**Qadgop The Mercotan** has been a long-time favorite of mine, even though I still automatically look for that **u** after the capital Q! 😃

There are so many of you with unique names that it would take me all night long to list them all.

I haven’t seen **Tequila Mockingbird** in ages, but her name always made me smile.

I too like the “play on words” such as **Shirley Ujest** and **Sue Dunhym**.

Honey;

I like you on bagels, english muffins, and toast  
Butter and honey, is quite yummy,  
While bagels and lox,  
filled with snot, is not.

Honey…

I am very sad that **Don’t poke the bear, Dad!** isn’t around more. That was my all-time favorite.

**Eats Crayons** always makes me giggle. And so does **That Guy With Pants.** I’d never noticed **Ferret Herder** until this thread but that’s a hoot, too.

There are many other good ones, but (a) I’ve listed them before and (b) my brain is too addled today to recall them.

I just changed my username this weekend; got my change-of-name sig up there in my previous post. 🙂 Finally thought of something good for a username. I have pet ferrets so I do know what it’s like, plus it describes my life sometimes - all the frustration of herding cats, with twice the hyperactivity.

I also like Rue DeDay, although I just realized a few weeks ago that he was, in fact, a man. I read it as a pun, but it stuck in my head as Rue, which makes me think of Rue McLanahan (sp?), so I pictured him as a grey-haired woman.

Sorry, Rue.

I also like Shabadu. (hey, Joey Jo-Jo!)

I always liked **Mmmmm…forbiden doughnut** (please forgive the spelling) and **Green Bean**

**fireunderpantsboobs** is pretty cool too.

I have quite a few personal faves. Have to mention **TheLoadedDog** and **RueDeDay**. Also **Cougarfang** and the likes of **Mirrored Indigo Shadows** , and **Thylacine**. Loads of others – I usually pop up, say “What a cool name!” at th’ time, then vanish off again.

Oh yeah. I also like “Yapping Poodle,” but I do feel like smacking the poster every time I see the name. Heh heh. I’m intrigued that someone would deliberately choose a name that is practically synonymous with extreme annoyance. Gutsy, and interesting. So it’s up there on my favorites list.

**CrankyAsAnOldMan** noticed me!! I’ve hit the big top! Not bad for a guy who posts randomly eh? For what its worth, I read mostly. I get on the board everyday and see what people have to say, but I dont really have much to talk about. lol. Thanks to everyone who enjoyed my seldom-seen name!

I have a bunch of favorite names, but never really got around to compiling a list of them all… here’s some I remember off the top of my head:

**TheLoadedDog  
Zappo  
Broken Doll  
pezpunk  
ResIpsaLoquiitor  
SkipMagic  
thinksnow  
Mullinator  
Silver Fire**

And I know some people have said in the past that they like my name… I don’t know, though. It’s unique, is all I can say about it.

Am I the only one who thinks that **Czarcasm** is a hilarious username?
