Nice topic...:)

I got my username from the At Home In Mitford series, where H Tide was the name of a company (which is Edith backwards). I liked it so much it become my username.

I named my username after the word "Aftershock" and I just added the "er" and the end. \:D/

It's my bester's nickname for me and it was my nick on the ToO chat. But I changed back to Kaida on the chat. I might switch again to Pretzel since that's what people still call me on there.

My original name was TigerintheShadows, but then The Hunger Games came out and a ton of people (Musical Shutterbug, Marvin D., and others) changed their user names to reflect that. I despise THG and thought it was time for a change, and therefore I requested my name to be changed to one of my favorite characters--Harry Potter's very own Ginny Weasley.

I was (and still am) a member of a fanfiction community and that was my user name because I thought it sounded cool. I like tigers and shadows are intimidating. \:D/

A friend of mine's email is JesusPrincess and some numbers, and I saw it and thought it was pretty cool, so when I needed a non-personal username for this site, (I usually use my first and middle name and my birth year) I decided to be Jesus' Princess. I've thought about changing it, but I've never come up with anything else :)

My first name is Samantha, and my age is 14. So I just combined them to form this name. I've thought about changing it, but

A. I'm an admin. I shouldn't change my name for kicks. It would end up very confusing. And that would be irresponsible.

B. My name has strangely found somewhat of a reputation, apparently. :P

So, yeah. I'll stick with this for now. :yes:

The Iron Crusader admin team did this thing where they randomly changed everyone's username when they logged in.

I had been I_<3_Kaka, because the silly system wouldn't accept the name I wanted, possibly thinking it was a bad word, though there was no reason to. :- Anyway. I was dubbed Termite, and I liked it well enough that I requested it be left. \:D/

TKD suggested it when I was trying to think of a username. I like to pick a username that I'm going to keep for a long time, if not forever. I liked her suggestion, since "Sunny" (/"Sonny") is a common nickname anyway. After having it for a while, I have more reasons why I like the username, so now I just use it as my username in general when joining other sites. ^.^

For some reason, this made me smile...possibly because I remember having awesome discussions on why you didn't like the series :p

Really? ;)

Well, on my first account, I was Brad Dillard. Simply because I was going through a phase where I liked the character a lot. Anyway, I never was notified that the account was activated and so I reregistered a couple years later. I ended up chosing Regis Blackbeard because I thought it was a cool mix of the 2 names. I don't exactly remember how I got hung up on using Bren but it's a shortened form of Brendon and my nickname as a kid was Bren Bren so it stuck.

I miss ID4J. :(
