What does your screen name mean?

Some names are obvious, like Fi's and your name, wedding date. Some are not. I'm always curious!
So, how'd you come up with your screen
name?

My dad always called me wendypoo. Actually, he still does (I'm 33)! Sometimes I call him daddypoo just to drive my family crazy!

My FI gives nicknames to everyone important in his life. I have no idea why he does this, but he has been doing this before he met me.

His bestman Dave is BD, his friend Mike is Painter Mike, his friend Al is Al Z, and on and on.

One day he started calling me Peabody and so I used that.

That's even cuter since it (the name) really has no meaning!!!

Yeah, it was weird. One day he started calling me Peabody and I was answering him. He calls me Peab for short sometimes.

I think people who are around us when we are talking sometimes think we are weird, especially the people you know our names. I can tell, because they are like who is he talking too? And why is she answering?

Re: What does your screen name mean?

OK all, what screen name out there that hasn't been explained, do you think still needs explaining??? I can't think but I know there's one we haven't heard from, that I'm always like 'wonder what that means/stands for?'

Re: What does your screen name mean?

Jenny: short for my name, Jennifer

5150 has 2 meanings:
1. I'm a Van Halen fan (Hagar days)
2. just as VH titled their album, 5150 is police code for Mentally Disturbed Person (Mental Case) and since I'm trying to get into law enforcement, I saw it fitting.

Re: What does your screen name mean?

I'm Cheryl... and FI's nickname is Booch.
The nickname comes from his lastname... so I'll be a Booch in 4 months!

Hmm... We'll have to look around the boards and find someone...
Withthisring's old screen name was something unusual, and I always wondered what it meant. Of course now I can't even remember what it was!

It was a sorority name...

shamma's is too if I remember correctly

Re: What does your screen name mean?

it was ChippTriD - her sorority. I believe Shamma's is a take on the pronunciation of her real name, no?

Re: What does your screen name mean?

My name is Dawn..my friends call me Dawnie.
I probably should have picked a more original screen name!

Re: What does your screen name mean?

Mine's not very creative either.

K .....the first letter of my first name (Karen).
MC ...the two first letters of my maiden name.

WED...short for wedding, I guess.

So..... KMCWED.

BOOOOOOOOOOring.

I wish I could change it....

Re: What does your screen name mean?

Cookie was my nickname since I have been born....I am embarassed to admit this but.....my mother named me that because she nibbled on my toes when I was born and she said I tasted as sweet as a sugar cookie

I had to change the spelling and add the 11111 because Cookie was taken.
