Default Why the Login Name?

I've been wondering why people chose their Login names. My partner set
us up on this and Diddy is her nickname for obvious reasons.

Anyone
else wanna share?

Bundy (I can probably guess)
ABC Diamond
Dagboy

Anyone?

Paul

My dad called me Pollyanna when I was a kid, cos he said I was always
happy. The Bloke wanted a nickname for me, and used Polly, so I thought,
what better username! Had to change it to a single 'n' cos someone else
pinched the original name!

Mine's boring - it's my name!

Bridie is my christian name and surname
begins with J.

Would have used BJ but worried people might get the
wrong idea!

I could say it was after Al Bundy (as
Simone used to think). Or Ted Bundy.

But no, it's the rum. Of course

Yep mine too it's just my name
pronounced like Carla (parents must have thought it would be funny to
give me a name spelt wrong so I spend my life correcting people)

Reckon it's better to be named
after rum than a serial killer.
