How did you choose your screen name?

[Tuxie]

Ummm... lessee. Over the course of 5 or 6 forums, I've had 5 or 6 different screen names. My present one is a take-off of my interest in the Linux operating system. Linux's symbol is the penguin... thus, Tuxie. :D

Tell us, how did you come up with yours....

<----Tuxette and also it's the female version of Tuxie

when i was younger i always wanted to be australian, because i could do the accent really well (and were talking, like... pass for a real australian) and so i wanted to go there and pretend like i was from there because i was so proud of my accent, so then i called myself an aussie. and i love coffee above all things, well sort of, beverages at least :) and so when i realized those two rhymed...! then i wanted some numbers, but i couldnt remember any random ones and i didnt have a favorite number and i didnt want to put my birthday, so aussiecoffee007 (and yes please read it double-o-7 :) ) was born.

[wiggles]

Well reading mine some will draw some kind of sexual connotations (many have), some will think I'm female, some that I'm gay, and some that I have some kind of weird tick which means I'm always moving. The fact is that none of these is true, or even close, at all, not even in the slightest!!

Wiggles is a nick-name I got in uni. I was sat in the food court one day with a few friends when one said "I know! We'll call you Wiggles!" I went from thinking it could be some veiled insult to a reference to my hair (it's a little wavy)

In the end I found out he'd been watching Futurama the night before and Bender (the robot) had become captain of the space ship and randomly decided to call Fry - "Wiggles". And so that inspired some blatant plagerism, and my nick name was born. To the point that their friends didn't learn my real name until way after they first met me.

[Confused112]

[lisa843]

[Daisy duke]

[summit]

I live by the motto "Summit or die trying" and its too long for a username so I just shortened it to "Summit" so now I have a reminder when I come on to any forums, or anywhere I have a screen name that my purpose in life is to accomplish my goals that I had set out for so long ago, any any new ones that come my way, its a nice daily reminder to always shoot for the top :)

[~Teej~]

It's my Nickname :p

[stoner]

Back in college, I used to live with four other guys, and we lived in an off-campus apt., by Weed Street. Not that it reflected any of our personalities, but just for the fun of it, we decided to give ourselves aliases related to the street that we resided in. Our aliases were ganja, pothead, bong, doobie and I became stoner. After all the years that had passed, the name stuck! lol... :D
