How did you choose your username

Mine is a childhood nickname and the name of our county's major town!! Nothing clever at all.

I love chocolate and puddings. This name has no connection to my real name and is easy to remember

Mine is because I do?

because i love cats and my birth year..

Mine is the name of a previous cat and I added on the "girl" to show which sex I am.

From my last job before retiring.

As I've aged along with Gransnet, mine is fairly obvious.

Mentioned in another thread, Polly Perkins is a song I remember enjoying
As a child. But I’m neither pretty nor little and don’t come from Paddington green. And no connection with my real name.

I'm a twin, simples.

I was in agony , from an undiagnosed broken ankle bone , when I chose mine ,

its what my Granny called me when I was wee

The first two letters of GDs names.

From where I live. Hiding in plain sight amongst 41,000 people!

I wanted to post a response quickly and just used my name plus 10. I was thinking of Ben10 which was DGSs latest preoccupation. I might change to something more interesting one day if I ever flounce and then return in disguise as so many seem to.

I'm from Glasgow, but have lived in Australia for 29 years.

I choose mine because I was so upset at children being used as pawns in divorces cases, killed in wars, abused, excisiting in poverty. In My dream the granny's of the world unite and

Save them all!! Sorry posted too soon.

But I had a technical hitch and decided on probably my favourite actresses.

I was too tired or lazy to think up a new one - it was the same one I’d used for ages on a forum for carers of people with dementia. Nuff sed really.

Grandparents home in Wales, of which there will be hundreds and consequently, probably thousands of grandchildren who could have chosen it!

Because I do ?

I chose mine quickly and without much thought, when I was a new member. My nephew used to call me Norts, when he was a toddler (he’s 42 now).

I wish I had been a bit more creative because I love some of the other user names on GN - QuaintIrene, Dragonfly, BlueBelle and Sark are all lovely and more artistic/interesting than Norts ...

Because at one time I was called (quite unfairly!) the Christmas Grump.
