How You Choose Your Login Name

little d Enthusiast

I just thought that this would be fun. How did you choose your login name.

I chose my login name because couldn't think of anything and thought to use my nickname that my coworkers gave me because we have another Donna who is a nurse and is taller 5'8" and maybe 60lbs heavier than me. I am 4'11" and at the time 150lbs so I got little d and she got big D

Guhlia Rising Star

Mine is my last name, modified... Guhl... Changed to Guhlia thanks to the Wedding Singer (Julia Guhlia). Not that my name is Julia... :)

SunnyDyRain Enthusiast

My nickname is an existng one I used on other sites. The first time I used it, I was depressed and felt like I ruined every one's good time. So I tried SunnyDayRain, but that was taken so I took SunnyDyRain. :)

Ursa Major Collaborator

My name is Latin for she-bear, so I chose (or I should say, Fiddle Faddle suggested) the star formation Ursa Major when I changed my login name for safety reasons (which is why I won't mention my real name, even though even people who don't know it should be able to guess). So, please don't mention it, since then this post will pop up in Google when putting in my name along with celiac, because it isn't that common.

aikiducky Apprentice

I do aikido, and I used to kinda follow my first aikido teacher around and kwak like a duckling... :lol: obviously I was a bit enthusiastic in the beginning... that was almost 8 years ago so I've kinda calmed down but then I started collecting duck toys and stuff for a while. I've stopped now because in don't really want a house full of ducks so please don't send me any! :ph34r: I still have one fluffy yellow duck that my sister gave me one Christmas though, she made a little black belt for it and a tiny little wooden sword. :)

Pauliina

wowzer Community Regular

My original name from euchre at Playsite. My stepfather thought up the name.

VegasCeliacBuckeye Collaborator

Growing up I was a HUGE John Elway fan (he played for the Denver Broncos - hence, bronco) - however, I am actually a die hard Bengals and Buckeyes fan

Bux = Bucks = short for Buckeyes

Bronco Bux

:)

I should be Bengalbux or Elwaybux since I am not a Bronco fan, but what do you do?

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I choose mine because my name is Amanda but when I worked in daycare, my toddlers used to say Manda instead of saying Amanda. I have very blue eyes, and dark hair. So I came up with Blueeyedmanda.

It describes me very well.

Kyalesyin Apprentice

I used my first name. It means 'serenity'.

TinkerbellSwt Collaborator

My name is pretty obvious, at least the first half, Tinkerbell. I am a huge Disney fan and my cats name is Tinkerbell. The Swt is short for Sweetie, my dog that I had to give away, (due to safety issues with my son) My name honors my pets!

Generic Apprentice

I changed mine also due to safety reasons, my ex-b/f was (or still is) stalking me on the internet. Mine used to be my name with my old companies name.

Now it is a generic name-litteraly.

Lisa Mentor

My turn,

When my first was born, she became my "sweet baby goose", with number 2, I had geese. Hubby started to call me Momma Goose. There ya have it.

little-c Contributor

My name is an reference to celiac disease. I went through three months of testing for various issues when they ultimately found celiac. At the same time I was also going through repeat mammograms and a breast cancer biopsy (testing for the 'big C'.) Had no clue they would ultimately find celiac, so I coined it 'little c.' So far, no 'big C' in my list of maladies!

aikiducky Apprentice

We have a "little d" and a "little c", cute. :) I wonder if there's a "little a" and a "little b" lurking as well who just haven't posted anything? :)

Little c, I like the motto in your sig... :)

Pauliina

not going to rename myself little p... :lol: :lol: :lol:

I used my first name. It means 'serenity'.

How do you pronounce it?

I have two boys. That means "lack of serenity".

Piccolo Apprentice

I just had to ad my reply here. I am a musician that plays the flute and piccolo thus the name. :rolleyes:

Lack of Serenity? Hmmm... that might be a good one when we have kids....

Proper pronounciation is kyal-es-yin. The first y is almost silent, heaviest emphasis goes on the es and the yin is short to the point of almost sounding like 'yun'.

There was a point in my life where I really hated that name.

tarnalberry Community Regular

mine is a concatenation of my names, in much the same way that a unix admin would assign a login. :P

Kaycee Collaborator

My name is Catherine and as you can see, it starts with a C. But my mum who is in denial about her ever possibly having any coeliac symptoms, at times can't remember whether my name begins with a C or a K, so in one letter from my mother I get Katherine on the envelope and in the letter itself, I get my name written as Catherine. This supposedly is written on the same day! I don't know what gives, but she did Christian me! So in recognition of this I go with Kaycee. I love my mother dearly and wouldn't have it any different.

Cathy

hathor Contributor

Hathor was the ancient Egyptian goddess of motherhood, alcohol & war (never quite sure of the proper order :lol: ) I always liked that combination. I'm a big Egyptophile. My daughter is actually an Egyptology major, which I now tell myself I should have had!

LoveBeingATwin Enthusiast

being an idential twin is the best thing in the world. :)

psawyer Proficient

Mine is based on the same idea as Tiffany's; I just have a much shorter name than she does. It's my first initial followed by my surname. Obviously, I'm not terribly worried about somebody guessing my complete name. I used it as an ID on computers long before the internet. If you google it, you will get buried by hits about a retired history professor in England. No relation.

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.
