We all have a unique identity in form of nickname on forums and online communities
Some people have weird ones, while some have interesting stories behind it.
Why do not you share your thoughts behind your nicknames when you selected it.
i will flag off the procedings with myself :
nickname : medpal
during the initial phase of my touch with internet i started to use yahoo especially mail as many of my friends shifted to usa and only communication affordabel at that time was email.
then i saw a few more services of yahoo which i needed to explore but revealing my real identity i thought may be dangerous.
so i thought immediately of a nick and made this one with medical being my profession i took med, and i was looking to make pals (friends)
so thus i joined med + pal and got my nick medpal.
now whats your story.
