What's behind the name? Screen name that is.

Spott
Explorer

I have often wondered how some of the members came up with their screen name, some are obvious :C and others are totally :?. I know that since sooo many names are already taken we have to be creative to find one that is available.

I'll start with the story of Spott, OK, not really a story but as they say a picture is worth lots-O-words. I would have use a single "t" but that was already taken (and never used).

This is our dog Spot, he is now 11 years old, he likes to camp and he loves the water.



edited to add photos
he's 12 now (2007) but doesn't always act like it.

Realtor is a trademarked word, and I could get in trouble using it in a forum like this, so I'm told. Many people pronounce it "ter" those of us in the profession want it prounced "tor" as in "real a tor". Thanks, interesting post.


If you are a REALTOR you can use it without worry. It should be all capitals however and not pronounced REAL A TOR but REAL TOR...the second A being silent.

For most emergency services instructors, teaching is passion, rather than just being a vocation. I have taught for the NYS Office of Fire Prevention and Control in thier Outreach (going to local fire stations) and their Academy based programs since 1995. Along the way I have met some of the finest individuals that you can meet. Some are now gone... The screen name is what I enjoy doing, and is also my personal tribute to them. 09.11.01 - Always remember.

Be safe,
Fire Instructor

This is the screen name we have used for years - my initials pjb married to (2) husband rlb thus pjb2rlb.

We used to use before we were married - the first 3 letters from my maiden name (DUR) and the last 3 from his name (TTY) Therefore the name would be DURTTY - but have since changed it to something not so weird.

Well, I drove semis (30 wheels not 18) hauling gas and diesel fuel for over 17 years, and still have a diesel pickup, so it still kind of works. When I post about using diesel in the winter, I DO know what I am talking about!

Mine falls into the "pretty obvious" group... First Name/Last Initial. I've never been much into nicknames/handles so I keep it simple that way.
