Have you ever wondered where some people get their usernames? There can be any combination of reasons and I thought I would give it a go here so we can get to know a little more about each other. I'll start. My name is Sharon but for some reason I have always like the name Simone. It sounds kind of secretive and mysterious. How about you? How did you come up with your username?

My name is... well, it's an old name that doesn't mean anything. I use Anja Poulsen all over the net but I don't use Rollo anywhere else. I joined a million years ago, I don't remember why I used it.

@simone10 I have started using it online in 2011 when I started to write for Squidoo. I asked to my husband what username to use and he told me, as in family we all call you "ducky", for all the others you should be a LadyDuck.

Mylot was the first site that I used a username at, so I chose Asylum in recognition of what a lunatic I am at times. Since using other sites I adopted Koalemos, which is far more appropriate because Koalemos was the Greek God of Stupidity.
