I'd love to know the meaning/reason/story behind some of the names that appear on here.

Please tell us the why's and wherefore's of your names. :)

wattapain

Well my name's Terri but I got so fed up when tying to join various boards etc - entering my name & password so many times ony to be told ' this name/password has already been taken'

Terri

johcharly

My nick comes from my two children Joh and Charly (Charlotte).

legless

in 1999 i went to the british grand prix with a load of people i met on a formula one forum. i wore those trousers that zip off to make shorts and earned the nickname legless because of that. i use it everywhere on the net now.

johcharly

By the way Lankylass I used to live in Lancaster, where groups of lads on a Saturday would roam the streets shouting Lanky Lanky Lancaster. Imagine my mates joy when they re4membered I am from Doncaster. Donkey........ ;D :D

ACE

It was a motorcycle name that I owned at the time of joining, I should change it to electroglide now.

Anne Robertson

And there was me thinking you permanently walked around with a drink in your hand, legless ;D

Ceri

mine would be er...welll.... Ceri!

It's unusual enough that it doesn't get kicked off as described by wattapain - great name by the way!  I'd only forget a made up name anyway

Svea

mine is simply my first name.
Gardening in SE17 since 2005 ;)

honeybee

Well i always use my mums name Mollie as my username but for some reason i changed my name on this board as i wanted something more befitting  ;D

foxyglove

Well I checked out all the other names before I chose one.  There was Rhoda Dendron, Too Lip etc.  I thought we had to be flowers - hence Foxy Glove!   :-*

Roy Bham UK

 ;D Well I guess I was lucky that there wasn't anyone from Birmingham with the name Roy that lived in the UK 8)

simhop

Hi - my name is made up of the first three letters of first and last name. First used wayback when signing up for yahoo email and is now my username everywhere.

Wicker

Mine is because I originally hail from Wick (tho people from there would pronounce it Weeker!)
Equality isn't everyone being the same, equality is recognising that being different is normal.

Doris_Pinks

The person that taught me all my gardening and was my godmother and aunt to boot was called Doris, so I picked the name in honour of her!
We don't inherit the earth, we only borrow it from our children.

Gadfium

Gadfium is one of the characters' names in an Iain M Banks book.

My real name is generally unavailable as an e-mail/registration  possibility; so long, long ago... I became a 'Gadfium' for no better reason than I liked the sound of it!

:)

Amazin

Mine's based on my wit, charm, style, intelligence, phenomenal strength of character and sparkling personality...

...or maybe just my first name
