Just curious as to the meaning (if any) in your user name...Mine's
pretty obvious- my first name and last initial. But I would really like to know where some of these came from- food fettish, big house, owner of 3 dogs? |

But I would really like >to know where some of these came from- food fettish, big house, owner >of 3 dogs? When I was young, my dad bought me a typewriter to do school work with. To 'learn' to type, he had me type "John Zilbandy saw the quick vamp fixing the high trapeze" about a jillion times. When it came to choosing my first name online, Zilbandy just came to mind. I've been using that name since my first online name in the early 90's. To this day, that's about the only thing I can type really, really fast without making a ton of misteaks.... Oops! -- Zilbandy |

Mine is my own... although going back through history to 1679 I am not sure where 'mcquown' came from. Traditionally in Scotland the Mc (or Mac) means son of something. I've no idea what a son of a quown might be. (laughing) We like to cook, though! Jill |

Every time I tried to use kilikina, the name was taken, so I used kilikini. In any case, kilikini is closer to Christy (diminutive), which is what name I go by. kili -- http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kilikini |

It is a mythological creature of protection and aid to the point of annoyance. Half man half eagle with golden feathers. Then I became fascinated with the sequoia tree, and then used sequoia giganti. A spiritual guy from chile told me the sequoia is also a protective energy, just like my real name Michael (archangel Michael).

When I got my first online account at the high school where I worked in 1990, we were warned not to use identifiers that indicated our sex in order not to attract stalkers. I became gpuester. When we got this account at home, somehow I became gloriap. I don't use caps in my signature because 1) I'm not a good typist and it's easier not to and 2) when I sign my name, I make my "G" the same shape as lower case only larger. (Aren't you sorry you asked?) gloria p |
