How did you come up with it?

I got the name "Hamptons" when I attended my first year of college. This one guy in particular I met during freshman orientation never remembered my name but he was amazed that I lived in The Hamptons.

My name is Raytosha. People are so fast to call me Ray-Ray, and I would always tell them thats my dad's nickname. My friend in highschool started calling me Raytay instead and it stuck. I still go by Raytay 15 years later

Mine's the name of a fictional character from The Murder of Bindy Mackenzie.

I shortened it and became BindyMac.

My name is Wynter Cherry and most of my friends just call me Cherry since its such an odd name. I wanted my screen name to rhyme because im a dork like that and was originally going to put OrdinaryCherry, but im not ordinary, so Cherry: Extraordinary! came into play. The only problem, most people pronounce extraordinary as EXTRA ordinary which was NOT what i was going for [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] . . . I might change it to Cherry: Not So Ordinary! Unless i think of something clever hmm

This is good...I'd wondered about a few...now I know. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Mine is a play on words that just happens to fit me...The RYL 1:

The Renon Yvette Lyons...there's only one (1)!

And it just so happens that I'm a real, down to earth sista...straight no chaser--The Real One! LOL

Love this thread!

Femme = Femme of center
Fox = I love feeling foxy also the last name of my alter ego (Vendetta Fox)

This is so cool!

I couldn't think of anything clever so I just used my initials TMS .[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


@lynnieluve, oooop2 & exhale1913 - Hello Sorors!

@ TMS - Hey Soror! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] I see you have your Big Chop coming up soon.

Mine is simple (AKA boring! lol)
first initial + last name + year I was born = bholmes87!!!!
I wish I was more creative with the screen name but I don't like having different scren names for different sites and this is my email too so I kept it all the same. I have the WORSE memory ever! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I'm the same way....I am Lynnieluve where ever I go....hotmail, gmail, yahoo....

Lol im soo in the same boat with you all, if my screen name isnt Cherry, Its CherryCherry lmbo and the sad part, all my passwords are the same 2 combinations. That way theres only 4 combinations of diffrent log ins lol

Well, I'm Juices-N-Berries. This comes from a quote from my FAVORITE MOVIE OF ALL TIME. Coming to America!!! It's the line in the barbershop where he says "What kinda chemicals you got in this?" "I put no chemicals, only juices and berries" "That ain't nothin but a ultraperm!" HAHAHAHAHA! I could recite the entire film by heart if I had to. Anyway, when I went natural I was like no chemicals, only juices and berries. It turns out to be quite literal. Especially when my mom says we should eat my hair cuz it smells so good. Lol.

awe this is a cute topic that i just saw today! Mar = my first name is Marlena Bar= (a little long story) I am in SGA at school and the Student Body President one day just started calling me Barbie and his rationalization was because I was always changing up something be it my look, my attitude, or my ambitions. He always said that like Barbie I had so many different Mes.. (if that makes since at all) so I told him instead of calling me Marlena Barbie, just call me Mar Bar and it stuck and now my close circle of friends call me MARBAR. The 1908 comes from me being a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.

Well mine isn't creative lol I'm natural and Tina is part of my name, Christina [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

this is a fun thread. mine is pretty obvious but i wanted a screen name specific to my hair when I joined the forum so my usual screen names wouldn't work... so I settled on jamaicanmecurly

My family is Jamaican and it's definitely a major part of my identity... and there's that American (touristy) phrase: "jamaican me crazy" so I just changed it to curly.

LOL!!!! LOVE that movie too!!!!

"This is BEAUTIFUL!!! What is is--velvet?"
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Let's keep it going!!!

Lol...I've had a few PM's asking me this.....

3c....finally! Because when first finding natural websites....I never knew there were names/types for our curls....i just knew I always had frizz n random big curls and waves.....so I exhaled when I finally knew I wasnt the only one with this hair and it was okay to embrace it

My avatar pic reminds me of a lion's mane. I thought that Simba's wife- from the Lion King was named Nyla- (it is actually Nala)

I wanted something to name my hair that represents my Leo Rising- I am actually a Pisces.
A Indian lady told me that Nyla means she who succeeds. So, my hair is one who succeeds at Coils!

NylaCoils- my hair and my alter ego.

Nyla is mean! I am NOT! Nyla is fierce. Marci (me), well, I am shy and reserved. NYLA IS NOT!

The ladies on the 35 year old thread thought my real name was Nyla! lol
Nyla is my hair's name.

People have always told that I have mysterious eyes (idk....they look regular to me) but I think they're pretty. They're dark brown so hence prettybrowneyes.....and 6/6 is my bday, I use it in everything.

My real name is ThomASInA....so I pulled out the letters and Jackson is my last name...instead of J...I went with Jay.....TasiaJay

Fun thread Lynnieluve.

My sn is completely unrelated to my hair journey. My friends and I in college got a reputation of being great dancers and one night a security guard said to us "ay yuh move like your waist made out of elastic." Thus elasstikwaistlyne.....its an island thing...LOL
