GTKY- Explain

UnofficiallyLO · September 2014

Your Username.

I'm sure some are pretty obvious but there has to be a few good ones out there.

RedDawnsRevenge · September 2014

It's a combination of quotes, all to do with the Red Dawn. Sir Alfred Lord Tenyson's epic poem "The Coming of Arthur", a quote from LOTR from Gandhalf, and an old sailors saying. The Red Dawn is a popular theme in literature, and custom.

zoopsiedaisy · September 2014

I recently changed mine because my other was pretty easy to figure out my real name. So I picked this because I made up a song for LO that she loves with "oopsie daisy little lady" in it. I added the z because there are a lot of oopsiedaisy's out there.

MamaFantastic · September 2014

I don't know why I picked spasticfantastic originally. It was 5 or 6 years ago. When I learned spastic was an offensive term to Europeans, I changed the first part to mama.

UnofficiallyLO · September 2014

My nickname was Lo then I was married and those were my initials so I was officiallyLO then I got divorced.

I had no idea that was an offensive term. Learn something new everyday! I'll have to google it.

Talltrees82 · September 2014

TallTrees82 was my username on the web dating site where I met DH 9 years ago. My cousin was using talltrees as an email handle and I loved it and "borrowed" it! My birth year is '82. Also I'm an outdoorsy kinda girl, mature trees was on our must-haves list when we were house hunting. Screw granite countertops, give me some trees!

LizChad09 · September 2014

Mine's kinda a no brainer, my name is Liz, DH is Chad and we got married in 09. This is my account from Knot days

My handle for everything. Facebook. Aim. MySpace. Yahoo. Gmail. Xbox. Playstation.

Never had to add any numbers

ricekez · September 2014

I started using ricekez back when AOL Instant Messenger was a thing, I think. . .
Rice is my maiden name.
K- first initial
E- original middle initial (currently, my maiden name is my middle name.)
Z - for St. Zita, because I'm religious n stuff. She's my patron saint.

Keckers · September 2014

Keckers is a childhood nickname somehow derived from my first name (and has nothing in common with it except for the first two letters).

Twirple · September 2014

My favorite color is, and has always been, purple. My dad used to call me Purple Twirple, then just Twirple.

michaelad3 · September 2014

Mine's super original. First name, maiden name initial, and 3 just because

joyfullyfound · September 2014

Ugh, it's boring. It was my old email address when I first signed up for The Knot way back when. Had I known it would become my username on these forums I would have been more creative, haha!

I think your avatar is actually a violin, but I always see a caramel apple on a stick!

Zazu is the bird on the Lion King. I was given the nickname by an autistic boy who is obsessed with Disney and giving nicknames. 13 is my lucky number and I added it when Zazu was already taken

BuggasMom · September 2014

I call my daughter "Bugga" and... I'm her mom..... Ugh So creative.

my screen name is so lame. I have wanted to change it since day one, but i was too lazy to figure out how to do it. So it stays.

Nxy · September 2014

I have a cat named Nyx and I mixed up the letters and am too lazy to change it..

kmos816 · September 2014

K- first name initial, Kae- middle name, w- first initial in my maiden name, 816- birthday; super creative I know! I've had it since joining the knot.

hordol · September 2014

It's just some letters from my first and middle name, but I switched two of them around. No deep meaning here!

RedBird11 · September 2014

RedBird is a nickname for the St. Louis Cardinals and 11 is for the last time they won the World Series and also the number of times they won. I'm a huge fan.

AmberLiz99 · September 2014

My first name is Amber, Liz used to be a nick name of sorts, and 9 is my favorite number

Dixon813 · September 2014

From the knot - last name and our wedding day. When we created the account, DH was involved... But I don't think he ever did anything else on the knot!

hlm184 · September 2014

It's the user name my college assigned me.

janellemj928 · September 2014

Janelle is my first name. M is my middle initial. J is my last initial. 9/28 is my birthday

baileymama3 · September 2014

When I got engaged I joined weight watchers.... It was a whatever username (my dogs name +mama+random number), I then joined theknot soon after, same username for ease and then thebump and had no idea how to change it until it was to late IMO.

hpanabaker · September 2014

Mine is also from the Knot but still pretty unoriginal. It's my first initial and my maiden name.

eireyes · September 2014

My original SN was my first name, middle initial, last name. I changed it when I decided it probably wasn't the best thing if I didn't want somebody totally creeping on me without my approval ;-)

When I changed it, I was going to use Irish Eyes Troy (Troy being my maiden name) but there was already another A14 Irish Eyes, and I didn't want to make things confusing. I tweaked it a little bit and mashed together Eire (Irish for Ireland) and Eyes and voila! Eireyes.

Ashleypixie · September 2014

My name is Ashley and one of my nick names growing up was pixie because I was so small. My other nicknames have been Woog (my family calls me that, idk) Ash hole, and G-Meyer which I always used as an abbreviation of my last name when it was too long to write somewhere. Oh and G-funk. I really want to change it but I don't know how.

chichi589 · September 2014

My name is Chelsea and cheech or chichi was my nickname in dance when I was younger since there was 2 other Chelsea's. 589 is my birth month and year nothing too exciting!

nicole mackenzie · September 2014

Names I like...

I don't want people to figure out who I really am. I probably get the paranoia from my dad, lol. The Internet is not safe!!!!

ladygali · September 2014

My first name and birthday. I should probably change it but I tried once and it didn't work. Meh.

olenkapdx · September 2014

Olenka is my cat and PDX is Portland (its airport code, but it gets referred that way in general sometimes), where I live.

rockstarlaw · September 2014

When I was going to law school (before I knew anything anything about really practicing law) I thought I either wanted to be a criminal lawyer or an entertainment lawyer (often, the same thing!). Rockstarlaw sounded better than murdererlaw or assaulterlaw. Since I really ended up pursuing neither of those career paths, I like to just think of myself as a rockstar who happens to be a lawyer too.

MaglioMomma · September 2014

Nothing too creative.. part of our last name.

strawberrytree · September 2014

I have reddish/strawberry blonde-ish hair. DH and I went on vacation to Cyprus once and they had strawberry trees there, marked by signs. We'd never heard of them before and thought they were funny...took a picture of me standing there like a tree. I'm terrible at remembering screen names so I needed something that wouldn't require a bunch of numbers and didn't want to use anything identifying like my name...not many strawberry trees out there. My avatar is a pic of the sign that says Strawberry Tree.
