What does your username mean/ why did you pick it?

LadyMacBeth_

I know, I know, these threads have probably been done to death. However, people change their names, close their accounts etc, so usernames do change.

So what does your username mean?

Obviously mine refers to Lady Macbeth from the play Macbeth by Shakespeare. She is one cruel lady who knows how to manipulate men by using her sexuality, just like myself of course :pac:

lazybones32

A line from Pulp Fiction where the annoying french chick tells Bruce to "get up you lazy bones". He was tired, in bed, and someone was telling him to get up out of bed. It struck a chord. I chose the 32 bit 'cos some inferior creature took the name before me.

Favorite song..

odyssey06

I was reading a translation of The Odyssey during the first time I had to come up with a username to register on an online discussion site. 06 might be the year I joined Boards... if that's possible.

josip

was always a fan of Tito so chose Josip Broz.
Years later I discovered that Tito wasn't actually Josip Broz, but an NKVD plant.
My boards.ie experience has rung a bit hollow ever since.

boardsuser1

I admittedly did a name change in recent weeks.

Prior to that it was a previous transport related interest.

Fr_Dougal

Spanish Eyes

My granny always said she was a descendent of the Spanish Armada. lol

Fr Tod Umptious

Misspelled name of a character from the Fr. Ted Christmas special.

There are a good few Fr. Ted characters out there.

I lived in Dublin for a while but never heard of it, just googled it now, interesting!

For Forks Sake

I dislike cutlery.

LionelNashe

My username was the username of the first man I killed. He won't be needing it anymore.

ytpe2r5bxkn0c1

Just random letters typed quite blindly.

Trent Houseboat

It's a nonsense name I made up.

Charles Babbage

Without the man in my username, there would be no boards.ie.

Mister Vain

My vanity plus my love for electronic dance music.

fineso.mom

"Fine so mom I'll do them" is what my sons used to say to me when negotiating how many jobs they would have to do for lifts or pocket money. One of them had just said it as I was signing up to boards. Works out backwards too cos I happen to be a mom so fine!

Tilikum

Killer whale in sea world.

Killed three people whilst in captivity.

Watch the documentary 'blackfish'

CeilingFly

MadamRazz

Favourite character from a She-Ra when i was a child. Then my dad started calling me it whenever I was about to get in trouble

fussyonion

Vaguely recall someone on telly being called a fussy onion years ago when they were being, well, fussy.

It suits me as I am fussy about certain things but mostly regarding food. Hence why the 'onion' fits in nicely.

I do like onions though so I'm not that fussy.
There's another user on here called FunnyOnion and I always wonder if people think we're one and the same.

We're not but it's gas that someone also liked onions enough to choose it as part of their username.

Right I'm rambling. Bye now.

rekluse

I love being out n about and interacting with people.

Akrasia

When i was studying philosophy in college i came across this word and it struck a chord. it was obscure then, my tutor had never heard of it.

Now because of the internet, you can't throw a cat out of a window without hitting an Akrasia somewhere

Fathom

Can't Fathom why...

It is gas, onion gas, the kind that brings tears to the hardest of men. Hard because they love onions THAT much
