Well, Bernadette is somewhat of a placeholder habit I've got to include in my usernames of places I end up on, and they mostly have to be taken from works of artists I listen to. Now I don't particularly listen to IAMX (I know a lot of his stuff but only heard 1 song, 1 song as Chris Corner, 1 cover from another person and 1 song from his ex-band Sneaker Pimps), but somehow I felt like I could have something out of his song title catalogue. Also, I was lowkey-to-highkey obsessed with said song that I heard from him. And Cydonia is for my obligatory Muse-related nickname tendention as I have it as part of my usernames in Deviantart and Spigo (.us and .uk) as well. There :)

it's sorta complicated lol
Вавёрачка is squirrel in Belarusian, transliterated to English letters and letter Ч (ch) in the middle looks like number 4. So you read it vaverachka (stress on e)

The story is that in Russian the word is Белка which sounds like it has the same root as the word white (белый). And my dad used to joke that the word in Russian is wrong because no squirrel is white. They are red (well in America they are grey but we didn't know that back then lol). And I was that classic looking Belarusian kid: light skin, almost white blond hair, light grey eyes. So he would say that I'm белка, but it sounds prettier in Belarusian. LOL

told ya. long story lol

My username is actually pretty simple to explain. My most favorite soccer team in Germany wears mauve-white jerseys. Since I fell in love with that color, I call myself Mauve. :D

Re: Why did you pick the username you've got?

Well, obviously because I am a Cypriot girl (or used to be, because now I'm 29 years old).

I really don't like my username. I used to have another username (FoFo) but then I got a "privacy-crisis" and I thought that everyone was investigating on my dealings on the internet, so I got this switched to this stupid username I have now that I would like to get rid of! :lol:

The NHL team I support and my birth year. Really simple as that. :p

There aren't many Cypriot girls around on this planet, so it's not that stupid:)

Re: Why did you pick the username you've got?

So.. I've got blue eyes that I really like, such username fits me, describes me a little but also I like how it sounds like when you spell it. :)
I had to add something because 'blueeyes' wasn't available anymore, so instead of putting lazy 123 at the end, I've decided to put 00 in between and those zeros are meant to imitate eyes somehow.. Don't know if it works but it is as it is :D

hi man!

But the pronunciation is totally different for you. I want it to be pronounced as it's hi with the i has the vowel sound as in bee or beat. And the a-sound as in car or ball, but not man XD

Good luck :lol:

When joining the forum, I wanted my username to be timeless and a bit mysterious... I don't know if I achieved my goal eventually, but at the time I thought the best way to do that was to delve into Latin. "Tuorem" is actually the accusative case of the Latin word "Tuor", which means "sight". I chose that declension of the word simply because I liked how it was written: not too simple, yet not complicated either.

Also, it had to start with a "T" to make a nod to my first name.

Re: Why did you pick the username you've got?

I love Scandinavia and especially the "midsummer festivities" and the midnightsun that comes with them! :-)

I had an old account on this forum when I first joined in 2011 already, but I lost my password and can't recover it again. [maybe some admin [MENTION=4364]Matt[/MENTION] [MENTION=4371]Sean[/MENTION] is able to connect both accounts?]

My first username was "Joyride" which has something to do with Scandinavia too. I am a big fan of the Swedish band Roxette and it is their biggest hit! :-)
