Most people online have a reason for their choice of user name. Outside of obvious reasons ( like your user name is part of your real name) give the history of why or how your user name came to be .

    I'll go first. I had a pure breed German shepherd. He was named Rebel when I bought him. He was stubborn and opinionated so I adopted him and kept the name and assumed it as my sn. The _26 is just easier since my email follows same format since apparently up through _25 was taken .

    It's easy to remember. I have too many passwords I have to remember. First and last initial, year born, year graduated high school. Boring. Maybe I'll change it. Probably not.

    I've been sillygoose since dial-up internet, and some version of it on MFP since 2010. I have no idea why but it's stuck now. I even have bike decals printed up with it.

    I'm not even very silly.
