I change my name like some change their underwear /shiver My name Started out on AOL as: LoLuckyve = Lucky in Love = LO lucky VE Get it got it good! Well after a Few years of this name being completely not true, (sob story) and things on AOL with friends and enemies. I decided to change it. I thought about it a month or so and decided to make it: LoLucky = Low Lucky = because I was Low in luck at the time One day I called to cancel AOL because, I was tired of bending over and taking it where the sun don't shine, and I got Broadband so only used AIM not E-Mail. They canceled it, then when I tried to sign on AIM as LoLucky it said the Account couldn’t be accessed. I called up AOL and this was at the time when they decided to make AIM and AOL accounts on same server. Since I created LoLucky for AOL I would have to keep Paying for it, or wait 5+ years for the account to be re-released, to keep using LoLucky. But everyone knew me AS LoLucky, so I decided to pay for it that was 3 years ago and I’m still paying for it $2.95 a Month (account is on Hold) (I’m still bending over for them) Now everything I have is LoLucky, and on sites that make you sign up with Alphanumeric Username I stay away from them. When I started College some people in my college Dorm found out my handle, and all of a sudden teachers and classmates were calling me LoLucky. Now I’m out of college and still get called LoLucky, some people even snail-mail me as LoLucky. (Post Office Knows) I’ve been thinking about changing it again, but I have no clue where I would go from here. One day I might just be known as L! (HeHe) But that’s a ways down the road. |

I choose my name from the movie by the same name "MadameX"
As a teenager my mom and I would watch the movie every time it came on tv. We ALWAYS wound up bawling! So, when I was joining some of these forums, it came to mind and I chose it. Deb This post has been edited by MadameX: Dec 12 2004, 12:22 PM -------------------- |

I'm naughty by nature...
  Can't do nothing about it..   Well I'm using different nicks at different forums.. Notorious was first thing that came to my mind when I was registering at this forum.. 
--------------------  Down in the bayou, Bubba called an attorney and asked, "Is it true they're suin' the cigarette companies for causing people to get cancer? "Sure is Bubba. But why you asking?" "Cause what I want to know is, I was thinking, can I sue Budweiser for all them ugly women I've slept with?" |

The reason behind it may seem boring. Maybe.. But the end result is pretty cool. I like it.

Well I guess Bear, came from my now 18 year old daughter. She told me one day I was as grouchy as an old Bear (no way not me)
and that I needed to hibernate for the winter and wake up in a better mood. That was when she was 10 years old so I've had this nick name for a while now.

 I can see what you post! Group: Members Posts: 6,384 Joined: 14-February 05 Member No.: 12,053 |
Well the first four letter of my last name are YANO (my nickname at school
) and when we got AOL (  ) back in 1999 we were trying to come up with screen names, well my dad suggested to add WHIZ since I'm so good with computers, and we just stuck it at the end. So the end result YANO + WHIZ However, I've been thinking about dropping the H cause I wanna get my license plate YANOWHIZ but that doesn't fit on license plates...

 Well my monika is quite simple I guess. Being English and living in Finland I wanted a connection. Thus Saxon Man Finland. In an earlier life I was Saxon Knight, SaxonMan and even AngloSaxonMan..........But everyone thought my name was Anglo or Angelo  OH I stole the SAXON bit of the name from a Lady Called SaxonLady  .As my father is English (all the way back to 1066, when it turns out we were French Invaders. Frodo De Tylny Knight General  for William The Conquer, First King of All England), My Mother is South African with German and Irish Parents, I felt in need of some Roots. No One was happier than me when Europe decided to get its act together.NOW I am English, British and a Proud European

A children's fantasy comedy drama series in the 1970's. An 11th century wizard Catweazle, that's him up on the left (nothing like me honestly :-) ) accidentally transports himself to the 20th century whilst trying to escape from some Norman soldiers, he is befriended by a young boy and finds that everything around him is magic. He had a pet Toad or 'familiar' which he called touchwood. Happy memories and a link thanks to Jack the haack...
