AIBU username envy

Inspired by electricflyzapper. I am compleatly envious of some of your usernames! I wish I was creative enough to think of one that good. Am I the only person who gets this? Is it unreasonable? If you also suffer username inferiority complex, whose username do you covert?

Me! it was such a funny thread where all the user names got changed. Yours is especially clever, MyLittleYoni, just two letters different from your previous user name?

MyLittleYoni · 18/09/2015 18:39

No, Random, I just got into the yoni swing of things that night. I was also YoniM for a while. Grin

gallicgirl · 18/09/2015 18:41

Nah, you imagined it Wink

I chose a rather dull name quickly and then agonise over name changes for holidays. I would love something slightly witty that isn't laboured. It would probably help if I read more books rather than -wasted- spent all my time on mumsnet.

I have always liked SirChenJin, AnyFucker, all of the Zing incarnations. Although I am now a fan of AWombWithoutAFoof Smile

SilentBob · 18/09/2015 18:44

I love the witty ones and the sweary ones.

I've been Bob forever and ever and am too lazy/un-witty to change.

LargeGoldAtrociousCunt · 18/09/2015 18:45

I have a Yoni one too, it didn't last long though, I'll find it Grin

Iamnotloobrushphobic · 18/09/2015 18:46

I've got serious user name envy. The best one was unexpecteditemintheshaggingarea.
I'm rubbish at thinking of usernames.

Ain626 · 18/09/2015 18:46

Haha. I like yours ChopinLizt Smile

There are some pretty good ones on MN. I'm really not very good at thinking of them though! I do get username envy, so I say YANBU. Grin Wink !

YoniHaveToAsk · 18/09/2015 18:50

Twirls

It really isn't me though.

GoldPlatedShitGibbon · 18/09/2015 18:50

Annie, your name always makes me feel happy for some reason. Smile

AnnieOnAMapleLeaf · 18/09/2015 18:53

Thanks Gold. Even with hackergate, I just can't name change. I have been AOAML for far too long.

ahbollocks · 18/09/2015 18:57

Cattheifkeith is actually my real life nickname Blush
Totally outed myself there but I used to vigilante help animals in need (from homes where the ladies and children of the house were using women's aid, fostered their moggies until they found permanent accommodation, so no flaming please!)

WannabeLaraCroft · 18/09/2015 19:04

Mine is boring, but I'm not clever enough to think of a witty one. Hope I don't ever have to name change, I don't have the energy! Grin

Cerseithequeen · 18/09/2015 19:06

I'm impressed by ShitGibbon though...Grin

I think somebody had already chosen the really witty one that I wanted...

I love some of the others.

Worraliberty
DixieNormas
CluffyFunt? Or did I imagine that one?

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 18/09/2015 19:16

I'm very attached to mine. Euchre is the all time greatest my favourite card game and a Euchre night with friends and lots of vodka is one of the best ways in the world to spend an evening.

I like so many of the ones on here but one not mentioned yet I don't think is CharlieUniformNovemberTango

I also love anything Agatha Christie-related, probably my favourite is AriadneOliver but that is only because she is my favourite AC character, nothing particularly clever, no pun or anything.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 18/09/2015 19:17

Oh and HOW could I forget TSSDNCOP

Although I haven't seen her around in quite some time.

YouBastardSockBalls · 18/09/2015 19:18

I particularly like fuckyouchrisandthathorse - but wonder who is Chris and what have s/he and the horse done that is so upsetting.

It was epic, search the name and you should find the thread. I think I remember her being just FuckYouChris before the horse came along so maybe search for that!

AlmaMartyr · 18/09/2015 19:18

I love loads of usernames. ChopinLizt makes me smile.

MaisieDotes · 18/09/2015 19:21

CunnyFunt - is that the one whycan't ?

Mine only ever mean anything to me. I like AyeAmarock , I always sing "I am an i-ee-i-land" in my mind after reading that name Smile

HaydeeofMonteCristo · 18/09/2015 19:22

I like all the sweary ones.

Also, there was someone called Wednesbury on here at one point, which I liked, because (in law) it means "so unreasonable that no reasonable person could have done it".

ChopinLizt · 18/09/2015 19:23

I liked AtYourCervix but she's not around anymore...

GoldPlatedShitGibbon · 18/09/2015 19:25

Thanks Cerce, it's from the chuffing marvellous Veep, one of the many insults thrown at the hapless Jonah.

GoldPlatedShitGibbon · 18/09/2015 19:26

What happened to AtYourCervix? And FellatioNelson, come to that?
