Mine was Roachman when I started here. I breed roaches for lizard food and for fun. Tom just seemed better for a tortoise forum where people are all on a first name basis.

Mine is just my name with the letter "o" being a zero. I think it was the only thing available at one point several years ago when I created a username for something else. Since then I am just so used to typing it that I use it everywhere.

Funny, I assumed you were a proud democrat named Leroy.

I thought your name was Leroy and you were left handed. Maybe a baseball player that pitches or plays first. Or an artist.

My name is Steve but I got my user name from the second redfoot that I acquired. It came from a pet store and was an adult that they had in a gerbil cage on the floor. Claimed to have had it for over a year, I would often visit the store to see oscar. They would have a chunk of lettuce in the cage now and then. They wanted over 200 dollars for him and I couldn't pay that much, one day they said they would take 140 so I bought him. Well I have had oscar for over two years now and he? (she) has laid eggs and I now have two hatchlings from the eggs that she had laid. Maybe I should change her name to Oscaretta.

I had belonged to a couple of YAHOOgroups listservs but this was the first "forum" that I joined. I had no idea how it worked and I signed in with my email address as my user name. After belonging for a few days I realized that no one else used their email address so I asked Josh to remove the @pacbell.com from it. Emysemys is easy to type and I now use it for almost everything I do online.

when i was a kid, and I first discovered aol aim chatrooms, i needed a username. I had a pet turtle named Spike. And I thought he was the best. So I wanted my name to be "spikeisthebest". However that was taken. I wasn't going to give up. So I chose spikethebest, and that was free. So ever since then, for almost every username on the web, I choose spikethebest, to keep things simple, and well more importantly, because spike IS still the best! :)

Mine is easy. It's me first Initial last name. It helps keep things simple...

I also use it as my email address. Also, I think it looks a little more professional when I put it on my resume =)
