mollyringleYou. Yes, you. How and why did you select your username, if you don't mind sharing? (Ignore if patently obvious; e.g., "Uh, it's my actual name.")
I'll get the ball rolling.
LemonLye is the proper way to write my nick, but LJ doesn't allow capital letters. This was one of my first chat nicknames, chosen about six years ago when I was way, way into The Cure. Source: their song "The Caterpillar"; lyric: "Dust my lemon lies with powder pink and sweet..." I originally was LemonLie, but later tweaked the spelling, just to be cute. It has proved a handy username at lots of websites, since generally nobody has ever registered it before.
Isn't that fascinating? OK, your turn.

Date: 2002-12-04 06:07 am (UTC)Ages ago, when I first started using the internet, I signed up at Delphi Forums. I tried some usernames but they'd all been taken. I put in "Rachel" and it said I couldn't have that, but gave me a selection of rachelxxxx so I just picked one at random. I use it here too so I don't have to remember lots of logins.
What a dull story.
