There are some unusual user names on here, some pretty obvious and others less so.  It makes me wonder how the users chose their names.
Care to enlighten us?

I will go first.

Bionic is part of my email address.  The name was given to me after I had a serious car accident in 1985 and ended up with metal plates in my legs.

Mine is easy peasy - DOG is obvious ;D ;D ;D - AN is the first half of Anne, and JO is the first half of my late husband's name John.

I was assimilated into the collie collective, resistance was futile ;D

But it's here, and it's happening.
Massive,

Henchard as in the Mayor of Casterbridge (Dorchester) by Thomas Hardy

I used to live in Dorset and Henchard's fortunes went rapidly downhill in the novel.

So just my weird sense of humour!

Plumseverywhere - well when we bought our house we were excited to see an orchard with 70 fruit tree's. We were kind of hoping they were mixed fruit but by July of that year we realised they were all plums  ::)  having never bought a plum in my life, just not a fruit we chose to buy, I was a tiddly bit hacked off but...then...hubby found out how to make plum wine. We've not looked back since  ;)

My cousin used to call me suziequeue when I was a kid. My proper name is Susanna.

I like suziequeue and tend to use it for forums in general if I can.

It was suggested by a gun dog trainer that I lived in a Walt Disney World because of how I liked all my dogs and animals to get on together and I suppose I thought it summed me up well although I dont think when she said it she meant it as a compliment!
