onebraincell You and me both!

Because I am!

After watching the Olivia Hussey version of Juliet in the Zeffirelli film I remember sobbing all the way home. The name sticks.

Because I like them

The first name which came to mind was my sisters name and that’s been my username ever since it’s been great fun over the years to meet up with folks and find out their real name. Thank you to those people whom I see every week on a zoom meet up. You keep me going.

Oh and by the way I had a really good night last night watching the tv awards where my favourite program Line of Duty got full recognition as did the actors on it.

Well done to all they were all very good.

I am a nan and l’m tatty.

Because I spent many years Linedancing in my boots.

I have mentioned before, I have two nephews William and Robert, hence Billybob

Curlywhirly

It rhymes with part of my name and was my nickname at primary school - and it has nothing to do with my hair - which is straight!

Are you me? One of my names at school was curlywhirly because of my surname and my hair is straight.

Is your name of Irish origin?

Hi Shinamae
Yes I also found it interesting and was curious regarding other GN's usernames so I started a thread on it about a year ago. Since then of course we've had many new members.
Mine is the Turkish word for parsley to reflect on my interest in cooking and the many years spent in Turkey, my DH from there.
I will enjoy reading about the new usernames.

My parents first names were Frances and Bernard. Franbern keeps them both in my mind.

Mine is simply my initials L S

I grew up with hens, lots of them.

Because I'm a writer and was always scribbling down notes and ideas as they came to me. Not so much these days though: my 'scribbling' is electronic, tapped into my phone.

Early career in law, later admin in coroners office, married to policeman, mother to four very good boys ?

Now THAT is clever!! ????????

I wish I could tell you all............but best that I don't

Mine is a way of describing my hair - sort of red going blonde with bits of silver in it. My version of strawberry blonde!

I must have done something stupid because I kept trying "clever" names and couldn't get anything accepted. Finally did my own and got in so thought I'd quit while ahead !

Had a wonderful Italian holiday, set in a lemon grove?

I live on the edge of one of the most beautiful forests in the country. I also have a Forest Flame plant in my garden.

I adopted my name when I was 'feeling my age' which must have been at least ten years ago. So no it's even more apposite.

NOW it's even more apposite.

I especially love your idea Franbern
I wish I had thought of that with my parents’ names.

Abbreviation of my middle name and a random letter- there was meant to be a full stop before last letter but I forgot! Think I now sound like an Egyptian pharaoh which wasn’t the original intention
