How did you come up with your username?

Just stretched the first letters of my name, so JGT became jaygeetee. I had tried for jegeetee but the mods didn't let me in.

I opened an Id in Yahoo to play bridge and when user id was asked I gave 'tasuray' which means in Bengali that who play cards.

i wanted dilin (my name), but it had already been taken over at hotmail in '99. So i swapped the L with a 1 - now it reads "the one" or "the win".

Well added a two(2) to my name to every attempt i made to get in.

Now stuck with the name wish i could change it.

I always need a "turbo boost" to my neurons! Partly inspired by my 1.9 TDI Octy too.

ghpk · 27th November 2010, 03:41

mine one was created as i was sick of multiple attempts everywhere, so came up with a idea of my biz name + my name abbreviation combo.

No hanky no panky, simple name - to let the world know by my name - so my user ID is my Name (which is quite interesting and reflects the inbuilt heritance of power & intelligence too)

BulZire · 2nd December 2010, 18:19

I own a Bullet and a Dzire. So it is a simple Maths of adding first 3 letters of bullet and last 4 letters of Dzire. That is Bullet + Dzire = BulZire. Somthing creative .

jalex77 · 2nd December 2010, 19:04

My real name is Joseph Alex and 77 is the year I was born. Also my code with the F.M.S.C.I in the years I did Rallying was jalex. So jalex77 it is.

My userid reflects what we all TBHPians love to do. Car Watching. On a lighter note - what it would have been if i typed s instead of t while registration.

My name is Devkaran Baisla so dkb is from the name. I love the Bond movies and the image associated with the Iconic British agent James Bond so 007 is his number and that's how my id dkb007 came into existence. Thought some how i can connect to the special agent

No prizes for guessing that's my name.

'Sam' - as my friends call me. 'b'- born in Bombay (now Mumbai).

But the main reason is i wanted it to be short yet specific and yes, something that was not already taken..

Cheers!
