What made you chose your name for mfp?

in Chit-Chat
After trying several names and finding all were taken, I was close to throwing in the towel so took a break and went for a snack - had a banana although I felt like eating Easter eggs, which led me to think about the Cadbury advert featuring a gorilla playing the drums to “In The Air Tonight" by Phil Collins.
Hence coming up with the name - Banana Beats.

As for the photo, it was the quirkiest banana one I could find.

    But I like your answer better.

    A better question, I think, is why people have changed their names AND did it reflect a change in the way they feel or behave OR did it change the way other people perceive & treat them

    I changed mine from CanesGalactica to this because I got tired of the same question "Are you a fan of Battlestar Galactica?" when that has nothing to do with why I had that name since my introduction to the internet back in the early days of the net.

    For my current name...

    1. I took a couple months break as I sometimes want to social distance myself from social media

    2. I've been hyper focused on workouts but have recently shifted my focus to food. I've been upping my proteins to see how it effects my workout performance and recovery

    4. And...boys

    Dont know how people perceived me before or now.

    Despite many PMs asking me what freeky things I like to do in the forest, that is not why I chose my name🙄😂
    I absolutely love the outdoors, particularly trees.

    I didn't just ask about forests. Gym locker, sauna, back alleys and cemeteries were in there as well.
