Mine is my First and middle initials, my wife's first and middle initials, and my son's first and middle initials. Pretty lame huh. (Actually my wife came up with it as an e-mail address a couple of years ago, and it was easy to remember.):hammer:

My wife worked in the advertising industry and worked with the ad agency that did most of Disney's advertiising. They had a classification/categorization system based on what people liked about the company and how much. The top ratings all ended in "phile." (Like an audiophile is someone really into audio equipment.)

A Disneyphile was someone who loved anything Disney.

A Worldphile was someone who was only interested in WDW.

I'm a Worldphile.

That's why all my screen-names have to have the same password! I was getting SOOO confused! :D

:lol: :lol: yeah, most of my passwords are the same, but just in case someone happens to get my password (which i pray NEVER happens) then i throw in a few different ones just to keep safe. course, the screen names with a different password are at sites that i usually don't frequent too often, so it doesn't help too much :D hey...i try

This Sounds Familiar.

I'm SURE I did this only a few months ago, but here it is again!

WAAAAYYY back in '84 (before MANY of you were even BORN!), I was stationed at Fort Gordon, Georgia (next to Augusta, GA), for my Advanced Individual Training (AIT), for the Missouri Army National Guard (MOARNG). I met some local civilians at a local Godfather's Pizza place, after seeing an ad one of them had put up in a hobby shop at one of the nearby malls.

I created a High-Elf Fighter/Magic-User/Thief, for a 1st Edition Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (AD&D)game, & needed a name for him. Frankly, I SUCK at coming up with Fantasy names. I first thought of naming him "Groo", after the comic book of "Groo the Wanderer", but decided that would be too obvious. I saw a comic strip for a character named "Thrud the Barbarian" (imagine this-the body of Conan, the head of a child. :lol: ), & squished the 2 names together, coming up with Grud.

In '85 or '86, whenever I first got personalized license plates for my car, I got GRUD on them, & when I was in Hawaii, while on Active Duty with the Army, I had everyone (about 40-50 people!) in my Platoon calling me GRUD, & MOST of the rest of the people (another 70-100!) in the Company calling me that as well!

I've seen MY name in 2 sci-fi novels, & 2 RPG adventures. 1 was as a human brigand in the "Temple of Elemental Evil" adventure, for the 1st Ed. AD&D, while the 2nd was as a Troll in an adventure for the Middle Earth Role Playing game. I can't remember the 2 book references. :hammer:

I came up with it for my Email adress/AIM name back when I was in 7th grade... First part of MICkey...Second half, first part of my last name BAT. (A lot of my cousins actually took my idea an used BAT in their name.. ie SavvyBat)... Ever since then, MicBat has been my username for everything!

Well, something happened to hose my DisneyDad Mark user name, so when I came back I decided to use a character name. Jiminy Cricket and the variations of it that I usually use were unavailable, so I decided to go for another character that is sort of conscience-oriented, who does what's right, even if it's not easy. Bagheera was the first one that I came up with. (Probably because there was a picture of him on my Disney calendar the day that I was looking for a user name.) :)
