    Mine is the name of a character from a short story I wrote way back in the 9th grade (25 years ago!). I have used Mythel (or Mythell or some close variation if someone has already stolen it) ever since. Wow 25 years online with the same avatar name. Nifty.

    My mum sometimes calls me Eliza jokingly. And as my shape is the way it is from doing too little, I thought I'll start doing lots! Being active should turn Eliza Doolittle into a slim and trim Elizadolots! :laugh:

    Besides the training position I am in now, for all my Army career I've been in the Cavalry. When you go to combat with the Cavalry you earn your Gold Spurs. I've been deployed 3 times=GoldspursX3

    That's awesome!

    It's my name on Yahoo answers, my name is Dani but most of the variations were taken so I ended up with Miss_Dannii, and it has just stuck as a username for me lol. I was gonna change it and then MFP said I can only change it once so I said I will leave it for now lol x

    fabArgie Posts: 2 Member
    Well, my original name was fat argie, because I'm Argentinian and was overweight, but then I saw that everyone else had really positive names and mine sounded a bit cynical in comparison and not very PC so I changed one letter and it became faB argie. :happy:

    Moriarty_697 Posts: 226 Member
    I read way too much Jack Kerouac in high school. Dean Moriarty was the main character in On The Road. As for the numbers, train 697 was a passenger train I sometimes worked when I was a railway conductor. It was a number that I could remember easily and that no one else is likely to ever use.

    I took the first 2 letters of my 3 daughters names. So, RE is for Rebecca, AM is for Amanda and MI is for Michelle. That gave me REAMMI which I thought was pretty unique so I went with it!!!!!

    I'd like to know the reason behind the names that each of us have here on MFP. It'd be fun to know the story behind some of the more interesting ones. :)


    Mine's the title of a book I wrote.


    What's behind your name?

    what ......the little book i wrote ???? is that your name and why ?

    J is the initial of my first name. Vorrei is an Italian word I love -- I just love how it sounds. Plus, "j vorrei" rhymes, so that's kinda neat.
