I thought it might be fun to learn the stories behind some of the user names on this forum. My guess is that many chose a simple form of their own name because, well, that is their name. Duh! Others chose a battle name to demonstrate their fight against the MS monster. Or, as our new friend, finallyseekinghelp, said, the name explains it all. For me, well, just about everything Disney makes me smile. I love the fairy tales and magic. Friends have called me Tinkerbell over the years. I love her spunk, fighting spirit, and her precocious behavior. At the same time, I love how Belle always has her nose buried in a book and, most of all, how she fell for the beast rather than the wonder boy. Thus, Tinker-Belle. What is your story?

Great post, Tinker-Belle !
I chose Tutu because we lived in Hawaii for nearly 20yrs, and in Hawaiian, Tutu means grandma. My grandkids call me Tutu! I’ve had to explain that a few times when asked if I was a ballerina. Ha! I can’t picture myself in a pink tutu! 😳😂💕Dawn
That's perfect! And, now I've learned something new. Thanks!
🤣to cute
I’m a Charles Dickens fan, and Great Expectations is one of my favorites. It’s a rich story and a good lesson on humility and real love. I like the idea the name conjures up, which has nothing to do with the book. It helps me remember to look on the positive side of all situations.
I love that. The name is even more beautiful with the explanation behind it. I have never read that book. You've made me want to do so, though.
Ditto
I too loved Great Expectations! I must admit that it has been around 50 years since I read it. I will remedy that very soon. There’s nothing like reading a great book! You can often find me reading and loving every minute 📖
Mine is my name and I practice law when I am a wake.
And probably dream about it when you are not! Wishing you wakefulness surrounded by happiness, RJones, so you can share your wisdom with others.
Hey! Lawyer here too! I’m a patent lawyer.
I do probate, estate planning, guardianship, real estate, mediation, and arbitration (commercial calendar and law division for the courts)
Nice as well! I used to do contract work for uspto.
Nice, i guess im not the only one who can’t seem to get enough sleep.

Mtns of Colorado sounds so peaceful. Good deal Jazzy
ssdw1958 these are my initials and also my Maiden name and the year I came into this world.
I kept it simple, because face it this disease is not simple.
Same goes for me my initials and favorite number born 8 month 8 day. Have a wonderful day today 
You to KC

Because any chance to use 3.14 (Pi) is awesome, right?
That's great. I have a friend who has a family, as she calls them of "math nerds." She celebrates 3/14 with pie and such. Her son is in aerospace so she sent him a case of moon pies this past March. I thought that was awesome. I love your name!
😂moon pies on 3/14 for someone in aerospace is pretty awesome too!
Yes it most definitely is!
I am a 4-H Agent; also called “the 4-H lady” by 1,500 kids and their parents 😉 So, that along with first initial and part of last name in the middle makes up mine
Perfect. Love it!
Cool
As a teenager I sold eggs door to door out of the back of a Corvair. Hence Iggyvair.
How cool. I am loving these stories!
Me too! The question was right on time too Belle! I can’t stop scrolling down for more.
Did you by chance raise the chickens that you sold the eggs from? That’s something I teach kids; how to raise the chickens and then how to market the eggs 
Yes/no. The Farmer I worked for had 20,000 Birds, when I walked in the coop in the morning all 20,000 were flying. When they landed they were silent. Trying to figure out why the hell they flew. Where and what do you teach?
Haha I would wonder the same thing! I teach kids how to raise Poultry, Beef, Hogs, & Lambs....among other things like Healthy eating habits, Science & Technology and Natural Resources stewardship and Forestry to name a few.
With the right students that could be a dream job. With the wrong students, I can't imagine
My brother taught cooking at a vocational l high school. One time he found a student washing his hair in the kitchen sink?
Hahahaha oh my goodness!!! I MUST say it’s a dream job! All the kids I teach are really good kids; they choose to be involved and most of the time have to spend a little money to do it; so they + their families are invested. I travel to all 38 schools in my county once a month with the help of an assistant; so we get them for 30 min-1 hour & then leave them with their real teacher 😉 I love to go to work everyday. {When I’m feeling good that is!!}
Sending positive vibes to help you feel the best you can to go teach!
??
Great Rob! When I volunteered, i taught the chickens station. It’s the kids favorite on the farm tour.
Very cool egg delivery car! Cool car regardless but the deliveries make it even more eggscelent!
Morllyn: I read something, long ago, that said an origin to the name Martha (my first name) was Mor (pronounced “Mar”) and Llyn is another spelling for Lynn (my middle name). The meaning of the name “Martha “ is “lady” and the meaning of the name “Lynn” is “lake” thus Morllyn means “Lady of the Lake” to me.
Of coarse this was just my playing around with words and meanings.
I think this is wonderful. I enjoy learning about the meaning behind names. And Morilyn sounds so pretty. Love it!
Names are so powerful and carry so much more than the sound of letter combinations. I love Names! My name means the enlightened one and is greek. One of my daughters name’s means morning dew or dew from God and is Hebrew. One of my other daughter’s name means bird and is also Hebrew. My son’s name is Muslim and means the creator, and my wife’s name means heavenly flower as she was born in Hawaii. As soon as I learned what my wife’s name meant, I knew I wanted to marry her. Fascinated by names.
Ah, how sweet.
I have a granddaughter named Leilani, finallyseekinghelp . Love those heavenly flowers!
Mine is very simple. It’s my family nickname for Kathryn. I was named for my paternal grandmother. I’m enjoying reading the meanings behind the names. They are very creative. Thanks for starting this Tinker-Belle.
Beautiful! I'm really enjoying learning the meanings, too. Such a creative group!
Yes, thank you Tinker-Belle! Who is also my favorite character in Peter Pan! So much fun reading all the responses, I haven’t shared my news from today yet.
Well?!? News? We are here...ears open. Have a beautiful day.
I’ve had txcg152 since around 9th grade & it stand for Texas Cowgirl & the 152 is the street my boyfriend lived on that I & my friends were always at his house hanging out & having parties almost every night! 🤠
I love it! These are great.
😁Fun ID txcg!
I chose bxrmom because, until last year I have been a boxer dog mom (and foster mom when I was involved in boxer rescue). My email address is even bxrmom Of course, I love all dogs. I currently have my 9-year old (10 in November) Pit/Lab Caddie who was only supposed to stay with me temporarily until my sister and her boyfriend at the time, could find a place that would allow them to find a place to allow them to have a dog after moving back from Oklahoma to Wisconsin. That never happened and Caddie has been with me ever since
Jessie
I love all dogs, too. Great name. A lady I used to work with would refer to me, her, and another friend as "the golden girls" because we all had goldens!! It was funny.
Love that one too Tinker-Belle
Me too!
Oh how I love Golden’s; I’ve never had one but think they are such beautiful dogs with great personalities. We have an 2-year-old Aussie and a 10 year-old-15 lb. mutt <3
They are the best. Aussies are beautiful, too. We had a sweet mutt, too. He looked like a giant golden retriever except he was black with a white spot on his chest! He was our gentle giant....or happy buffalo!
Im sure he/she found a loving home bxrmom. We have an 11 mos old Corso who rescued me last June! She’s a good girl. My wife named her Gina, my daughter named her Royal so my daughter calls her Gina Royal. It’s cute..
Thanks for clarifying, Belle. I thought Tinker-Belle was your super-cute dog’s name. My ID is not only self-evident. It’s my latest attempt at truly beginning to heal the internal warfare I’ve been battling for the last 17 years. I’ve been fighting alone, other than my not so consistent relationship with God and church.
Suppressing these feelings for that many years has been sooo tiring. Finallyseekinghelp allowed me to begin to finally get some rest. Thanks for your question. With this community’s help, healing for me, has begun.
Sweet Rob. One of my stations in Farm education is the chickens. It’s the kid’s favorite spot to go on the farm tour.
It’s amazing what kids DON’T know about food production animals. And honestly; it’s scary what ADULTS don’t know!!! I’m convinced people don’t want to know where their food comes from, and that is scary to me!
On FB it is my real name--all of them-- to differentiate myself from a few others with my same first and last name.. Otherwise my user name, itasara, which is my Hebrew name. I believe it means, "she is a princess."
Love it
Love it
My favorite book as a young person was called "Mrs. Mike" by Benedict and Nancy Freedman. When I married Mike, I became a Mrs. Mike.
Perfect.
Sweet!
hairbrain was our first email id back when AOL was just beginning. My husband was a hairdresser & a little crazy too, hence the name hairbrain. Over the years he became in instructor & eventually we owned a beauty school so he worked up to hairbrain3 & since I was also a hairdresser & instructor I just went with hairbrain4.
Love it!
Tinker- Belle, it's Fancy1959. What a fun and awesome post. I might be a day late but I wanted to let everyone know what my user ID represented. One of the very first horses I raised was the prettiest leopard filly Appaloosa you ever saw. I had the mara at my parents home in southern Indiana and they called me at work and let me know that my mare had foaled this was on a Thursday. The next day Friday evening I drove up to their farm to check out my mare and foal. As I walked across the field and got close to my mare on the far side of her was her foal nursing. My dad walked beside me as I went to The Far Side of the horse in the first look I got at my new filly took my breath away. The first words that came out of my mouth was"Boy, she's fancy!" Well guess what it's stuck in I named her fancy. We had her for 27 years! We raised three Colts out of her and none were ever as fancy as she was! The term fancy became a family password that we use over and over again. So naturally when I was thinking of a username it popped into my head to put fancy first and the year of my birth second. That's the story of my username. To this day I remember dad and I walking around that mare and seeing my foal for the first time. That was over 30 years ago but it's like it happened in my brain yesterday. It's such a great memory because Dad and I did it together and I loved my dad so much!
What a beautiful memory. And a beautiful story.
That was beautiful..
