    Emrys is the name my spiritual community knows me by. I decided my weight loss was also a piece of my spiritual journey so I use it here, too. 1976 is the year I was born. The best year EVER!! :laugh:

    In college I wrote a fairy tale and I named one of the main characters Autumn Starr-I used AutumnStarry cause I had it for my mapymyfitness name (AutumnStarr was taken there) so I figured I'd use the same thing here as well :happy:

    I have an obsession with turtles and Terrapin is usually taken so I played with the letters a but and came up with Terrappyn. Most people think I came up with the name after Grateful Dead's album Terrapin Station. Although I did grow with GD playing in my house thanks to my dad and his GD obsession it is really based on my love of the cute little reptiles. :)

    I have a deep seated love of oragami and basket weaving...

    Wow, I'm offended by that profile pic of yours, bikermike. Not because of the derogatory and misogynistic comment in regards to women, but because you forgot to include that anything with balls comes with problems, too. I enjoyed your comment, however.

    This post is so much fun! Thank you!

    Mine seems comparatively lame. Well, just lame. It's a nickname from HS. My first name is Nicole and a friend started calling me Bob Nicolata. Not sure where she came up with it, but there it is.

    I didn't think I could use some of my more colorful nicknames on here, but I see that lots of other people threw caution to the wind!

    my username is the same on almost every forum i'm a member of. it's Welsh for "multitudes."

    "Do I contradict myself?
    Very well then I contradict myself,
    (I am large, I contain multitudes.)"

    ~Walt Whitman, "Song of Myself."

    it seemed fitting - i'm a gemini and we're well known for being several people in one skin ;o)
    also, i never, ever get the dreaded "this username is already in use" message LOL
