My real name is Sharon and soontobesam is a play on what my intials will be once my boyfriend and I get married (S.A.M).

What's your real name (if you are comfortable sharing) and what's your MFP name mean (or is it your real name)?

Let's go!! :glasses:

    Creech is my maiden name and 6317 is an old phone number I had years ago and have always just liked that group of numbers together. I know, I am a little odd. :tongue: :laugh:

    Ha- okay so maybe you could help me with this one. My name shows up as my username and I CAN'T figure out how to change it! I thought it said CFarrow85 but uhh...no. So anyways, Chrissy is my real name but how in the world do I change that? I really don't want my full name on my profile. LOL Promise you won't stalk me guys!

    My real first name is Heather. I just recently changed my username because I was using my first initial and my real last name and that wasn't such a good idea.

    Anyway, my username is the name of my label for the custom purses, bags and other crap I sew. The label used to be Stitch ***** but I changed it a while ago when I started doing other artsy craftsy crap like turning old Rolling Stone magazines (and other paper/fabric prints) into functional art/furniture via ModPodge.

    I bet all can figure mine out :) it's not that I am not creative, it's that I wanted to be simple....

    My name is Mel, and I changed it from a different name...heck, I can't even remember what i started with...but, I changed to this, after trying to come up with something that reflected my new life journey. One of my MFP friends came up with it, and I loved it! I think before it was my last name and my first name...pretty plain.
