      I dont even use my real name in my off web life. Everyone just knows me as Lee. Even in the shows I perform in, its Lee. Single mom 37 with 2 teen kids. We all work in theatre and film.( Family in plays together,stays together) Been working on my weight so I m not always the funny fat girl side kick in shows.

      Awesome! My middle name is Lee! I used to go by Lee in HS just to be different becuz well everyone and their mother is named Heather! I should have been named Brianna, according to my mother, which is the female version of my dad's name, Bryan, but at the last minute she switched it to Heather.

      My name is Chris, and I feel I've heard far too many times that "it's not the heat that gets you, it's the humidity" or some variation. I know it's the humidity that's the bad part. I know it's not so bad if it's a dry heat like in Colorado. I know you sweat more when it's humid outside and that makes it more uncomfortable. I find it more funny than annoying, though; I'm not that much of a grouch.

      So eventually this became sort of a joke between me and my friends, and now it's my screen name for a bunch of things because, well, why not?
      That's pretty neat! Thanks for sharing!

      Everyone has different reasonings behind their screen names and that's what makes it so cool!!

      ahh man I was close to being named Veronica (version of my dad's Ronald) - I was so upset when I found that out, because I was sick of being Angela C. in all of my classes...I think one year we had 5 Angela/Angies in a class of ~30 fourth graders, ugh.

      My name is Dannielle. I've been using this user name for various things for so long that I don't even remember where it came from. There are only 2 user names that I typically use:

      Twistedhoney (I needed a name for a Warlock on WoW and was staring at a bag of Fritos Twists Honey BBQ. I pulled the name from the bag of twists. So it's not all that creative. It is however not only my warlock on Wow, but my Xbox Gamer tag and my PSN.)

      Shadow2Soul (came up with it sometime in, I want to say middle school as a user name for a game, but I can't remember why I decided on it. I've been using it for various things for over 10 years now.)

      Can it get any plainer than real name and state? Lol i wish i could change it now but ive never been that creative and wanted something easy to remember. Plus every other combination i wanted was taken, since Jennifer is one of the plainest and most common names ever.
