Where does your username come from?

[Marjo]

Hi guys, happy Friday and almost-weekend 

I see loads of different member names here on the community, sometimes funny ones or strange ones too which are fun to spot.  I wonder where they originate from so would like to ask you all:

Where does your username come from?

Is there a story behind it, or is it simply your first name (or part of it), like mine? I know some of your stories from over the years but it would be lovely to hear more.

Thanks!

I have what my dad always had....a pint mug! However, just the one tea bag, 3 sweetex, remove teabag after squeezing with & burning my fingers, add milk and a dash of cream. repeat throughout the day and make many trips for a leak, scraping doors and frames along the way 

I like my tea like my women....weak and sweet

Well, I work in an IT department but these days as well as desktops and laptops (of the Windows and Mac variety) I also find myself assisting people with setting up their work mail on mobiles and tablets.
