Username Stories

[MesaBoogieGrl]

Ok, so this isn't really marriage related, but I thought it would be fun and give this newbie a chance to get to know you all a little better.

What's the story behind your user name? Why did you choose it? Or if you use your real name as your user name, why did you choose to do so?

I like to hear people's stories. You can learn a lot about a person that way. My user name is based on Mesa Boogie guitar amplifiers. I play bass guitar and my amp is a Mesa Boogie Buster.

How about you!

 

[andiesmama]

I'm kinda boring....my daughter's name is Andie...pretty easy one, huh?

 

[MesaBoogieGrl]

Not boring! She's your daughter and I think it's cool that you let us know about her through your user name.

 

[IrishGrace]

I'm Irish and I'm clumsy My friends started calling me Grace about 4 years ago as a joke and it's stuck ever since

 

[MesaBoogieGrl]

Lol!! I love it.

Keep 'em coming, folks! I'm at work and I'm bored!

 

[Linnis]

Linnis is the name I hopefully will name a daughter one day if I ever get pregnant and have a girl.

 

[MesaBoogieGrl]

Linnis is a lovely name. I have a "hoped for daughter" name too. Sadie (My great grandmother's name was Sadie Jamieson. How scottish can you get? Anyway, my married surname is a Mc name, so I figured it works)

 

[4jacks]

I've been using 4Jacks for a long time now... It's my ghetto rap name...

Got it in Highschool, I got into Playing Cards, I first got turned onto cards w/ magic tricks and sleights, then started playing poker and black jack on lunch and stuff turned into a bit of a card sharp. After a little bit I really started to get into fancy card moves. Fancy shuffles and Cuts. I can cut a deck about 17 different ways with one hand. =)

I tell ppl that I got the name from a high stake poker game where I won some dudes car with 4 jacks. But in reality I just picked it becuase it sounded cool.

And that's my story.

 

[MesaBoogieGrl]

That's your story and you're stickin' to it. Very cool.

 

[~Nikki~]

I always loved looking at the Southern Cross constellation when I've been in the southern hemisphere, but I live in the northern hemisphere and you can't see the Southern Cross from here. So I decided to pick northstar on the premise that you can't see it from the south (I'm not sure what it's real/other name is though as I don't actually know anything about that stuff...)

 

[Beth1231]

Beth is my first name and hubby and I married on New Year's Eve. Not nearly as creative as some of the usernames on here, but I like my name and like it when people use it on forums Welcome to CF, by the way!

 

[MesaBoogieGrl]

Nice stories! I hope you're all enjoying this as much as I am.

 

[Leanna]

I got this ol' name from a book I was reading at the time that I signed up for CF..... lol..... one user was shocked when they found out this is not my real name.

 

[Yitzchak]

Yitzchak is hebrew for Isaac. The literal meaning of Isaac is laughter. Some of my friends started calling me Yitzchak because I was always laughing. The nickname stuck.

 

[becky81101]

Well - mine is the same as someone else's on here...
Becky is my first name and my wedding anniversary is Aug 11, 2001 -- so..................................................

Becky81101

I chose to use my real name because I have no reason to be anonymous.

 

[newcreature]

Well, my life verse is this:"If any man be in Christ, he is a newcreature; old things passed away, behold, all things become new." 2 Cor. 5:17
I also love butterflies!
I love the metamorphasis (sp?) that a caterpillar goes through to become a beautiful butterfly!! I have been easily able (does that make sense? lol) to apply this to my life as well. Before Christ (coccoon of sin), after Christ, SET FREE IN HIM!!!!!!

 

[JC 101 FM]

I work in Christian Radio and JC 101 FM is the name of the "fake station" i used in my demo tape to get the job.

 

[GutterRat]

I read a book by Craig Gross called Gutter that has rocked my world. God calls us to go into the gutters of everyones life & pull them out. This is something I try to do - try to live life in the gutters - like a Gutter Rat.

 

[Zoomer]

My username is my Dad's nickname for me.

 

[MesaBoogieGrl]

My username is my Dad's nickname for me.

Ok, I'll bite. How did you get the nickname Zoomer?
