How did you come up with your username? A couple of my MFP friends and I were chatting about this and I am curious.

Mine is one of my middle names. What's yours?

    I've always been scruffykaz online, whether I'm using a forum or playing a computer game.

    Kaz is short for Karen and scruffy is because I've never been your polished, hair perfectly in place girl so in a jokey kind of way, scruffykaz seemed to suit!

    9 is the number I've always put on everything since I was a kid, I guess I consider it my 'lucky number'.
  • My nickname since a child has been Weezie (real name Louise) and I love glam rock and leopard print ;)

    Mines from middle school. It is "golden-leaf" in elvish from LOTR <.< cause I wanted to be an elf when I grew up >.>
  • Mine is because I am a self confessed sugar addict and my favourites are Haribos, but I also want to be a babe,
    my other half already thinks I'm a babe, I say he needs glasses haha :-)
  • Mine is from the movie Swing Kids, they called one of the characters Herr Hitman. I had just seen the movie for the first time when I signed up for my first email account ages ago (back when a free web based email account was something new), and I thought it was something unique to use. I've since seen other Herr Hitmans online, so I guess it wasn't that clever though.
  • Mine's just my first name, middle initials (I have two middle names), and last initial. Not exactly artistic or creative. :P
  • It means "determination, desire, willpower, self-discipline, strength of mind" in Kiswahili. I wanted to label myself with the qualities I would need to reach my goal.

    Being large for so many years many people just took part of my first name then added the cuddly bear part. Thus Jerbear
  • Mine is the start of an email address I have been using for years but I had to add "2011" for a reason I can't remember now.... The M3 refers to my dream of owning a BMW M3 :)

    My nickname is 'Fairy' (has been since I was a child) I tried using Fairycakes on a different site but it was taken, so I used my real name in it's place and it stuck! I'm not even a cake person funnily enough haha.

    My nick is Fede
    And the A.K.A. part I took from playing Metal Gear Solid 2 : Sons of Liberty
    When you choose to play as snake and it says A.K.A. Snake, my natural language is spanish so I didn't know what was the meaning of A.K.A. before
    so A.K.A. - Fede
