Just because.. I'll go first. My ID (Obviously) is Tsslilsis. I sign my posts Ketlin, but my *real* name is Katherine. Ketlin is Bosnian for Katherine and I like the way it sounds a billion percent better. I think it is awesome and I've never heard anyone with the name Ketlin and I'd love to have my name legally changed to it.  I was named after my grandmas Kate (Her name is Katherine but it was Kate for short) and Catherine. I once counted and new 6 people with the name Katherien so I think it is too common. Ha.  -~Ketlin |

Bubonicapple was borne of an uncomfortable experience at a convention - this guy kept dogging at me, asking for my phone number/e-mail/lock of hair so I invented an e-mail on the spot to pry him away. My tag at the time was Wolfy Gunsmoke (oh god, was I ever that young), and I glanced nervously around and blurted out what immediately sprang to mind: BUBONICAPPLE AT...UH, HOTMAIL DOT COM. And he was sated and left.
Surprise twist ending, I loved the sound of bubonicapple so much I adopted it. So he found me anyway. Sob.
My real name is Samantha, but everyone has called me Jho (pronounced 'Jo') since I was a wee chiddler. I'm not really sure where it came from anymore, but it stuck. Also Samantha isn't one in a million so like Ketlin, I prefer Jho anyway~

Well, my sign in name is Jaycee, but my real name is Jennifer. Most people just call me Jen because Jennifer is just to long a name to just spit out. My middle name is Christine. My dad wanted to have nicknames to call us kids, and wanted to call me J.C. for short. My mom threw a fit, and would have nothing to do with that. I, however, kindof like the name. It is more unique than "Jennifer", which I really never liked for myself. So I call myself "Jaycee" on these sites, as a way to honor my dads wishes. I think he likes the idea that I use it. Or, maybe it is because 30 years later, he actually won the argument with my mom! |

well mine comes together this way: buzzone is my hubby's last name ( ok boyfriend but we have been together so long i hate saying boyfriend) I do the same thing, lol. I've been with my man for almost five years, while maybe not really long, it's long enough, and I could technically say fiance, since we are engaged, but then come the inevitable, "So when's the big day?" and then the confused looks when I explain that there isn't one, lol. So anyway, My ID is moddedmama, pretty simple, I'm a mama, first and foremost in my life, to my children, and my furbabies. The modded part, is simply descriptive, back when I had more piercings, though I still have a few and tattoos as well. My real name is Erica. No story or anything, just Erica. |

My sign on name is Giuliana (i use it because Im the admin and I thought it would be easiest if my username and real name were the same) My father is from Turino, Italy. My name is Italian. It is pronounced jewel-yanna. But I go by Giuli (pronounced julie). I used to hate my name because it was "weird" I wanted to be named katie (  ) but now that Im an adult I kind of like my weird name. People call me Giuli, G, Jewels, or Gwee-lee (an inside joke because many people see "Giuli" and dont know how to pronouce it====understandably). |

Tako is Japanese for octopus, and ever since I was reeeeally little I've kind of had an obcession with octopi. One of my great aunts made me this really cute yarn octopus room decoration when I was a baby and I think it just went down hill from there, lol I actually respect them so much as an awesomely intelligent animal that I named my art, craft, jewelry, and graphic design business after them. It's called TakoInk  My real name is Jessica...talk about a common name. It's common enough that I actually took to spelling it "Jessika" so that I didn't have to wait for my homeroom teacher and all the students passing back papers to figure out and match up the last names of 6 different Jessicas in the same class so that I'd actually get my own papers back, I was immediately just the Jessica with a k. I've stuck to spelling it that way since then, because I like it, and it also looks nice with my boyfriend/fiance's last name, Burke, lol. |

My boyfriend of 8 years' best friend's son calls my fuzzies wiener cats.... so there you go.
My REAL name is MonChere.... no, I am not french. I'm named after a Stevie Wonder song in 1974, Ma Cherie Amour, later re named to My Cherie Amour.
My mom was german and didnt know that Mon is masculine for "my" and Chere is feminine for "Dear." So it SHOULD be Ma Chere or Mon Cher. Oh well it's a name!
Sherry is what everyone calls me. My father, Gerald, AKA Jerry HATED my name, so he said Chere sounds like Sherry but "sherry" is spelled easy like JERRY. So Sherry is me too.
Yeah... there's WAY more to that story but that's the easy way to tell it.

KUUIPO is the Hawaiian meaning for sweetheart, and i always loved it because my parents got married in Kuaii. every piece of jewelery my mom had from the islands had the word Kuuipo on it. and they were all from my dad, so i knew that she would always be his hawaiian sweetheart, they're separated now and i dont want the past to fade, so i keep it with me. also, 61606 is the month day and year my boyfriend and i started dating. my real name is Gina Lynn. |

pear2apple? Well Apple my first fuzz was a fatty pear-shaped ferret back in February! There was a running joke with my friends we should have called him Pear! Of course, now he is trim and healthy like an Apple, so it all works out!
My full name is Christina Ann, my Mom loved the name Christina but as a kid I prefered Chris because it sounded less formal and I was more of a partial tomboy, loving to play outside, get dirty, and more boys as friends. But now I enjoy both names, and I also go by Tina and Chrissy to a select few.
