How did you come up with your DIS username?

My name is Wendy (& also, coincidentally, a Disney character), &, at the time I registered, I was 31.

I'm still Wendy.

Just no longer 31.
 
r = DH's first initial
s = my first initial
z = DS's first initial
d = first initial of our last name
trvl = we were planning our first trip to Disneyland, aka : traveling

rszdtrvl
 
Parts of my first and last names and my birthday, but I was smitch425 on a sports forum long before joining here. :goodvibes
 
We were really into pin trading when I joined the Dis. I had a huge collection of Tink pins and I live in Austin. So there ya go.
 


I know this has been asked a lot (in the 14 years I've been a member) but it is fun to read everyone's replies and there seems to be some newbies here on the community board. :goodvibes I have Kitty 34 because my nickname is Kitty and my oldest son registered me back in 2000 and put the #34 after my name because it was his basketball jersey's number. Ironically that oldest son is now 34!!!! :dance3: Your turn.......:)
It is what I became 12 years ago.
 
Just use the same username I have on a lot of forums. Should have thought of something more Disney-ish, but didn't know I would stick around this long, lol.
 


When I first registered, many years ago, I lived in Oregon and had 4 kids.

Things have changed since then--we have moved and we had two more kids!

I suppose I should change my user name to FLMom2Six but I don't want to change the name I was "born" into the DIS boards with ;)
 
My username used to be my last name. I just changed the spelling.

As simple and common as it is/was, no one ever spelled it right, anyway.
 
Interesting thread! I've always wondered about some of the usernames on here.

When I first joined the DIS, I was planning a trip to WDW, and since this is a Disney forum, I figured my username should reflect my love of Disney. However, we love visiting all parts of Florida, not just WDW. Also, back when I joined, we were pretty sure that we'd end up retiring to Florida. So, I chose luvflorida for my username.

It can be confusing, though, because I know some people have thought I live in Florida. It was especially confusing when I was in Maine and posting about snow!

So, I love Florida, but I'm from Maine and now living in Arizona! Maybe I should change my username to luvFloMaAr!
 
I become crazelion because on the voltron boards all the other names was taken. Plus easy to remember and not taken most of the time.
 
I used to post as Ursula on one major Disney board and a few minor ones. When I found this board, I thought this was such a WDW-centered board that I didn't join. I'm a Disneyland person, but I've been to WDW a few times.

When I did join eventually, Ursula was taken, so I had to think of something clever about me. I collect handbags, so this just came to be. I really like it and the Husband thinks it makes me sound homeless.
 
I belong to a historical re-creation organization, and Olwyn is the name I go by in the group. GDH (Great Dark Horde) is the household I belong to in that organization. There have been times in my life when I was very active that I answered to Olwyn faster than I answered to my given name.

Why Olwyn? It was the name of my Grandfather's little sister who died of a "broken heart" 6 months after the Great Flu Epidemic in which they lost their mother. Grandpa always said I reminded him of her. And yes, her death certificate lists cause of death as "broken heart."

I read ya! Some here thought Ned Flanders. ;)
 
I'm the little girl from Song of the South. I dunno why I picked it, probably because I thought at the DisBoards I should have a Disney Name but figured all the more known characters would be taken.

Though it's pretty funny how often people think that's my real name.
