I was drinking jasmine tea on a rainy summer night when I came across Arthritis Insight, and that is how I chose mine. my daughters name is Kelsay and well obviosly..im her mommy

 well my middle name is Mona and actually hubby teases me about "moaning" in my sleep. So thats where moana came from I live in Ninilchik

pin cushion

Was going to have mona "for Mona Lisa" but had that joke all my life

 

Lisa

My name is Linda, C is for Cheryl, my middle name and N is for my maiden name.  My married name starts with H, but I didn't want to be Linnch.  Just has a bad vibeI was thinking about RA and how good I felt before I had it, so I came up with my feelings now and my feelings then.  Hence, now & then.   Way back in the late 1970's when CB radios were popular, my "handle" was Hillbilly Honey, because of my West Virginia mountaineer roots, and Hillhoney is a shortened version of that.I used my first name, lol.

My family has called me NINI since I was little. And still do. My granddaughters have always called me "Nini" instead of Grandma. I have nieces and nephews who also call me "Aunt Nini". In fact, one of my nephews is a college professor, who heads the English department at his school and he still calls me "auntie Nini"

A funny little side note: One of my oldest friends has always called me "Lulu". Another of our friends put the 2 nicknames together and started calling me "Luni" (like loony-tunes). Yes, I have some weird friends

By the way, as some of you already know, my real name is Linda.

 

 


"Watching Wolf" is my "naming name" given to me by my maternal great-grandmother.
watchingwolf39366.4717592593I pikced "Gimpy" to claim the word, the same way homosexuals claimed "Gay" and "Queer"----Gimp Pride! (I was linping a lot at the time)--- and -a-Gogo because I'm an urban hipster. Although lately I've been presenting more like a hippie so maybe my name should have been GimpShine or something. If I was a gay man I could have been GimpWrist, haha!

 

 LOL Gimpy I've always wondered how you came up with your name. This is fun

My real name, I don't use as it wasn't suppose to be my name but my Mother was pushed to give me a name as they didn't think I was going to live after I was born. Plus everytime mom would be upset with me, she would call me by my real name.

My friends call be Becky.

littlemermaid....i love Ariel and plus im a redhead soooo yea :)

My dog's name is Jesse and 88 was an easy number for my foggy brain to remember. 

Good thread!

 

My husband is an electrician and I am a redhead so Sparky has always been my nickname

Oh.. and I used to be 41 LOL!!!

Sparky4139366.5724305556Couldn't think of anything better.   First name Lindy, last name starts with a B, thus LinB, not very creative but easy for this old RA fog of a brain to remember. 

Mine is from that Bob Seger song called Jodi girl and of course Jodi is my first name!  Plus my husband has called me Married Girl since we wed 16 years ago. Why? Because I was almost 28 and so ready to settle down and be married!

Mine is after my children at home.  Shyanne and Kyle and I am the mom.Robin~ I thought you were a "shy Kentucky mom"

It's supposed to be seperated out as Arris Colwell.

I thought the same thing Link

I use to be Jooniper, then after forgetting my password on here, I re-registered as Joonie as that is what everyone called me on the board.

Jooniper was a cross between the movie "Benny & Joon" and my daughter favorite cartoon at the time "Juniper Lee".

My dog's name

Linda from NJ

DX 3/2007

remicade MXT levoxyl folic acid tramadol vicodin zonegran

 

 

My name is actually Cindy but it was taken already. My grandma's name was DeeDee so I put CinDee and lo and behold no one had used that name, so there you go. lol

 

OMG this was fun...mine is nothing special.  My nickname has AWAYS been Shelly, and I am 41 right now. 

Real name is Michelle...but my friends and family...people that know me very well...call me Shelly or Shell(except hubby). 

Some of you are very creative.

When I came across this site I was researching RA and my name is Jay. I know not very creative but I see no reason to change it now.

 

Yep, some were very creative, but I know mine was not either...not my strong suite either Jay!  Hi Hammerstein was my son's first hamster's name they had given her and the 1200 is the month and year that they got her. hm..i dont know how I came up with mine!! 

That would work too

Shy KY mom. 

When I was young and knew everything there was to know, I was quite the binge drinker and it sometimes put me in some awkward situations.

Now that I'm older and have stopped drinking, I have plenty of time to reflect and "think" about all the stupid things I used to do whilst I was drinking.

Thus;   Bingethinker

I live in Wellsville and my name is kathy

 

 

well my name is julie, julez is a nickname so its easy to remember. I needed a number to go along with it (when i first started using that screenname, many years ago) and 711 was easy to remember... it was a convenience store... wow that's really sad that i picked that number for that reason now that i think about it.

Mine isn't creative at all either. My name is Kathy, short for Kathleen, and my home address is 9310, even though I don't live there now.

 

Hi , I started with 'Hurts', because I was in so much pain in Februrary when I first began posting. That finally ended, so I tried Sarah (my first name, but I never use it!), something happened and I had to totally re register, so I thought what the heck, my name is Lynda M so go for it! It feels right to me. Nice idea for the post Joonie.

Lynda

My screen name is pretty much exactly what it says!!! lol!!!

This is a good thread!!

i am suzanne's oldest daughter...... so i used suzannedaughter [QUOTE=angytvjunkie4]

Hey everyone!!!

This is a good thread!!

[/QUOTE]

LOL - I just looked closely at your screen name... I always thought it said "angry TV junkie"... I always wondered what you were "angry" about!!!

That cracks me up!!!

Hugs

 

Yep, Jaz I always thought it was Angry too.  Gosh...I guess now I have to tell the docs I can't read. 

Add me to the list of those who can't read.  I always thought it said that too

I kept trying to figure out what she was so angry about

Phats

Don't feel bad - everytime I see Littlemermaid's name I read it:

 LITTER MAID!

 

Sorry, LOL!
