    Mine is my first name and part of my last name. I think people assume the cat part means I like cats because I get called cat lady or kitty a lot. I just wasn't feeling real crafty on pick an Mfp name day I guess.

    Been using Stir fried Giblets as my screen name since I got msn, slowly adapted to skype, MFP and thestudentroom, along with a few other sites. I was trying to think of the most disgusting meal at the time and stir fried giblets just sounded like "the one" :laugh:

    It's a combo of my first and last name...I hate it though. I can't seem to come up with anything creative. :grumble:

    I've used this username since setting up my first email account in college. K is the initial of my first name and my all time fav tv show when I was younger was "Charmed" (the one with the 3 witches, Piper, Phoebe and Prue) it's a completely random thing but it's kind of stuck :happy:

    va_va_voom Posts: 467 Member
    I've had the nickname Va Va for over 10 years, so I incorporated it into my username. I stopped using obvious names (like variations of my name or email) thanks to the online stalker abilities of someone I don't want following me around the interwebs.

    zombie because I write about zombies and love zombie movies and books and comic books and TV shows...

    farmboy and a spoof on Matt Hughes' mma nickname "Country Boy". At one point, he was a favorite fighter. The farmboy name just kind of stuck. Usually on forums and whatnot I just go by farmboy, but someone here snatched it first, dangit!

    It's been my main online gaming name for about ten years so I tend to use it as a screen name when my first choice for forum name isn't available.
