GTKY: How did you come up with your s/n?

kleigh926 · March 2012

This board is boring right now. So.... I always like hearing how people came up with their s/n's.

Mine is boring. It's my first initial, middle name, and birthday.

Go!

KitT.Kat · March 2012

I used my cat's name. I'm pretty much terrible when it comes to making things like that up.

ETA- removed exclamation mark (really not that exciting...) and added

My first name is Ashley, and my favorite flowers are dahlias. They were the primary flower in my wedding bouquet and centerpieces.

It fits you... you still always seem happy and positive. I wish I could have your attitude just half the time! Haha I'm a naturally negative person

Toriables · March 2012

Mine also dates back to high school, when I listened to Tori Amos incessantly, and loved the book Les Miserables.

peppermint=kisses · March 2012

When I originally signed up I had my first & last name. A couple ladies suggested I change it so I ended up with peppermint = kisses b/c that's what was on the countertop this past Christmas! Funny I don't even like them but was tired of trying to come up with something meaningful! Ha

Pumpkin_Princess · March 2012

I tried about 15 others, which were all taken, before I went with "pumpkin" because of our October wedding and "princess" because I was frustrated about not being able to use the other names and couldn't think of anything else. I considered using work-rlated things, but I decided against it.

Yes One of my s/n's on another site is "CrazyChemGirl". I studied biochem as my first major before changing to nursing.

I love this!

Thanks! Where in the Rockies are you? I'm in Colorado~

MoonBeamLove · March 2012

I started off with my real name and once I came to the bump I wanted to change it.

I had no idea what to put, I suck at s/n's so I just picked something.

jenaw84 · March 2012

Jena is my first name, W is the first initial of my maiden name, and 84 is the year I was born.
I created my name when I joined the Knot, but that was just to get access to everything, I never joined in on the boards until I moved over here.

saintpaulJess · March 2012

City + nickname = saintpaulJess

Tamma254 · March 2012

Tamma is my first name, and 254 is the first three of my ZIP code. AOL fixed this as my SN when I signed up with them, so I've used it for pretty much everything since.... What in the world happened to my creativity?

Mushroom79 · March 2012

MH calls me mushroom and I was born in 79. Cheesball, I know

Same! Mine is my knot name.. when our wedding planner asked for one word I wanted to describe our wedding, I said "enchanted." Seemed magical and special and perfect. And it was!

6/16 is my birthday.

lovepink8 · March 2012

Mine is kind of random...all the others I tried were taken. I chose love just because love is great

and the color pink is my favorite color & the #8 was my DH sports number in high school. Kind of cheesy I know

Temp878586125009588 · March 2012

I came up with my name back when I was on the knot. Daisies are may favorite flower and I used them in my bouquets. I've also used it for something else as well.

Hey girls, hope you don't mind that I'm piggy-backing onto this. I'm from NoCo too and just wanted to say hi! I work in Greeley, but don't live there Wink

In response to the thread, my screen name is pretty lame and consists of DH's name and my name. Joined as a Knottie and didn't think much of it four years ago.

lobosabby · March 2012

My real name is Sabrina. My college friends started calling me Sabby and it's stuck (with them) ever since. I attended the University of New Mexico, so that's where the Lobo comes from. Lobosabby:-)

knitsandgiggles · March 2012

Most of my s/ns always end up being some variation of Jul-- so I decided to change things up when I created this one. I'm a lady who knits Smile

Kate504 · March 2012

After trying others and they didn't work so:

mrsjollybrown · March 2012

My friend calls my husband the Jolly Brown Giant. I didn't want a super long name so I cut the giant part off.

JumpAroundBucky · March 2012

It's from DH's alma mater, the University of Wisconsin. Their mascot is Bucky Badger, and at every game they play "Jump Around" and the crowd goes nuts. We lived in Downtown Madison for awhile, and we are both huge Badger fans. Thus, JumpAroundBucky was born.

I'm not very original either, mine is my initials and our wedding date.

DH and I are fans of Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and he always calls me Sweet Dee, so I took the sweet added my first initial and birth year. SweetC80.

Wahoo! A fellow '80 baby! 1980 Rocks.
The 80s were pretty awesome.

I'm another 1980 baby!!

My sn "Reyka" means "smoking" in Icelandic. I don't smoke, lol, but I love Iceland and have been twice in the past 3 years, including a 10-day circumnavigation of the country this past September with our (then) 10-month-old! I would move there if I could, it's such a beautiful place.

The capital city, Reykjavik, means "Smoky Bay" and was named that way because the steam rising from the geothermal vents surrounding the area looked like smoke to the early Viking settlers. I always liked that story and I loved seeing the geothermal activity during our trips there, so that's why I picked Reyka as my sn.

And the 9 is my lucky number. Born on Dec 9, married on May 9, etc.

KansasFarmMomma · March 2012

Mine is super simple...I'm a momma from Kansas who lives on a farm. Real creative huh? lol

fleursfish · March 2012

Mine is a portion of my name, from the Knot. And I should really change that.

BittyMang · March 2012

Nickname!

cellardoor7785 · March 2012

"Cellar door" is said to be the most phonetically beautiful phrase in the English language. I learned that while watching Donnie Darko. The numbers are my birthday.
