mine is a mashup of my name. and the avatar is just a quick picture i found when i realized several months after i got on these boards that i had never uploaded one. and nola is one of my favorite cities, so a fleur de lis did the trick.

So sad the Saints lost this weekend! They put up a good fight tho!

Belthil

My screen name is the one I use everywhere. Years ago I was really big into LOTR and the hobbit and Belthil is elvish for divine radiance. I wanted to use a different screen name but wasn't feeling creative when I started my account.  My photo is my furbaby Henry back when he was a meager 50 lbs. He's almost double that now.

Blergbot

Someone had already taken my preferred sn, so I did a play on the expression "blerg," coined by Tina Fey on 30 Rock, one of my fav shows. The bot part is because, you know, I'm a robot? My avatar is the only pic from our engagement shoot that I'm allowed to use on the interwebs, since it doesn't show FI's face.

KatWAG

My SN has nothing to do with animals. My name is Kathryn and I used to work for Walgreens. H's family came up with it as a nickname.

Teddy917

My screen name is one of my husband's nicknames for me.

mimiphin

My screen name is my nickname from Jr. High (Mimi) and I was obsessed will dolphins thus the phin.
My old avatar was the Limited Edition Cinderella Louboutin's (hey a girl can dream!) Now its a happy dancing beaver. I am thinking of putting a maple leaf in my siggy but couldn't figure it out so after I set the date for the wedding I'm going to add the ticker and a little maple leaf all at the same time.
My siggy picture is of me on my FI's LandCuiser a couple years ago doing some off-roading a couple hours outside of our city. We jokingly say that it was our trip to "Africa".

Kauris

Mine is initials of my and FI first names and my current last name. I'm sad that I won't be a Smith anymore, there are so few of us left...

My avatar is a picture of us at a friend's wedding where I was given a lovely corsage to hand out programs!

@mimiphin --Yay, Canada!

photokitty

I'm a photographer (not weddings - I feel the need to say that every time so I don't the @ vendor alert) and in college my stupid human trick was being able to purr like a cat. When I typed photokitty into google I got a lot of hello kitty images, so I went with it and picked one of her shooting a camera.

pumpkinsandturkeys It's so hard to tell who is from Canada on this site, and our local boards are pitiful!

ShesSoCold

I've been accused of being an ass and I'm a huge Stones fan (She's so cold is a Stones song..) so it fits me well. I use this SN a lot. And my avatar is me in the area where we're having our DW and hope to move to in the next few years. 

SmileDamnit

SN is a nickname/initials combo and the avatar is my favorite "bench shot" taken along the Highline in NYC. I love bench shots…and jump shots…and all other shots random &/or of odd perspective.

@mimiphin I KNOW! I can't even remember the last time I went to the Toronto board. I'm also a little bitter about it because Ontario does NOT revolve around Toronto (despite what many Torontonians think haha) -- where are the better-defined regional boards?? Provinces are definitely too big for province-wide ones, and having just two major-city ones is ridiculous.

sofakingmad

I like this thread.

I used to have a different SN, but it had spaces and therefore I couldn't be tagged when they made the changes. 

DragonBlood13 is because of a joke from me being on a dating site and a guy who messaged me and 13 because on TK/TB/TN there is already a DragonBlood.  Who knew?

Jells2dot0

Jells is my mom's nickname for me. 2dot0 stands for 2.0 because I was on here as Jells1107 when planning my first wedding. So, 2.0 = second version. My avatar is a pic my photographer took of my bouquet and ring at my wedding.

Chipmunk415

FI started calling me chipmunk due to how my cheeks would plump up every time he made me smile- cute like a chipmunk. The 415 comes from April 15, the day we started dating exclusively (also tax day, so nice and convenient to have them rolled in one!)

Pic is from that inner bride thing since my technical abilities are severely stunted.

MadHops21

My name is a spanish version of my real name apparently. 

In 2nd grade, we had to come up with Spanish names for Spanish class. Teacher said Kelcita is the actual Spanish version of my name, though I don't really know if it's true. It's stuck since then. 

ETA Oh, and I have a bunny. Hence, avatar

thejucheidea

Oh, and since I apparently didn't read the instructions correctly. My avatar is from Kate Beaton's comic about the velocipedestrienne because you see me rollin up pops you best step aside: comic here.

Senecaf

I'm not very creative. Mine is my first nam ande last initial. My avatar is one of our engagement pictures.

chkmeowt

mine is the same screen name i've used for pretty much all message boards and things. Part of both my names.

wajohnson09

FI and my initials, FI's last name, 2009 was the year we met (New Years Eve)

Angusaur

My name is Angela, friends call me Ang, Angie, Angus, Angusaur, An-gay-la, Angeroo. My favorite is Angusaur.

Av is the browning symbol of the buck & doe just cause it reminds me of FI and myself.

fre3doms

Mine is my nickname/e-mail I have had since 2003. Plays off my first name and its meaning. I like having the 3 in there cause it's never taken online.

My avatar is a picture my friend made for me for another site.

natswild

@pumpkinsandturkeys, @mimiphin, that is so true! Be nice to get more activity on our boards, that's for sure! I'm live in Sexsmith, Alberta, how about you?

RWS2011

HisGirlFriday13  I have been meaning to tell you, I love that movie!  I am a huge fan of the classics, and this was one of the first I shared with FI.  He hadn't even seen Casablanca, The Shining, or Chinatown.  I tell ya...

Anyway, the screen name is a bit of a joke on myself.  B and I had a great discussion on (I think) our first date about where we would like a successful relationship to go.  I said I would eventually like for it to lead to marriage.  He expressed his reservations, having been divorced.  We both agreed that taking time to really be sure about our feelings and compatibility was important.  Flash forward about 3 years, I was primed and ready to wed.  He was still a little cautious.  I initiated numerous discussions (mostly mature ones) regarding our timelines, etc.  After we agreed on a timeline that worked for us both, I joked that I had been bitten by a radioactive wedding spider: RWS.  2011 must be when this life altering spider bite occurred.  

The avatar is another fabulous Tarra creation.    

csuave

Cool stories!

C is my first initial and suave is from that so awful you have to laugh 90's song Rico Suave.  Rico Suave is kind of an inside joke with DH and I.  We actually entered our reception to that song.

I'm not very creative, so no avatar.

I saw your avvie the other day and was like, oh my goodness, it's a guy and gal buck mark!  It's really cool.

Oh Hell NO!!!
My Great Aunt and Uncle live in Sexsmith!!!! To Cool!!!!!
I'm in Williams Lake, the Vancouver local board is useless for me.

CLoGreenEyes

Now that my new username is approved (thanks, @KnotPorscha!), I will play! So, CLo comes from some combination of my first and last name, CLoGreen meant to sound like the rapper, but with Eyes at the end because I have green eyes. Hence, CLoGreenEyes.

My avatar, which I will probably change soon, is one that Tarra made for me when I started posting under my original username, Amapola14. She did a heart with the little waves because I am a nursing student, about halfway to graduating.

MrsMack10612

Mine is nothing terribly creative. H and I have the male/female versions of the same name and they shorten/nickname to the same thing.  In effort to clarify lots of folks call my H Mack (our last name is an Mc name).  So I am MrsMack and the numbers are our wedding date (possibly just the year, I actually forget how much of the date I used).

My old screen name when I first started posting was my first/middle initial maiden name.  Decided I wasn't happy with how "revealing" it was.
