Whats behind the name?

[Cassiopeia]

I've always been an astronomy buff and Cassiopeia is the name of a constellation. It sounds beautiful to me. I used the name for one of my cats years ago also; called her Cassie. :-D I use the name SavannahStar on most other message boards I'm on, none of which relate to swimming pools! :-D

 

[tphaggerty]

Lets see. AOL screen name for about 15 years - its the only thing I can remember, right dear? (d*mn, what was her name now)

 

[landmark218]

Nothing exciting here. Just a combination of my last and first name with some numbers thrown in to make it unique.

 

[Northcountry]

Cool Thread!

Lets see...live way up north in Ontario...had recently watched the movie Northcountry when joining another forum and needed a name...it seem to fit. Northcountry I became and use it on most forums I lurk on. This forum is the best though...It's has a great community and everyone is so helpful.

Mine just refers to my first new car, a 97 Cobra Mustang. It had a 4.6L engine.

I have since sold it and now drive a 03 Focus hatchback which is something not nearly as much fun but way more economical.

I use this handle or a variant on everything. Cobra46 sounds more cool than Lamefocus.

 

[DeckSgt]

At work, my title is "Deck Foreman, Asst. Crane Operator", but my bearing (brought on by military and law enforcement experience) earned me the nickname of "Deck Sgt.". It just stuck.

[launboy]

I guess Ill bite... I came up with my name when I was 9 because I was a boy and mowed lawns, and was very interested in OPE. I used it as my first AIM name and have used it for various forums and such over the years.

[austinsmom01]

I lost my identity after the birth of my son. Everyone now only knows me as Austin's Mom. That is how I introduce myself because everyone knows him. He has more friends than I do. I don't mind it though.

Re:

I gained a lot of respect for CarlD. while reading posts over at PF (but couldn't join), so when this site came online I decided to construct a similar username, hence TomU (first name and first initial of last name).

Sorry I'm late to this party, but I am very honored and humbled. I hate to tell you this but I kinda just tossed something up when I needed a name--using my first name and last initial is VERY unusual for me--I generally have much cleverer "handles" on other places. It's not my most creative name.

Still, I'm glad that my advice and experience has been a help to so many people. I love when someone says: "Wow! It worked! My pool is now GREAT!" That's the best reward.

TFP is the ONLY website I know, still in existence, that follows the same "No-BS" approach pioneered at PoolForum. I consider it a high complement. As many of you know, PoolForum has been unable to accept new members for at least two seasons. I, and my fellow monitors are not able to control that. So I welcome TFP as the only place new members and pool owners can go to get the same kind and quality of advice and philosophy pioneered at PoolForum.

I don't explore TFP enough. I guess I should.

 

[eggman]

Late here too .. if this thread hadn't been bumped I'd have never seen it.

Got my name back in my stoner-hippy days during a hard boiled egg eating contest at work. It didn't hurt that my last name starts with the word egg.

 

[AV8TOR]

I flew Helicopters with the National Guard and owned a plane for 12 years. They called us Aviator’s so AV8TOR is just a play on the word.

 

[Hotrod30]

The name I use comes from my hot rod; 1930 ford.
