GTKY - your bump name!

ecwk

I'm curious! Explain your screen name! Why did you choose it? Does it have meaning behind it or is it random? (Obviously, if it would reveal too much personal info, no need to participate!) We did this in my old BMB and it was so interesting! 

ecwk

Mine is not that interesting - mine and DH's initials mixed together

mrslittlemac

When DH was a kid his older brother went by "Big Mac" and he was stuck with the moniker "Little Mac" (spoiler: he is a big, strong guy. I can only assume the nickname was ironic). I thought it was very endearing and so when I signed up for theknot when we were planning our theoretical wedding (fun story, we scrapped our plans and just went to the courthouse--1000 times better in our case and infinitely less stressful!) I thought it was sweet. Thought about changing it since, but haven't settled on a new one.

baby&thesea

I made mine while TTC my first. Dreaming of having a little beach baby.

msmonalisavito

I'm an out of work hairdresser from
NY who has been engaged for 10 years and really knows a lot about cars.  




JK, I just love My Cousin Vinny and her character.

laurad75

Mine carried over from my time on the knot - its my first name, last initial of my maiden name and year I was born.  so boring and unclever I assume you all fell asleep reading that.  

pghctwife

My olllllld name dating back to OH 2004 when I was engaged on the knot was pgh-ctbride. Because we lived in Pittsburgh at the time, I’m from CT and that’s where my weddfing was, and bride... duh. 
Kept it for ages since you couldn’t switch names. Then once I could I didn’t want to change totally - I’m soooo used to being called ‘pgh’ online now lol, it’s followed me to many places - but I ditched the dash since it doesn’t work anymore and im long past bride status. Prob should have said ‘mom’ but whatever. 

princesslockness

My old user name was my first + ex-Fiance's Last name. No idea why, he wasn't even around several years before I joined TB. 

Now its the kids' nicknames mixed together. Lachlan is Lockness Monster, and Emma is Princess Emma the Precious. 

hoodwink89

In high school my nick name was Hoodsie because I lived in sweatshirts (still love them in this freezing cold Wisconsin weather) When I met my hubby (also in High school) he started calling me Hoodwink, hence the name. Born in 1989 so that is the numbers.

melbel0824

My first name is Melanie and when I was little my stepmom gave me the name Melbel. It stuck, and even non-family members will call me that sometimes. And my birthday is August 24. So original. lol.

lakesideknitter

I just love lakes and knitting. I'm lame.

cthulu

Also in the lame boat - I just thought cthulu sounded cool and I spelt it wrong but oh well haha. I had an account previously and it had my name in it but I wanted to be a little more incognito this time around. 

neeraja_k

Neeraja Kalrapindhi, which was too long, so neeraja_k for short. It's been my gamer name for going on 10yrs now and I respond to it, or the shortened "Neery" (which was taken when I signed up for TB) almost as well as my own name.

Inspiration came from, I'm a big tea drinker and at the time I adored a particular Neeraja Ceylon and a darjeeling from the Kalrapindhi Estate. It's a mouthful for sure, but when you're being called a primary target in a game and no one can pronounce it, it's fun.

Yes, I'm a nerd. 

hardlyhannah

I just like alliteration 

scottishlass1213

Pretty self-explanatory - I am half Scottish (my mom is Scottish) Lass means girl in Scotland (though I am a woman haha) and then my birthday.

livinthesunnylife

I live in Arizona and I joke with my other BMB that I live on the face of the sun when they talk about snow and coats and things I don't have. 

hezzer78

Mine is a nickname. My first name is Heather and one of my friends used to call me Hez. 78 is the year I was born. 

calimom2524

Mine's lame. I live in California and I'm a mom. 25 is date of DS1s birth and 24 is DS2's. 

melprop

Mine is the first few letters of my first & last names. 

jsnakehole

I'm a very rich widow with a terrible secret. 

(Also Janet Snakehole/Burt Macklin are my favorite running 'Parks and Rec' joke. This was my okcupid name when I met DH, and we were Janet Snakehole and Burt Macklin for our first Halloween together. )

westphilly

Boring... I live in West Philly!

lakesideknitter

@jsnakehole parks and rec is the best!

calimom2524

@jsnakehole this will always and forever be my favorite gif

dirtanddiamonds

I work in construction and ride UTV’s with the SO. So. I’m always dirty. But still wear my jewelry. I’ve had to have jewelers remove concrete from my settings but I don’t mind. 

mbrowling

Very boring here. M is my first initial and browling is a combo of my married and maiden names

mrsbubbles-2

Love love love this GTKY!

DH's nickname at work before we got married was Bubbles (long story...) We work in the same building so his co-workers started calling me Mrs. Bubbles.

jennybeans46

Old high school nickname

juliebird6

Mine is a nickname given to me by my BFF's dad when we were like 4 years old.  Her family always called me Julie Bird.  Not sure where they came up with that or why, but it stuck around long enough to become my very first ever AOL screen name in like 6th grade LOL.  

hardlyhannah

@mrsbubbles-2 is it from Trailer Park Boys? 

derbysquirrel

I play (and referee) roller derby, and my nickname on the track is Squirrel because of how spazzy and darty I move when jamming. I actually have an official "derby name" but that's easier to identify me by.

alinafed

Alina is my first name. Fed is part of my insanely long last name.

lolog531

Mine is boring. Lolo is a nickname given to me (stemming from my first name) by my cousins when we were living in Chicago and it just kind of stuck. Mostly it’s just ‘Lo’ though. ‘G’ is for my last name, numbers are our anniversary. I’m obviously not a creative person!

multifariousmermaid

I made this account the same day that I had big dreams of a career change... I opened an etsy shop with the same name where I was going to sell all my crafts but quickly came back down to earth after I realized how much time I'd have to invest and how little money I'd actually make lolololol 
multifarious - means many and various types like me I'm pretty eclectic
mermaid - because I love everything mermaid AND unicorn but thought adding that in was a little much

When I made my Tinder bio I had absolutely no idea what to say about myself so the whole thing literally said "aspiring mermaid"  I met my SO there though so apparently he likes minimalist socially awkward girls like myself haha

multifariousmermaid

@neeraja_k I'm a gamer too! We can be nerds together

Yay, a fellow gamer!

redheadbride15

My screen name is a carry-over from TK, where I was pretty active several years ago when planning my 2015 wedding. I didn’t bother changing it to a Bump-related name. And I’m a redhead, of course! Any other gingers out there?!?

dairygirl93

I was working and living at a dairy farm when I was pregnant with DS. I freaking looove cows. I think it has my birth year too? I was not at all active with my first pregnancy. I don’t even know for sure what my bump name is haha

lalala2004

A little girl I babysat called me LaLa (telletubbies fan). I graduated high school in 2004. I use it as my screen name for everything so I can remember it.

mozartsmuse

Hi I’m new, just posted in the intro thread. I was a vocal performance major in college and love Mozart so yay!
