What the heck does your username mean???

[unkadug]

When DD was 7, she took a Hawaiian dance class and their song was Pineapple Princess. We tried using the nickname for her, but it didn't stick so I took it for myself! In retrospect, I suppose I should have used Pineapple Queen since I'm married and the song goes "...someday we're gonna marry and you'll be my Pineapple Queen." Also, I find it slightly annoying that the second s in princess doesn't fit on the line under my avatar, and queen would fit better!

You can always ask @wdwmagic to change your name in the name change thread. It is kind of odd to have that one dangling "s"

Mine is because I like doors where you push instead of pull.

Wouldn't that depend upon if you are coming or going?

 

[PUSH]

Wouldn't that depend upon if you are coming or going?

Not necessarily. Some places have a push and a pull for both ways.

So I have heard.

I miss that thing. To think, my brother told me years ago that disney had a talking trash can in tomorrowland when I was living in colorado. When my girlfriend (now wife) went together in 2008, I checked every single trash can there....no one told me that Push also walked. The next trip I get to finally see him. What an awesome, and very cult like attraction. I tell friends about past Disney compared to present...they think I'm crazy!

 

[DinoInstitute]

I wanted to have a neat name that was kind of clever and themed to A disney reference, but I couldn't really think of much. So, I went with the Dino Institute, so I was just going to name it Institute or something like that. But, then I realized there's also an imagination institute. So, I put Dino and Imagineation together to get ID! But nowadays most people just abbreviate it IDI.
And to avoid any confusion about which institute I actually am a fan of, I just about always keep my avatar something related to that, but change it for special occasions.

That would make more sense, but I tend to lack in the sense department.

 

[skishlee]

I joined a Harry Potter website in 2002 and we weren’t allowed to use our real names. I ended up settling on the ‘Ashlee’. When one of the friends I had made learnt that I was from Australia, she started talking about Skippy the Bush Kangaroo (star of a 60’s TV show) and combined ‘Skippy’ and ‘Ashlee’ to form ‘skishlee’.

I’ve used it ever since. If I sign up at a website and skishlee is already taken, I know it’s me. I hated having to add numbers to previous usernames.

Simply put, I am a fireman and my shield number is 17..

[Minthorne]

It's a street name in my home town and also a surname. I've always used it as my online name on message boards and online games like World if Warcraft. I also used it as my name in Dungeons and Dragons way back in the day. I am the king of the Nerds.

 

[BuddyThomas]

Mine is my name.

Sorry bud...I just had to!

EDIT: sorry I just saw this is a redundant post but delete is not an option for some reason.

 

[RmeDad]

My son was in the ARMY for 20 years and I am his DAD....RME....DAD! He is RMEDOC, guess what he did?

 

[GeoDonJac34]

Mine is the first three letters of my name, George. The first three letters of my wife's name, Donna, and the number 34 is for my all time favorite baseball player, Kirby Puckett.

 

[Tiggerish]

Mine's ironic.

Only if one speaks French.

My nephews call me unkadug when they were little. (My name is Doug and I'm their Uncle)

The son of very close friends of ours (you know, too close to have the kids to call you Mr & Mrs, but too well-raised to allow their kids to call adults by their first names, so you're "uncle" and "aunt" even though you're not related) dealt with "Uncle Bob" by calling MyBob "Ickaboo". So if you ever see the user name Ickaboo around here, you'll know who he is.

Nothing too mysterious about my user name. I have been a Star Wars fan since I saw A New Hope in theaters in 1977 at the ripe old age of 6. Master Yoda is my favorite character.

Up until I joined this forum I always used the name Macleod online. I decided to change things up a bit when I joined WDWMagic and entered the name Master Yoda fully expecting it to kick back as taken. I was fairly shocked that it was available.

My dad took me and my bro to see Star Wars in the theater when I was 14.

Bet I can guess where the MacLeod name came from, too.

When I first joined, many moons ago, I felt my name would do. Hi everyone!!!

Hi, Debbie!!! I remember you from when I first joined up here. I was just a lurker then. Hope you're back to stay.

I watched Skippy on tv when I was a kid, and I can sing you the theme song. In fact, that song is going to be stuck in my head for hours and hours...

 

[Tiggerish]

My username is a mishmash of a few things:

Tigger is my favorite character;
Many, many variations of Tigger* were already spoken for when I joined;
When we were little, my brother could not pronounce "sister" so he called me "Ish";
I am quite ticklish.

Therefore, I am Tiggerish.

Guess!

What's that @Grumpyernmost?
