erstan947

When I signed up I didn't realize that my board name would really identify ME. I'm Elizabeth Ruth Stanford and born in 1947 so I used "erstan947". How dull is that.....I go by Ruth.
I only get Elizabeth if I'm in trouble with the IRS:):):)

Mariposa

Mariposa means butterfly in spanish, and I like butterflies! :)

AbbyQuilts

When I signed up I thought this was just another internet site. That I would be anonymous (and I can be if I chose) but I have interacted with so many wonderful people that it would be quite boring if I did.

So when I signed up I didnt know any better and used my "internet" name Abby. That is a name I have used for over a decade when I was in computer lab in Middle school and was told to come up with a fake name to use on the internet.
The name Abby has become so me that if someone were to call me it in real life I would answer to it.


Everyone all over the internet knows me as Abby and for the most part I am okay with that, but I have discovered that as I get older the internet is not quite as spooky as it once was when I was younger lol.

So that is how I got the name Abby quilts!

jillnjo

Mine is the middle names of my 2 daughters- Jill and Jo!

clem55

Clem was my hubby's nickname for me from way back when we were in high school. I loved the Red Skelton character Clem Kadellehopper(?), and did a pretty good imitation of him saying",there goes a flock of them. We got married in 55.

Susie Quilter

Sue is my middle name and I LOVE to quilt.

grammiepamie

The people I worked with about 12 years ago all started their families it seemed like at the same time. As it turned out the pharmacist I worked with calling me grammiepamie. She wanted me to start a daycare and take care of everyone's babies. Needless to say I retired 3 years ago without starting a daycare but the nickname stuck.

alikat110

This is what i thought also. My name is Alisha....i was going to use alikat, but "Alikat" was taken.. So I uncapitalized it and added "110" (alikat110) to differentiate.110 was my employee # at my first job and I have always remembered it....i liked my job.

PegD

First, I want to say I love this post. All the names are so fun. Mine is boring, my nickname for Margaret (which I don't like) and first initial of my last name.

dunster

When we retired in 2001, we bought a farm in the small community of Dunster, BC, Canada. It was quite a move - from Southern California (San Diego) - and we had never lived on a farm before, but we absolutely loved it. We moved to Oregon in 2005, but I still miss Dunster, BC.
