What does your username mean?

Ember01 · March 2011

I'm wondering why people decided on their Knot username?

What does it mean?

Ember01 · March 2011

Ember was my camp name when I was a counselor (we didn't tell kids our real name)

01 was the year I was a camp counselor for the first time

sapphirebaby926 · March 2011

I changed my username a few months after I joined TK because my original one had my first and middle names in it and I wasn't comfortable with that. I couldn't come up with anything more creative at the time and I wish I had found something that didn't have 'baby' in it now but I don't care enough to change it again. And as I'm sure you all know by now I chose 'sapphire' because my e-ring is a sapphire and it's also my favorite gemstone - 926 is our wedding date.

AudgiePodge · March 2011

Mine is an IRL nickname with an extra "i" added.

witchysheryl · March 2011

I used to say "I'm awesome" if I did something silly/clumsy. And my step mom started calling me Awesome Jenny B

Hahaha... I love it!

Hazel_B · March 2011

My eye colour and an initial.

peekaboo2011 · March 2011

Mine is the nickname my dad had/still has calls me. As a baby, my favorite game was Peek-A-Boo, to the point where I would play for hours and not get bored. 2011 is the year I'm graduating from college.

zipis1 · March 2011

Zip is 1. It's technically three words. I based it around my favorite Beanie Baby, Zip, back in the 90s when the interwebz were just starting to grow. I wanted it to be Zip_is_#1 but Yahoo wouldn't let me, so I just shortened it to Zipis1.

tuarceatha · March 2011

I've been called jenjen by various loved ones in the past. jenjennifer sounds cute to me and f is the inital of my last name. not too exciting. ha

Beads921 · March 2011

I love to craft, especially making jewelry with beads (and I paint as well, but that's not relevant). 921 stands for mine and BFs anniversary - September 21.

leia1979 · March 2011

I like this thread!

When I was a little kid, I wore my hair in two waist-length braids every day. My classmates thought it was fun to twist my hair into two big buns like Princess Leia. 1979 is the year I was born.

loves2shop4shoes · March 2011

Well, I think mine is self explanatory. I love to shoe shop. I love to shop in general, but shoe shopping is my fave. I always said, if law school didn't work out and I didn't want to go back to school, I'd be a personal shopper.

I always think of my school mascot when I see your name! I was an Akron Zip and our mascot was Zippy the kangroo.

sparkles88 · March 2011

I like sparkly stuff. I'm like a fish, and I get distracted by anything that has the slightest amount of shininess to it. Also BF jokes about wanting to get a pet bear and name it Sparkles. I was born in 1988, so that's where the numbers come from.

[Deleted User] · March 2011

Amsy is my nickname, and i liked robots at one point. I thought amsybot was cute. It kind of reminds me of the botlfy though. When I think of that, I think of the poor desert mice that are infested with giant botfly maggots

Ember, I am a Zip too! I graduated in May of '09.

When I was younger I used to love the name skyler. I don't know why I loved it or even where I first heard it. 1108 is my birthday which is November 8th.

KD+BC · March 2011

Mine is my initials plus MH's initials...corny!

bsidebella · March 2011

I used to be a radio deejay. When I started there, I wanted to have a cute on air name, so I decided to go with a shortened version of my full name - Bella. My show was called "Bella on the B-Side", meaning I played the songs that mainstream radio did not play. When our station switched to a clock format (playing certain genres of music at certain times), I changed my name and my show - B-Side Bella on Braveology ("Braveology" being the nickname of our station's formatting).

MLekathLEEN · March 2011

Zip- The beanie babies reference makes me smile

Mine is what my dad used to call me (M-L-E) because it sounds like my name (Emily) and kathleen is my middle.

Oh my gosh! Really? I graduated in 2002 and again in 2004, so I was long gone before you got there! What is your degree in?

kayely88 · March 2011

My username is pretty boring.

kayely88 is the first three letters of my first name, the first three letters of my middle name and 88 is my birth year.

[Deleted User] · March 2011

I like this thread, it's fun to see where all our screen names came from!

PaigeMcC · March 2011

Mine means I laugh in the face of internet safety!

ahahahahahaha!!

NurseyK · March 2011

Take a wild guess!

Hint: I give out dilaudid like it's candy.

ravenray · March 2011

It's my horse's name plus the nickname my brothers have for me.

Elle1036 · March 2011

My initials are M.L. I always used to use the alias EmmElle for anything I did online, but a few years ago I shortened it. I like Elle by itself better.

The 1036 has no real meaning. I used the series of numbers for some unknown reason in my first AIM screen name and it stuck.

AbigailMS · March 2011

Mine's self explanatory. It's my name, when my parents named me Abigail they wanted me to be called that. When I got in school the teachers shortened it to Abby, Abbey, Abi, Abbie, Abbee, you name it. My parents HATED it. At first I liked it because I felt like I got this cool new name every first day of school, but now I hate it too. So now I put Abigail on everything.

BTW nobody name your kid abby. It rhymes with EVERYTHING! Crabby Abby, Gabby Abby, Flabby Abby, Abby Dabby Doo, etc.

[Deleted User] · March 2011

Allusive was the SAT word of the day in H.S. when I created my first AIM account. I decided 007 (as in Bond, James Bond) was a pretty "hard to catch" guy...so Allusive007 was born. (although later I realized I had spelled it wrong and it should have been elusive .) Guess it stuck anyway.

Good song, and my work schedule.
