OT - Your Handle/Screen Name

Why did you choose your screen name? Some are obvious, but others more subtle.

Mine is from the lyrics of Led Zeppelin's "Out on the Tiles". It's one of my favorite Zeppelin songs, and in reality I am just a simple guy. I don't like drama, I don't like to make things overly complex. There's a serene beauty in simplicity.

Mine is self explanatory-most days I feel like a stupidwoman.

Mine is an adaptation of my X-Box game name my oldest brother gave me. I used to be a Sith Lord, but he told me I was too much a goody 2 shoes and dubbed me:

Obi (my name) Moldy

Then, whenever he needed to be revived, He'd chant, "Hep me ObiR, Hep me!" Made everyone laugh, and I need more laughs.

When i joined this site, I was lost but beginning to feel hopeful.

I used my first name because I am just that not creative in this arena--other areas yes, but not screen names!

My son has Asperger's Syndrome, and they are often called "Aspies" for short...and when I used to be an investigator, my friends often called me "007" (although I was not a secret agent, just an investigator). The name "007" carried over when friends learned that I had really good aim at the shooting range or outside at various targets. Nothing living, no worries lol.

Mine is my maiden initials and my married last name. It is also the nickname we used to call ourselves when we were married as a joke with the kids. We would sing it to the tune of the "Simpsons". Now it is my email name also. Not very creative but has meaning to me.

MTZ stands for my 3 zs, all my kids names start with "z". The pink panther used to be my favorite cartoon growing up in the 70's. Be cool.

oh, perhaps an interesting tidbit, our last name ends in "z", so my kids name start with a z and end with a z, I love the letter zzzzzz.....

Berrie rhymes with my first name, and it was an endearment my mom used when I was a little girl. Good is how I like to view myself, and want others to view me too.

Mine is a name I always liked and part of an old phone number that started this journey to a divorce and my new life.
