Story behind your screen name

[Laurel Hill]

Why did you choose your screen name? What does it mean?

"Laurel Hill" is not my name. It's a place. The most beautiful, peaceful, tranquil place in the world. The kind of place you'd love to run and hide. You can barely hear the wind blow or the birds chirp. It's my favorite place in the world. Just thinking of it brings me peace and happiness when I'm down.

 

[mistress bono]

i wanted bonobabe but that was taken so i came up with mistress bono. not really a story but there you go.

 

[katiebu21]

I registered in a hurry one day and didn't have time to think of a clever name. My dad calls me Katieb, it's been his nickname for me forever. It's just my name Katie and the B is the first initial of our last name. Then I just added u21 to the end of it.

 

[Babydoll]

hi laurel hill!

babydoll is my childhood nickname, given to me by the mom of a very special friend of mine back then... i mustve been 4 or 5, years ago!

 

[~BrightestStar~]

It's a secret

 

[Babydoll]

[Thora]

Some friends and I were drunk one night about 5 years ago, and decided to find Nordic goddess sounding names for each other. I picked Thora because I loved how it sounded. That's been my nickname ever since.

SEB are my initials, and I put those there because I assumed that Thora might have been taken. I was wrong, but now I'm stuck with the extra SEB, since you can't change your username (as far as I know).

For those that don't know me yet, I go by Thora around here!

[vivalapopedge]

There's an @U2 comic about the top ten U2 moments in the cartoonist's life, and one of them was the hottness of POP Edge, and the comic panel for that said "VIVA LA POP EDGE!" I thought POP Edge was really cool, so I took it

 

[sweetie]

[Dahlia]

"Dahlia" is actually a song of a Japanese Visual Kei Band (dunno is someone here knows what Visual Kei is ) called X Japan. I love the song so I made its title my name

 

[kafrun]

Mine is just one of my nicknames.

kafrun = Katherine

 

[Bonochick]

I had somebody else set up my first email account for me, and he gave me the username of Menomineechick, since Menominee is my hometown. I didn't really like it though, so I swapped Menominee with Bono and signed up for a new account as Bonochick.

 

[Babydoll]

[Souly]

Mine is just one of my nicknames.

kafrun = Katherine

My relatives all call me that cos they can't pronouce the 'th' in the middle.

Souly is shortened from soul nation.

 

[Bono's Doll]

Bono's Doll--well that's me cause Bono can bend me, shape me, any way he wants to.

 

[Liesje]

[u2shamrock]

U2 cause well, yeah. And then Shamrock cause they're Irish and I have Irish in me(not from Ireland but have ancestors who were) and the shamrock is a symbol for Ireland....not really original, but hey

 

[tiny dancer]

I always wanted to be a dancer, but I am only 5 foot "2.

 

[U2MaNaIcWeIdO]

I wanted to go with U2 Manaic Weirdo....since I'm such a Manaic for U2....and I'm a bit weird too.....but I forgot the R.....so then it became U2 Manaic Weido. Finally I just capitlized every other letter after U2.....so that's how I came up with U2MaNaIcWeIdO.

 

[partygirl43]

Well---Partygirl is one of my favorite songs because it reminds me of my High School days and 43 is a re-occuring number in my life--its every where.

PartyGirl43

[Russty Cat]

Well long story short my real name is unusal and was always being missprounenced when I was in school. So friends of mine started calling me Cat. When I was 16 I cut most of my hair off and dyed what was left a bright orangeish color. It looked alot like rust. My mom kept saying I had rusty hair and somewhere along the lines I became Russty Cat. Most people just call me Russty now.

 

[youtooellen]

mine's pretty self explanatory..

whenever someone has a conversation with me or in general and I hear the words "you too" I automatically assume U2..
and so I just tossed it about with my name to get the ever-so-fancy 'youtooellen'. haha, I know difficult

 

[~BrightestStar~]

if Brighteststar is here, my q for her was, where is her avatar from?? bono looks in it!

It's one of the avatars available on the site. The picture looks familar, but I would have to search around to see if I have it anywhere.


PS. I love your sig
