Too funny
I was looking into making a terrarium (<--worlds nerdiest word?)
around the time I joined EDS. Sundews are cute little carnivorous plants that come in different shapes, colors, and sizes. I quite like them

Well, I went the wildly creative route of using my first name, and the first letter of my last name!
Mary
P.S. The sundews are really cool looking! |

Mary, you are so original. I'm no better. Yen is short for my first name Yen Lan. So much for being creative. |

Awwww, those Sundews are so pretty--- you rock Sundew!
My name isn't all that creative either guys, don't worry! Manslayerliz is a relic, leftover from the days when I raised man-hunting to an art form, lol!! These days I'm a boring married woman, but I still use manslayerliz out of habit and laziness--- much to my husband's chagrin! ("Manslayerliz?? That's what you still call yourself???? What's wrong with my name for you, Princess of Powder????" "It's a nice name baby, but it usually doesn't fit....") |

I just picked the first name that came to mind when faced with the "username" question. I have multiple personae "out there" depending on the type of forum I'm regged at. Skincare/beauty sites are "Anya"...the rest are totally different  |

My name ParisTroika comes from my roller derby name (same thing only with a space: Paris Troika).
I skate for a team called the Iron Curtain...so we all have names like mine. Paris Troika is based off of perestroika, which was the economic restructuring program in the mid-1980s before the fall of the Soviet Union.
I answer to either Paris or Annie...haha (Annie is my real name). |

I know mine is dorky, but it's easy to remember, and easy to type. First name is Nadine, and at the time I first used this login, I was into jazz music.
Those sundews are indeed gorgeous!
I think Freya is such a cool name! |

The goddess of war and wisdom has always been my favorite among the pantheon of Greek mythology but someone beat me to it Hence, the 123 suffix.
I have yet to attain wisdom, 'though I aspire to it...
My real name, Virginia is just too boring  |
