Hi All!

Ok, I know it sounds silly, but I love when I get a little personal message reply inside of other people's messages. That said, I find it's difficult to remember your user names - and in some cases, they are really long. I would love to create a "cheat sheet" with everyone's user names and their preferred nickname or abbreviation of that name.

For example:

cc11395 = CC

Then, if you ever want to incorporate a message for me, you could just say "CC."

If we agree, then you could reply to this thread with the same format above:

User Name = Abbreviated Name (Nickname)

Let me know what you all think!

CC

    I hear you CC!

    m23 works fine for me, m23prime.

    I LOVE the idea, and I don't mind being referred to by my first name Alana. I came to this conclusion bc shortening my name to BM is too funny (bowel movement) ha ha ha. You can also call me Bori if you like, or m23 sometimes refers to me as "moderator" so, why don't you all pick what would be easiest to remember. I'm pretty easy, and flexible. :) Majority rules on this one... ;) So everyone knows who all are referring to. Happy choosing!

    LOL at BM! Alana, your name is so beautiful, I think we should definitely use that!

    Alana, once we have our participants' names gathered, I can compile them and maybe you could edit my original post and make it sticky for reference?

    Cool!

    CC I truly believe that great minds think alike... ;) I already had thought about doing that very same thing. :)

    Hmm everyone calls me Pidge but I do realise that has nothing to do with my profile name here on MFP so if that's a bit hard to remember just call me whatever you like! ^_^

    Well, you can call me dward, or you can call me dward59, or you can just call me Dan. I would avoid DW as that stands for Dear Wife (or Darn Wife as the case may be) on other sites where I post.

    we could just use dw to signify "dying weight". :wink: but no worries... I can add you as dward (which is what I was already using)

    LOL it does indeed. Sadly, the real story behind 5817 isn't nearly as interesting as all that. My original username was based on my Facebook username, michaelgivens5817.

    However, now I'm inspired! 5817 needs a better story... :devil:

    Hi! My nickname is, coincidentally Jess... Short for Jessica, nothing crazy like Jessaurasophagus or anything... Sadly my parents weren't quite that creative!
