GTKY: Screename

sparklingdiamond

How did you come up with your screen name or what does it mean?  I always love learning this about people!

sparklingdiamond

I have had mine for a long time, but originally picked it because of my favorite movie at the time, Moulin Rouge. 

ruby696

Mine is my dog's name and a number that's significant to me. Not very creative!

prpl11butterfly

Favorite color - date (11th) DH and I made it official - I love butterflies 

Dcwtada

I am going to overwhelm you guys with my creativity. It’s my initials (DCW) and my nickname (Tada) - Tada is for sweet pota(da) which my dad called me when I was a baby and tada stuck to the point where people close to me use that name exclusively. 

Yes, I am named after a potato...

sparklingdiamond

@Dcwtada Aww that is cute!

eleven_

I posted this same thing in my last BMB. I just love this little waffle-stealing bad ass.

Dcwtada

@eleven_ as do I. I had no trouble guessing the inspiration behind you SN...

GabbyCat13

I’m totally boring. My is pretty much my name (Cat Gabbard- I don’t mind putting that out there) and my favorite number.

ShadeofGreen816

Mine was my AIM screen name from HS. It's from the Incubus song "A Certain Shade of Green." I was obsessed with Incubus when I was younger. 816 bc  it's our anniversary, and I needed a number

goodgodlemon

Mine is also not creative - 30 Rock is one of my favorite shows and I am a particular fan of Tina Fey and her character Liz Lemon. Liz Lemon and I have the same life philosophy which is "All of human kind has one thing in common. The sandwich. I believe that all anyone really wants in this life is to sit in peace and eat a sandwich." I love sandwiches, they are my favorite food and the no cold cuts thing in pregnancy might kill me.

liamsmommy09

Mines also pretty easy. My first borns name is Liam, I'm his mommy, and he was born on the 9th lol.

dntstpbelieveing

I dont really have a story behind mine. I used an old account this time instead of the one I used with my last bmb in hopes of disguising my identity a little more. So after I got my BFP I panicked in picking a new one. 

runyogamom

Mine is super simple. I like to run. It's a great stress reliever for me. I recently got into doing yoga when I realized how beneficial it could be for my body. I had a back injury and nothing my chiropractor was doing helped much. Yoga healed me 100%. And I'm a mom.  

ETA: I originally thought of runyogawine because I love some relax time with a nice cheap bottle of wine. But my husband said it sounded like I had a wine problem then. lol 

chachacharrrmin

I mentioned this in another thread when I was called out as a possible cat gif troll, but when I created my Xbox live account they randomly assigned me to this SN. I broke out laughing because of how ridiculous it sounded, so it kind of stuck. 

SunflowerMama428

Back before the mass exodus when almost every bump group was extremely active I lived in the infertility group since I went straight to ivf. Each ivf cycle had a group and we themed it out. I had two failed ivf cycles and the third made me apart of the September Sunflowers group. Each month we voted on a positive theme for the month to send good vibes.

It was successful and I have an amazing 4 year old. Sunflowers hold a lot of positive meaning but it also reminds me of the amazing group of women I leaned on when I went through that cycle and had my first baby. So I’m a sunflower mama. I’m still friends with some cycles buddies and I thought it was only fitting when I came back to the bump to change it. 

Eta: 4 and 28 are DS1 and DH’s birth date numbers

bakerstreetboys

Anyone watch "Sherlock"?  If so, you'll know where I got my screename!  I changed it about a year and a half ago and all of the "Stranger Things" names that I tried were taken! @eleven_ which is why I immediately liked yours and I remember commenting on it in the TTGP board!

meatballs37

Ours is what we nickname all our kiddos. DH started calling DD our first born meatball when she was an infant. She was (well still kinda is) a chubby little thing. She has always had those super pinchable cheeks and squishy legs. Picture in spoiler. 

mamadoesmath

I’m getting my masters in math right now - in my final year of the program and working on my thesis. Now I’m pregnant, so I’m a mama doing math I like to rep women in math super hard since we are underrepresented in the field. 

marijaa333

Alternative spelling of Maria (j is a y sound). And I've always loved the number 3. Picture is of Montenegro, where one od my grandparents is from.

ohheyitsb

@runmomyoga hi fellow runner! (: 100% about the stress relief benefits. I used to be good about doing yoga as well to keep my muscles happy...probably why  my back is messed up now!

@mamadoesmathI don't have mine in math but hell yeah masters degree!

"b" is an old nickname...my nickname...so when I post...oh hey, it's me.

chachacharrrmin

@marijaa333 we visited Montenegro this summer - what a beautiful country

sparklingdiamond

@mamadoesmath Good for you!  I'm terrible at math so I can't imagine a masters in it!  

klmcguire

I would love to say there is something super cool behind my name, but back on TB in 2011 I just used my maiden name... Super original and personal I know. I have been here for 7 years now, so figure now that my last name is different it doesnt even matter. 

amaren-2

Nothing fancy.

Some letters from my first name and my last name -2

No idea where the -2 came from because I originally had our wedding anniversary date when I was here last. TB must have updated it randomly from 2016 to now. Lol -2 it is.

marijaa333

@wearyfuzzball so glad you liked it!

chikin_mama_3

I raise chickens and this will be my third child. Easy peasy 

nmbrcrnchr1

I’m an accountant and the company I work for has this weird thing about taking vowels out of words in our accounting systems, the 1 is just a 1

sparklingdiamond

@nmbrcrnchr1 I wondered if you were an accountant or something!  So am I!

AshleighDB

Mines so boring lol Just my name and middle and (former) last initial. Although Ashleigh is prettier than the way my name is actually spelled 😊

antera23

@goodgodlemon your screen name is my favorite! Now I am going to watch 30 Rock! 

Mine is just a bunch of letters in my name with a random number thrown in. Not creative at all, lol. 

Edit: I just realized I’m due on the 23rd!! What a sweet coincidence! 

luckystar28

I wanted to change my screen name after my first bmb. When ttc I kept thinking what I wanted to name myself. I randomly thought that this baby was going to be a lucky star in our lives and so I decided to run with it. I found the cute profile photo and knew it was it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

allydsal

mine is my name. ally (allyssa) D (daneé) Sal (salinas).... I'm simple

kjr9519

I hate making usernames, so I usually just stick with the simplest things. Mine is just my initials and 95, the year I was born, and 19, the year LO will be born. *TW* when I first made the nickname, the 19 was meant for LO due in Feb, but I’m still hoping we’ll get our first LO in 2019, so I left it. *END TW*

TJtheGoat

I don’t want to play favorites but @Dcwtada
I LOVE that your nickname is Tada. My pet name for my dog is sweet potato and BF’s nickname is Loaf, so the food names really work for me. 

My screen name is boring. TJ is a nickname of mine and GOAT as in Greatest of all Time. Cuz why not? Lol

KissMeImScottish

My Sept 15 username was legit my first initial and my last name, but I changed it for privacy reasons. I’m not terribly creative, I’m afraid. My family is Scottish, and it’s a play on “Kiss Me, I’m Irish”.

runyogamom

@sparklingdiamond and @nmbrcrnchr1 accountant over here too. Nerd life  

Dcwtada

@TJtheGoat I truly thought there was a goat named TJ in your life. Wont lie, kinda disappointed. I wanted to know about him. 

Thats adorable you call BF loaf - my daughters first nickname and stuck for the two years she resembled the Michelin man was “Honey biscuits/biscuits” because her arms resembled an open can of refrigerated biscuits and I like the honey biscuits best lmao. 

Also, my family calls my children “Tada tots”. 

goodgodlemon

@antera23 Thank you! That show never gets old haha. Love that the 23 in your name matches your due date. 

jhems776

Also not very interesting.  It is a jumble of my first and last name plus a letter.  776 is from my AOL IM name. 

spacepiraterunner

As mentioned in another thread, our fur baby is named after a Battlestar Galactica character, so we nicknamed her the "Space Pirate" when people kept thinking we named her after the ubiquitous coffee company. She seems to think my primary role in life is to take her running and be her pillow. "SpacePiratePillow" seemed weird. 🤷
