With all the members on the forum, I wondered how we all came about choosing our user names, mine is easy Ecky Thump.....Ecky is for my name Eric and Thump is for the noise when I fell of a ladder.
How did you come about choosing yours?
well, everybody just bout know me henry is my first name..

Easy. My daughter's nick name is Splodge so I was going to be Splodgesdad but was ratted when I registered.

So it was your Mother and Father who chose your user name!:D
Santiago
19-09-2011, 22:08
I became Santiago on the old forum because it was the only place I had ever been to on mainland Spain - actually Santiago de Compostella. It is also a place of pilgrimage and that is how I feel about visiting Tenerife so it was an obvious choice (to me anyway!).
Easy. My daughter's nick name is Splodge so I was going to be Splodgesdad but was ratted when I registered.
Mine is also easy, Carol is my name, I wont say where the 55 came from.;)

There never was a Willy or a Sam...(Herman's Hermits) ;)
I was observer on another forum a long time ago, already claimed when I joined this one, so shortened it to obs, and here I am.
cainaries
19-09-2011, 22:26
Just a subtle spelling of Canaries in my case. You won't be surprised to hear that when I tried to register www.canaries.com it had already gone. So we just made a teensy adjustment and ended up with cainaries. We haven't got the website now though to save you the trouble of looking!
Iīm just unimaginative middle name is Jane! so Suej:ashamed:
Chicharrera
19-09-2011, 22:42
Chicharrera person refered to when from Tenerife,but a real Chicharrer@ is officially from S/C.......so my reason for the name here on the forum!!!!
Iīm just unimaginative middle name is Jane! so Suej:ashamed:

Just lazy ...... :sorry:
Mine was supposed to stand for Canary Islands Mortgages as I had set up TenerifeMortgageBroker and the idea was to expand into the other islands, however I eventually binned the idea and instead just expanded to encompass all of Spain with a few different mortgage websites. So I guess my username is a tad redundant!
Mine was easy to too, where i was living in a Sunny Spot,just shortened it

Right, are you sitting comfortably?
It had been 2 weeks since we lost our greyhound and although we weren't going to have another dog we decided just 'to look' at a rescue site called Greyhound Gap. We saw this lovely dog called Goldie. To be able to read about her we had to register and so I chose the username Goforgold and eventually we did and we had her 5 wonderful years until this June.

Mine is just an abbreviation of my name and what my friends call me. :dontknow:
This is a Name Ive been called many times, and I answer to it.
A few on Tenerife know Me by it now too.
; not all Forum Members either.
and my user name is also boring, my name is mark brookes so marbro, and i can't really remember why i chose the 8? it stemmed from the fact that i used marbro but i changed my e-mail address and something went wrong so couldn't use it again and couldn't get back on the forum , so tenerife smurf sat down with me in redarrows shop one afternoon and tried patiently to try and get me back on the forum (bless him) and marbro8 was born;)

9Plus said we should ask the ladies where his name originates from, so maybe we should ask your wife where the "8" stems from, or are you hiding something from us?:D
Mine was the name I got off a nice policeman in Tenerife, he used to call me pablo1 and another lad pablo2... Not sure if I should have been the happier being number 1 or not ! :-)

Lol I actually played bass on freebird thank god! Did you ever see us play toto?
If it's the band I'm thinking of then I think yes, years ago doing a Beatles set at O'callaghans when Gary was looting it. I didn't catch the full set but enjoyed what I saw. Obviously there was more than one band covering that stuff but the time sounds about right.

My name was influenced by those kind people at Camelot a few years ago , The name stuck could have been worse they may have thought Jackpot was more fitting .:flatcap:

Mine is obvious, Linda from Leamington Spa.
When younger I always wanted lovely blonde hair as I had mousey brown hair so I was nicknamed blondie probably just to bug me .
