Back in the day, hanging out at gas stations on I-65.

 

[Redcraze1956]

Redcraze was my favourite racehorse when I was a kid. His greatest year was 1956 when he won many races. His greatest effort was coming second in the Melbourne Cup (2 miles) carrying 10 stone 3. The winner was Evening Peal (a very good mare) carrying 8 stone. Redcraze came from last and was beaten by half a neck.

@Treeview

Two meanings

Organized structure…. 1,2,3…a,b,c

Easy way to keep track of discord

Maybe easier to understand…the view up and out from the tree. Then, from the top. Looking out Whatta view

 

[Bigboobbabe]

I think mine is self explanatory.

Your name and my name clearly indicate we are not a good match.

 

[summer_reine]

Summer because it's the season in which I feel the most alive. Reine has multiple meanings. The name comes from an influential singer in my teens. It means queen in French, a language I learned in school but can now only irritate native speakers in my attempts at communication. And of course it means rain. Warm summer rain is what I enjoy and aspire to be. I could dive deeper but that's the jist. Yes, I may have over thought it a bit

 

[MissMaidenMinx]

I first came up with it for somewhere else. At the time I had very recently seen Iron Maiden and Minxy was my exes pet name for me. Wherever I was trying to sign up for already had a Maiden Minx, so I threw Miss on the beginning. Now I feel like the Miss is misleading but eh.

 

[Cogan]

Mine is taken from a Clint Eastwood character he played in the movie "Coogans Bluff". It was the first movie with Clint Eastwood I saw and I loved it!
Unfortunately I miss spelled the name and didn't see it until it was too late. It bothered me in the beginning and it wasn't possible to change. But now I have no problem with it being not what I wanted.

Wow everyone! This thread is turning out to be awesome! Some extremely fascinating reasons for usernames! Some silly, some serious! I love it!

 

[Henry_Hoover_Bags]

I'm a bagged hoover

 

[forgotmyantidepressants]

My libido crashed through the cellar floor when I went on mine.

Me too.

Cock Sucking HUsBand - sort of sums me up.

 

[Neanderthal247]

Easy, it’s my name.

 

[Neanderthal247]

My particular reason is simple, I am not up with the times of today. I don't understand the mindset sometimes, it's Alien to me. I have had dreams that felt like it was from a past life in History, almost like visions from my ancestors and I felt I belonged there in that time.

I'm a big Doctor Who fan... at the time when I made my original account it was just sally_sparrow. She was a popular character from the episode "Blink" in season three of the DW reboot. I had/have a crush on her, and I think her name is fun to say.

Literally one of my favorite episodes. Honestly all the angels episodes are pretty good. And of course the library… Hey who turned out the lights?

 

[cactusjack0584]

I am loving this thread so far. I do find it fascinating how people chose their username. Some have been funny, others a bit touching, and all of them interesting in their own way.

Thanks so much everyone who’s posted so far!

I know my memory will go one day and I have signed up to lots of sites so that I will never forget who I am

 

[barefootgirl69]

I hate feet prisons. I hate feet chokers.
I love the feel and freedom of being barefoot. "Barefoot girl" has been my name for much longer than I've been on Lit, but Lit said I needed a number. I didn't want it to match anything I had elsewhere, so I added 69. It seemed fitting since I had just filed for divorce and I felt relationships ought to be give and take equally.

 

[TXRafe]

i think mine is fairly unexciting...TX is for Texas, Rafe is short for Rafael...people have often struggled with Rafe (like safe), but I only use Rafael in professional situations or out of convenience...Rafe, Rafael, Tex, Texas, Daddy (if you're feeling feisty) are all acceptable.

 

[TXRafe]

Why have people struggled with Rafe? There's Ralph (pronounce Rafe) Fiennes, Rafe Spall, and other well known people with that name.

they always either hear a P, or say Raf (like Raft)...but you tell them Rafael...

"OH! Like the ninja turtle!"...

lets not forget Dennis Miller in Bordello of Blood and Ben Affleck in Pearl Harbor...it is a rather unique name though...i have never met another Rafe.

Pearl Harbor is one of my favorite movies!

 

[shybutobscene]

I think mine is a bit explainable on its own but the back story is @shybutobscene was already “going to be used” by another in the future so I couldn’t go with that moniker. Granted I’d not met the person behind the name or knew when said name would be listed or used. But to be safe I went with the name I have now.

Had I known someone was going to try to steal it, I would have tried to secure it sooner
