Light-hearted curiosity ... what's in a name?

Hi Pooka,

Lynn and I and the kids used pass a place called Jebel Ali Port on our travels, hence the moniker

I haven’t been back since Lynn passed away the thought of going on holiday on my own can’t do that, can’t face it.   Traveling to see my children up north is about all I can manage.  

Yes I often wonder where nicknames come from and how we come up with them  mine is my place of work and my last initial though that isn't a password for anything

Alison, aka Akela, makes me think of the Brownies and wonder where that connection is, jsbachaddict (who hasn't been on here too much lately) speaks for itself

Hi, 

Kenickie was the name of our last cat….named by Son 2 after a favourite band of his at the time, who in turn were named for the character in Grease! The cat was called Daisy at the rescue centre we got her from but our teenage son refused to have a cat called Daisy.

I always thought of Grease with your name it makes me want to sing 'we go together like whamalangalangabedingabedinggadong!!!!!' Or something like it

It's good to see that I'm not alone in being reminded of other people/objects/places/films after reading other's forum names. 

I can't think why a teenage boy wouldn't want to be calling out for Daisy the cat ....  and I now have Grease songs running through my head!

Mine is part of my email address, Winnie and I picked this about 10 years ago , it is also the first 3 letters of her nam and first 4 letters of mine. 

i think mine is quite easy to guess! 

Chelseabluegirl , I get it... you're an Arsenal fan?  (is it time for me to start running away)

lol!  if you had said West Ham or tottenham you’d def be on your way! 

I will add a Grease song to keep you singing, my first name isi Sandra and my surname begins with D

Look at me I'm Sandra D xx 

Have singsong day x
