Probably can't figure mine out now can ya?
Was talking with some guys yesterday about this. Mine is a descriptor of me. Old, but still going at it. Hopefully till the day I die. Or maybe when I die.

I use another name when I talk to people face to face.

My current avatar is simply a very hot your woman I would love to meet someday

Ladies, this thread's also for you. Not asking for Big Secrets but curious about how/why you chose your screen names.

You mean the ladies don't use their real names either?!?

I'm a douche...pretty straightforward

I hate coming up with screen names because creative people excel at it, I am not one of those people. However, I tried to think of something completely opposite to what I was joining the hobby for.

I don't wear cardigans, I'm not old, and I don't wear slippers. Like I said, creativity is not a strong suit. DATY though.......

As for my avatar....look up trogdor the burninator.
I just didn't know what to use and went after a one time popular Motorola phone. Razr, but I am crazy as fuck, hence the screen name - Krazr5 (5, I would call it to be a lucky number)...

I was sitting at work and decided to look up the top porn stars. Lynn was very common. Not sure how Laura popped in my head. Maybe didn't see too many "L" names, but the double L rolls nicely off the tongue

I have always been fascinated by Fractals

Also it was classier than my other choice: White Urp...

When I was registering for eccie, I was sitting at my kitchen table on my iPad trying to think up a name. I looked up and saw the pizza box in front of me.

Voila! Little Caesar

When I 1st discovered the hobby I used the email that I had originally set up for fraternity work but that had devolved to the email I used to sign up for things that I didn't care about and considered my spam email address. After I discovered the hobby, and put some thought into it... I figured something like SAE1856 (not my former name, just an example) was too specific and too easily searchable. I thought about it some more... I thought of a couple of puns... DerrickSteele? too pornstarish... MightyBigamy.... sounds impressive, right? but what if someone thinks I'm a big girl named Amy? I thought some more... my hands didn't get as much use as they once did watching porn... perhaps they grew dusty. (plus it's reasonably generic such that if one looked it up on google there are plenty of entries before one discovers a monger.)

Totally don't mean any wrong, this is just the first thing that popped into mind with what you said.
