Drunk and wondering...(lighthearted)

[Midsommar]

...how you came up with your Mumsnet username?

I've seen some strange ones (one that stands out is JizzPigeon haha, strange is not a bad thing!) so I was curious as to how you came up with your names.

I was watching Mad Men and thinking of adverts I remembered when I was a child - this was one for sausages some people might remember

I think mine is obvious,,,

Mine is the meaning of my first name and my favourite floral scent.

@WorraLiberty please tell me you have a Cockley accent everytime i see your username I picture you as the Nan

Frustration after trying a lot of names that were all taken! I just wanted to see if I could find anything that worked and once it did I couldn’t be arsed to keep trying.
@TheZeppo I wanted a cool Buffy reference but couldn’t think of one at the time!

I looked around me and saw "Drink Responsibly" written on the side of my beer bottle and just adapted it a bit.

I love sushi and have always wanted to go to Japan!

My son had a lunchbox with dinosaurs on and one was doyouthinkhesaurus but that was taken so changed it slightly.

Must have been about 10 years or more ago, said son is 18 soon!

Mines after something my pal called a guy trying to chat up a woman way out his league
'sad sweet dreamer'

Mine's because we take the piss out of where we live and what we'd do if we ran out!

Couldn’t think of one so looked around and that was nearest to me!

I've been wondering what ssd stood for for years and never got round to asking you!

@WorraLiberty

They are legendary....

I wonder if I've got the shortest name here?

I wasn't in a good place when I first stumbled across MN and I really related to the 'just keep on keeping on' mantra that appeared in a lot of the posts.
My username seemed a good way to remind me to do just that!

Mine is from the simpsons.

Totally random. (I like changing names). So DS was doing a puzzle. I look at what's on the mantelpiece (candlesticky) just totally random.

The name that means something to me are always gone

I have several. This one is the result of a thread, but I can't for the life of me remember the details.

This Country.

I've had a couple as mainly a lurker over the many years I've been on here.

But this one has stuck now.
It's to do with my job and where I work.
We had a thread before about making an assumption about the person above based on their name and a few people said i was a Queen fan which i couldn't understand. But to some people it obviously sounds like Bizmillah which made me laugh

That's the one! I'm thinking it's time to read it again.

@lovemyfurrywuff

I have a furry wuff and I love it.

Have you ever considered waxing?

Mine's from the days of the What's Your Pornstar Name? bollocks. With the exceedingly outing maiden name initialised. Because it actually sounded really convincing.

I pulled mine off the top of my head.

She's a character from a Saki short story who is mistaken for a family's new governess and decides to just go along with it for a bit. I thought it was appropriate in the context of childrearing.

As a toddler, I was frightened of a certain Playschool character’s ‘horrid’ face. Family in-joke (not hugely funny to anyone other than us).
