Nickname's
Don't know if this thread has been done before. How did you come to choose your particular nickname? Some names are self explanatory, others less so.
I came by this name due to a state of blind panic and my dog lol. When I was new to computers/internet, I decided to join my first forum. Whilst registering I was asked for a nickname. For some totally unknow reason I got it into my head that I was under a time limit to register. I looked at the dog, who was a pup in those days, we kept calling him a Bonny Boy. That's how I came by my nickname...How about you?

Re: Nickname's
Sometimes I wish I'd chosen a different one. People keep thinking I'm a fellah.

I've had that problem too - people called me Will. Willow is actually a girl's name though. Elsewhere I'm Rosie but that was a name someone else chose for me so I prefer to use Willow on most forums.

Willow is a lovely name for a girl, could never imagine a bloke with that name...guess we all see things in different degrees of light.
