**Cartooniverse** and **Vivalostwages** have already been mentioned, but I have to second them.

I also am partial to **Shirley Ujest** because I adore her posts and I hear Robert Stack every time I read her name! 😃

**StupidSmartAgain** , was interesting, but not descriptive, because he wasn’t smart.

Others I like, **Obsidian Flutterby, MyFootsZZZ, drainbead, SwimmingRiddles, oldscratch, ssskuggiii** and the late **poohpah chalupa**.

Actually I read a topic you posted in once about how people got their usernames and I think the accidental factor is why I like it so darn much. That just makes it funnier!!

I am on the Heineken so maybe this won’t make sense later but it looks okay so far I think!

Thanks. 😃  
I like **Quasimodem** –very clever–and I wonder if **Aesiron** and **nineiron** are siblings.

I can’t believe I forgot **Kn\*ckers**. One of the best names ever. She used to insert all kinds of stuff where that asterisk was.

I miss the heck out of her.

**NoClueBoy** is one of the more better creative names, IMHO.

Other names in randomness that always catch my eye:

**glee, Slykyn, fenris, tubadiva,** and a gaggle of others that escape me right now.

Oh, and the name \*\*Cecil Adams \*\* just totally rocks! 🙂

I’ve always been partial to **Gatopascado** myself.

A new one from last month that caught my eye: **BraveNewSquirle**

I like **The Wrong Girl** because our names have similar origins.

**Righteous Granny, MeanOldLady, SatOnCookie, EddyTeddyFredy**. Reading the name **Happyscrappyheropup** always makes me want to go out and pet something.

Aww, thanks **Beech**. Love ya.

My personal favourite is **fizzygoodmakefeelnice** , because it’s a line from “Black Books”, one of the best and most underappreciated comedies in recent years, and also a brilliant description of Alka Seltser.

**zzzzzWHATWHATzzzz** is one of the more clever names, I think, in quite awhile.

I know the backstory! I know! I know!

I’ll tell if you bribe me enough. OK, I’ll give you all one hint. It involves someone named “Smith”.
