What about when someone makes a nickname of your

[wildhorses]

Poll question: What about when someone makes a nickname of your

Username? How do you feel about it?

[Guava Jelly]

1. I guess it depends on the context Wildhorseys, I mean

If some where to call some one MissHoneybutt or something that may be wierd
:)

[wildhorses]

3. well, when you post pics of that paticular part of your anatomy

what else can one expect:P and I only give nicknames to people I am fond...

[Guava Jelly]

5. so do i horseys

:)
or is it wildhorseyButt :rofl:

[Deja Q]

27. What if I posted mine?

:spray:

[MissHoneychurch]

32. Is it my fault

that I have a great butt??? :shrug:


:rofl:

[Guava Jelly]

38. We sure thank you for sharing it!!

:)
feel free anytime :hi:

[billyskank]

2. I guess it depends on who does it

whether they love me, and I love them. :hi:

[wildhorses]

4. true enough...

context is very important :hi:

[miss_american_pie]

6. billyskank calls me a yummy pastry

What's not to love about that? :hi:

[billyskank]

11. In truth I doubt your pastriness

but you're definitely yummy. :loveya:

[miss_american_pie]

30. Well

I have been called a tart more than once. :D :hi:

[billyskank]

33. LOL!

I don't believe that is fair. :hug:

[BarenakedLady]

7. I dunno

I'll let you know when it happens.

[Guava Jelly]

8. I call you bodypartlady :)

since i don't believe you are anything more then two eyes, a mouth, an arm, and two feet.

[BarenakedLady]

20. It's true

Sadly that is all there is to me. :rofl:

[billyskank]

22. All I have seen so far is an eye

Is there more? :D

[In_The_Wind]

9. *sigh*

what's in a name :shrug: anyway ??? although wildhorses would be a rather cute nickname :loveya: :hi:

[billyskank]

10. Joanipants!

:D

:loveya:

[In_The_Wind]

13. mr. skank

It's nice to see ya! :loveya:

[wildhorses]

91. Hiya Joani baby....

:loveya:


and I am so glad that I came up with the wildhorses...I have had more fun with it!!


and you are right a rose by any other name would smell as sweet as you:loveya:


:hug::hi:

[FoxOnTheRun]

12. I was called Miss Foxy and I'm not female

so it's not funny

[hfojvt]

58. I suppose you also are not

Sweet. ;-)

[buddhamama]

14. it would depend on the context

once and in while someone will call me 'mama', nothing derogatory or offensive in that.

[billyskank]

15. I was wondering actually

what an acceptable shortening of 'buddhamama' would be. :hi:

[buddhamama]

18. i have begun to refer

to NewWaveChick1981 as ReallyHotChick (for obvious reasons). I asked her if it were o.k. and she gave me her approval.

[billyskank]

19. She was okay with that, huh?

Quelle surprise! :D

[buddhamama]

21. heehee

Forrest will occasionally call me "little mama" because of my fondness for the Elvis song "Little Sister". it's either that, or because i am short. :shrug:

[billyskank]

23. Short

and very beautiful :loveya:

[buddhamama]

31. thank you, sweetie

you've made me blush. :loveya: :hug:

[Mutley]

16. billyskank calls me mutleyface.

And ZombyWoof called me mutleynoodle the other day. :D

Other than that, it's usually just mutley or muts. :hi:

I like nicknames, as long as they aren't mean.

[Zomby Woof]

72. Heya mutleyriffic!

:hi:

[LeftyMom]

17. Well, I can only think of one DUer who has

and he can call me any silly thing he wants. Cuteness hath privileges.

[Ptah]

24. I voted Love it!

I like a nickname someone made for me.

Cutie-Patootie-Ptah

[Deja Q]

25. Has anybody called you 'Spit'?

:wow:

[Ptah]

26. Not yet. Maybe tomorrow.

[bridgit]

28. there are times when i'd rather get my tits stuck in a wringer then a...

context = depends on the context x(

[Deja Q]

29. OW!

[bridgit]

34. Oy!

[TOhioLiberal]

35. As long as it's with affection,

you can call me whatever you want. Although it's a challenge trying to 'cute-ify' TOhioLiberal. :) It usually gets shortened to TL.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

36. My dear wildhorses.......

Since my username is quite long, I have no problem with anyone creating a nickname for it!

As long as it is done with love....and so far, that has been the case!

No-one has been mean or malicious to me, over my username, anyway.........

Good to see you today, sweetie!

:loveya: :hug:

[wildhorses]

87. Hiya CalPeg....nice of you to stop by

:loveya::hug::hi:

[qnr]

37. Heh. They can try, they won't get far. n/t

[Dangerously Amused]

62. Heh. When I see your name I hear "queener" in my head.

S'okay if I just call you "Queenie"?

[qnr]

65. heheh n/t

[qnr]

66. Actually, I've been using this online since about 1981. I once had a list

of nearly 3,000 guesses that people had made about the meaning (including, due to bad fonts at the time, G instead of Q). It was more of a game on the channels I was on, people trying to outdo each other with weird guesses.

[Oeditpus Rex]

39. Depends on what it is

I could kiss Heidi and CMW for hangin' "Oedi" on me. It's so cute.

[RevCheesehead]

47. How about "Sexy Rexy"?

:loveya:

[Oeditpus Rex]

56. That's not really 'cute'

It's just... propaganda. x(

[RevolutionaryActs]

40. I would be sad if people didn't call me "Rev" or "Rev Acts"

:cry:

[billyskank]

42. Well then it's a good job they do, Rev

:loveya:

Even though your short name is the same as RevCheesehead. Much confusion were you ever to be in the same room. :)

[RevolutionaryActs]

44. :-)

:loveya:




Hey, at least I share a name with someone who's quite awesome. :D

[billyskank]

45. That's right!

:D

[RevCheesehead]

51. Rev!!

:loveya:

[hyphenate]

41. I've heard too many

mean spirited nicks coming from mine to last a lifetime. Hydra, hyperventilate, etc. Rather have none than to have nasty ones.

[tjwmason]

43. I don't think that anybody has...

which is possibly not such a bad thing...in principle I'm fine with everything other than 2 common contractions of my first name (which will make me hate somebody instantly and permanently), but it can easily come across as over-familiarity.

[u4ic]

46. I've only got 4 characters

in my username...I'd hope it doesn't need to be shortened!

(though I don't mind at all if someone calls me dear, sweetie, honey, etc):hi:

[idgiehkt]

50. I'm so curious about it

I keep trying to sound it out or make it into words...is euphoricy a word? Sounds like an R&B group...I find it very intriguing.

[u4ic]

54. I don't know if euphoricy

is a word...but I often feel it. :D

I've had to tell a few people what my username was; most have gotten it.


Now your name is intriguing...I always try and sound out names, even if it makes no sense to. Imagine how much fun I'm having with the last 3 letters. Are they silent? :rofl:

[billyskank]

57. I'm just dumb. I was born that way

:dunce:

Actually your name doesn't work quite right when pronounced the British way. It would work better if it was 'u4ia'.

:hi:

[u4ic]

76. You're not the only one

:hug: :hi:

[billyskank]

84. Us lamebrains gotta stick together

:D

:loveya:

[Guava Jelly]

59. ufourchick :)

i dunno

[RevCheesehead]

48. I admire the creativity of DUers.

Everyone calls me Rev. Some in the KOEB call me Cheese.
And Merh calls me Pope Cheesy. :7

[Random_Australian]

49. Other: Can't tell, they always mispell it. It's "R_A" folks, not "RA".

Sheesh.

[LeftyMom]

52. Perhaps they think you an Egyptian deity.

:shrug:

[Random_Australian]

53. Sheesh, they could at least take the time to go with the latter version,

Amun-Ra. People are so cheap these days. :eyes: :) :) ;)

Guess who was born Tutankh-aten?

That's right, it was Amenophis IV! The slightly-legendary Tutankamun himself!

[ScreamingMeemie]

60. I do not! I always call you R_A!

:rofl: I'm very particular about that. :hi:

[Random_Australian]

63. You do? I suppose that I have heard RA one time too many , if

I am this jaded about it.

But honestly, I don't believe you call me ANY name very often. :)

Thanks for the thought though! :)

[sakabatou]

55. I've only called myself by nickname: 'Batou

[ScreamingMeemie]

61. Besides being called MrsG, no one, except for Zomby when he calls

my Grumpypants, has. :hi:

I tend to shorten people's usernames, so I have no real problems with it.

[Zomby Woof]

75. How about...

MrsGrumpylicious? :D

[Midlodemocrat]

64. I get called 'Midlo' all the time. Doesn't bother me at all.

However, one ex-DUer called me something I wasn't happy with, and that wasn't cool.

[ThomCat]

67. A couple of people are allowed to call me

thomkitten, and related cute nicknames. I like the cute nicknames because I like the people who use them.

But as for as nicknames in general, there's a well known quote from Bill Clinton. "It aint what they call you. It's what you answer to."

[Drum]

70. verrry true

on that Big Dog (speaking of nicknames) quote.
:hi:

[ThomCat]

71. Hiya Drum!

So, I knew we'd start seeing more in the lounge. :hi:

[Drum]

73. Friday's meet-up convinced me!

I felt very informed but was getting such a chronic headache from staying on GD/GD-P/LBN all the time.
I was missing the other 1/2 of the book: The good people on DU with many many other interests and opinions.
I'm in TX now, working, so my sched is fuller, but I promise to check in and catch up when I can.
:hi:!!

[Deep13]

68. I dunno. Suggest some and I'll tell you.

:shrug:

[wildhorses]

78. jeepers, creepers its that silly ole 13,

[Deep13]

94. Nah, guess not.

:evilgrin:

[Drum]

69. Go ahead, take yer best shot....

:grouphug:

[wildhorses]

79. Hiya drummer boy!!

[Drum]

95. D'oh!

gotme!

Like they say: call me anything ya like, just don't call me late for supper. :D

[Book Lover]

74. Other: No one has yet had the guts to do it

which is all for the best I daresay...

[wildhorses]

81. never could resist a dare....

ya silly book lovin' democrat:loveya::hi:

[Book Lover]

86. Finally!

Geez, I thought y'all were slackin. It took hours for someone to pick up the gauntlet!

:loveya:

[Left Is Write]

77. I don't think anyone ever has.

[wildhorses]

82. well, let me have the honor....

Ms Left ain't Wrong

:loveya:

[Left Is Write]

93. Thanks! I like that.

:)

[NewWaveChick1981]

80. In most cases, I consider it a compliment.

:)

[wildhorses]

83. Hiya Chicka!!

you ok with that :loveya::hi:

[buddhamama]

89. like mine-

ReallyHotChick?! :)

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

85. I don't think someone could make a nickname from my username...

my real name is different however. I go by Jackie. I don't like being called Jaclyn, however the list of nicknames I had are...

Jackie
Jax
Jack
Jack Dawg
JackieO
Crackie
Whackie
Davie
Cowboy
Freaky Girl (not meant sexually)

[wildhorses]

88. darlin' for some reason everytime I see your username

I say to myself there's Hukah...and in my mind I see one of those Hukah pipes that they smoke opium out of :shrug:

I hope you are not offended if I call you hukah...or some sort of bastardation of it depending on my level of sobriety at the time of my posting :crazy:

:loveya::hug::hi:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

90. Well, it's actually spelled hookah, but I'm not offended.

I've enjoyed the hookah myself. Hookahs are good.

[wildhorses]

92. I started spelling it that way and in my current state thought I was

sounding out hooker...:silly:

hookah is right on...

puff puff pass :freak:
