Mine was inspired by the poster who thought the ABBA song Fernando had the line "They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando" and though it was Lee Bertie who was someone special in their life 😄

I have no idea! I don't name change except from the first few years on here. Don't know how long I've had this name or what uninspired moment I was having at the time!

TheFutureMrsWolowitz · 14/02/2024 18:12

Because we seem to watch the Big Bang theory all day every day

TwigTheWonderKid · 14/02/2024 18:13

Mine's a bit of lyric from one of my favourite songs and which references the 60s model, Twiggy whom I was once as skinny as.

MrsNandortheRelentless · 14/02/2024 18:13

Bloody love what we do in the shadows so when I name change, I tend to have that show as my theme..

ItsMintUpNorth · 14/02/2024 18:14

It just is.

@FasterthanaButteredOtter

As a lab owner, I can totally sympathise Grin

I want to buy a coloured horse purely to call him/her two for joy, as in the nursery rhyme one for sorrow... I don't know why! I've two kids instead and the horses are long gone

ComorosPearl · 14/02/2024 18:19

The candle I'd just unwrapped when I was name changing.

At Christmas there was a thread about someone's husband being treated very shabbily by her relatives. One way she got back at them was by giving them poor quality gravy.

😂 😂Exactly what it says, about my friend!!

FromMilanToMinsk1 · 14/02/2024 18:37

A young girl's strange, erotic journey from Milan to Minsk.

The tagline to the fictitious film Rochelle Rochelle in Seinfeld.

And a 1 because some other bugger thought of it before me!

I shredded some important, irreplaceable, documents once. It'll come to light eventually, and I've no idea how I'll deal with it.
I'll probably change once the secret's out - if I live to tell the tale.

😮 work ones or personal ones?

Mine is self-explanatory. Name change because it was potentially outing when mixed with my other posts.

DoYouWantToStartACultWithMe · 14/02/2024 18:40

It's a line from a song I love.

I name change pretty often because I tend to over share 😁

The first thing I saw when I looked out of my window.

Had it been cloudy my user name would have been Deux Chiens Baisent.

EmpressaurusOfTheScathingTinsel · 14/02/2024 18:42

I started off as EmpressOfTheSevenOceans, my favourite book, & for a long while kept to ‘EmpressOf’ names. Then Empress became Empressaurus, as inspired by ‘Dinosaur Dave’ Lammy. The current one is after someone or other called @TinselAngel scathing, can’t remember why.

Pearl jam song, I don’t tend to name change often but they all tend to be song names if I do change

I was watching Superstore and Dina is the best character.

At one point my husband thought bananas grew on palm trees - like the ones that coconuts grow on 🍌🌴😂
