....choose your user name?

Pretty obvious reason for mine...it is my name. I could not believe when I registered here and it was available!!

...Do you always use the same username at every website you are registered with?
I generally do not. I am only active scrapbookwise at this site, but registered with several others at which my name has never been available, so I have various nom de plumes. I sometimes have used the title of my favourite linedance at the time, or an old house name, or part of a book title, or my middle name, or various combinations of my initials, such as Jay for J.....

What is YOUR story?
 
heeh cute Jill. It makes me want to know some of you line dance or book title names :) and how do you ever keep track of all of them?!
My husbands nickname has been Cake for a long time so after we married and had children I started scrapping and thought MamaCake fitting :D
 
That is such a cute story Mamacake...thank you for sharing, (and shhhhh...don't tell but I keep a little secret booklet with my various nom de plumes listed) Mostly I only go to the other sites to "stickybeak" (an Aussie term for being a tad nosey:D)at other LOs so I don't have to log in.
 
....choose your user name?

Mine is my initials and birth year - yeah, I'm real original! Haha hehe

...Do you always use the same username at every website you are registered with?

Most of the time use the same as here JMC1988 but if that is not available I use JMC2688 which is my initials and birthday
 
My username is a silly story. Sometime around 1997-8, my best friend and I were sitting around chatting. I was telling a story and I guess I was clapping my hands for emphasis. She started making fun of me and calling me Happy Clappy. When I got my first email account, I started using hclappy and the rest is history. I'm generally hclappy everywhere. There might be a site where my username is jen_is_hclappy or something similar. I need to see if I've scrapbooked that story...

Oh and also my dad has always made fun of my username, saying it reminds him of an STD (the clap) So there's that... hehe

Great question!

My name is Em and I scrap....haha!! Hence, emscraps :) And I usually use it everywhere. It's also my Facebook name.
 
Caylynn was the name of one of my characters in a role-playing game (yes, I'm a geek *grin*). So when I started joining forums, it ended up frequently being my username. When Caylynn is taken I often pick Caylynn72.
 
my pseudo comes from my first name and I use it for every forums. but I use a different pseudo for the store.
 
My name is Tracy, but nobody who knows me well calls me that. I've always been Trace. So when I introduce myself to people, I say it's "just Trace". Rhymes with Face.

My dad called me Missy my entire life until he passed away. I've never used it as a nickname or any forum name. It's too special to me. :)

I have the same name at other sites I visit.
 
I have the username Pippin on all sites where I'm active. The reasons for my username are several: I love Lord of The Ring, where there is a Pippin, my hubby most often calls me Pippin and Pippi is swedish for birdie and I love birds.
 
Mine is pretty basic - I'm Tammy and I'm crafty - hence craftytam ;)
I use it pretty much everywhere. When I got my email address, craftytam was taken, so I just added an extra 'm'
 
Mine comes from the kids at school that were friends of DD's [where I taught as well], msbrad is short for Mrs. Bradshaw. The kids also called me MsB or MamaB. And I've signed things as 'm' since 4th grade- [because I couldn't spell Michelle....since everyone up until then called me Shelley. But my teacher insisted on 'given names'.

I almost always always stick with msbrad at sites. Once upon a time many many years ago I had a different user name...[don't remember what it was now]. Anyhow, I answered myself as I was feeling sorry for the person without a clue who had asked the question, and wanted to help when others replied with not friendly answers [which was me]. I remember the site...don't ever ask there since way back when.... I will read on it occasionally, but that is all.

Having a identity crisis...were we? Don't feel bad, I talk to myself too, but this is a unique way. hehe

from the beginning as a scrapper and a CTM at a since closed site (and I guess many others), I went by sansan..first 3 letters of both names. But now I need to be identified under the designer name; if I hadn't that would have bugged me.

My user name at my previous home was evergreen which was my favourite linedance at the time of signing up. I was with that site exclusively for all of my scrapping years prior to its closure other than a few sites I registered at for the purpose of gathering freebies:). I grew very accustomed to that name so much so that on occasions I would be at a linedance social and the compere would call "evergreen" as the next dance, and I would look up and answer "yes?" True story!!! How embarrassing, and the sad thing was that none of my non IT dancing friends "got" it when I tried to explain.
 
I am so boring. My name is Jen Crook. My username is jencrook. Very brainy I know. Yes, I am the same everywhere, I might appear to have brains by my brilliant name but I seriously can't remember multiple usernames and passwords. Gotta keep it simple.
 
My username is self explanatory - Little Rad Trio is my designer name. However, before becoming a designer I went by jmljensen (and still do on some sites). I'm so original - it's my initials and last name. However, when I first joined forums, I didn't realize it could be anything. That said, I would have probably used something with "Fred" in it, because that's my nickname from my husband. Yeah, I know. I weird one, right? But when is yells Fred in a crowded area, I know it's for me vs yelling "Jen" or "Jennifer" when everyone else is called that! LOL!
 
Hmmm, let's see . . . I am Meagan and while it is fairly un ommon, once upon a time, it wasnt available, so I chose our favorite number. Now, it is all I use. If you see meagan43 anywhere, it is me.
Ironically, this is the first year, where it is also how old I am! Lol
 
Twin Mom Scraps said:
Mine is pretty obvious too...I have twin girls...and I scrap! twin Mom scraps it is! And I use it everywhere also ;)

We love twins (and our singles as well of course:)) We have two sets of twin grandchildren!! Lots of joys:)
 
Mine is a combination of the first three letters of my first and last names ... not very clever, but it rhymes LOL

And, yes, I use the same name at all the sites.
 
I'm djp332 in all the forums. My initials and the numbers on my house. Not very original, either, but now I'm stuck with it.

Love this thread...mine is just mine name. I should change it to match my designer name but never have...the 27 is a lucky number. Hubby and I started dating on the 27th of Feb many moons ago. Got married on July 27th, his social has a 27 in it, the phone number where we met had a 27 in it, his mom weighed 127 after she gave birth to him and so on....we see 27 in a lot of things so 27 is our number :) I use it forums...if 27 isn't available I use 2211 which is my boys birthdays..one was born on the 22nd and the other on the 11th.
 
I am a HUGE Gamer. Pretty much been a gamer my whole life. And my husband works for Microsoft on the XBox Team so naturally being a gamer and a Mom and having kids who all use Xbox I became Xboxmom I've been xboxmom for a very long time and I use it EVERYwhere. My Email is [email protected] I used to have it as my hotmail too but forgot the password and couldn't recover it. Sigh. The funny thing is though It's not my Gamer Tag! Weird!
 
Thats a really good question! I dont really remember anymore but I do use it at every place I post except Im DigitalSAL at one other shoppe. SAL is my initials
 
I have been using my username for 11 years now, most places I use the same one just to keep it simple (aside from a few things where I know I prefer to keep my name private).

My user name is pretty self explanatory... it is my name, and my kids are all boys. As I mentioned before, I have been using this username for the past 11 years (since son #2).... I actually went though a little anxiety attack when I was pregnant with baby #3 that I may have to come up with a new username.... so I was a bit relieved when we finally found out he was another boy. LOL
