Where did your screen name come from?????
The name change thread gave me this idea a few weeks back. We all have screen names and some of us just use our real names but may have used screen names in the past.
I thought it would be fun to have a place to explain why you picked the one(s) you did and if it is meaningful to you in someway. I'll go first.... I was SouthernBelle for many years because, well i am southern. I used this name for around 10 years on yahoo and in yahoo chat rooms. When i found the dash site, a few years ago, that name was already taken. I was at a loss. My dad always called me his princess so i just picked that and combined it with belle because most people called me belle anyway and still do. Ok....now your turn....

Back when I picked Apocalipstic I wanted something powerful, explosive, shocking and funny.
I was playing around with "the Apocalypse" and Apocalipstic jumped in my head and I totally cracked up.

ok, wheeeeee fun fun fun..ty
My wife and I owned a paint your own pottery studio. She loved to throw on her wheel and I loved to handbuild with clay. We came up with name of "claybabytwo" since it was two babes who loved to play in clay..so it stuck..recently I "changed" mine to just claybaby...since she is no longer here...it is just one babe playing in the clay...RIP Cathy!
Thanks for this thread, as I , too wonder what the significance is of people's screen names...Clay

I had a welch corgi mix years ago, she was like my daughter, went every where with me, from the shelter in Maui where I found her to Fresno where she passed at 15, and several states in between. Her name was Corkey, my best bud and my heart. It is my perpetual reminder of her and her spirit.

See?
These are already touching stories. Even if it is a just "fly by night" type of name, to me, it is still interesting. Afterall, these names are who we are when we first meet people on here. I just find it very informative and meaningful. Call me sappy lol. Thank you to all who share!!!!!!!

Not too long before I found the Dash site I was helping some friends fix up a house they had just purchased. It had a lot of woodwork that was painted over that they wanted stripped off. There was one door that was being very stubborn. I tried everything- a heat gun, chemicals, etc. The paint was just not coming off. I wailed away at it for hours and hours. My friends told me to stop or take a break. I refused, lol. They said you are such a bulldog and started calling me that. When I found the Dash site I thought bulldog sounded like a good butch screen name. So I chose that and have been BullDog ever since. I do think it suits me. I may be just a little stubborn.
.gif "Say What?") As to Bully, Hank and some others were the first to start calling me that on the Dash site. Quite a few people call me that, here online as well as in real life. My former roommates (butch femme couple) call me Bully and they haven't been on a bf site in years. Their whole family does as well and other people they have introduced me to.

Always wanted to be a bad girl in the Pink Ladies ;)
My all time favorite movie was Grease. My screen name comes from the scene in the diner where Rizzo throws a strawberry milkshake in Kinicky's face and says, "from me to you PinkieLee".
When I joined the dash site in 2002... it was the first name that popped into my head! |

It's goes a lil somethin' like this...
My Owner renamed me after I turned 26 to Snow, I was allowed at that time to use the Lady hence The Lady Snow. Snowy, Snowie One, Snowball, Snowflake,Snowypuffarooos are all names friends or chosen family have and do call me.. DJ refers to me as bestest FBG in the world.. Heh

What's in a Name?
For years on a different site I was called katrinka82 (katrinka was a nickname given to me by my grandfather so I was honoring him). I moved sites and wanted a fresh start (not that i am a bad girl or anything, just growing up a bit). I am a college professor to hence the Prof part and a good friend of mine was always calling me a hottie (i don't always see it but I am trying)...

Tapu, May I ask; are you from NZ?
Mine is self explanitory; I'm New Zealander and have a quirky personality - I'm not poor enough to be crazy and not wealthy enough to be eccentric, lol! The number 1 because one of the websites I'm on a numeral has to be used in the username.

Many years ago there floated around Usenet this "what is your porn name" meme, except they weren't called memes yet. The formula was your mother's maiden name + the street you grew up on. My mother's maiden name made me sound like an accountant rather than a porn star so I used my grandmother's instead. Hence I was Slater Bates. I started using that as a screen name for awhile and then shortened it.

My screen name when I first joined the dash site in 1999 (whatever the year the site opened? 1998?), was MTBNGirls (stands for mountain biking and girls), two things I like.
In 2005 I decided I wanted to change the name. I am not creative by any stretch of the imagination and all that kept coming to my mind was my friend calling me a dapper Butch. So, I decided to just go with that.

Julie? My Daddy! Actually Julie is the female version of one of my mom's uncles Julius - I was named after a man. LOL this obviously was not what you were asking... But it is my name and my screen name.
