Usernames and how we choose one. Whilst some are very obvious - some are unusual   PINK is my favourite colour and STORM is my beloved dog                                                                                                                                                                                 

Mine got chosen for me!  Apparently I mother everyone and (in BJ's words) can be a little bit bossy sometimes!
                                                                                                                                                                             

I like your style, bossy is good! x                                                                                                                                                                             

Was sat at my computer one day tryingto register for my first ever forum membership, and as you do I looked out of the window for inspiration, the first thing that caught my eye was the wheelbarrow so that was it.                                                                                                                                                                              

erm... mine was also chosen for me
                                                                                                                                                                             

It should be Mr P. lol                                                                                                                                                                             

Id wouldnt have used that method wheelbarrow, the first think i saw when i looked out this morning was dog poo                                                                                                                                                                              

Good thread Pinkstorm . This is the first site I have every been on so wasn't sure about the user name at all and was conscious of not sounding like a 'lady of the night' or something really dodgy .  So in the end up the bike I rode at the time of joining was a Sreetbob hence the BOB and my name is Katie, often shortened to KAT
BOBKAT                                                                                                                                                                             

Hiya Hunni, i wasnt too sure whether it would raise any interest, but there are some unusual names, im waiting to hear rags and brat  xx                                                                                                                                                                             

 There is a few user names Im curious to find out how they came about x

I chose the Username Inspector Lestrade because i am a big Sherlock Holmes fan.                                                                                                                                                                             

we've had this thread before, if you can find it,you may find somemore name explanations!!!                                                                                                                                                                             

Didnt realise littlechick, ive not been on here as long as some of you, never really been through them all xx                                                                                                                                                                             

I know Pink, I had a quick gander,but I can't be bothered to search through.  I'm vertically challenged,hence my name                                                                                                                                                                             

    It can take a long time to find if there's already been a posting of the same topic, it took me ages to find, and some folk have never been on the net before so probably don't realise that some topics are repeated.   Update on my previous reply: I changed my member name to my given name Sandi, cos folk keep calling me Kwak, when they meet me, and it's not my name.   Here's the link to another one   http://www.bikermatch.co.uk/sites/bm/forum/posts.asp?to...ic_id=6025                                                                                                                                                                             

Thankyou Sandi x

Had my nickname for 39 years now, my real name is only used at home and work, it was the specs I wore at the time if there is anyone old enough out there to remember.                                                                                                                                                                              

Hate to admit it, but I remember him harry!!!!!!   My name came from a phone I'd just bought, no prizes for guessing which one , if only I had a bit more imagination!!!!!   Oh but I've more imagination than that guy called Matt                                                                                                                                                                              

Couldn't think of owt original so I just put a bit of SUZuki, a bit of YAMaha, and the last bit of KawasaKI together. Which turned out as SUZYAMKI.  So my name isn't Suzy anything, its Cathy !!!
