I’m a girly girl, I love pink, Cath Kidston and Disney. I really like Butterflies! Thus Lady Butterfly was born
My parents.
I post under my real name both out of nostalgia for usenet (the original federated forum) where it was customary to use your real name in Germany. And to be able to post identifying information without fear of being “discovered”.
With enough data points and a little investigation it is ridiculously easy to identify a single user. My wife demonstrated that to me a few years back when she identified some anonymous bloggers and turned out to be correct. Otherwise I might be tempted to post really private stuff under the misguided impression that I am anonymous.
I don’t even really remember to be honest x)
I knew I loved the name Rose, and wanted to try exploring it as a part of my identity in any way possible, especially when I wasn’t really using it fully as a name yet.
Turns out, many of us have done this. I have run into so many variants of “Rose Thorn”, and like 90% of the time it’s been a fellow transwoman.
I used a random username generator and somehow it generated something that perfectly applied to me

I’m an Irish jewish cephalopod.

All the more unusual ones were taken.
How I feel because I don’t understand other people…

because John doe is some unknown person, and the color gray can be like for something unknown, was my logic
then I shorten it to jgray and someone online keep calling me Jay.
so here I am
doesn’t take a genius why there’s 91 at the end.
Wishful thinking. I was planning on living in a camper traveling Europe after completing my masters degree. Ended up getting an accidental daughter instead. Proceeded to have another two children with same girl and wanted to make her my wife for life. Getting a divorce instead and can not travel because small children need their dad and i love them all.
I love nice dads! Have you found !dadforaminute@lemmy.world it’s where nice dads give fatherly advice/ hugs to a poster that needs it

Because of Sid Meyer’s Pirates on C64. I named my char Angus McAnge, a mix of my real name’s letters plus Angus (Yes, huge AC DC fan back then). It stuck with me as a user name. Over the years I’m left with mcange. ARR
Used an online fairy name generator, and I’m an ordained minister.
Its the name of my Fursona.
D&D character from a couple score years past. That old chestnut.
