    Years, and years ago... somewhere in the vicinity of 1996 or 1997, I decided to open up a Yahoo account. I needed a name. I was getting tired of my BBS/AIM handle so wanted something different. The previous Friday night we'd watched Stargate, and it had a Goa'uld named Linea. Unfortunately, at the time, I didn't pay attention to the credits, I liked how the name sounded, and I spelled it with two Ns. Linnea was taken, so I just picked a number that seemed to flow well, Linnea4 was born. I've been using it around and about the internet ever since.

    Although, recently I've felt the bug to change things up a bit, so I actually changed my Steam ID. Haven't decided if I'm going to use Linnea4 on future accounts or not.

    My friend, who teaches Combat at my gym always says we're her Warriors and tells us to Suck it Up Cupcakes. One day somebody asked me about how we get along at my gym and I jokingly said "Well, as the Warrior Cupcake in the Back Left Corner of the Truly Fit Tribe under directions of our fearless leader, her Divaship Super Trainer, we are a close knit group." I told her about it and became Warrior Cupcake in the Back Left Corner (I'm always in the back left corner of the group fitness room because it's closest to the door so I can get out without getting in anybody's way if I get paged when I'm on call), and I am a professional belly dancer as well, so when I needed a handle here, WarriorCupcakeBlydnsr came to be

    The first three letters of my first name, the first 4 letters of my new last name (divorced this year) and the year 14, reminds me it is a year of new beginnings.

    When I originally started my weightloss journey I thought I would be able to do it in a year (ha!) so I set up a tumblr called 365-and-still-alive to track my journey. A couple years in now and trying to lose my last bit, I joined the MFP community and brought that name with me. After-all, I've survived so far.

    If you happen to be something of a sesquipedalian prone to logorrhea -- a moniker like mine -- becomes almost something like an appellation which was appointed to you by your friends in your drunken, punk rock, salad days.

    That's how I got the name Matt.

    It's a mashup of my first and last name, plus my year of birth. I'd change it to something more clever, but I like the way hollydubs rolls off the tongue. :happy:
