User Names
 

There are some funny user names on here and i was just wondering why members picked that name to use ?

Re: User Names
 

When I joined I tried for the user name Jo but someone already had it, so the first name I thought of was Grego which is how my driving licence number starts, strange but it was the first thing that came to mind!

Re: User Names

Re: User Names
 

Mine is because I couldn’t think of anything else at the time. :idunno:

Re: User Names
 

Well mine was a desperate attempt to correct a stanley username, as when i went to my 1st meet - i shocked eveeryone being a girlie cos they thought i was a man by username i had :eek: - thanks Roy for re genderising me:D

Re: User Names
 

Mine was because its like my last name, plus its an email addy and how i got the email addy was because my mum had been playing her records and the lp was out on the side - shillelagh and shamrocks by bing crosby. So i picked that and thats that.

Re: User Names

Re: User Names
 

As in ta-dah as in a suprise thingy

Re: User Names
 

Re: User Names
 

I obviously put a lot of time and thought into mine!

Re: User Names
 

Re: User Names
 

In my defence I did join at a time when it would have been a bit daft for me to be called something else - what would have been the point of someone called Cupcakes (and yes, it is a nickname that I used to get called) talking about the subjects that I end up talking about. Although a bit of anonymity would be good sometimes - I could say a lot more than I can say at the moment!

Re: User Names
 

You could always ask Roy to ban you and then come back as somebody else. ;)

Re: User Names
 

In the days of austerity when everything was on ration I was, and still am, partial to a fruit slice better known as a jam buttie. Then when the call to arms came (I volunteered actually) my new navy shipmates nicknamed me jambuttie because at tea time there was always jam, plenty of bread if only a marginal pat of butter. In spite of that I would ladle copious amounts of jam onto a few slices of bread and wolf them down.

When the CB rage hit town I was jambutty on there and now jambutty on the Internet.

Re: User Names
 

my name is the one my mum and dad gave me

Re: User Names
 

when I first started at Barclays they created logon accounts based on your first 6 letters of your surname and your initial. hence entwisi

It also worked on teh net for me as there is a physic lecturer at Manchester uni called Ian Entwistle who had grabbed ian entwistle logins all over teh place. I've never found a site where someone has already registered entwisi so I stuck with it everywhere.

Re: User Names
 

Mine is because it just popped into my head. I did find slinky the dog in toy story quite cute though. And I am slinky.

Re: User Names
 

Maybe it isn't used as often in the UK, but I know a couple of ladies with the nickname "Mel." Short for Melanie.

Re: User Names
 

How did the horse react?:eek:

Rindy, your post was far too good an opportunity for a bit of fun!

Re: User Names
 

Every Melanie I know in the UK is addressed as MEL...... me included lol. I actually prefer Mel to Melanie and when people call me Melanie I think I have done something wrong cos that's the only time people call me Melanie.:D

Re: User Names
 

Heheheheheehe must be a mel thing that same here:D I dont like the anie bit on end LOL

Re: User Names
 

It wouldnt let me have either the latter one i dont like anyways, so upon joining i tried a lot of things in fact took 2 days to actually find a username not taken:rolleyes: Mel [anie] here locally is a very popular name:D in the end i went with a crappy one only for it to accept till people got my gender wrong in fact scared a few LOL, so with Roys help i got me sorted as i am now:D

Re: User Names

Re: User Names

Re: User Names

Re: User Names
 

I had NO choice Mick logged me on to Accyweb. when I found out he'd signed me up has a member I decided to take a look at it and then I was hooked.

Re: User Names
 

yep got to agree anne its pretty addictive:)

Re: User Names
 

Mine's because I've worked in the fitted kitchen business for 30-odd years, I still see old customers from many years ago, who can't remember my name, (Gerard), so they refer to me as 'the kitchen man'
The reason for the three capital letters is because they are the initials of the company I work for.

Re: User Names
 

For any curious new floks:

Lanc - Grandpa Hall born in Ashton-Under-Lyne, Lancashire (1898), died in Accrington (!980)

York - Nana Hall (Woodhead), born in Bradford, Yorkshire (1906)

Yank - BEA, born in Rhode Island (New England) so my southern friends refer to me as a "yank."

Clever eh?

Re: User Names
 

Just curious UKCowboy. What is the definition of a cowboy over there. Is it just the hat or do you also ride, rope, brand, spit, chew, etc? I've done all those things and wondered if any different in England?

Brian

Just thought, would this be an appropriate thread starter?

Re: User Names
 

ShortStuff just sprang to mind when I was logging on for the 1st time.....I'm actually 6'6" so I thought it was a touch ironic too!

Re: User Names

Re: User Names
 

Mine is the name of my dog

Re: User Names
 

Ya don't say:D

Re: User Names
 

Retlaw has coined a new one for me which I love - with his usual dry sense of humour he calls me : "La Donna Mobelay"....brilliant!:D:D:D

Re: User Names
 

Thats a sign he likes yeh.:D

Re: User Names
 

I might change my flight home then and pop round to pay him a visit:D

Re: User Names
 

Don't you dare, you will get a shock if you do, ever seen Freddy Kruger, I was his stand in.
Shut it Jay and Cashy.:D
Retlaw.

Re: User Names
 

First time I've ever seen you write in normal english and not "Lanky" - perhaps you would care to join me, Cashy and his "Princess" in the Imposta tomorrow around one..he has promised to wear his best teeth and I will have a rose in my buttonhole. I am a true romantic ...

Fraid i wouldn't recognise Mr Kruger, don't watch those kind of films...;):D

By the way my new signature and avatar are in homage to your nice nickname for me -much appreciated!

Re: User Names
 

my names emma, shortened to ema because my step sisters called emma as well and it stopped confusion when we lived together.... and i'm a mum, exciting eh?

Re: User Names
 

We'd never have guessed Ema:D

Re: User Names
 

ive noticed a number of people have changed theirs - HOW?

Re: User Names
 

Indeed Matty lad, i grew up and lost mi tart ;)

Re: User Names

Re: User Names
 

Ey, cheeky

Re: User Names
 

Ya we even had a member take the name of a Poet until we found out who he was:rolleyes:

Re: User Names

Re: User Names
 

Offer to buy mick a few pints in the Railway on a Saturday lunch usually works Jidi:D

Re: User Names
 

Or just ask him like i did Matty

Re: User Names
 

Or ask Roy like I did a loooong time ago when he still living round the corner from me in Gods country.

Re: User Names
 

What was your name Neil:dflam::D

Re: User Names
 

You will have to search the site and try and work it out. When someone has a name change it changes on all their posts but any time they have been quoted it does not change ;)

Re: User Names
 

Um I'll give it a miss, I'm a lazy So and so and can't be assed:D

Re: User Names
 

Like I said on the other thread, I named myself on AccyWeb Bee because I am fast like a Bee and because I needed 3 letters as my username.

Re: User Names
 

I can think of three letters but they wouldn't be BEE:rolleyes::D

Re: User Names
 

Another thread revival! Oh well, wasnt a member first time round... As most know I am a plumber and heating engineer, as the industry has split up over time I work more with gas.. hence derekgas!

Re: User Names
 

I thought it had something to do with eating onions:confused:
