Where did your user name come from??

[sedaterman]

It's what I do. CRNA

 

[Socrets]

It's the same name I've been using online for the past five to six years. The story is that it's Socrates misspelled.
S-o-c-r-a-t-e-s
S-o-c-r-e-t-s.

 

[univibe88]

I used to be a very avid guitar player/hobbist and a big Jimi Hendrix fan. One of the effects pedals he used was called the "univibe." I've used it as an internet screen name for the last 12 years or so on various boards.

They are fun to play through.

Fun thread!

My husband calls me Lola Getz, as in:

whatever Lola wants, Lola gets!

let me guess...he has watched a lot of Lethal Weapon 2...?

 

[Lola Getz]

let me guess...he has watched a lot of Lethal Weapon 2...?

Well, no, but he'd probably prefer people think that than to admit he's a big fan of musicals! "Damn Yankees" and that song stuck in his mind for weeks.

lollol well there has gotta be some kind of balance in the world...

 

[Warbaby]

Kids that were fathered by GIs during WWII, whether at home or abroad, were once referred to as Warbabies. I was born in '42, so...

 

[Miss 1929]

Hey Warbaby!

About time you showed up. Folks, Warbaby is the swell friend who turnd me on to the Lounge initially... and look at me now!

 

[Idledame]

Because I am finally retired!!!!!Yeah!!!

 

[MegamiOrchard]

I have a tattoo with the Kanji for Megami (Japanese for Goddess). Orchard was my grandparents' surname, and they were the most wonderfully stylish people. So it works for me.

 

[Lulu-in-Ny]

The title of Louise Brook's autobiography is Lulu in Hollywood, and I'm in New York, so...
It's what I use pretty much everywhere.

 

[imoldfashioned]

I guess no originality with mine, I'm a librarian with 5,000 books from the 20's to the 60's in my basement.

There are several librarians on the Lounge including me (though I'm in administration now). I have loads of books too; occupational hazard I'm thinking...

 

[imoldfashioned]

zaika is russian for rabbit...or bunny, i guess. my russian speaking american friends and i came up with nicknames one day many years ago. one was "yozhka" (or hedgehog), another "cheburashka" (the name of the sweetest little cartoon character ever). i called dibs on "zaika." i used that pretty much everywhere online since it's easy to type and remember. those who know me think that it's appropriate. [huh]

Aren't Russian terms of endearment just the best? I've always thought they sound particularly adorable. I love cheburashka; I'll have to google that character.

 

[Barbigirl]

It's what I do. CRNA

Brilliant....I work with an anesthesiologist who goes by jazzgasman, he plays the sax too.

 

[Adele]

Being a fan of Ms. Williams, I just took her middle name as my user name. Not very creative of me, I know.

 

[ICannotPlayBass]

Being a fan of Ms. Williams, I just took her middle name as my user name. Not very creative of me, I know.

I might be able to one-up you on not being very creative; despite months of an assortment of exercises, I am unable to roll my wrists outward enough to correctly hold an electric bass.

 

[Sunland Sare]

Sunland Sare - i come from a place called Sunderland, but is pronounced Sunland, and Sare is my name (well, short for Sarah)

rubbish, isn't it?

 

[ehappy]

ehappy = essentially happy because that's what I am.

Despite it all, I try to remain positive, happy, and upbeat. Happiness is essential for a good life.
