If you could change your user name...

[Ocean Lover]

If you could change your user name, what would you change it to?

I have 3 screen names on aol. I don't use them all but it's nice to have the option. I don't think an alias would work for me on this board. Y'all would know it was me I'm sure. I'd goof up and forget I was supposed to be a totally new person. Anyway, maybe I'd choose Sowal Lover instead..it would be more fitting.

[Kimmifunn]

Wild horses couldn't make me change my name!

[Teresa]

I think I would like to be Mary Tootsie (part real name/part nickname)... I like knowing people by a real name on the board whenever possible (or close to it).

Somehow I knew you would say that!

Hi Mary Tootsie. You know, I've never really liked my name so when I get a chance to go by something else..it's a good thing.

[Rita]

When I started on this board, I posted my full name, not really knowing that it would be showing up with my posts - Kurt was kind enough to remove my last name for me.

But it is boring to have my user name as my name when others have fun beach names or "vegetable" names like peapod.

Gee should I be broccoli stalk or something more like Kimmi suggested > Margarita?

Or Sea Dunes? or Gulf Winds? Oh my, oh dear, Rita isn't sounding too bad now!

I know its funn to go by some new funn name. But, when I meet someone from the board for the first time, it is difficult (for me) to connect that person with their real name because I only know them by Sea Monster or Carpet Bagger or Fish Monger, or whatever... but now I am learning some of your real names via PM, etc., and can finally start to feel like I know them better cause I know their names.

just me.

<<<<<<---------- i love my screen name, i use it on all boards i'm on. i could change it to my real name, but then i'd need to sign everything with steve instead of jr, which is quicker.

And I have alway's had my real name as my name from the beginning. I never thought of having a funn name, I guess because it was the first and only message board I had participated in and probably the last, since this one is so FUNN!!!!

yes, and I thought you were Kathy Dwells for the longest! I know you are Kathy and I like it. And i know you are also Darlene, not your nickname, but your middle name. LOVE IT.

When did you become Tree hole Toots??

Like Tootsie, I thought your name was Kathy Dwells for the longest time. Even after you said your name was Kathy D. Wells, I still thought of you as Kathy Dwells in Seagrove.

[Mermaid]

I like my Mermaid, so I would never change it. I do have one other screen name and that's on a travel forum that I use whenever we go to France or Italy (that's pretty well the only focus of www.slowtrav.com). That name is caramello. The "official" line is that it's one of my favorite English candy bars, but the "real" line is that before I snagged Merman, there was a delicious Venezuelan hottie who dated me, and his pet name for me was--you guessed it!--caramello. Spanish for sweet little thing.

Oh girl...You better be careful...We don't want Merman reading that!

You love the dudes from the other side of the pond...don't you?

I think I dated every continent except Africa!

Classic! I love it!

[Miss Kitty]

Did you work at the UN????

[kurt]

I think I dated every continent except Africa!

What's wrong with Africa?

[Mermaid]

What's wrong with Africa?

Nothing wrong with Africa except that I ran out of time. Merman got me first. Had he not found me, I'm sure I would eventually dated my last unchartered continent! There are interesting, intelligent, handsome men to be found in all corners of the earth. I think I met several in my heyday. :oops: (Howz that for a Valentine's Day lead-in?)

I've done Switzerland and Australia... Maybe he was from Sweden...

[Jdarg]

Should we start a new thread? This could be funn!

[CastlesOfSand]

This is starting to sound like a tangent!!!

[Mermaid]

This is starting to sound like a tangent!!!

Waaaaaaaaaaaaal, tomorrow IS Valentine's Day! Someone--whoever gets up first, I guess--could start a Wild Romance Thread and we could all share stories! The only trouble would be keeping it G-rated for at least 24 hours...

I'm worried that all those stories happened so long ago, I may not remember them to tell them!!


Oh wait. Just remembered some of them.

Tell me about it. My stories are over 20 years old so I may forget a lot of the details. Does that mean that since this is the internet and we're "anonymous" that maybe I can do a little bit of creative writing??? Hey! I can write my own Harlequin Romance tomorrow!

I want a new name too! Like you, I didn't think about it because this was the first message board I had participated in and didn't realize how much I would use it.

SJ - your nickname "biscuit" is shown under your username so that is covered, but... poodles???

[Jdarg]

I like "sj1". Kinda like Air Force One.

[dbuck]

I like your name, it is catchy and easy to remember.

[imasunbum]

Thank you dbuck. I just don't think it fits me. I love the sun, but it doesn't like me. I have really fair skin. But you're right - it is easy to remember.

Hmmmm.... How about SeaOtter or GulfOtter? Or WorksforwhiteyOtter

That one.

[Miss Kitty]

UsedtobewhiteyOtter?

[whiteyfunn]

Well, I have changed my name since a certain Miss Kitty made me. I did love Wlaner. The bad thing is I get a new nickname every week from the other funns so I get confused. I could've been Laneyfunn though...but that sounds too sweet and frilly. Whiteyfunn fits me much better.
