My son's name inspired mine, and no he's not called Lucifer 🤣

You need to turn your phone upside down to read mine Grin

RobinGet · 15/09/2024 23:47

There was a spate of begging threads and I was going to make a jokey thread about them so I chose the name RobinGet (robbing git/get). Didn’t bother making the thread in the end!

Clementine22 · 15/09/2024 23:48

Name I would have picked had my son been a girl 😊

Tim’s a bit gormless.

I love the colour of terracotta and I'd love to live on a farm, or in the countryside one day.

Maureen! You're no help behind the door! 🤣🤣

Even funnier for me as I'm Irish!

They are a bugger to catch. DH broke one of my favourite ornaments chasing a bat round our living room with a butterfly net 😥

MrsElijahMikaelson1 · 15/09/2024 23:55

The Originals-a vampire series 😳guilty guilty pleasure. Change between Elijah and Klaus as the mood takes me.

Battlerope · 15/09/2024 23:55

I just started a fitness/diet programme in which they feature prominently.

Ginandtoniconthedeck · 15/09/2024 23:59

I love gin and tonic and just replaced the whole wrap-around porch/deck on our house, so I can now enjoy a lovely G&T on my deck without worrying I'm going to fall through it!

LibyanFeet · 16/09/2024 00:00

It’s a nod to my background, and to someone I know who has an unfortunate habit of putting his foot in it. 😉

DreamTheMoors · 16/09/2024 00:05

I can’t tell you because what I thought were the moors were in fact not the moors but I still would like to see the moors.
And the Lake District.
And the Peak District.
And the coastal areas.
And in fact, England.
lol

JuvenileBigfoot · 16/09/2024 00:05

In-joke from a podcast I listen to l.

MartinCrieffsLemon · 16/09/2024 00:08

I name change often when I get bored of my name

Currently it's because I was listening to Cabin Pressure and it was the episode with the Traveling Lemon. TheLemonisinPlay was already taken so I came up with this

I'll get bored again in a few months and we'll see what's around at the time to inspire me

“He’s making a mockery out of you boy”

It will never get old 😂👌🏼

Why is it more funny with the Irish as well?

I’m Welsh and imagining the equivalent :

”Oh Bat, what’s occurring. What you doing in here now flying about. I’ll catch you now, in a minute. Tidy”

MuseumGardens · 16/09/2024 00:19

Named after York Museum Gardens.

‘Oh butt, where toos he gone? Tampin I am, throw a dap at him now Gav’ 😂

Mine was because someone had really annoyed me shortly before I name changed.

A line from one of my favourite films - Harold and Maude.

Nataliaa · 16/09/2024 00:23

I’m very boring. It’s just my name 😂

Candyiris · 16/09/2024 00:24

I just put my finger on the keypad and squiggle circles. Whatever comes up I use.

I'll do it now....... Cerrutisoak.

I used to give usernames a bit of thought but I change so often I ran out of inspiration!

Nataliaa · 16/09/2024 00:24

Well it’s my name with an extra a. Just to make it slightly more exciting 🤣😑
