  • I got my name from my daughter. In the past when I've attempted diets I've had a tendency to go a little overboard I guess. :happy:

    Using it here reminds me that I have to take this as a life plan not a "diet" - no going crazy and forgetting that I need to maintain this for a lifetime.

    I changed my username a few weeks ago during a very very rough time. When I changed it to IHTSM it meant "I hate this so much!", but apparently you can only change your name once and now I am stuck with it.

    Any suggestions for a positive acronym? maybe, "I have the success mentality!"

    The one I came up with for you would positively get me in trouble. :tongue:

    I've always had an attraction to Tigers. It is my spirit totem, my chinese zodiac, and just my favorite. They best describe the animal inside me.
    Altaica = genus name for the Siberian Tiger
    Tigre = Tiger in spanish (my ethnic background, which I embrace)

    Catastasis:

    The third part of the ancient drama, in which the action is heightened for the catastrophe.


    I read a John Fowles's book (Daniel Martin) and this word (catastaesis) was a heading of one chapter and i didn't know the word, looked it up, liked it (love everything related to literature)

    and it's also my username on Skype.

    Hanging out with some friends in High School. We were picking random words out of a dictionary and seeing if we could guess the definition of them. My friends picked the word "toque" out of the dictionary and I guessed hat. Low and behold, it what they call the hat that chef's wear. I've been Toque ever since.

    Signature lyrics from an awesome band.
  • An old boyfriend gave me this name. I called him Mr.Maybach. He called me Mrs.Aston Martin. (with a hemi). The name just stuck with me because the A.Martin is one of the most esquisite cars in the world. He thought of me as such. Its remarkably neutral when pushed hard, and marked by vigorous action” and “smartness, especially in dress and manners.”

    That about sums it up. Mrs.Aston Martin

    My daughter gave a sign that says Herrin der Lage, meaning "Woman in Control" which is a play on the German phrase Herr der Lage ("master of the situation"; "it's under control"). I have the sign in my kitchen - the only room where I am in control!

    I like Tigger, what can I say, and the normal tigger was taken, as well as other permutations including tigz, so I just doubled up.

    Another of my online names is related to what I called myself as a kid since I had a problem saying my name. :)

    'Ave a guess ....

    I don't really think I'm going to figure this one out......

    :wink:


    Mine is first initial, last name and birth year. From my first year of high school to my sophomore year of college, my username used to be trinityblack67 because I loved the Matrix soo much. Trinity for the character's name, black because she wore black (so original, right??) and 67 because trinityblack was already taken. As you can see, I grew out of that username and became boring! Haha

    It's a name I came up with for playing MMORPG's. It's my gamer name in every game I have played since I came up with it. Quite a lot, actually. I even use it for new xBox char's. It's easy to change up too if it's already been used. Lizelle, Lize11e, L1zelle, etc. If I ever have a daughter, guess what her name will probably end up being? Yeah.
