Why the Bump Name?

RoxRing · February 2012

Okay, so I'm having fun reading the posts tonight - I totally should go to bed early since E gets up 5 times a night...if this was done already then shoot me down, but why did you pick your bump screen name?

RoxRing - Roxy and Ringo are my cats.

aml+japan · February 2012

I used to have a mouse named Ringo, till she got pregnant and became a Ringa. My handle is the first letters of my, MH's, and LO's names plus where we live.

kagl08 · February 2012

kagl - K - Kris (DH), A - Ashley (me), G - Grace (DD), L - Luke (DS)

08 - the year we were married

ETA: I used to be "graciesmomma" because Grace is my DD, but then I wanted to include Luke so I made a new SN in October...

pennysuedog · February 2012

Mine is pretty obvious, it is after my dog Penelope Susannah "Pennysuedog"

Liz4444 · February 2012

I'm Liz and 4 is my lucky number, so 4 of them!

mrsgabus · February 2012

Pretty sure my bump name explains itself lol

laabeja · February 2012

La Abeja is the bee in Spanish; nickname because kids thought my family was calling me "the bee" when they would call me "The B" (short for Brooke, my middle name).

Ringo is a girl...she was named before we got her and I didn't want to confuse her and change her name. Don't ask me if there's any reasoning to that because Roxy used to be Rocky.

EloiseWeenieSkipperdee · February 2012

I recently changed my SN *note old SN in sig- if you even remember me, lol* because I wanted something that nothing to do with my name IRL. Eloise was my favorite book as a little kid, and I added her pets since every other Eloise SN I tried was already in use.

ETA: for those not familiar with the book, Eloise and Weenie are the pic in the avatar. Skipperdee didn't make the cut, but he's a shoe wearing, raisin eating turtle.

GoodToBeGeib · February 2012

My name is from when I was planning my wedding- Geib is my married name, therefore it's "GoodToBeGeib"

CMonkey515 · February 2012

Cmonkey because my last name starts with a C, and when I was in the first few weeks of pregnancy I used to call LO my seamonkey. Plus my anniversary 5/15

joolz17 · February 2012

Pretty self-explanatory. My nickname is joolz but that name was taken so I added my favourite number.

Gipper0809 · February 2012

My daughter's name is Reagan, hence, The Gipper. As in Ronald Reagan. I thought it was creative.

Stewartandmaura · February 2012

Mine is totally boring...DH's name and mine. If I do anything other than that I forget it!

anasazi17 · February 2012

Anasazi is an ancient tribe of Native Americans. In my previous life I was an archaeologist...this was my childhood favorite tribe. 17 is my lucky number and my birthday

shannykay · February 2012

Shanny is a nickname my aunt gave me years ago (first name Shannon) and Kay is my middle name

rockdragon · February 2012

Rock because I am a geologist and dragon because I may have a small obsession.

Nita2603 · February 2012

Mine is pretty boring, too - Nita is my nick name, but that was taken, so I added my b-day: march 26. And because in Europe, we write the day first, it's 2603, not 0326. Meh. I am not very creative.

blu-eyedwife · February 2012

My dog is Ringo!

I started on The Knot back in 2005. I'm terrible at creating screennames - in fact, my first AOL name was my dad's creation. And I think it took me a week to come up with my Twitter handle. I asked DH what I should use as my screenname and he picked "blu-eyedbride."

Well obviously, once I got married, I wasn't still a bride. So I changed it to blu-eyedwife. It doesn't have the same ring to it, but it works with the theme.

lynnblack · February 2012

Mine is a name I used in a RPG. I just like it.

jonnygurl76 · February 2012

jonny = a nickname i was given years ago

gurl = because i am one. i spelled it wrong on purpose, i tend to take myself too serious so i wanted a silly name.

76 = the year i was born. Cool

paulahartson · February 2012

LOL - I picked it because I can remember it. I thought it was only for logging in! Now I am stuck with it. I am so goofy sometimes :-D

stephdhg · February 2012

Stephanie Is my name

Down Home Groove - A band my husband was in. They have since broken up after i think 7 years??

seb09 · February 2012

My first daughter's initials and the year she was born.

barefootandboots · February 2012

Originally my sn was my full name because I was just trying to use something to remember my login by and I didn't know of the communities. After that I figured I'd change it, so I changed it to my blog name :-). Barefoot is me because I'm always barefooted and boots is my husband for his combat boots.

JillD2011 · February 2012

My name is Jill, and my last name begins with D. I registered on 2011. I am oh-so creative and witty.

LadyMadrid08 · February 2012

Lady Madrid is the name of a song by my favorite Spanish bad.and I thought it fitting since I am a lady and live in Madrid. The 08 is my favorite number and the year I graduated high school.

mars37810 · February 2012

I made my when I found the Knot when we were planning our wedding and I didn't know about the community boards. It is actually my first initial, maiden name, and year I was born. I should look into getting it changed but I have no clue that to change it to since I'm not very creative and the last time I had to create a screen name was middle school.

scarlettoctober · February 2012

Scarlett O'Hara is my favorite literary character and October is my favorite month.

Chunstad · February 2012

When I signed up in 2007, we weren't even engaged yet-I was wishful thinking back then. Like AA said, I thought I was just signing up for a login name. It's very boring. C for my first initial 'Cory'. Hunstad was my maiden name. Pretty fancy, huh?

araine10 · February 2012

My first name is Amanda so thats why there is an A. My middle name is Raine (after my grandfather, my parents really wanted to use his name for their first born, if I was a boy it would be my first name). In high school there were four other Amanda's in my class so everybody just went by my middle name. 10 is my favourite number.

freckleface77 · February 2012

I have a ton of freckles on my face and I'm an old bag, born in 1977 lol.

[Deleted User] · February 2012

Years ago I was registering for something, and I couldn't think of a name. I was looking around the room, and the first word I fixed on was overture, on the back of a CD. I used that, and for no real reason, I've used it whenever I have to choose a screen name. It's actually served me pretty well, as it's short, and usually not taken. So if you see it on another website, it's probably me.

amyc216 · February 2012

My name is Amy C and my b'day is 2/16

e_delo · February 2012

My name is Elizabeth Delores but in high school my name was to long so the school put Elizabeth Delo on everything , my friends turned it into a joke and started calling me "delo". When I was setting up my email address in high school delo was taken so I used e_delo and have been using it as a handle every since

LauriJean_2009 · February 2012

First Name + Middle Name + Year I joined "The Knot" and got married.

uberbitter · February 2012

In college I was in the Drinking Band - I mean, Marching Band - specifically in the mellophone line. We had a reputation for being rather bitter and snarky (probably because we were awesome but never got any good parts written for us). I hang around a couple homebrew forums as well and the people there probably think it means I like really hoppy beer.

lavender12_81 · February 2012

I love the color purple .

I played the mellophone in marching band too! High school and college. Mellos rock :-D

ETA my sn is boring, just my nn (real name is Nicole) and my birthday. I didn't think enough when I joined about making a cool name either... oh well.
