God, I feel a little boring after reading this.
Do you really need to know my surname, it starts with L.
MarkL - no, you don't need to devulge your surname if you don't want to!!
Kiwi - I knew you meant 'out the window' when talking about flying!! hahaha
para - I hope the name back home doesn't involve alcohol!!
yummymummy - after 6 kids I would put that as my name too! Actually, hows this for a name for you - 'superwoman'!!!!!
ving - finally I find out what yours means! Yay! Very inventive
jasnat - hmmm, smashed together? Literally???? hahaha
fillum - when I saw yours I instantly thought of the eastern states and how they pronounce words differently ..... my ex's mother in Victoria always said film as fillum! And tissues were said as the brand name ie "Pass the Kleenex"!! Oh, and the vaccum cleaner was a Hoover!! LOL!!!

You could have lied and said you were using your neighbours name!! ha ha ha
Mine sounds like I am an old spinster!! Don't know how many other people use 'Ms' in their names?!?!?! Actually, spinsters wouldn't use Monny .... hmm, a bit of a contast there.... I just didn't like 'Miss' as that made me sound like I was only 5 yrs old!!
Boring isn't that bad - easy to remember and you don't have to think twice about how you want to spell the darn thing!
what a great thread, I agree very interesting .... another boring one here ... Jacs14 ... Jacs is my nickname from way back - Jacqui shortened, 14 my birthday.
the only thing that has become a bit of a joke is I have often been mixed up with Jules - 41Jas, which is a complement to me, but not so kind to Jules so would be interested in what you could do to change it *admins* ?????
If I was to change it then would change to KelSa {which is what I will use if ever I get to a point of being good enough to add name to shots etc} KelSa comes from mashing my kids Kelly and Sam together
Pretty boring here too. Years ago I started up a one-man software/electronic design company named 'Technetium Development' ('technetium' sounded technical) and I started using 'tcdev' as an abbreviation (technetium is atomic element #43 and its symbol is 'tc'). The company is long gone but I still use the nick 'tcdev' for pretty much all my online presence, most of which involves nerdy geeky stuff (unlike photography which is hip and cool!)

Old enough to be also be an IRC user, first group I joined was one that was populated by keepers of domesticated rattus rattus. There was already a Mick, and a Mike and I had two rats...so Ratmick was my boring solution (plus I'm in IT and hence have no imagination).
This is my daughter Emma with one of my girls in 2000:

Funny enough the name has followed me over 15 years, and it's now to be found on Honda and Kawasaki motorcycle web forums globally, photography sites globally, RC racing forums globally and an Aussie caravanner forum (and I haven't even got a van).
The rat on a skateboard avatar comes from a greeting card, and I thought it was apt given how short in the leg I am. The owner of the original artwork is unknown but I salute him now. Salute and kudos, whoever you are!

Mine is simple.. The forum wouldn't let me just use my first name, or it would add a insignificant number to the end. So I just added the first three letters of my surname.
It's just who I am. I've got nothing to hide, and I like to know that when someone wants to reply to something I've added, that they can call me by my real name.

ricstew - I have been thinking alot about your name!! That sounds creepy, I know, and I am not creepy Was wondering why you had a 'guy' sounding name!!
Hehehe Ms Monny......I am a not so little grey haired granny aged person with the memory span of a gnat! The avatar is my youngest daughter with my spoiled house cat!
Ah!! And I thought that was you in the avatar!
