Pasadenadreaming · 13/03/2024 17:20

I used to live in Pasadena, California, so instead of California Dreaming (which I think was taken) it's Pasadena Dreaming as I miss it.

ElleLeopine · 13/03/2024 17:22

I change mine from time to time, always to a character from a book I have enjoyed.
Current one is from Atlas: The Story of Pa Salt.

Great idea for a thread! Christmas baubles were the closest inspiration when I had to make a username 🎄

It's an old BitTorrent site username and also a computer and a location in the world.

Tarkan · 13/03/2024 18:08

It's the name of one of my three dogs.

He's a Romanian rescue and came with the name so I don't know who picked it. I think he was originally Tarku though.

Funnily enough after we adopted him I found out my late uncle was a fan of the Turkish singer of the same name but we don't know if that's where the dog's name came from at all.

Was reading a Marina Hyde article when I was name changing. As I recall it was Michelle Mone she described as a disaster class.

Beansandneedles · 13/03/2024 15:26

You're as young as you feel!! I think I'm permanently about 25! The kids, husband and mortgage are a perpetual shock.

My definition of old age is 15 years older than I am. I'll never manage to be more than 15 years older than I am so I will never be old

SquareCrumpets · 13/03/2024 19:12

I change mine every few weeks, and just pick random stuff I see around me.

Sandsnake · 13/03/2024 20:02

Wanted something relatively short and simple. Was in a massive Game of Thrones / ASOIAF phase as was reading the books and watching the TV show at the same time so was always going to be related to that!

SirChenjins · 13/03/2024 20:06

Search engines - just came to me one day, I like playing about with words to see what I make out of them.

Groomofthestool · 13/03/2024 20:07
