    I didn't want to use my usual name and this popped into my head for whatever reason:

    I used to be very worried what people would think, so I rarely spoke my mind. I kind of broke out of my shell when I was around 20-21ish, and I started not giving a darn what people thought. So my username is a play on "Mindy says whatever she wants."

    My husband was a member of a racing newsgroup. His username was FrriFrk. When he asked me to join it, I chose FrksFrau partly to use his moniker. Our last name is of German origin, so I added the Frau part. It is now my permanent username where ever I may roam.

    Ugh i HATE my username but i was here years ago for like a day and changed it to this when i started again. Wish i could change it just one more time... Regret putting CT in it too, as i want a little more anonymity. Lol i know jennifers common but with a picture up, i just dont want to think about the possibility of people i know reading my deepest darkest secrets, such as my starbucks addiction. Shameful lol.

    Mfp- why cant we change our names more? Maybe if weve been inactive for a long time or once every 5 years? Lol something!

    When I was little my mom used to call me Hezemakiah. I have no idea where it came from. I didn't like it. (And - she was always trying to get me to lose weight.) But after she died, nobody called me that anymore and it was kind of sad. So for my weight loss journey I made it my name on MFP :)

    Mine was Momspective because I used to be a mommy blogger and my tag line was "Take a look from this mom's perspective" and I've always hated it. From reading this I saw I can change my name so I did to reflect the email I've used my whole life. JulieAnneFIU. First and middle name and the FIU used to stand for Fire it up when I was in high school but I suppose now can mean Fun in utopia.
