Usernames: Thoughts

[astoryandasong]

So I have been thinking for a while about changing my username, and I just kind of had a comment that made me think: Gemma, your username, while being cute six years ago, has become uncute. For real. It wasn't a bad comment or anything, not at all, I totally agreed with it. Highlander Fandom----> Panic! fandom? Do not go. In fact my username limits me, pretty much even in my own head. Therefore, I am thinking of changing.
Something non-fandom specific. I'm Flame_alchemist on buzznet and myspace, but again I don't want to be that.  So here is a question, how did y'all pick your usernames?

Chiming in a bit late. ^^;; But if you are still interested, when I choose a user name, I want something that is a good representation of me and who I am (or who I pretend to be XD).

LQ is short for Lizard Queen. No, nothing (intentionaly) to do with Jim Morrison and his whole "Lizard King" shtick. I got it off of an episode of the Simpsons: They went to Duffland, Lisa drank the water on one of the water rides and went tripping. ALL of my nearest and dearest love the Simpsons and I would always quote Lisa, so when I needed a pen name...out came Lizard Queen.

Over time, it shortened to LQ. It reminds me of my friends, my younger happier days, and the awesome love and goofiness we all still share.

That's cool *grin*
My friend Laura quotes the Simpsons all the time!
