Wow, I just got through reading every single response to this thread. This thread is very interesting! I orignally signed up as dunbarj, well because... it is my of last name and first initial. How boring is that???????? I found the first few days incrediblely difficult. And I needed a change. I wanted to change my quit around. So since the original name didn't stand out, I needed to change that. But, my inspiration for remaining quit, is..... my two daughters. And I like it that people know I am a mother. It gives me a reason to to show them off!!! That's it. I've never been creative on the nickname thingy. 4my2girls [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/5/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 266 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 8,009 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $869.82 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 21 [B]Hrs:[/B] 11 [B]Mins:[/B] 34 [B]Seconds:[/B] 26

My quit name is my nickname mostly, with the 'k' thrown in at the end for my surname. Sushi happens to be my favourite food. In addition, I work for a Japanese company, so it fits (although not many of my co-workers know me by this name). And just to dispel the visual you've come up with . . . . I am a blonde! sushi-k [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/31/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 69 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,739 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $621 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 6 [B]Hrs:[/B] 18 [B]Mins:[/B] 26 [B]Seconds:[/B] 44

gread question Jacko, I chose the name crush because it's short for the name I used to play video games under back in the day, and it's just much cooler and more unique than Kevin. I guess you could get into deep psychological reasons for me using this name, but basically I just liked it.

It's a combination of my husband's name and mine. Found this site 3 days before my quit date & was too stressed over quitting to get creative. Chose it simply because it was easy for me to remember it.
