Enjoying The Scenery

I realise that manips are not everyone's cup of tea, but if you, like me, enjoy a good photo manip, check out Professeur-Snape over at deviantArt. He's actually a really nice fellow named Michael, who does some delicious manips. He also has hit quite a few of my personal kink buttons with his SSHG manips. I particularly enjoyed this one:

I Just Gotta Know

Okay. January is practically a wrap, the cold and snow and wind and general post-holiday yuck has everyone a bit blah, and posts and SSHG_Promptfest comments are thin on the ground. So I want to ask a question that may possibly get me in trouble, but hey, I've known you all for four-going-on-five years so I have no shame.

How did you get your LJ Nickname? Where did it come from? I realise some of you use your actual names, but sometimes when I see an unusual one, or one that is especially cryptic, I think, "Where did they get their name?"

Okay, here's the chance to fess up. How did you come up with that fascinating name? What does your LJ Nickname mean? How is it significant to you?

Discuss.
