well I did not know we were to be more deviously funny for user names or I would have come up with something much more original

I like Enola Straight and My other ride is your mother…that one is exceptional!

This has always been my all time favorite…and knowing the origin of it makes it even more wonderful.

Thank you. I’m a long time Andrew Lloyd Webber fan (shut up!), and his and Jim Steinman’s musical Whistle Down the Wind has a song called Annie Christmas. Since my middle name is Anne, and I was born on December 25th, it was a natural.

I love **Tequila Mockingbird**

Page 3 and no one has mentioned **Hypnagogic Jerk**? FIle that one under “Wish I’d Thought of It.”

+1 for **Typo Knig**.

**Hopeful Crow** intrigues me.

I know eh. I thought I was being super original.

That’s what my brain sees too and I picture Chewbacca having a pint.

Thanks! It’s not what I started with - I just used my first name and last initial at first - but fortunately the mods let me change it not long afterwards.

Some favorites of mine:

**Vinyl Turnip  
Condescending Robot  
Thudlow Boink  
Skald the Rhymer  
Qadgop the Mercotan  
Typo Knig  
Exapno Mapcase  
What Exit?  
Spiny Norman  
WOOKINPANUB  
Freudian Slit  
Earl Snake-Hips Tucker**

All amuse me or have good mental associations.

::😊::  
Nope, no relation. I just like his kids’ names, and my own kids’ “pre-release” names were Dweezil and Moon Unit, so when it came time to pick out a screen name - and Abby Normal was taken, well…

Of course this led my husband nearly choosing the name Papa Zappa when he signed on - instead, he chose **Typo Knig** which I see was mentioned up-thread (there was a former poster named Typo Mna also).

Ah - that reminds me of one of my faves:  
“ **mirror image egami rorrim** ” (or something like that).
