Just for fun - What does your user name mean?

[cypher1]

I grew up reading comics, particularly X-Men and their various teams. However, the character Cypher was from New Mutants, which I never really got into. Growing up I thought the character was lame, as he was a mutant with the abilities to basically understand and communicate with all kinds of languages and decipher codes. But I always thought the name sounded cool.

While I just added the "1" at the end, sometimes I do "01" for other logins in reference to binary code. My friends always thought the name originally referenced Cypher from the Matrix, but that was more of a coincidence.

[COB_Speicher]

Mine comes from where I was located when I found this site. COB (contingency operating base Speicher is located near Tikrit, Iraq where I was working as a civilian contractor at the time. The base was returned to Iraq in 2011. I have gotten a lot of good and useful advice from this forum, thanks to all of you here!

[Snydley]

My nickname in high school- it's a twist on my maiden name. Reminds me of when I was young and FREE (I had quite a bit of fun in high school)

[sweetlady2k]

Mine is an old pet name from a former boyfriend, I used it for several screen names that i set up while we were together since it included the often required numeral as well.

[Eagle]

Eagle - my favorite bird and it's an easy login to remember. The eagle is majestic and powerful.

It reminds me of Isaiah 40:31:

"But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."

[Milly]

Milly isn't actually my name. It isn't Emily, Amelia, or Camilla either (although eventually we hope to name a baby girl Amelia and call her Milly). Milly is a somewhat random childhood nickname that took on its own persona in College.

One of my friends who knew me as a kid went with me to college introduced me as Milly to a group that later became my core social group and best friends. As a result, that specific group of college friends know me as Milly. For a few years, Milly was like my show name. "Milly" was the confident, leader, funny, clever person that could conquer the world because that is how I felt with those friends.

So when I sign as "Milly" on my blog, that is the powerful version of myself.

[LivingAlmostLarge]

need I explain? I back when I signed on i was living what I considered almost large. 10 years later I've honestly surpassed insanely. Not quite what I expected. Haven't changed much but certain things are a little bit more and that's where the large is

[Gailete]

My autistic son has a habit for bestowing nicknames on people that he really likes or dislikes. People he is neutral about don't get one. So somewhere along the line he started calling me GaileteBob. I Got rid of the bob part and started using the Gailete as I believe there is no one else named Gailete in the world. At least I haven't run into them so it made it easier to use as a screen name than my real name. of course, he informed me that I spelled it wrong and I should have spelled it Gailette. I'm not that good of speller and he is an excellent speller, but at this point the Gailete with one T sticks.

[NicolasR]

my nickname is just my friend's name and first letter of his surname
