Because Melissa is cute, like a little bird. :D

That's why I always figured she had a name like that, Forsythia. :)

I just like the name Meryl.  I originally chose it for a Lord of the Rings board because it had an Elvish ring to it.  I combined it with Marie, my real middle name.

Great idea for a thread, forsythia!  Thanks for starting it in Chez Tremblay.  We've grown much quieter since the olden days of 2006.  ;)

David means "beloved" in Hebrew and it's my name.

Oh yeah, but I changed my name, didn't I? Atreyu is one of the characters from a book called "The Never Ending Story". It is also a movie. His name means "Son Of All" but it's not Lakota. At least I don't think it is. Maybe they made the name up.

Melissa, my Grandfather had a nickname for me too. It was sprinkhaan (sp?) I think he started calling me this just after Dad bought the trampoline and I was always out in the backyard  jumping on it! LOL

Hey, FYI, it is very easy to change your username here whenever you like:

Go to your profile, click on Account Related Settings, up at the top you can type in a new username, at the bottom type in your password, and voila, your BetterMost name has been changed.  Do it every day, if you want.

A lot of people changed their name for April Fool's Day last year (April first), it was fun and confusing.  I hope we do it again this year.

Didn't we have a thread like this way back in the day?

An ex-boyfriend thought it up for me when all my attempts at figuring out a name kept getting rejected as already taken. :P
