I had to come up with a screenname for my POGO account a few years ago. I have dabbled in just about every craft that came down the pike for the last 30 years ( I blame my grandmother for teaching me to crochet and crossstitch at age 6 - jk). Apparently there was already another craftyone on POGO so I added my birthday on the end.

Mine came from a nickname my husband gave our cat several years ago-she has a look of a perpetual scowl on her face so hence my name - scowlkat! Our male cat became skabootykat so my dh uses that as his name on forums. I find it interesting when I sign up on different sites and am told to pick a different name because that one is already taken!

In Michigan every one says they are coming up north, My grandkids and DS live in Ohio and come Up North to visit, I couldn't think of anything fancy so came up with just "Up North".

|
My name is Lyn, my best friend calls me Lynnie and 25 is my house no, not very creative I know :)

Mine, which I thought was so easy it would already be taken, is often misunderstood in the chat room. Qbee is for "Quilting Bee" but many think it is for "Queen Bee". I chose the name because of my grandmother. Long story short, I had been looking for a hobby for a very long time and taken many classes (chinese painting, mosaic glass art, meditation, cake decorating, etc.)and then this past July I took my first quilting class. It is hard to explain but within the first 30 minutes of listening to the humming of the machines, I knew I had found my passion. I was immediately taken back to my qrandmother's quilting bees at her church. The ladies would chat and do the most beautiful quilting. My job was to keep threading needles :D Wonderful memories!
|
My name is Mary and I guess I can be Contrary at times.
|
Watters is my maiden name.."Tide" just goes with water.. :D
|
I was justme on another board, till the name wouldn't go thru.So added 2....makes it easy to remember & justme2 works for me.

Mine is my e-mail name and patsyo was a nickname my boss gave me.
|
I am a nurse, and my hair is blonde, and 62 is year born
|
It's what my grandsons call me. Hubby is Pops, so we're Pops and Fizz, the champagne couple
|
Our kids started calling us Mamabear and Papabear when they were teenagers and I was born in 1961.
|
I live very close to several rivers in Missouri,where I used to fish a lot,so of course I love rivers. The song part is because I play several musical instruments(or used to) and I love music.
|
Mine is my long arm name
|
Hubby calls me his little Fiber Artist.
|
I don't think anyone using their name is boring. My name is boring is why I didn't use mine. It's Kim and my last name is Burt.
For my name I used the name of my quilting group. I couldn't think of anything else. I don't work well under pressure. LOL |

My board name is from a nickname that I acquired in the 5th grade . I towered over all but one of the boys and we were studying Greek mythology one semester and someone said, "Hey, Mrs Caine, Daphne looks just like one of the Amazon Warriors in the pic", and the rest is history.Well, it was shortened to just Amazon. Better than the other one though, my mom sewed most of our clothes and crop pants were the " in thing" mine were green .. I wore my new outfit to school the next day.. one of my guy friends said You waitin on a flood.. we swapped insults back and forth awhile then he says Oh, you know I'm just kidding Jolly Green Giant. I'm 6 ft. and comfortable with my height, which sure comes in handy when you need something off the top shelf :-D

Whenever I have had to choose a name or password...it is always taken. So I chose Zephyr because we lived in Zephyrhills, Fl. for 25 years and loved it there. That name has only been taken once. A zephyr is a gentle breeze, so that's ok with me.
|
Actually my parents came up with my Board name 68 years ago ;-)
|
Mine is the name of the farm I used to have. We had 160 acres with a little creek that just kind of wandered through the property so we called our place Wandering Creek Ranch and had bison, horses, a few pigs, always a cow for the freezer and of course chickens, ducks and geese. I miss it terribly and I guess it is just a way of keeping a little piece of it with me.
|
Mine is in honor of my two very precious "kids" - Teddy and Sky :D
|
Your avatar makes me grin every time I see it :)
