I'd love some explanations for some of the less obvious "monicas". I know Hilarysmum but what about some of the others...
A colleague of mine has the email address easyme@... I thought "easy me" was a strange email address but turns out her name is Elizabeth Anne Syme. Just depends where you put the emphasis!
I put this here under a new heading, so that it didn't hijack the cold weather feeding subject (hope thats ok ?).
Anyway , mine is very simple.....Rustyme, well my name is Russell and I often get called Russ or Rusty. When going online and registering on forums or similar, Rusty is very often taken (loads of Rusty's out in the states!!). So I just stick the me on the end...Rusty me. ::) Really boring I know...but there you go..
cheers

Good idea, Russ - I've moved mine -
My 'monica' is DOGANJO
DOG because I have loads of them, AN is half of Anne, JO is half of John (my late husband) = doganjo
Easy peasy, used right from the beginning of the internet days ;) ;D

Mine is from a centuries old argument between two historic towns set about 3 miles apart. Corbridge (where i live) and Hexham. Its a bit like a derby match where one group uses the name proudly - Hexham measure - a generous helping an extra spoonful in a bushel or a bakers dozen (hexham Version). The other group uses a disparaging version - Hexham measure - a dullard, someone who is short of a sixpence... a sandwich short of a picnic (corbridge version). Sometimes i wonder if i was born in the wrong town.....

Brilliant!

and yours, rosemary? ;) he he, couldn't resist that! I'd love to know about Dandanns

Well mine is easy it's my name, Sandy. Christened Sandra and named after my Great Grandad Alexandra Pryde who was Known as Sandy. As a teenager I dyed my hair red and was nic named "cocanut" probably due to all the fizz, that soon stoped when I went blonde!!!!!

hmm mines pretty boring..... we live in Finland, and in finnish its "Suomi", just sounds bit more exotic than "finland" and it also sounds like it could be a "real" name, so there you have it! ;)
-
Mine is pretty obvious - that's Hilary on the bed
-
well.............its simple ;D
I'm danielle, and my surnames dare...............OH was always known as dan ;)

Hiya,
Happy Hippy is a hark back to my teens when I was a bit of a rebel (perhaps still am, just now that I'm older people have given up telling me what to do, how to dress etc)
I have others - Boris (my dogs name) is my poker name, kinda gives me the upper hand on-line as people assume it's a guy and not a girl.
And 'manic mummy' that one speaks for itself, and after no.3 arrives in late April it'll have to change to triple manic mum ! lol!
Karen :pig:

Hi, danndans
Are you really Danielle Dare? Done much space exploration?
-
I was too polite to ask! :o :o :o :o ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
Thats a realy cool name, Dan Dare! Has anyone else such a cool name? I went to colledge with a Suzie Shade (sounds like a porn star) I want to change m name as I hate being associated with Foxon as it was my Ex name but have NO connections with Cleaver, my maiden name, I used to work for Social services and Knew lots of families, unrelated, called Cleaver so cannot see any reason to go back to that name, I may make a name up as my partner was adopted so even he does not belong to his name!!!! Anyway, I will keep my own for now even though I hate it!!!
-
:P yep realy am !! ;D ;D
and too make it worse the last house we lived in was actualy called "the white house"
I would sign checques, they would want add on back because of my name, then they would call the manager to see if it was ok once they saw the name and address ;D ;D
i must admit tho..............i did put mickey mouse disney land on one and they didnt even look at it ;D ;D

We used to have a librarian in one of our schools called Pauline Page, which I thought was pretty apt. One of the local Health Board dieticians is something Fry.
-
My user name is my name. It's actually short for Michelle but i've always been called Micki.
-
How boring am I,!!! I feel I should have been more clever will put my thinking cap on tonight when I am trying to defrost the hens water ........again. Since having 6 kids though I find my brain has gone astray, any ideas anyone? ;) ;) ;) :chook:
-
A brain transplant? ;) Mine went mushy after only 2 kids - and hasn't improved in 38 years ;D
-
Ok,I guess I had better explain mine... not hard though,all my nicknames for various websites have been phonetic (why isn't phonectic spelt phonetically?)
MrRee = mystery
Donkey_Oaty = Don Quixote
MrMeaner = Misdemeanor
Rule_7 = an army thing following on from the "6 P's" (previous planning and preparation prevents poor performance) rule7 = everything is subject to change.

Murmuring Wheel is actually from a Wordsworth poem. It is about a belief that was one common in Cumberland and Westmoreland that wool was easier to spin while the sheep were sleeping.

Mine is my registered prefix with the British Goat Society for the goats. So they are all Ballingall something. When I was wee and wanted to register it, I wanted someplace local but that began with my initial (B for Beth), so the bridge at the bottom of our road was Ballingall Bridge and I used that.
I sometimes use vale which is part of our house name. And orginially I used to use babe after babe the pig, and because I look anything like a babe!
