Your fascinating choice of pseudonames

I am what I am...

What a brilliant made-up word -it describes us exactly,
love it pseudonames

Anyone familiar with Oor Wullie and the Broons will recognise me even if you can't see my pinny and my bun.

My daughter had twins for her first pregnancy. I had so looked forward to her having a baby that two at once was TwiceasNice.

I was "not" a granny when I first joined ... I am now!

I'm originally from Kendal but moved to Surrey 10 years ago, therefore I moved darnsarf!

So many names were already taken,and had a lovely holiday next to a lemon grove in Spain.?

I'm exactly what it says. My OH never has any cash on him so I'm the money boss and also treasurer of a football forum.

Grannysue Welcome
I am very honoured that you like my psuedoname.

Joining GN coincided with the birth of my first grandchild.
As he was born during the summer
I have the wonderful memory of sitting in the shade under our old Cherry tree cuddling my little bundle of joy.

Mawbroon you grace our kitchen wall
I have a Broons calendar every year +since--time immemorial

Mine is a combination of the first parts of my 3 children's names. ☺️

Forgive me
but from one Cherry to another
Is your name Cherryhatrick from The football world?
Bournemouth FC nicknamed the Cherries
They had the fastest hat trick ever scored.
Or as in the author and Playboy William Donaldson's 3rd wife
Cherry Hattrick?
Or am I way off
and just being a bit thick

Mine is the name of a fishing fly - one of my favourites, but I haven't had much opportunity to use it this year.

I always wondered where your name came from, greyduster!

I am, grannysue, and thank you for noticing my name!

When I joined I wanted to be Maggie May. It was one of the pet names my dad used for me, frequently accompanied by a hearty rendition of that very inappropriate song about me not walking down Lime Street any more and loving sailors . Apparently that name was taken, so I just extended it a little!

Good thread! So many mysteries solved!

I chose Imperfect because I feel okay with life not being perfect ... The number 27 is special to me. And I love that some Gnetters shorten it to Imp - I think that suits me as well!

Cherrytree59 Nothing quite so convoluted; I'm classed as a geriatric

Lovely thread. Mine is a nickname used by someone important in my life a long time ago. Not a lot of people know that

Cherryhatrick
so I was being a bit thick!!
Makes sense when you actually say it out loud

We had a joint email account which we used for the grandchildren, as we needed an email to join I just used NanaandGrampy :-)

My son lives in Sweden and they distinguish between mother's mother - "mormor" and father's mother- "farmor". 15 was the number of the house I grew up in.

Some things without which life would be poorer, tea and cake!!

I had been on holiday to Petra not long before I joined.

I am what I am..

I'm glad you like my name grannysue. I always thought it was a bit uninspired really! At the time I joined GN I was working shifts, often into the early hours of the morning and at least once a week an overnighter all alone in an office building. I actually signed up during a (quiet) night shift and had to think of a name quickly - being very sleep-deprived at the time it was the first thing that came to mind.

It's a bit of a misnomer now- I gave up shift work three years ago and have become more of a dormouse. Maybe I should change my name

Mine ( like Swanny )is a name I was called by someone special when I was a child.
