So how did you pick your online name?

As I look through the gallery to see all of the fun new layouts, I'm always intrigued by the online names we scrappers use. My "real" name is Shana (pronounced Shay-nah), but I use breoni for my online name. It's a character name I remember from my college days.

If you'd like, please share how you selected your online name and if it has any special meaning! :)
 
Mine is kind of silly. Back in the late 90's, I was telling my best friend something, and I was very excited and I clapped my hands to emphasize what I was saying. She said "Well aren't you happy clappy today?" So hclappy is short for that.

(And don't listen to my dad, who will try and tell you it has something to do with "the clap". It does not :()
 
Happy Clappy just brings a smile to my face! Thanks for sharing that story! :)

Mine is pretty simple to explain as it is just the initials of my first name: A-M
When I used to dabble in some mixed media art I used to sign it with just AM.

There are a couple of forums I have come across in the past that I had to use more letters so then I was usually annem or eiramenna ( my name backwards).
 
That's clever to use your name backward! Sometimes, I wonder how we all keep all of our logins and passwords straight! LOL!!! Thanks for sharing! :)

After all this time admiring your LOs in the gallery, I cannot think of you as anything other than Breoni:) No confusion about my name, it is what it is and I was so surprised when I registered here that it was available.
 
Ha! This made me smile! I'll answer to Shana, Breoni, or (from back in my college dorm days) Shanita! LOL!!! And yes, I bet you were thrilled when you were able to snag that online name! :)
