    Well, my name is Susan and when I was little my dad always called me Suzie Q. When I got older I didn't like the nickname as much until my best friend changed it to Suzie the cutie i.e. QT sounded out. So I'm SuzieQT (cutie). :wink:

    WHILE GROWING UP, MY HUSBAND WAS CALLED "BUTTERBALL". HE WAS SO SKINNY. MY NAME IS JOY. SO I COMBINED IT TO - BUTTERJOY.

    Well I grew up in southern BC in a valley called the Okanagan. It's beautiful in the summers and the only real desert in Canada is located there. So I thought Suni...(sunny)....and BC...(British Columbia.) I went to use it to find out it was already taken so I had to add a random number to the end. The funny thing is my Mom is the one who already took SuniBC and I didn't even know she used that handle...lol. great minds think alike I suppose!

    Actually, I've been on the internet since I was in 7th grade. That makes 11 years of the same handle. My nickname, and my birth year. I use it whenever no one else has. After 11 years of it I get really pissy when I join a new site or something and someone has taken it already.

    :explode: :mad: :devil:

    Well, mine is so boring. I tried to make it a little decorative, but really didn't give it much thought when I did it. I've already had a couple of people call me "Oo". :laugh: My name is Marianne. Oh well. :ohwell:

    Mine came from people at my job some 20+ years ago. I would dress up everyday for work...1 day I came in to work & a co worker said "Oh here comes Glamara" & we laughed! So when computers came out needing a sign in name it was perfect...Tamaraglamara hahhahaha

    I was in a band after high school and this one guy had a habit of calling everybody and everything in that group of friends a hound or a dog or something to do with dogs. So, Randy became Ranhound. He used to sing the song "Jim Dandy to the Rescue" as "...Ranhound to the rescue, go, Ranhound, go!"

    Mine is Gaelic for "seer". I won't go into a long, convoluted explanation of why I chose that particular word {hearing sighs of relief :wink: } ~ if you're really bored, go read my profile and you'll figure it out :tongue:

    My husband will ask me a question about something that needs to be done. My response on many occasions is " I don't want to think about it right now, I'll think about it tomorrow" He then replies " I know Scarlett" As in my all time favorite movie "Gone with the wind" Husband of 37 years name is John. So---Johnsscarlett.

    I hear all the time that I'm "such a lovely lady", so I just combine that with 1977, the year I was born.

    pink for my favourite colour, and toque because it's the greatest word in all the world (and my fave Canadian word since moving from the states to Canada.)

    Don't you like how toque (too-hk) rolls off the tongue? "Toque" is my online persona/nickname and has been for several years now and everything and everywhere I register (even my own site) is pinktoque :)
