ID names and how you got there :)

[ladydeburg]

I see many fantastic ID names on here and am wondering if you  could tell us how you thought of it and what  meaning it has, if any.

This is a fun thread that I thought would be a great thread for Friday.

Mine is a combination of two of my grand children. Now I have a third one, so probably should change the name.

Lucky  its not Knucklehead, Panhead or Flathead

flathead?, thats a new one on me. shovelhead (AMF), blockhead (evolution), and the first two you mentioned, I have to see one of these flatheads. I always liked those mid 90s FXSTCs with that solid rear wheel.

[amber-eyed-girl]

I was always taunted about my eyes. Then those vampire movies came out. Where they have amber eyes. Still not fun. Then a friend of mine said hey, never seen any others like them (in a good way) so I decided to just go with it as a good thing rather than a bad one.

I used to try to keep them out of the sun, so they wouldn't change and spook people. I don' t worry about that anymore.

Softtail......Joanie is this what you ride?

I have a '92 Bagger

[mainecoon1]

I am the fur mummy of a Maine Coon as I only have one I decided on my forum  id as mainecoon1.

My other id which is my seller id I used my sisters name and added 111 as she has a husband and 2 sons.

So both ids are easy to remember.

[the_great_she_elephant]

I started my ebay life under my own name, Deborah with some numbers attached (can't remember which or why now)  This ID came about on another forum when we were discussing age and seniority. It turned out I was the oldest member so I declared myself matriarch of the forum and assumed the title The Great She Elephant -  the title given to the Queen Mother and power behind the throne in Swaziland. I thought it had a certain gravitas, so I adopted it here too.

Softtail...... Joanie is this what you ride?

Don't ride much anymore. I had my eye on the FXSTC Softail Custom since 1992. I ended up caving in and getting a Sportster and lost that to the Franklin County sheriff.

Something about that bike, (FXSTC) the way the rear fender flares out, the solid wheel, the perfect rake on the front forks, the bike just looks good all the way around, and sounds good as well. I'm not sure what a Bagger is, don't remember seeing that in the showrooms.

I used to ride in the snow rain, ect. But anymore, even in good riding weather, I get sunburn, windburn, frightened on the curves. I rode my dad's bike (a softail standard) Not quite the looks of a softail Custom but close enough, alittle last summer, I rode it more than he did. His hip is getting to the point where he can't ride anymore.

I don't know how many times I've been asked exactly what Katy did ... only I know 😉

I started off looking for a katydid id ... and it just moved on from there.
