User name history

rebel_26

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 .

Had to have a good name for my big time wrestling matches with my grandkiddos.

rebel_26

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 .

spondypete

Why Spondypete? My name is Peter and I have a form of Rheumatoid Arthritis that is called Ankylosing Spondylitis. My (very good) Rheumatologist calls people with that disease Spondies and ever since she called me a Spondy in 2002, I have been calling myself SpondyPete. So now you know what the Spondy stands for.
