What does your username mean?

[SkygardenTower]

There are lots on interesting usernames and I often wonder what they mean.

Mine is from the Rivers of London series, skygarden Tower is a made up Tower block in London which focuses magic.

What does your username mean? (Obviously only it isn't outing).

Phoebe from Friends (spelt wrong tho)

There used to be a user called “don’tforgetyourkegels” or something similar or maybe just “kegels”. I blame her disappearance for the fact that my pelvic floor is utterly useless….

It was the pseudonym used by George Harrison when he co-wrote and played guitar on a song with Eric Clapton.

Eric Clapton and Ed Sheeran both then used the same pseudonym when they appeared on each other’s songs as a tribute to GH.

I went to Costco in Feb 2020 😂

I needed a name quickly and I was rereading Cranford at the time. I was at the bit where Miss Matty gets so flustered at a visitor she puts on a cap whilst already becappped. Seemed like something my befuddled, menopausal self might do.

96 Tears by Question Mark and the Mysterians.

Massive fan of Better call Saul

But that would be Crurlyshabtree!

Was it Giant Haystacks?

@Watchkeys it was Big Daddy

It means that I love my cat who's named for the colour of her eyes.

Well I've learned something today. I thought the Stranglers did that.

Very obscure Terry Pratchett reference.

Mines my favourite NailsInc nail varnish.

Button Moon reference

Your username is actually from 'Adore you', not watermelon sugar.

I just look around and use random items as I name change often. Sometimes it's meaningful, other times not. This user name came from Alan Titchmarsh who was on TV (it was a typo and I left it) and the charging wire in front of the TV!

Mariel van Arkle stinks, and she isn't half the person Muriel Heslop was!

A cliche it may be, but I can't not enjoy the sentiment that no one has ton change her name, tastes, interests and whole persona to gain the approval of others. It never works, and in any case isn't necessary. Kleptomania aside, Muriel was quite okay as her own bumbling, socially-awkward self. The message that marriage is neither the be all and end all, nor a source of social affirmation for women, has to be one to love.

Up ABBA!

I'm rather fond of Jilly Cooper books ans this is my favourite character

Mine used to be my CB handle back in the day!

Mine is from when I first joined was going through a really rough time divorce etc and I used it to keep reminding me I have got this!!! Mumsnet helped me so much during that period in my life

Favourite author.

It's a quote from Victoria Wood; she shouts it in exasperation when the car in front takes too long starting at the parking machine.

That's what mine should be because I'm suffering at the mo!

My name reflects my 2 loves 😀

Mine refers to getting caught unprepared in a UK summer. Probs obvs.

Named after my favourite song by Saint Etienne

Mine is food. I was hungry when I picked it.
