:p Just wondering why you picked the forum name or email name you have?

Mine is cause I love Hibiscus flowers and mantis, they both make me smile and at a hard time in my life I saw a hibiscus (my first) and it brightened my day an made me smile. Whats your story? :p The email name is incorporating the hibiscus and mantis, hence Himantis!

When I was on another forum about eight years ago, a guy wrote me a note and signed himself "Ralph in Prescott." and in my reply I signed myself "Phil in Yuma." We ended up writing every day until he died in a car accident this April, and I always signed myself with that name.

 
The name I was given when I was born is Jim. In my ethnicity, we use the same Roman alphabets to write although they have different pronunciations in accordance to our language (like how the French also uses the Roman alphabets but has a different sound). Therefore, "Ntsees" is how I would write my name because it sounds the closest to "Jim". In regards to my email, it's pretty simple - just my initials and my year of birth (jv1983).

Another thing, I would have picked the name "Jim" instead of "Ntsees" but I figured that there probably was another "Jim" already.

I go by Katnapper because I love cats, and I love taking naps (and with my cats too, hehe)!! ;) :D Also it's a kind of tribute to the kitties who I've had in my life that are no longer with us (they are forever peacefully napping, I like to think :wub: ). My email is also katnapper@gmail.

 
Every form I post on is under the name Opivy hehe. If you searched the name, and my old location (before peter told me it was not acceptable here) You'd probably find a few other forums with me on it.

 
its my email address and no on ever has it, Also my other alias is heroofhyrule, if that doesnt work d17oug18 works everytime, no matter where it is. lol

 
Pretty obvious play bass guitar and was my first online alias because I couldn't think of anything else.

 
Ismart was a joke between me and my sister. She used to make fun of me when i would say or do something stupid. So i would answer her back and say, i'm not stupid ismart! :lol: After all these years we still joke about it at sunday dinner. :)

 
I became an ordained minister online about eight years ago so I could perform a few weddings for friends. Hence, Rev, short for reverend, which a bunch of people call me now. The MDN are my initials. And there you go, revmdn.

Well my wife setup my e-mail address and so I used part of it for the forum here, but befor that it was my name on a game, and then befor that it was part of a name I used on games in the past which was ArkBlueElf, but then I think it also started as a joke.
