What's in a Name

Hi guys... Dont get me wrong I love being referred to as Flabuless cause hey...I am! but its always nice to be addressed to as my first name Becky...so I thought I would start this thread so that...those of us who haven't revealed our first names yet can...and also so that we can hear some of the meanings behind our unique user id's that we have chosen.

I'll start us off

First name: Becky

user id?: well mine I think is obviously cause I'm fabulously flab-u-less!

So come on guys...lets reveal the secret behind our names.

Yes, I have a BIG booty! I have been told it looks like it is on hydrolics!:faint: Anyway, I am looking forward to toning down the booty and not being a spectacle.

Hi again guys...I really wanted to resurrect this thread cause there are so many new people now and I am so curious to know whats behind their name so keep it coming aye?

:girl_hug: becky

Hmmm... Well, I love to travel, and I'm a girl! Actually, I own my own travel business and my husband and I are both Referral Travel Agents.

~Hi Everyone~

I love all of the names. It's been fun reading about where they've come from.

I am 3 days new to LBT. My name is Julie. Everyone calls me JULZ. The moniker I use CJULZGO is on my license plates. I bought my car (a red Isuzu Rodeo) with insurance money from my son who passed away 5 years ago and I'm always on the go. :)

wow...it is so cool finding out everyone's names. you guys rock!

We are now the Riverhawks. I wonder if the ladies' basketball players will be called the Lady Hawks. They used to be called the Lady Reds. Sexist language has been officially banished at NSU.

Those up-tight people are such a pain in the ass. My husband was in the Knights of Columbus (Catholic men's fraternal organization) and some of us started referring to the women's auxillary as "Ladies of the Knight". We were gonna have shirts made up, but one grumpy old biddy threatened to complain to the Bishop. Some people just have no sense of humor.

My user name is my first name Chris and 61 is the year I was born. I was raised in Cincinnati and now live in Missouri.

Well, chimboree is nickname from college. My real name is Cherea (pronounced Sheree). And the 26 comes from my birthday, 10/26. Nothing too spectacular...
