A lot of us have user names here that are significant to ourselves. I like to analyze them, and more times than not the name can be deciphered more than one way.

Can you explain why your username is what it is?

-------

OP goes first.

I started to use this site before I knew windows very well, and I guess also in those days the cookies lasted shorter in a user's computer.

And I hate to type repetitive stuff. At the time I did not know how to use autocomplete, and also did not know how the computer "remembers" information and passwords.

So I chose WUX, which is short, to the point, means nothing, so it confuses my enemies right off the bat, because they try to find meaning where there is none.

I also liked it because on another site pics were not shown on forum entry listings, and on posts in threads, so I wanted something that was easy to spot even when one glanced over a page of posts quickly.

W, U and X are sort of attention-grabbing letters. The othe... Hey! Letters used in a user's moniker eventually assume their owner's personality, sooner or later!

What an incredible sociological insight.

Pray tell us what your moniker means to you and why you chose it for yourself.

Stupid
Old
Ugly
Fat
Incontinent, and given to
Exaggeration

I made it up because I was not going to put
a picture up, and I thought it would be
a great screen for the..non-intrepid :-)
If they asked.
No one did for over a year and a half hahaha

Oh, and I had to add the 'here' to it because
some FREAK already had that name.

I thought Soufie was a beautiful name. I was going to name my first born daughter Soufie. I guess I'll have to come up with something else. :P

Shannon's my name, Marie was SUPPOSED to be my middle name, but was changed at the last minute, and 21 is the day on which I was born. Pretty boring. laugh

I'm not responsible for my name. I didn't even originally sign up for this site - my buddy's wife signed me up. She came up with the name.

Roaming Orator: Roaming, because it seems like I've been everywhere and Orator, because I have a story about all those places.

I made the Nickname cheer_up cause i want more people to cheer up in life ,cause i know life can give a lot of us hard times and troubles with health or whatever and i thought if i put the cheer up nickname maybe just even if 1 person saw the Nickname and maybe they would cheer up a bit would be great:)also i love to chat to people live and help them cheer up too and sometimes i like to say cheers so that is what my Nickname is about :) have a great day cheers :):thumbsup: :banana: waving
