    I’m a geographer and my name is Scot. Nope, not Scottish! I'm of German, Irish, Polish decent - but consider myself 100% American.

    Mine is the "internet" name I use for everything! My name is Meg and 7399...well that is an inside joke from back in HS. See, back in the day before everyone had these fancy iPhones, my friends and I were the super cool group of pager users! Instead of entering in my home number everytime I paged my BFF I entered 7399 (which spells SEXY on the telephone keypad). She knew who SEXY was and knew who to call! It kinda always stuck!

    It's what my siblings use to call me growing up. Use to make me cry growing up- now it just pushes me to do better.

    Mine is the name of a character from a short story I wrote way back in the 9th grade (25 years ago!). I have used Mythel (or Mythell or some close variation if someone has already stolen it) ever since. Wow 25 years online with the same avatar name. Nifty.

    My mum sometimes calls me Eliza jokingly. And as my shape is the way it is from doing too little, I thought I'll start doing lots! Being active should turn Eliza Doolittle into a slim and trim Elizadolots! :laugh:
