    It might be funny to know how you came up with your username? How long have you used it?

    Myself came up with Jevoro since its an mix of my firstname and lastname but I haven't had it very long. I have been using different ones since I never really came up with any that i really liked. Until now that is :D

    I suck at coming up with names; I'm probably the least creative person you know. So I use my name. :D

    My parents felt they should create a family legacy so gave me the same name as my father and I have been using it ever since. Of course, I never liked being called Junior so my son has a different name. So much for family legacy.

    Well I usually combine my name with one of my hobbies. In this case it's about firearms...namely my 50cal rifle or 50 BMG (Browning Machine Gun round).

    Oyobiia = Name of my site.

    If not I use, Nibbles or Bamboo or Ryan

    Most of those are taken. So now I just use Oyobiia.

    I first made my username about 4 years ago. If you must know, it kind of came from this. :o

    That's cool - I would have never guessed it was based off of that.

    I just recently started using TomZilla - it all began when I joined MsJac's site, and thereafter, TomZilla was catchy and easy to remember so I just continued to use it.

    On most forums, I usually use TomZilla, Tom, or Creativetom.

    I always used my first name in my usernames.. When I first started a couple of years ago, I went by Danny Boy (still my name on the .org), and I gradually switched over to Big Dan, most admins were nice enough to change it instead of having me start a new account.

    Now I'm starting to move over to my real name, Dan Hutter as a matter of fact just last night I signed up for Yahoo, AIM, MSN, and Skype accounts with danhutter845 as the s/n. It'll take me a month or so to completely switch over.

    Well, my first name is Arnold and my last name starts with a "V", so I spelled out the letter "V" and used a nickname for my first name and....well, you understand :)

    Sure thing. Well, let's see. First the earth cooled. And then the dinosaurs came, but they got too big and fat, so they all died and they turned into oil. And then the Arabs came and they bought Mercedes Benzes. And Prince Charles started wearing all of Lady Di's clothes. I couldn't believe it.

    It must have been the combination of words and phrases used - it clicked. :P
