Meanings of Usernames

Anonymous
Not applicable

Have you ever wondered what some of the usernames in this Community mean?   Some are simple - for example Gerry, diminutive of Geriatric (which is how I feel most mornings until I get my nightcap!)

 

One that intrigues me is @anticpated  -  is it perhaps a concatenation of antic (old), pa (father) and Ted.  Is anticpated a retired priest - Old Father Ted?   

 

Have you any theories as to origins of particular usernames?

 

 

Gerry

Which raises a very good question - can we change our usernames, Tony?

No, I just changed my name legally wink

@Gerry, I can change names as a coordinator, but I only do this when security and safety are at risk for anyone.
