    Some people use their real names, some get creative [img]graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] , but to everyone, their Intercot username is unique to them. I have been curious... What does your your user name mean?

    Mine consists of a couple of things... First, Mickey is my all time favorite character. The second reason is kinda funny... I would always joke that I was going to move to Orlando and live with Mickey in his house (in Mickey's Toon Town Fair). Then people would ask me "Well what about Minnie?" and I would always reply "She has her own house!!" i.e. I made myself Mickey's Girl [img]graemlins/mickey.gif[/img]

    Mine's also a combo name. Goofy is one of my favorites (Dopey being the other one). Before she passed, my great-aunt used to call me "gal" all the time. When I registered, we were coming up on the first anniversary of her death, so she was on my mind.

    My name is a combination of my first name and the way my granddaughter says the Mad Hatter, Alice in Wonderland being her favorite movie of choice right now. Plus, I'm a hat fanatic. I made the entire family wear Mouse ears with their names when we were all there in 2000. [img]graemlins/mickey.gif[/img]

    Does mine need any explanation? The only thing that might need one is the _ in it, but that really has no meaning. It's just in there for fun!

    Well, let's see...I didn't want to use my Jedi screen name or my Star Trek one, so I decided to use my studio name. One day, in the not too distant future, I plan on opening a production studio plus other places.

    I love Snoopy! In the episode of Peanuts when Snoopy is going to get married, he takes his fiance to see Citizen Kane. He said that it was his favorite movie. Hence, citizensnoopy!

    I don't know? I guess it's almost my name, but now quite. I seem to remember that I first thought of MarkeyMouse, but didn't like that, then trying MarkerMouse, but I think it was taken.

    Thank you, Kevin!! [img]graemlins/notworthy.gif[/img]

    I have wondered what yours was since the day you joined... Guess I could have just asked.. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

    I have been collecting (heavily) Disney memorabilia (aka Disneyana) for about 20 years...

    The 'z' came into play about 9 years ago when I was on a Prodigy Disney Bulletin Board, and 's' was already taken.... I have permanently adopted the name "Dizneyana"... [img]graemlins/mickey.gif[/img]

    Mine is obvious. I took the name of one of my favorite Disney parades, which is Spectro Magic. I then inserted my first name to replace the tro in Spectro. My name rhymes with tro so SpecJoe Magic has a nice little ring to it. [img]smile.gif[/img]

    Mine is for my favorite hotel, the GF. Would have used the full name but thought it was too long to type each time logging in. DH makes fun of the name all the time. But in my defense, it was very late at night when I registered at Intercot. [img]graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

    Mine is kinda stupid actually.....I think I have told this here before. My DH and I were talking about Mickey ears one day (like the ones you get at WDW) and he just started calling them Melanie ears and well, it just evolved. [img]graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

    I really didn't know what name to sign on with so I started to look through the avatars to see what pictures were there. I was trying to find one of Thumper and had no success but Flower was there! I really figured someone would have already chosen Flower and was quite shocked when it was accepted.

    Mine is after my dog. Her name is Shelby A is for her middle name and D is for her last name.
    So many ideas, so little time. I need a part-time job to support my craft habit.

    Mine's from JII, which was my favorite attraction growing up. I wanted my member name to be tied into Figment and JII, but not in too obvious a way...so, I decided to use lyrics from "One Little Spark". When Dreamfinder initially creates Figment, he describes the little guy with lyrics that begin:

    "Two tiny wings,
    Eyes big and yellow..." (etc.)
