I love photographing squirrels - in fact they're the main reason I got into wildlife photography. So I used to call them squizzels, then squizzes, then it just stuck with squizza :D

So my name actually means squirrel!

My surname is Pybus. Pronounce Pie-Bus. And in year 2 or 3 people started calling me Pieface and it stuck.
 
I own and ride one !!!
 
trev4 emmmm, cant seem to remember how that came about :thinking:

Trevor ;)
 
remember song Mr.Boombastic by Shaggy ? ...thats me ;D
 
Bet you cant guess mine...............:lol:




I have one eye (really I am blind in the left)
 
It's the name of the close I live in and it's not usually taken as a username, thus saving me from thinking up a different name that has probably already been taken.
 
I :love: Tigers especially cute cubs.. hence babytiger
 
Mine speaks for itself although for many years, it refers to my previous life.
I've used this nick on IRC since 97 and it's just stuck with me ever since.

Mine's a tribute to the wee fellas this whole malarky is dependent on.
 
Mine comes from my surname, Bigerstaff :)
 
Used to own them and loved driving them, then I wised up:cuckoo:
 
a very old email address i used to have for years and years... however i wish i had not chosen it for my name here!!
 
Same as the OP. Christian name and first letter of surname. Very boring, but easy to remember, and I use the same one on most forums I visit.
 
I've thought about being creative and witty with my usernames but can never be bothered so just use my own name. If Mike Jackson is taken (can never understand what the appeal of the name is) I use swbjackson because i used to drive a short wheel base land rover.
 
Guess ;)
 
Long story :suspect:
 
Manchester United + Paul = Redpaul

Been using mine since 1996 when I was a member of a Manchester United mailing list. Mailing lists were very popular before internet forums were invented.

Paul
 
Anticipating others reactions.

"Who the **** is that plonker?"
 
First name and initial of the surame of my creative alter-ego.
 
Mine comes from back in the 70s..from a track from a band.."Foreigner" called "Starrider" which was my favourite track (still is,check it out ;))..
I also used this as my cb handle as a truck driver as well..:D
 
From when I was a kid there were 2 John's me and a freind who was chubby shall we say, I wasn't so I was Little John he was Big John.

The name returned to me when I got a job and the boss was also called John, this time I was the taller of the 2 but it wasn't acceptable to call the boss Little John so I was Little John all over again.
