    My name's Joci and I'm unmarried. It's been a nickname for a long time. :)

    I edited it, because apparently I thought there was numbers on my profile name. Lol!

    MsPetuniaPig... When I was growing up, I was the biggest out of the daughters. (Taller too) My dad used to oink when I'd eat and call me Petunia.. You know.. Porky's wife.... It reminds me of one of the biggest reason's I am here. There are plenty of others... My family calls me Sam... I was also Samu.. or Shamu... after the whale.

    I don't let it hurt me anymore... I just laugh right along... I will never be that person again. :)

    sorry that You had to endure that, Dear. :explode: ...it boils my blood that one's own family could be that way. here's some flowers. :flowerforyou:

    Mine is the scientific name for a ladybird (ladybug), cause I'm a girl on a mission to get strong just like a ladybird. Plus when I met my husband 17 years ago he used to call me his ladybird.

    It wouldn't accept what I wanted, so tried to think of something sight specific. Want to look handsome and not like a trophy bass-strong healthy body with a big mouth and a big gut.

    My profile name is Cadillac Cowboy which was my hubby's name when he was "into" country and western stuff where they used to dress up and do the quick draw with the replica guns. My hubby passed away almost six years ago. When I see his name it reminds me of happier times.

    definitely, my favorite one. :drinker:

    hannata derives from my gamer geek pokemon loving nature.. On a gaming forum I frequent one of the admins is called Ash, and he adopted me as his pokemon and gave me the name =P

    basically : Hannah + rattata = hannata

    86 is my year of birth

    I never thought I'd use the website, just the app, so when the first couple of names were taken I just punched something in and now I hate my name!

    My last name is Evans. Spelled backwards that is snave. Apparently this is a pretty common way to come up with your internet handle for various forums and it is often taken by some other Evans character. I added the 88 because that is the year I got married and voila! Snave88!!

    Mine comes from the Adam & Joe BBC 6music radio show. It was something Adam said by mistake when he meant "any different", and turned into a minor running joke. On another site my username is also Adam & Joe related...what a geek.

    People in the East pronounce my name "Shurl" instead of "Cheryl", so I have various nicknames derived from that: Cherylie, Shurlie, Shirley, etc.

    "Moore" is my last name..."heat" is actual short for the nickname I acquired in highschool...I was a fast-pitch softball pitcher and my coach would always say "give em the heat or bring the heat"...then one day he started calling me "heater" and that has been my nickname since 9th grade...the "16" is my favorite # and has always been my sports jersey # for whatever sport I was playing. :)

    Punked (has to do with my love for all kinds of rock music, including punk music) + Poetess (My love for writing modern day poetry and I am a woman). The use of the two words being the same letter also signifies how I often use alliterations when doing my writing.
