What's in a name...

Blueberry

Hi, I'm curious about some of the usernames on here. Does anyone want to share why they chose their usernames? Mine was pretty simple - I was thinking 'I can't use my name, so what do I like?' and the answer was 'frozen blueberries' Slight smile

Parents

  • I realised something - all of our usernames fit in to categories:

    Food/flowers - you Blueberry and Tulip52

    Animals/Pets or linked to Pets - Me LongFerret, Herge (sorry I'm missing the accent on the e), battybats

    Real names or nicknames - Goosey, Roy, Desmond, Billy87, Debbie, HMO25, Caelus, Martin, Dawn, Sam, Robert124, EuanF, Mark, Joe, Sarah, Cororon, and Allyboo

    Descriptors of likes or personalities - Sparkly, Zengarden

    Clever Autism-linked words - Autonomistic, Ausomely autistic

    *REVISED*:

    Household items (but not literally!) - Pegg

    Cryptic/Hard to fathom - Senor takaGOD

    Towns or cities linked - Taltunes

    Escapes and/or Hobbies - Taltunes, Fantasy

    Famous people linked - Taltunes, Sloan

    Metaphysical/Philosophical - Deepthought, Zengarden

    References to computing/Life Experience - out_of_step, Deleted user

    Other (for even more complex names) - No usernames as yet

    **************************************************************

    Good aren't they.  What other categories am I missing.....? Let me know...if I see anyone else I'll add them in...heehee

    Update: Okay so I have an important friend to add, however they are complex & in three different categories. Here goes...don't forget to let me know about any more folks who need to go in the list...

    Is Taltunes a city? I had to look it up (my obsessive need to understand stuff...) but Google was very unhelpful

    Hi Blueberry, as Taltunes explained in the other thread, their name incorporates Tunstall, and other topics close to their heart Slight smile

    Ah, sorry, must have missed the other thread
