Gtky: Explain your name!

yl1m32015 · May 2015

Alright let's do something fun. We did this on another board and it was a great way to get to know each other.

Explain your screen name!

My screen name, embuzz247 comes from my name, Emily. My dad used to call me "embuzz" when I was little and it stuck. I've had te same screen name everywhere since my jr high days!

nik6499 · May 2015

My family all calls me Nik and the numbers have stuck around since high school back in the day when we all had pagers not cell phones, we had number signatures

Shilah78 · May 2015

Nice! Shilah is my dog. Not sure why I named myself after my dog...except that she is super cute...

mamabee1128 · May 2015

my was just my username in college lol nothing too exciting and I can't change it! I've had it since 09 I believe!

Knottie88988989 · May 2015

I didn't get to choose my name.. Or can I change it??

alexandratb · May 2015

Mine is lame - my first name, and then middle and last initials. Booooo my lack of creativity!

One fun thing about my name though: even though I'm Alexandra, in middle school I changed nickname to Alix to impress a boy/it was sooooo unique. I shake my head at 13yo me, but it stuck and I'm still Alix-with-an-inexplicable-i.

enigmaanjel · May 2015

Mine has been enigmaanjel since 1996 lol my bestie gave it to me and it has stuck with me.

CMDD · May 2015

my initials- sooo boring but i don't think we can change it now, can we?

alexandratb · May 2015

@Knottie88988989 you can change it! I actually did it by logging into theknot.com, which has your same login info, then going to account and the change username option. For some reason, TB doesn't let you to change it on mobile but TK does.

nik6499 · May 2015

@alexandratb yours is actually funny because I first saw it and thought it said Alex and rat b lol Then I read it again because I was like what?????? And realized what it said lol

powellgirl · May 2015

My last name is Powell. When my husband is feeling frisky he sings, "save a horse, ride a Powell boy" lol so I made mine powellgirl! For those that don't listen to country music, the real song is save a horse ride a cowboy

Marchmellow2 · May 2015

Marchmellow cause I'm soft and fluffy and I taste real good! :P

CMDD · May 2015

@powellgirl cute!

alexandratb · May 2015

@nik6499 Bahaha RAT B I like it.

laura6006 · May 2015

Well, I'm unimaginative and Laura was already taken so I used the last digits of the phone number I call most often. It just kinda came out and when it worked, I stuck with it.

CMDD · May 2015

@laura6006 that's okay, your GIF makes up for not being crazy creative with your username

laura6006 · May 2015

@CMDD haha thanks!

Timscakesies · May 2015

DH is named "Tim" and he calls me "Cakesies" or "cakes". We've been together over 11 years and he still gives me butterflies...totally cheeseball, I know!

Timscakesies · May 2015

@Marchmellow2 lol!

313Meg · May 2015

I'm boring.
My name is Meg... 3 & 13 are my fav #'s and have been since middle school.

hugheston · May 2015

Mine is a combination of my married and maiden names.

amw2133 · May 2015

I'm boring as well mine is my initials plus hubby's and my favorite numbers.

VesperLove · May 2015

My name is Kylene, i went to U of Maryland for college and 13 is my lucky number. I made this combo for an email in college and have used it ever since. The UM used to be capitalized, then I got lazy, and now it looks like an element on the periodic table or I get confused a lot and say um.

I'm a science teacher and I totally thought you were going for the periodic table lol

ceteichm · May 2015

Mine is super boring c- Christina e- Elizabeth and then the first 6 letters of my last name.... I have a really long name... doctor who animated GIF

redfallon · May 2015

Mine was my username for AOL back in 1996 when you could only have 10 characters. I've used it for things ever since. Where it came from is my hair (red) and the name of a girl in a book that I was reading at the time (Fallon).

angelicmommy · May 2015

angelicreader is my username for pretty much anything. Seeing as this isn't really a reading/writing type of site I thought I would change it. And I am stupid excited about being a mommy so it felt like a good idea at the time. angelic comes from my name by the way - Angelique

colsen4 · May 2015

So not creative on my part. It was the email that I was given when I started college and have been using it for 6 yrs now for almost everything.

KadzoKimbia · May 2015

Kadzo means beautiful in Giriama which is a native tongue in Kenya... so KadzoMama means Beautiful Mama!

before I was Mom my name for things was KadzoKimbia which loosely translates to Beautiful Runner.

When I lived in Kenya one of the families a grew to know nicknamed me Kadzo and I still love how awesomely unique it is!

(I would totally use it as a name for a daughter but we are set on using family names!!)

Edit- just realized that my user name is actually Kadzo Kimbia here

it must be leftover from the Knot when I got married... Oh well... If you ever run across a Kadzomama that's me too

imfunsizeniki · May 2015

Mine is "I'm fun size" from I'm not short I'm fun size... I'm 4'11" lol and years ago dh bought me a shirt with that saying on it and it's stuck, I even had a blog imfunsize.co at one point (don't have it anymore)

Just imfunsize was taken so I tacked Niki on at the end since that's my name. Pretty sure I'm the one with just imfunsize too but I can't seem to log into that account so you won't see that one posting lol

deepseawife · May 2015

My husband is a US Navy Diver, they consider themselves "Deep Sea". DeepSeaWife was born when we were married.

NICHOLE84 · May 2015

Nichole is my middle name and I was born in 1984. I just used something that would be easy to remember.

jashworth633 · May 2015

Mine is pretty boring. J is first initial of my first name (Jessica) Ashworth is my maiden name and 633 was some arbitrary number assigned to me on hotmail a million years ago!

AmandaT121386 · May 2015

Nothing special here. My first name, first letter of my last name, and my birthday.... I was not feeling very inspired when I signed up and I thought MAYBE I could remember it. Lol.

stephiebabe88 · May 2015

Stephie babe is what DH has called me since we were dating in college. And 88 is my birth year.

stickybun14 · May 2015

Stickybun is the nickname my Husband and I use for each other. And not just a little. All. The. Time. I forget when we are in public and if I can't find him in the shops I start calling out 'STICKYBUN' like a crazy lady who has lost her delicious pastries.

desidee77 · May 2015

Desi is short for my name Desirae. A group of friends started calling me Desi Dee at my first concert in 8th grade and it stuck. And I've always loved the number 7. Had this screen name 14 years. Wow.

queenklau · May 2015

Hi all, mine comes from my maiden last name Klauer, they used to call me Klauerina when I was in middleschool. I just added my married name. I miss my maiden name so I try to use it for fun things like this.
