gif
mine just seems to follow me around!
:woohoo:
[QUOTE=Style....that is where the name "Style" came from and it has stuck with me for 18 years....(even though I dont have much hair left these days......LOL)[/QUOTE]
:biggrin: that makes 2 of us without much hair left :wink: and we are only about 1/2 year different in age oh well the hair had to go sometime .For my username I took part of a nickname from my oldest sister (snowy mark) and changed it a little. I'm not sure howshe came up w/ that nickname
Mine is just to illustrate that I will bounce back whatever happens.
username based on my previous business name:
YHLC = YOUR HOME LOAN COACH
if i could, id change it to 28&RETIRED.
I created "everwiser" when chatting on AOL back in 1997. I needed a new screenname so that I could limit the junk mail I had to go through each day and also to throw off an ex-wife that was "following" me around the various chatrooms. I figured the older I get, the wiser I get, therefore I am continually "everwiser". I've gotten a lot of comments and compliments on it over the years and am still getting everwiser. It's who I am now. LOL
I am simply known as: Animals are my friends and I don't eat my friends.
Bali
LL
Mine is because I love roses. Red ones. :new:
Mine is my real indian given name although I'm not allowed to use it. My name was changed to a christian name when I entered school. That's the way it was way back then. Now I'm giving away my age.....
Mine is a combination of two things. . . .first "ox" is the chinese year I was born (I'm really into Tai Chi & spent some time in Hong Kong), the "1216" is the size of the motorcycle engine I use to race.
Mine is my childhood nickname. I couldn't pronounce my real name when I was a little girl, all I managed to say was: nanni
Friends normally call me my real name, but my parents still use nanni. And the kids in the family allways call me aunt nanni
Wow, what a nice thread.
Rolclub is for
Rents on loan club! :-)

Mine is nothing special: my first name is Antje, and while I was married to my first husband my last name was Seebohm-Zimmermann (which is awfully long of course). So I just shortened that to antjesz. Originally I also signed up to the forum as "antjesz". But then I lost my password and could not retrieve it because I did not use the email-address anymore that I had used with my registration. So I just re-registered, and there you have "antjesz2".
Wacky was the name of my little, intelligent pet (now in heaven)
it was a parakeet (that's a bird) and it could actually say the word wacky, and it used to repeat it everytime he was happy.
So we nick named the bird... Wacky
And I'm a bit wacky myself too :)
hey this thread is excellent!
Mine is just a the common nick for my real name. All my family use it and many close friends. :biggrin:
Easy Tremar is myself and my wife TREvor and MARgaret.
good thread guys... mine first name Jed, the infalable (sp. infalible). No matter how perfect one tries to be, it reminds me that everyone especially myself, makes mistakes, and to learn from them and gain strangth from one's weaknesses, and to forgive those who makes mistakes, including myself...
Wouldn't this make you "falablejed"? LOL Just kidding. It's kind of along the same lines as "everwiser". :thumbsup:Quote:

I have a habit of getting up every morning, pouring myself a cup of coffee, and slipping out the back door in my PJs to garden.
That’s right. No matter how hard I’ve tried to break the habit, every morning I find myself out in the yard somewhere, pulling weeds or pruning a rose bush or cutting some blooms for the breakfast table...in my PJs. I just can’t help myself. I’m always in such a hurry to see what God has done to beautify the place during the night, I can’t take the time to change out of my bed clothes. Isn’t that terrible?
The only time I was able to break the habit for a few days was at the Pips Convention in Hawaii last year. With our room on one of the hotel’s highest floors, I was forced to get dressed before I could look at all the beautiful flora and fauna on the hotel grounds. My husband thought that was pretty funny.
In any case, now you know why I am “PJgardener” and BTW, this is only my second post on Rolclub...my first being just a few days ago. I hope you all will still accept me as a fellow Pipster, despite my risque habit of digging around in the dirt in my PJs! Also, to that other Pipster out there who refers to herself as "Rosepettle" because she loves roses (red ones), I'm with ya girl! I could talk roses all day long! That's just one of the reasons I want Pips to work...I love to buy roses and give them away to people. Happy, Happy New Year and the very best to you all in 2006!
:leader:
Well mine in nothing special. When I first joined the PIPS forum it was my first and I did not know what to put in so i just put in them initals. When I came here it was natual to keep the same name. so I stuck with JWB.
The name by the way is John William ( i will leave the last bit, cant give it all away)
I guess I was just wishful thinking and being a romantic, to be someone's little
mon cheri.........~*
I don't like to pick a fight or fight with others (fist fight) I like to talk my way out of trouble and that's where I got my name. LOL
I chose my username because I'm a dedicated Christian and i read in the Word of God that we did not choose Him, but He chose us. Therefore I feel I am hzchoice. I had to add the 2 because when I did some computer cleaning a while back my name got kicked off the forum and when i tried to get back on they said the name was taken! It was, but how could I explain that. So I just added the 2. Guess that means I'm doubly blessed, huh?

wow.. this thread has been wonderful! It's like learning a little bit more about all your friends. I can relate to many... rosepeddle... and pjgardner .... lol, I never 'intend' to go out in my pj's and robe... but I'm an early riser, 5ish. When it's nice, after pouring a cup of coffee, I go to the door to watch the sunrise, next thing ya know... I'm outside enjoying the beauty... morning sun on a summer rose... awesome... :tongue:
and I've been a Christian since I was 8, when God took me by the heart and brought to Him ... since then... no doubt.... I KNOW He's with us ....
life is good....
thank you everyone... :party:
next.............
this is fun...
more names please.... :tongue:
"Whatever" is one of my teenage son's answer to just about anything right now, especially if he's not too keen on doing something:
"Honey, did you put your muddy socks in the hamper yet?"
"Whatever."
"Can you please turn your lights off when you come downstairs?"
"Whatever"
"Will you try not throwing the ball so fast at your sister when she plays catch with you?"
"Whatever."
I don't know. I was just brought up to try and be who I am, so I just used my own name:
drgibble
No matter what I do, I'll always be that, for good or bad.
Mine came about because I stay soooooo busy all of the time. I am the Queen of multi-tasking. It is a combo of my initials and busy one - SBZZY1 (Yes, as we speak, I am going over a loan for my approval and printing out a report that is due in about 10 minutes!!!!Now back to work!
