This is long past due. I've wondered since I've been on here where some of these names come from.
This subject has probably come up in the past, but us newer ones don't know about it. So for those willing to share, please tell us how you came up with your name.
As far as my name goes........... weeeeell, I think I'll keep it a secret.

My name is not terribly interesting,but, when I was at high school I played tennis,but I was terrible at it.Kids being kids my playing partners started calling me "Ace"
..." oh great serve Ace " I decided to keep the moniker,probably to remind me not to play tennis anymore.

lol patty. A fish jumped out of your tank, you panicked and while running trying to grab hold of your slippery fish you ran outside and tripped , shooting your fish forward into the road where a large steamroller rolled past. Instant fish patty.

My name is no secret ,I had long hair, and im still a git Thus I was named by those surrounding me.

My first Great Dane was a rescue (really long super sad story) named Jane Doe by the vet that took her in when she was seized by the town. The vet couldn't keep her because her boarding facility was booked up for Easter, so Jane either had to go to the pound or have someone take her as a foster. Her name stayed Jane Doe and Doedogg was a nickname. I started using that as a screen name because I couldn't think of anything else.

I played a role-playing game in which I was a humanoid feline who was one of the youngest characters of the species in the game (the game randomized the age, and I guess I just got lucky?) In any case, I got dubbed "Kitten" in a guild that included a lot of the same species. My bf at the time played the same game and he always referred to me as "sweetie." I wanted a different screen name than I had been using, so I started using the moniker "sweetkitten". When I came to FP, for whatever reason I shortened it to Kitten. It amused me at the time, for a Kitten to be surfing a fish site.

In any case, I still roleplay the part in chat or in some posts, referring to myself as a cat or doing kittenish things. It amuses me.

~Meow. Thus spoke the cat.~

I really don't have a reason for "Aquapickle27" I was just thinking of like a sea cucumber, and an aqua-pickle seemed similar.
The 27 is just a number i use for everything.

rjmcbean . . well. . .

R = First letter of first name
J = First letter of middle name
Bean = nickname in High School

R.J McBean is a character at Disney MGM studios in Florida. It's part of a Sound Effects show.

It just fit. I have had it ever since I can remember.

In my college days(1st time through) my roommate and good friend had a cat named pookie. One day, in our exceptionally poor days, I brought a sandwich home to eat. I got up to get myself a refreshing beverage, and the cat began eating the meat off of my sandwich. Right about that time I needed an email name, and I was still holding a grudge. 12 was my soccer number from high school and college.

By the way, pookie is alive and well and very fat, just getting to be an elder cat now.
