    Not much imagination in my case I suppose! The trouble is I think of you all by your user names .... [​IMG]

    Because of my initials stamped on my tools at work, the name sort of stuck.

    Hornbeam: That makes 2 of us! :D

    Liz - I think of people by their user names too, and their avatars - sends me into a right muddle when people change them, I tend to regard them then as being slightly schitzophrenic!

    I belonged to a horse news group and one year we all met up, It was just impossiblefor me to put names to faces or characters for that matter as people seemed to be so different in the flesh.........ummm this is getting a bit deep now!

    Oh and getting the right gendre to user names, BIG topic here.

    I have so many screen names across the boards!

    michaelmasdaisy was because when I signed up I just planted some that morning!

    On other boards I have
    dids - because I know a guy whose SN is Didaskalos but we always call him dids!
    Diana - the huntress
    Deborah - old testament warrior queen
    Delila - well, you all know that, I'm sure!
    daisy - beacause when I signed up I couldn't be bothered to write michaelmasdaisy
    flaglady - because that's what I do in church
    ezra - because I was running out of ideas
    gardengirl - now I wonder why!

    But my favourite is
    MissConStru - because someone once accused me of misconstruing what he had said so I created a sock puppet so I could get back at him! And I sign my posts "Miss Connie Struthers"!!
