How did you decide on your user name?

I've noticed lots of cool user names and I'm curious as to how people came up with them. I chose Fishoholic because I'm addicted to the fish in this hobby.

I just used my boyfriend's name because mine was already used on this forum. So if "Roderick's" posts seem kind of feminine, it is because they are! I wanted to come up with a cool fish handle, but number of posts count so I am unsure if this is a good idea. Is there any way we can transfer our number of posts to a new user name?

Its the nickname my grandmother used for me, its rarely taken, and I don't have to remember a million usernames.

Yes. You can pm me or any other mod with your requested new name.

We used to have an aquatic frog as our department mascot, and being a bunch of geologists, we called it Geofrog. I liked the name so I use it now.

It was my first Dachshunds name after the Taco Bell commercial...where the little Chihuahua says "Por Favor...drop the Chaloupa" I don't know...it just stuck, and no one else ever chooses it (no worries there) so I use it on all the sites.
