Meaning of your myLot screenname?

I've seen some pretty interesting names around here and I often wonder what the meaning behind it is. For me, my handle comes from a Decemberists song (The Infanta) which I adore to pieces. For anyone interested, that stanza is: And as she sits upon her place Her innocence laid on her face From all atop the parapets blow a multitude of coronets Melodies rhapsodical and fair And all our hearts afire The sky ablaze with cannon fire We all raise our voices to the air To the air

Hey Boricua! Lots of Puerto Ricans around here lately! Maybe when I have a kid or two I'll make the screenname "DominicanMom" as an ID! Hehe.

I like yours, especially since I love saying "woo" or "woot". Lol. Someone once told me it sounds like a sound a pet would make though =/ but I still like it. Haha!

I love owls because of the mystical attributes they have. They are associated with healing, feminine energies, wisdom and they are able to twist their heads around to see things from different 'perspectives.' Owls are also the logo for my writing company pespectives on healthy living...and they fit with my slogan...fly high with your own wings. So there you have it. Works for me!

Oh Melody, I just saw that you were the one to start this discussion.. Ha,ha, remember what I said about going into another country and hearing your name in their language? In my discussion on saying Y'shua instead of Jesus. Now you know mine..(Oh, and I love it)

I chose my screenname "Danishcanadian" because it reflects my combined heritages. What's also interesting is that it also matches my chosen avatar, which is a picture of my two flags joined together. I wanted the world to know who I am, without giving out too much information.

I like that! Very cool, so I'm guessing one of your parents is from Denmark and the other from Canada eh? I used to have an old name like that that combined where I was born (Dominican Republic) and where I live now (Miami). It was Domiami. It wasn't quite as obvious as yours though, lol. I like it. :)

Hello Melody!(",) I am using simply my very own name, just part of my name actually. I like the meaning of my name. The girl's name Lani \l(a)-ni\ is pronounced LAH-nee. It is of Hawaiian origin, and its meaning is "sky" or "heaven". Really nice, isn't it? I like your avatar! Is it a box of milk?(",) Take care and God bless!(",)

I like your name! I have always loved another (but close) version of it, Layne (Lay-nee). The meaning is pretty nifty as well! And yes! My avatar is a dancing milk...lol. It's from the Blur's video, coffee and TV! :)

My screen name here in myLot is TomBiz. This is just a very simple word for me and also for all of us here. This is a combination of my name Tom and of course the shortened term for business which is biz. It may be simple but this name connotes my long dream of having my own business, be it offline or online. I really wish I be given the chance to make my dreams of having my own business. Sooner or later, I will really fly and soar into my own sky and fulfill all of my dreams in life. I think this is also the extended meaning of this name Tombiz. This symbolized me and my life. This is me.

Nice, I like that! TomBiz has a nice ring to it, it would even be a good name for a business or a store. My dad has his own business and we all help out, though I would never like to have my own - so much work! heheh. Good luck with your dreams buddy! :)

Nice name you have there. Mine is just two French words. Votre means your and Amie means friend. So my user name is simply "your friend".

My screen name is a combination of my nickname, my birth date and my family name put together in one. Actually, I want to change it, is there a way of doing that without creating a new account?
• United States
21 May 07
Aww no, I don't think there's a way of changing your name without deleting your account or creating a new one. But you should consider keeping it, it's different. I like! :)

I was actually wondering about where you got your screenname. Yours is very interesting and really nice. I like it. Mine on the other hand just came from the name of one of my favorite perfumes. I love perfumes so I figured why not use one as my screenname so it's easy for me to remember.
• United States
11 Jun 07
Aw thanks! I'm also a big fan of perfumes, never thought to name myself after one of them...hmm. Maybe next time! Magicnoire sounds very nice too, very french. Thanks for the reply! =)

my screen name is a combination of my husband's name (gwen) and my name (mari) and the last 4 digits are the date of our wedding. we got married, oct. 29 i have been using this id for quite sometime now. it is easier for me to remember this because i use it most of the time in almost all my accounts.

21 May 07
Ahh it seems this included the hubby's name and marriage date is quite common then! I love knowing the meaning behind names as it often lets one take a peek at what's important to the person. It's definitely a great thing to include family in the screen names, I'm sure I'll do the same when I have a family of my own. Thanks!

I hate having to come up with id's and screen names so I just went with something I really like here on mylot...country music. I'm a country music lover and proud of it!

That's an interesting point you bring up because I constantly wonder that myself. I have seen some pretty bizarre names and some boring ones as well. Mine isn't so well thought out. I actually came up with "wackeytiger" a long time ago, like when I was 12. I grew up with cats and loved them, big or little so that's where the tiger part came from. Wackey at the time kind of defined me as a person. I was a wired happy kid that was addicted to caffeine and sugar, and I was also a bit weird. Anywho, that's how I came up with my name and I just stuck with it.

My name is Adrienne and before my daughter could pronounce it properly, she would say Ayshren. So, its just kind of stuck as a nickname for me.
