Explain Your Name!

I have often wondered what the login names of people mean if you have an unusual one. Mine is a mixture of words. My coworkers and I talk in a British accent sometimes and I always say "Pip pip cheerio!"..hence Pip. I also have a rescue cat we named Talula...hence lula...put them together..and Piplula was born. Please share! I am interested in the meaning of your handle!

Love this thread, good to know what peoples name mean!

Aussie - well cause I am Australian

Kelloff - is is username I have been using since I got married 4 years ago, my first is Kelly and my surname is Radloff, i was mucking around one day and got kelloff.

LOVE PINK is the slogan for Victorias Secret PINK, a store that I always loved but couldn't fit into before I had the surgery... My goal was to be able to shop there after I got sleeved and now it's one of my favorites.

Where is OTR Sleever? I've been wondering about that name....

I'm pretty sure his name means over the road sleever' date=' he's a truck driver. (I only know that because my bf is one too) ;)[/quote']

Sorry ladies, I refrained from posting in this thread because it was in the "powder room". Not that that has ever stopped me before.

But yes, I am an Over The Road truck driver.

I'm even considering starting a thread updating my location so that I might be able to meet a few of you fellow sleevers. Haven't done it yet because I'm afraid it might appear a bit pretentious.

FIrebelle10

I'm a career firefighter (lieutenant) and since I'm a lady I'm a belle. 10 is my soccer number for college (1000 years ago).

Plus I did the 60 mile breast cancer walk and this was our team name. Imagine a group of 20 something year old guys walking for breast cancer wearing pink t-shirts calling themselves

FIREBELLES ( they were just thinking fire bells)

To all sleevers past..present... And future

YOU GOT THIS!

I think that is a good idea. I don't get a chance to meet other sleevers as I'm from a smallish town with no bariatric surgeon/support group etc. I think you should do it.

That'd be cool. I'm in Albuquerque. Most truck drivers roll through the "Big I" at some point...

Make it an annual convention and that would be fun! Invite all vendors who deal with bariatrics, exercise equipment vendors...the list goes on and on...and have informational workshops..I know..I am such a nerd!

I went to my friend's graduation dinner and saw people I hadn't seen in over a year. I heard a couple of women who I knew, but don't KNOW, whispering about who I was. One of them said "Ohhh that's Kendra!" Wow she lost a whole lot of weight."I thought it was pretty funny so I changed my screen name.

It is used to be MsKendraHL.

My name is Joanne and when I was little my nanna used to call me Jojiblossom, which often got shortened to Jojiblo. Family still use the shortened version now and I'm 40!

I am Polish and my husband is Mexican, Polish+Mexican=Polican

We call our kids little Policans or Mexilocks :P

"mwrarr" is a battle cry... :}
