I find a lot of names on here interesting and I'm sure there are good stories behind how everyone chose them. Anyone like to share? For me, Kindle is my horse's name and she was the "straw that broke the camel's back" in my decision to have VSG. I feel bad for her, having to lug my fat ass around the mountains and would love to be able to hop on her without having to find a rock or log to climb up on. (there's a dozen other reasons behind my decision, but my profile name is my tribute to her and how much more fun we will have next summer!)

What a fun topic.

Now how to explain my profile name ribearty. My husband shortened everyone's name in our family to the first syllable of their name and added bear behind it. My first name is Rita so I was ribear. At the time we were buying ty beanie babies which explains the ty.

I looked up my hooker name. Until this post I hadn't heard of this. I found I have a "new name" Raquelle Glitzfire.

Miss Mac's hooker name would be BUFFY HENDRICKS. Sounds like I missed my calling!

I have 47 acres out in country & can't wait to leave city life behind. I love hunting& fishing anything outdoors working the land.

Yep ! that sounds like a country girl ! LoL

Mine is my beagle's name! I thought I was the only one whose screen name was after an animal!

Just curious, where in WI are you? I grew up in Plainfield.

I'm in Wauwatosa, right in Milwaukee.

Well . . . I'm a geek. I have a Master Replicas lightsaber sitting on top of my bookshelf (Anakin Skywalker's, if you're curious), and a Weta copy of Bilbo's map to Erebor, among other things. I know all the lyrics to Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog. I have dressed up as a Jedi when it was not Halloween. I've been out of the role playing scene for ages, but I have a friend who's trying to get me back in. I'll probably let him. And since most geeks seem to be guys, I added the "girl" to the end to make it clear. I can't really explain the fake 1337-speak . . . (using numbers for letters), it just seemed like a good idea at the time.

I live in Kansas City, I'm a gal and I was born in 62!

Blore is the short name used for Bangalore (India), which I've been planning to move to for the past 3 years. Almost there. 2 more months!

My hooker name, Sitka 47th. Must be where I "work". And perhaps I'm popular with Alaskans. /wink

Been in your backyard many times to go to the State Fair. Lots of fond food memories there....cream puffs, cow pies, baked potatoes, gyros, Lions Club corn on the cob right there on the corner by the giant slide....mmmm. Sorry, I'll stop now . Great concerts, too.

SparkleCat- several years ago a friend and myself decided to go to a huge Carnival party...while getting ready we literally covered ourselves in glitter! Glitter hairspray, Body Glitter, glitter make up....it was everywhere! When I got home, I was so exhausted (and, being honest, more than a little schmammered) I crawled directly into bed and slept like a log! I woke up the next day and the glitter covered everything! My sheets, my floor, my clothes and my jet black, long haired cat, Kisa! I texted my friend "oh my God! Kisa is covered in glitter! I have a SparkleKitty!"

Since SparkleKitty could be construed as slightly risqué...I cleaned the phrase up for public forums...SparkleCat was born
