Your Screen Name (Page 4)

Q: What is a Writebrained?

A: Someone who likes to write and someone who is right-brained (creative and a little disorganized).

My name is Bob and I'm an airline Captain. The flight attendents like to call me captain Bob.

I'm NUTS
and I am a DAD......

CRAZYPOP.....simple really.

Hi, Bob.

Steve

Stake is my call-sign from my Marine Corps flying days.  Good times...

My name is Jen and my last name starts with a G. Pretty simple really.

I've been on the internet since 1993, so I've had no problem getting various [email protected] email address, so jeng it is.

Jen

I was looking for a new online name to use at another site. I don't recall the exact train of searches but I was looking up fictional or fantastic names (related to fantasy) on google and dictionary.com and following up interesting leads, some leading to others. Micawber is a character created by Charles Dickens and, because of that character's outlook, it can also be used to refer to "an eternal optimist". I liked the connotation and it certainly applies to my tri training. I haven't read the book yet but I gather he was also a bit of a "colorful" character.

I'm blonde, extroverted, fun, a super hero and therefore Bubbles seemed like the perfect name/avatar.  (No the name has nothing to do with a stage name or big breasts - I go by Xena for my stage name..lol) 

I like monkeys

Lots of back hair and an unhealthy interest in Star Wars. I have been using this name since I started BBSing in the late 80's so it made sense to keep it when I first went online in 92 - can't believe it has been so long my how things have changed - no Gopher client, no custom TCP/IP stack, no archie, no veronica I wonder how many people even know what Gopher space is anymore. As you can tell a geek what better name.

well my name is paul neal, all my friends have called me nealy since well forever, and im from the uk, pretty boring really

Couldn't think of anything at the moment of registering, and I have to say taht my bike is something that I just love. It is a thing of beauty. Yeah, yeah, yeah... I hear all that from my fiance, too. It is amazing how men can sensualize an inanimate mechanical object.

blah.

You guys are way more original than me.

Good Racing!

I've thought about starting to go by my middle name and I figured the best way to test it out was by using it as a screen name. My mom always called me Kanoe. It means beautiful and heavenly mist. My dad was in the Coast Guard and stationed in Hawaii when I was born.

Here's everybody with cutesy little names and you have to make a name that makes us all look intelectually inferior. If you synthesized a superconducting material, well then, you probably are. Wow. Good job... The only things I make are, well, crappy forum posts.

Anyway, I live in Mi, right over form SOuth Bend. I work in SB, and spend most my time there! My original intent was to tell you I was in your area, not break your balls. I am in engineering, so I find that stuff interesting.

I'll bet there are more than you think!

My daughter wrote an essay on this subject.  She titled it, "Note the Silent "E"."  The gist of it is to wonder and be amazed at how many people aren't familiar with how silent E's work in her name.

As an infant I used to call her "Line o' Mine."  I'm not allowed to call her that anymore.

As for my name, it was a D&D character's name I had back in the 70's and a nickname on "Twinkle", a pre-IIRC we had in the UMass/Five College network in the mid-eighties.  I just wanted to mention this because I check Wookie's geek credentials and raise him one.  :-)

I also go by Dally.  What I don't do is use my full name anymore, because now I have chlldren, a business, and at least one bizarre rabid stalker who scared the hell out of me on usenet.  I vastly regret using my real name on usenet in the early 90's.  Who knew about google?

i wont lie: my sn rules.

a) my last name is TURQUETTE.
b) in a math class many years ago our teacher was explaining subtraction and put 6 guys and 5 girls at the front and "subtracted" from that. i was left. when the teacher asked what was left instead of yelling "1" a classmate screamed "a big turkey!". turQy stuck ever since.
c) it constantly is mistaked for turGy and thats just ridonkulus.

Got mine form college. hoff1732 was the beginning of my e-mail address they assigned me. Pretty boring.

Gee, can anyone figure mine out?
