      My real name is Jaclyn Ortega but I freakingly hate to be called by my given name. Some people even have hard time pronouncing it correctly, sometimes I get called Yakelin or Xakelin. I was a victim of my parents wanting to give a crazy name to their first-born child back then :grumble:

      I thought of using this phrase "the most beautiful woman of the world" in Spanish as my username simply because of low self-esteem reasons since I have been an ugly duckling most of my life. I chose it to be in Spanish as my Dad is of Spanish-Mexican heritage & I'm closer to his side of family than my Mom's side who is Filipina.

      Never letting that happen again!

      I've been an avid Pirates Of The Caribbeans On line gamer for the last 4 years. Most of avatars has the name "Cy" or "Ways" in them. My first name starts with a "C". I chose Avery Ways on MFP because I'm determined to get to my goal in every possible way :laugh:

      Well it's actually Flut G.O.S. I have used the name Flut since high school. Since I typed faster than my friend, he asked if I could type his paper for him. I got to a part with the character ("blank" the God of Sun). I asked him what I should put as the character name and he said to just make something up. I typed Flut (sounds like Slut) and we thought it was the funniest thing ever. We were high schoolers mind you. haha

      vasogoma is basically an acronym from my full name. VAleria SOfia GOnzalez MAdrid. And it is funny because vaso is glass in Spanish and goma means rubber in spanish also. It is like saying rubber-glass :3
