Just that really. What is the meaning behind/origin of your username?
I’ll go first: mine is based on the name of a holiday home I visited many years ago now.

Its a pun based on a rude comment I got on Mumsnet.

Honestly? I change mine regularly and its usually just whatever i can think of that isn't already taken.

Thinking about it I often start with a product/phrase/name/line of a song or poem and change a letter or two etc

eg it could be stuff like
RubySmax
ToWeeOrNotToWee
MuchAdoAboutMuffin

Line from a Victoria Wood sketch - a single lonely middle aged woman, referring to her invalid mother. 'She's not always been in a wherlchair; she was a very active nymphomaniac for many years. Until something snapped'.

It's a joke that my best friend came up with when we were teenagers - that you could have professional stunt nuns for movies where a nun has to ride a motorbike through fire or jump of a building or something. There was even a catchphrase, "Because you never know when you'll need a stunt nun." Now I wish I had chosen StuntMum as my name instead as that would have been much better!

@StuntNun you should grab StuntMum as your alter ego quick while you can!

This one - the opening of the lion King song.

I change regularly though.

TerfOnATrain · 04/01/2023 19:58

I change my name regularly.

I’m happy to be described as a Terf, when I changed my name I was on the train to London.

i looked around me, and thought “Yeh, that’ll do”.

I'm a badly behaved woman and a Yank. 😆

My favourite beverage until I was pregnant 10 years ago and it set off my first gallbladder attack. Have been too scared to have one since.
Should probably change it to greenteawithginger.

Reckon mines self explanatory although a bit out of date really as he's a lively toddler so not really a new Mum anymore Grin still tired though

Starhead69 · 15/04/2023 23:48
