LOL... Good luck. The ISP I signed up for (way back when) wanted a screen name and suggested I use things like my initials or a childhood nickname. I did that. I used both. Now the nickname I had as a child was ONLY used in the family and to this day, nobody esp. my parent can tell me why they used to call me that. That's all I will say.
ADDITION:
OK, I thought about it. I guess since I brought it up I ought to be man enough to stand up and not be a coward. We are amongst friends here, right?
Well my immediate family and one Aunt used to call me Boobies. Like I said, I don't know why and it seems that nobody can recall why they used it. So my whole screen name was mwsboobies. It was available. Imagine that. But also like I said, when I was out in the internet public... you can imagine the questions and comments I got.

I had that same problem with my very first screen name. I am a worship leader and I teach dance. Since my name is Elayne and I dance for G-d's glory, I chose the name EGloryDancer. Several months later I recieved a report that my name had been hijacked and it was appearing as "InHerGloryDancer" on some very intreresting sites. Needless to say I got rid of that name quicky.

I chose the name Krystal because it is the name I use when I write. It's my pseudonym!

Oh, thank you for reconsidering! Yes, we're all family here and nobody will make you regret sharing that (or I'll make them regret making you regret it)! hahahahahahah
P.S. I agree that Gamemastr1 is a better choice of screen name, even back then!

While I was working as a flight instructor/charter pilot (yes, I have a license for multi-engine aircraft, as well), my Virginia license plate was LadyCFII. So, I use that for my display name, too.  That is cool, but if I remember correctly, was it not LadyCFI before? For some reason I thought you only one I for the longest time.
