I know this has been asked in other places, however this one is specifically for singles. How did you come up with your username?

I'll start, I came up with mine when I first got a computer and was looking to get online via AOL. I kept on trying names that didn't work at all. Something came to mind "blessed are those who are Humbleinspirit!" When I tried that name, it worked, and the rest is history!

Mutiny - my favorite MLS team (this was back in 1999 when I was living in Columbus, OH while going to grad school and needed to come up with a screenname and refused to do anything "Crew" related).

WX - weather - I was studying meteorology in grad school

Girl - I HOPE I don't have to explain that!

I got mine because my name is 'Paul' and my sisters nickname for me is 'Pauley'. The 464 is the month and year of my birth.

I think my username speaks for itself. If it doesn't swing, it's not worth listening to.

I've told many this before, but here it is again.

I belong to an alternate history site where I am generally the only girl. I had left the site and returned after one of the admin begged for me to return. Because I was still aggravated I wanted something that the boys would cringe over having to say whenever they talked to me. Hence, Tinkerbell.

I am a person with multiple interests, sports (especially baseball), photography and the arts, music, history (mainly Kansas history), so I wanted a name to reflect that. In the baseball world an utilityfielder is someone who can play several positions (interests). So my name reflects that.

Teaspoon is my nickname that only a few use and 61 is the year of my birth.

I came up with Teaspoon when I was being silly. My initials are TSP which is the cooking abrevation of teaspoon and since I like to cook . . . . . it just stuck.

Not cool . . . . but a little cute. . . . . . . . .nah just goofy!

These are very interesting!!

I picked mine because while I used to have one containing music people would ask if I sang or if I played an instrument. With "woodwind", it's pretty obvious which applies. 228 represents bday. I almost chose "clariboe" as my user name - a combination of clarinet and oboe.

Mine comes from my best friend - throughout my divorce she would always remind me that God would trade my ashes in for beauty. About 2 months ago I met someone and on one particular sunday during worship I realized how strongly I felt for this person and then we sang that song At the Foot of the Cross - (one of the lyrics is I'll trade these ashes in for beauty). A week ago, this person decided I wasn't the one - which is ok, if he is God will get ahold of him :)

I'm horrible at picking names. I have no creativity whatsoever. Normally, The first name I chose was gurlyclimber, then decided against it as I don't think I've earned the name yet. The next name was Mountainhiker, then I realized I only hike in the mountains a few weeks in a year when we actually go to the mountains. So, I didn't fit the name either. Now, prairiehiker is more like me as I live in endless prairie where you can hike a few hundred miles and still feel like you haven't left, lol.

I've probably mentioned this before, but here I go again.... RC are my initials (Ray Charles... I do sing, but I don't play the piano and I'm fairly pale). U-dawg is short for Underdog, someone who is not expected to amount to much. Over the years, I've shown that, if I set my mind to do something, I am extremely tenacious and can accomplish a lot! And, while I was active duty, I was initially a mediocre soldier. But, after being deployed and having a month to sort things out, I did a total 180 in my attitude and leadership. Within a month, I was studying for my E5 (Sergeant) board, and passed. Questions?

RC
