GTKY: what does your sn mean?

+Matilda+ · June 2012

I just changed my sn and it made me wonder what everyone else's sn means. mine now is just a nickname my boss gave me because my name is crystal and my coworker is kristin and when i started it was really confusing and we never knew who he yelling for so he started calling me matilda. ha

NICHOLE84 · June 2012

It's my middle name and the year is was born.

jessandandy09 · June 2012

Mine is boring, I am Jess and my husband is Andy. When i made it in2009 it was for the knot and i wanted people to be able to find us easily.

Harper'smom · June 2012

It means that I lacked both creativity and foresight the day I created my account. I had no intention of participating on the boards and just wanted a name I would remember. The idea that we might have another baby someday did not occur and now I feel bad that D is excluded. But...not bad enough to give up my post points :-)

katieh1017 · June 2012

Katie - my first name

H - my last name initial

1017- wedding anniversary

Nothing interesting!

metucker · June 2012

Mine is also boring. It is a combo of my first and last name and was my college email when I signed up for the knot many years ago.

Monkeybabe · June 2012

My H calls me monkey and I was planning to have a baby.

BabyMakes6 · June 2012

Six in our family now.

Gracypug · June 2012

Gracypug- Gracy was my dog and she was a pug. Nothing special just easily remembered since I have used it for everything for years. Not very creative at all.

see18haak · June 2012

First part of my maiden name and first part of my married name.18 is my favorite number.

LeslieBear · June 2012

FI calls me panda bear sometimes...so LeslieBear is my first name and part of a nickname.

+Matilda+ · June 2012

Monkeybabe:
My H calls me monkey and I was planning to have a baby.

DH calls me monkey too!! For no reason haha!

bumpuser5917313 · June 2012

It's been my go-to name since high school. It used to be my aol account name too. I'm obsessed with the Muppets (and have since worked for the Jim Henson Creature Shop) and the MA is because I was born in Massachusetts. I went back to MA for college too. It's just easy because that's what I've been known by for probably 14 years now.

learningfromlife · June 2012

My original SN was from the knot and it was my married last name and our wedding date. I changed it to learningfromlife because I didn't like my old SN and had a slightly creative moment.

gekeler6 · June 2012

gekeler is my old last name from my previous marriage and my girls' last name. I wanted to change it years ago, but made this account before. When I came back to the bump I didn't know how to change it, and my email was the same (it's different now). I would love to change it, but I think people wouldn't know who I was if I did. The 6 stood for my family of 6 at the time. How do you change your sn? I was thinking about changing it to something else. Any ideas of what it could be? I'm not creative at all.

Someone said that you MIGHT be able to get it changed by the bump gods by emailing them at community@thebump.com I just used an old email and created a new one though...I just thought about nicknames and something that would be easy to remember. I also have used latsyrc before which is my first name backwards. i figured that it would be easier for the girls on the board to remember matilda so i chose that one instead. maybe try a combo of your kids names? or your first middle and last name?

Thanks for the info. I might change it or just keep it.....I'm probably just too lazy to change it!

Tambcat · June 2012

TAMB is mine and my H's initials all jumbled up. And I like cats.

That's funny.

I'm a hot air balloon pilot. This is my go to screen name. It has been (or a version of it) since the days of aol because I was so into hot air ballooning. 37 is my favorite number.

MsCat19 · June 2012

Mine is super boring... I'm divorced so I used Ms. until I got remarried, Cat is my real first name, and 19 is my favorite number because in grade school I was 19 in the grade books almost every year!

kissyfitt · June 2012

My name is Kristin but growing up my family always called me Krissy or Kissy.

So a kissyfitt is like a hissyfit.

Two t's on the end because it looks more balanced that way (also why we chose to spell Jack's mn as Elliott, it just looks better).

in my life · June 2012

Mine is for the Beatles song "In My Life", which was the first dance song in our wedding.

PinkPeony6210 · June 2012

It's my favorite flower + Ella's birthdate.

gisa886 · June 2012

My nn from childhood.

Kdrake8 · June 2012

Drake is the beginning of my last name

8 is my favorite number

FusionLMT · June 2012

i'm a licensed massage therapist (LMT) and my company name has Fusion in the name

mrs+harlow · June 2012

I have an obsession with Old Hollywood Screen Sirens...particularly Jean Harlow.

mrs_j_may_08 · June 2012

Jaymay is a silly nn that one of my friends had for my husband (name is Jason, last name begins with 'May'). We got married in 08, making me 'mrsjaymay.'

Beener0514 · June 2012

Beener was the nickname I was given by my uncle when I was still in the womb. 5-14 is my birthday. Nothing too creative from me.

kkfeb04 · June 2012

My sn is from theknot days. K is my initial, K is DH's initial and we were getting married in Feb. 2004.

AshleyC0117 · June 2012

I desperately want a new SN but I can't handle the idea of starting my post counts over.

Bean47 · June 2012

My mom called me bean and 47 was the year she was born.

Johlise · June 2012

Mine is the first 3 letters of DH name and the last 4 of my name John & Alise = Joh lise. Smile

I wish I had only done the first two letters of DH name... oh well.

Johlise · June 2012

I would change mine as well if it wasn't for that. I don't know if you still can but if you send a message to Bump Kathleen you might be able to have them change it.. I know some of the girls on my wedding month board had theirs changed and kept their post count.

kanatine · June 2012

It's my traditional Native American name. Pronounced gunna-dee-neh. Not very interesting, but it's available on almost any type of website where you need a username. :-)

lauranicole91 · June 2012

I'm not that creative, Laura is my first name, Nicole is my middle name, and I was born in 91.

I will try this!

Torani · June 2012

My college sorority gave everyone nicknames when we joined. Mine was Torani, after the coffee syrup. I usually use it as a SN because it's only rarely taken.

erniebufflo · June 2012

Ernie Bufflo is a nickname I gave mysel as a toddler. It became my online handle when I started my blog and wasn't sure I wanted to use my real name. Now I have IRL friends who I met via the blog and twitter who totally call me Ernie instead of Sarah.
