AB usernames

[zgma]

Anyone have an interesting explanation for your username? I don't know if it's against site etiquette to ask, but I am curious.

[Philtaz]

Combination of my first name(Philip) and the name of my mad Springer Spaniel!

[Philtaz]

So what's the story behind zgma?

[FP]

Well, its a 'fake' name and I am a Radiohead fan.

[Oneeyedvic]

Because ther is only one i in Vic

[garlico]

Carlito's way was once a favourite film of mine and my mates and one day I stank of garlic and my mate said "hey, garlico man" instead of "hey, carlito man" as it says in the film. It just stuck, a bit like the dancefloor at maximes

[garlico]

I wouldn't say it was that interesting though!!

[zgma]

Well, I like the way zgma sounds better than the actual explanation for it. It is that my son's initials are Z.G., hence I am Z.G.'s mama.

[GeordieSteve]

I'm a Geordie... my name is Steve

[handicap-1]

Just because my golf handicap is -1

[Greedyfly]

Because I am

[Lindy Loo]

Love the way these nicknames have come about! They're all very inventive. Mine is one of the nicknames my dad used for me many moons ago, (my name is Linda). Also got called 'gingernut', copper kn*b and of course carrots. Yeah I'm a redhead!!

[IndieSinger]

Thanks for that, Copper Knob.

I am called IndieSinger because I am an R'n'B violin player.

[bernardo]

The explanation for my username is not at all interesting, except to say that bernardo is not my real name.

btw, Indie, what is "R'n'B"?

[FP]

GAB Indie - your usual humour, I see!

[zgma]

That's funny, Indie, I could have sworn that you were a jazz washboard player.

[NoGood Boyo]

A character in Under Milk Wood, by Dylan Thomas.

[Hgrove]

It's the abbreviated form of an address (not mine).

[Bohne]

Bohne rhymes with my real name (in German) and is also my nickname on a German Question site. So I decided to keep it, when I discovered AB recently.

[natalie_1982]

My name's Natalie and I weight in at 1982 stone.

[secretsquiz]

well, my preferrred username would be secretsquirrel, but AB wouldn't allow me that many letters. as for secretsquirrel - i was once asked in a job interview 'what animal would you like to be re-incarnated as?' and i chose a squirrel because 'it seems like a fun life, running around in parks and climbing trees'. dunno where the secret part came from, but it adds a bit of mystery! ooooh!
