What's the story behind your username and avathar?
Some usernames on this hub are funny, some are misleading (ahem, excuse me!), some look so real to real-life name, some look like acronyms, some look like spelling mistakes ... whatever be, our username identifies us to fellow hubbers in this wonderful community.
Why don't we share the reason/ story behind our username??
Starting with mine, it's my sunsign. Didn't want to use my real name or initials, so I opted for that for easy rememberance. Honestly, never imagined it would cause so much of discussion on the hub
What's your story??
Your attitude determines your altitude!

wow kewl topic at last!
My username story is kinda unusual. I have said it time and again in other egroups which I participate, and ppl are TIRED OF hearing it.
Anyway here it goes.
My name is Prabha. Ages back, when I used to post here (around 3 years back), I was initially posting as 'THINKER'.(too confident about my ablity i guess ).
Then when I posted or replied in poetry section, ppl used to address ME AS "mr.thinker". That used to irritate me a lot.
(why is it, thinkers need to me male eh?)
THen i thought, I should keep a feminine name, (but did not wanan use my real name, for the fear of misuse)
During those days, there was a T.V serial of banupriya named
"shakthi" (MEANT TO BE USED TO REFER FORM OF LADY)
So I started posting as 'SHAKTHI'.
The prob did nto stop. "hi.mr.shakthi' used to be the replies I would get. (Why is not shakthi a female name!!)
So I started using 'Shakthipriya'. Many ppl who knew me as 'shakthi', did not like my new name.
So I went back to 'Shakthi'. Recently, I felt, nothing wrong in using my name, but not many were comfy calling me 'PRABHA'.
I had to prefix "Shakthi" to my name So thats the story of
"Shakthiprabha".
(dont bash me if its not intersting )
