Guest mormonmusic Posted December 1, 2009 Report Posted December 1, 2009 (edited) Just curious whey people have picked various login names and or picture/avatar. Some of them are very creative, others unusual, but I'm sure they all have meaning to each of you.....I'd be interested in hearing what you have to say. Mine was borne out of a desire to get on with the login process, not knowing I'd connect with this forum or not....so my first choice -- Mormonman, was already taken. So, I went with Mormommusic since I play a variety of instruments, and also play in a jazz quartet, and love music in general.... Edited December 1, 2009 by mormonmusic Quote

pam Posted December 1, 2009 Report Posted December 1, 2009 I picked the name "pam" because I've kind of grown attached to it over the years. Gingy is because he's my favorite character in the Shrek series. Quote

Dravin Posted December 1, 2009 Report Posted December 1, 2009 A name I thought up when I needed one on a MUD I was playing. Hm... I wonder if I need to start watching what I tell people in fear of dating myself. As far as the image, I was fooling around with some floam type stuff my Mom sent me for Easter on my Mission, he is Nimrod, the mighty hunter. Quote
Vort Posted December 1, 2009 Report Posted December 1, 2009 I need to start watching what I tell people in fear of dating myself.I'm pretty sure dating yourself is frowned on, Dravin. You should talk with your bishop about that. Quote
beefche Posted December 1, 2009 Report Posted December 1, 2009 beef" is part of my last name and "che" (pronounced chay) is a Bulgarian (my dad is Bulgarian) diminutive (means "pertaining to or productive of a form denoting smallness, familiarity, affection, or triviality"). So, beefche means "little, darling beef". Or I could just be a heifer who likes to clean monitors. Quote
Dravin Posted December 1, 2009 Report Posted December 1, 2009 I'm pretty sure dating yourself is frowned on, Dravin. You should talk with your bishop about that. Can I help it if I'm always spending time with myself?We like the same entertainment.We have the same taste in clothing.We love the same foods.We get along great with each other's parents.We share the same sense of humor.We share the same expectations in a relationship.We even go to the same singles ward.And of course, we both agree the other is ridicoulously good looking.And to think, we were even in the same kindergarten class and it took us this long to find each other!

There happened to only be four of us there, and we played a game in which my wife and I were teamed up against two 18 year old men. I won't describe the game in detail, but it's important to know that the game was stacked so that my wife and I had no trouble completing the task while the it was nearly impossible for the other two to complete their task.When asked why it was so easy for us, I responded, "well, between the two of us we have a combined IQ of about 300." But I was afraid that I may have inadvertently implied that they were stupid. So later, when I had a chance, I commented that I was sure they had a combined IQ of 300 as well. Then toward the end of class, the teacher asked a question, and after a brief silence, I decided to answer starting with, "well, I have a combined IQ of 150, and I think...." I never got to finish my statement because we were all laughing to hard. The teacher also ended the lesson there. Apparently I had effectively killed the spirit. Oops.So there you have it, MOE has a combined IQ of 150! Quote

prisonchaplain Posted December 1, 2009 Report Posted December 1, 2009 I picked mine so people won't have to guess which moderator is not a church member, and because I like to scare the little pre-teenagers who come here planning to post silliness. One look at my mug and the scamper away, back to Disney & Nickelodean sites. :-) Quote

Prodigal_Son Posted December 2, 2009 Report Posted December 2, 2009 My name? Because it's a universal title that can encompass my entire life - no matter how close to God or far away I've been. My avatar is a picture Moksha posted once of our Teleprompter in Chief, as perceived by waaaaaaay too many ignorant people. I found it to be great satirical fodder. Quote
SMG Posted December 2, 2009 Report Posted December 2, 2009 My name/handle consists of my first, middle and last initials. My avatar was something I used to call "my self portrait" because people referred to me as one of those creatures. I picked it because I thought the black and white cow looked cute. Quote
