Lacunae Matata--Ever discover a SDMB member with a name similar to yours

I was just reading a thread and came across poster name Lacunae Matata and I was thinking is this my long lost brother/sister? I was going to IM them but alas they don’t have that turned on. So Lacunae can you tell me where your name came from?

There are several posters I get mixed up because they have simliar names. Anyone else here have a poster with a similar posting name as theirs?

There’s an elendil76, I see, but I haven’t had any contact with him or her. Might not even be active anymore.

Do I ever. There’s Don’t ask, Shirley Not, NotMe, WhyNot, and a passel of others. As far as I know, none of us are related. I just heard yesterday, my brother has signed on, but I don’t know his moniker. Maybe, next week, I’ll find out. Stay tuned.

I know it’s not terribly similar, but I don’t know how many times I’ve caught one of Lamar Mundane’s posts out of the corner of my eye and thought “I don’t remember posting in that thread…”

MaybeNott.

There’s a gwendee but I don’t know if her name is Gwen[dolen] D. like mine or not. And pendgwen. :slight_smile:

One time, my mom had some leftovers she was making for her and Pop, a leftover baked potato, tuna and cheese. She put it all together and presented it to him: “Here you go, it’s a tuna potahto.”

There’s a Telperion. I get very confused when I see him (I think) posting.

There are a couple other Rhythm-somethings out there, and a Devil or two, but I tend not to run into them.

The odd thing is that for some reason I tend to associate the OP’s mystique of kinship with Skald the Rhymer.

There’s SaintCad. I think Ellis Peters at one point noted that the name Cadfael came from an obscure Welsh saint who was born Cadfael, but was called Saint Cad.

Yup. There’s a Freudian_Slip who always trips me up. There’s also a Freudian Push Up Bra who’s been around even before I had my name. I haven’t seen her around lately, though.

There used to be a Dr. Scarlett or something like that, but she (?) went away.

Now I have a new doppelgänger in Serenata67.

Yeah, that guy Jamaika a jamaikaiake always confuses me.

I get confused by that too. For the longest time I thought you were the same person–but **Freudian Slip **is male if I remember correctly and you are female–is that correct?

Yes, I am definitely female. It’s easy to remember because females have slits.

Right…thanks for reminding me :smiley: Now I doubt I will ever mix you up!

Just ask Mac Tec.

I’m pretty sure that’s Mac Tech.

Poster’s names which go great together!

There was an EngineNerd who posted here a few time, but I haven’t seen him in a long while.

The advanced search page, when I type my name into the Username field, suggests “Sagesgirl”.

Rather a bummer that she left before I even ever got here. :frowning:

I always do a double-take when I see a posting by Mama Tiger. No other Zappa-like names on the board, that I’ve seen.

There’s a DigitalC somewhere around here.
