Thanks, **Gravity**. Anyone wanna do mine (screen name, that is)? ---

I was thinking along the lines of **Grasslander** for myself - but I’m sure you guys can do better… ---

Verrain doesn’t really lend itself well to this game but let’s see if anyone can think of something. ---

**Verrain** , this is a bit of a stretch, but how about **Oirsun**? ---

Could you explain? And **Arden** I was waiting for that. So glad you obliged. 😃 ---

Sorry, I thought that explaining my own cheesy joke would be geeky to the extreme, so I just took a chance. All I meant was this: “ver” in Spanish means “to see” “oir” means “to hear” so I figured **Ver-rain** goes with **Oir-sun**. I didn’t mean to be so obscure. :o (sorry!) ---

We went on a mini-steam train together at a Wild Animal park this weekend & sat breathing in the scent of coal smoke with delight whenever the wind brought it to us. Definitely made for each other. 😃 ---

Well, If the name wasn’t already taken, My soulmate would have to be Serendipity 😉 But it is taken, and She and Simetra really belong together 🙂 Meh, I’m not really in the soulmate mood at the moment. ☹ ---

**fierra** , it sounds like you are one of the chosen few who have found a good match. You know, many are coaled, but few are chosen. 😃 ---

My man’s name would have to be… **Loudernhell** or perhaps **Didntsaynuthin** or maybe **Wasntalkintoya** [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/invent-screen-names-for-the-dopers-soulmates/78985.md?page=8)
