Choosing your Username

Dragonfly your story has set me off again. I have a lovely dragonfly brooch given to me by my late sister. Now when I wear it I shall think of your daughter as well

As to my username, I wish I had been a bit more original, but the fact remains, I am Arabella's nana

That's me wrong then, kitty I thought it was a play on Ketty Lester of Love Letters fame.

Dragonfly what a lovely way to remember your daughter!

Mine is my childhood nickname and my (sort of) location!

Galen - not to me. Am I being thick again?

glass when you say glassortwo you do mean "water" don't you !

I have a motorcycle, I am a gran hence bikergran lol

Mine is what I love to do!!

DF1 - what a lovely way to celebrate your DD's life. I shall think of her every time I see your username.
Mine? Just vaguely connected with my childhood stamping ground

Mines pretty obvious

Dragonflies are such beautiful creatures, and like the others, I will think of you and your daughter when I see one hovering on a warm, sunny day.
Mine is a mix of the beginnings of my children's names. My eldest daughter, my middle daughter and lastly, my son's initial.

I have a dragonfly brooch. I will think of your daughter . my SIL wanted Stanley for their son but when I said our parents' phone number was Stanley 1600 I think they changed their minds.

dragonfly Lovely way to remember mine is easy

Dragonfly Mine is boring. Some of yours are so clever and conjure up all sorts of pictures I may change it !

Mine is a play on the words that I am a granny ... not! But I'll change it soon because from July I'm no longer going to be not a granny .

Mine's pretty obvious - and more obvious every time I look in the mirror and see someone like my granny.

Mine is a forename I'm sometimes called but isn't my name the second half is a surname I like.

Mine is a partial anagram and the vain hope that I might become elegant one day.

Mine is my nickname and county.....one 'L' please!

Is alchemillamollis still around? I liked hers!

Dragonfly I'll remember your story now, each time I see a dragonfly.

Mine is obvious - I chose it a few weeks before I was 64. My sister and I were planning lunch together on my forthcoming birthday and both burst into song at the same time.

Jane, yes, I'm familiar with Josie's story. The jewellery is exquisite, isn't it? Merlot - lovely post, thank you. And thanks all.

Dragonfly what a lovely choice of name.
I wonder if you have heard of this charity www.josiesdragonfly.org/
set up by a young girl with cancer.
A friend gave me a dragonfly pendant from the shop for my 60th birthday and I really treasure it.

Mine's a partial anagram!

I don't think I need to explain mine, do I?

dragonfly I will think of your post whenever I see one now.

Mine is quite obviously my first clematis.

Dragonfly That is a good choice as a way to remember how special she was to you.

Dragonfly what a touching way to choose a name. Made me quite emotional, thank you for telling us.
Oh mine is obvious, but I wish it wasn't as I have to be so careful about what I write.
