Default How did you choose your user name?

Just wondered whether people wanted to share how their user names came about?
After all, there are some interesting ones!

I didn't actually choose my name; it did belong to my O/H, but I hijacked his usage so much, he had to choose another name!
Anyway, as someone has previously spotted, Brisca relates to British Stock Car Association - which was a hobby we had a few years back.
Good fun! Anyone ever been to watch Stock Car racing?

Rugbymatt...........no need for you to reply to this thread; we all know your name relates to your passion for the wonderful game of FOOTBALL!!!

I spent hours pondering over my username.........I wanted something that would maintain a degree of anonimity.

I thought the best thing was not to give any idea at all where we live. Everyone tells you to keep personal details secret on the internet. Buxom from Birmingham just didn't sound right anyway

OH was completing the details and asked me what we should be called and I could not think initially. Howerever, before he had typed much more I said the kids seem to think we are odd so what about The Oddities.

I like Pam Sarky´s name......by switching the P&S you can alternate between her real name and her personality. Great!

Now I wonder if that would work with some others???

We could have:

Puzzle Fop
Mugby Rat
Like Minks
Bitzy Moy
Chilver Sick
Jed Frames
Pig Beat
Ary Mann

There must be some good ones out there......
