    Mine was the first original band I fronted back in 1998....The Jackpot Clowns. The premise of the name was my bass player's old friend who worked the Vegas strip as a clown outside the local casinos....they called him Dugan the Jackpot Clown.

    My dog passed away last year, he was my BFF. I had a ton of silly nicknames for him (all with long stories attached) and this was one of them :) I miss him.

    Mine is my favorite names I'm called all rolled into one! My BFF calls me Tinkerbell. My kids call me mom. And my mom/sister/everyone call me 'M'(my first name). And marrying my husband gave me the 'C' (my last initial).

    I picked this handle 9 yrs about when I had my son and have no reason to ever change it! Before that I had a cheesy teenager handle ;-)

    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!

    Exactly how my "53" came about. kharper is part of my name. And the 53 used to be my initials, before getting married, on the numbers on the phone. So, way back in the day, when pagers were cool, my code was "53". And it's just kinda stuck :)

    I coached fastpitch travel softball, everyone had nicknames. My daughters nickname was Frawg, so they said I was Frawgzilla because I was a bigger version of her,lol. It later was shortened to Zilla.

    My 3.5 yr olds name is Tayla, but my hubby's family calls her Tido, and my 19 month old's name is Lyla--but Tayla couldn't say Lyla when she was born and called her Wyla.... Hense TidoWyla :smile:

    mine is from my back tattoo, that came from the last book my Grandmum read to be before she passed away.
    "The vision of hell, purgatory, and paradise" by Dante Alighieri and the five bats (something she always called me and a animal that is seen as a protector) Looking at it it looks like you are looking down into purgatory and hell with the bats at the mouth of the cave. The largest bat is flying the others are hanging upside down. On my hip I have a headstone that says "Carpe Noctem"

    Mine's pretty obvious - I like pinup art! I would love to do a pinup photo shoot when I reach my goal.

    i would love to see that, pin ups are AWESOME (also, love your profile pic)

    Mine is as some might guess the name of one of the main characters in Venus in Furs, by Leopold Sacher Masoch. I imagined how Wanda looked like and I want to look like her :blushing:

    My favorite literary character carries two scimitars. He is pictured in my tracker. It's also the web address of my blog - www.twoscimitars.com. There's a page called "two | scimitars" on my blog which explains what it means to me. :)

    Butterflies are symbolic of growth, change, rebirth, transformation and beauty. After surviving cancer and divorce, it's a reminder to me that I've been given a second chance at life and I can turn it into something amazing. 0702 is my birthday.

    When I was in Highschool, I transferred to another school. The first person I met became my best friend. She immediately started calling me Peach, because she couldn't remember my name, so I just called her Punkin in return. For the rest of our highschool carreer and into college we were Peach n Punkin. We were inseperable for years. So there is peachNpunkin. We are still best friends, and she now has 3 beautiful kids, and they all call me Aunt Peach. Love it!

    I put my real name into Bad Translator and it came out as Elizabeth Road Tractor.
    What's the bad translator? Clue me in.
    http://www.ackuna.com/badtranslator

    You put in text, and it runs it through Google translate - from English to Arabic, back to English, to Bulgarian, back to English, and so on through 30 different languages. By the time it is done it's usually unrecognizable and often pretty funny.

    Actually I just checked and they use Bing instead of Google now. I got a whole different name this time: Queen Shabomiers.
    well that bites...put my name in (full name, then no middle name) and both just come up with plain 'ole Tina...sheesh knew I was ordinary but sheesh lol
