Salomé ?
Mercedes ?
Simone ?

edit : sorry, my name on boards is meant to be mountains and heather but there must have been restrictions on how many letters you could use at the time because I never got further than the h.
Chose it because I love scenery, am surrounded by the above, so I guess that's what came to mind.

My real name is a classic sort of name, and my parents just chose it because they liked it. No reference to anything or anyone.

We had this thread not too long ago so I apologize for repeating myself but I am in a relationship where one of my partners is free lance and her living with us means she can declare a surprising amount of things as expenses.

And the day I joined Boards.ie we were filling out one of these LONG and COMPLICATED and HORRIFIC forms.

And the day I signed up and was looking for a username my eyes fell upon a "Tax Accrual" form and the cruelty of the tax system fell upon me emotionally. And hence "Tax" AHHHHHHHH CRUEL! came upon me.

And that was that

Dude. Stop taking the sexy out of threesomes.

With a name like Mr Muffin, maybe your dad is Ron Jeremy?

Wang King · 05-07-2015 12:25AM

I'm trying to think, her age prob means things like Mousetrap are out, all L Webber's are out. But she didn't say it was musical theatre, so it could be Shakespeare or anything like cat on a hit tin roof, ...west side story? ........and yes, I prob do know a bit too much about musical theatre for a straight guy

It might not have been musical theatre. Or maybe it was. Might have been a comedy show and a sketch characters name. Or it might be a character from a song or a dance.

You won't get it.

There is only one other after her. She is doing a law doctorate where she teaches and studies at the same time. I do not understand it

I suck when it comes to law.

godtabh · 05-07-2015 12:30AM

I'm named after my parents friend who was shoot in a pub a couple of days before I was born. A robbery that went wrong. He was the son of the owner. My parents (well I hope just my dad) were having a few after hour drinks. The robber burst in and shoot him. I was born a couple of days later

I'm not that big of a bloke and i'm always horny

boobar · 05-07-2015 01:21AM

Just liked the sound of it

Whatsisname · 05-07-2015 01:32AM

Changed it to a male version of Green Day's song "Whatsername"

Digital Solitude · 05-07-2015 01:36AM

I live very much in my own head and spend a lot of time on the phone, pc or with a games console with no human interaction. I was explaining this to someone and told them that I lived in digital solitude and I liked how it sounded.

My father insisted that one of his sons be named my name, so here I am. I think he just likes the name.

Menas · 05-07-2015 07:52AM

I was called Adam when I was born. But when my parents got me home from the hospital they discovered that a shop had just opened in our town called Addams.
So, not wanting me called after a shop they changed my name and called me after my uncle.

KatW4 · 05-07-2015 08:22AM

Boards name is short version of my name and an even number because I hate odd numbers!

My real name is an old name and I was named after my two grannies. I feel like a granny with my full name!

Medusa22 · 05-07-2015 12:43PM

Well, I studied Classics in college and the myth of Medusa is one of my favourites. Then I got a massive tattoo of her on my back so I thought that I'd use it as my username, and well, I was 22 at the time. Not the most creative, granted.

haro124 · 05-07-2015 12:47PM

Was doing my CAO around the time I joined boards and ended up picking Chinese, hence haro

No.9 actually heard the monotonous voice machine thingy of Prof. Stephen Hawking when she read this...

Why do you have your name?
