    When I created my first online account back in the late 90s, I had to come up with a name. I looked down to see my golden retriever, Dave, laying at my feet. I've always called dogs "woofers" and golden retrievers were "golden woofers," so when I saw him, I said, "How's my golden woof?" Then I thought to myself, "Goldenwoof. Hmmmm... It's really stupid, but it's all I got."

    I've been Goldenwoof everywhere online ever since.

    Ouch! I'm going to date myself. My first serious boyfriend had a CB radio and Quicksilver was my "handle." Changed the spelling on some other site, because someone else had the normal spelling. 296 is my badge number at work.

    My nickname as a child was "Bink" because I was addicted to my pacifier (binky). Some family members still call me "Bink". When I had a baby, I started using "bink_n_baby" as my username on various forums (as in "bink and baby"). I took out the underscores, and now it's just stuck with me. I suppose it ought to be "binknbabies" since I have more than one now, but... oh well.

    I got the name from the title of a magazine article about tuning the engine of the IROC Camaro (my dream car) back when it was new in the 80s and fuel injection was a mystery. Years later I finally got one over here in the UK and combined with the fact I like rock music it worked and was pretty much guaranteed to be unique...

    My favorite musical group is Simon and Garfunkel. After trying numerous combinations of the two names when I was in college, I went to a record, found the names of the producers of the album, and put them together. Paul SIMON and Ray HALEE. I like having a some what anonymous user name.
