Purple and Amethyst
"30-Day Bloggers Group"  Open in new Window. by Heat Fivesixermiser Author Icon

Prompt: Tell us a little bit about your WDC handle/username. Is there a story behind it? Are you personally named after someone, family or otherwise?

I imagine my username is quiet obvious. I'm a purple fanatic. Anyone who knows me is well aware of that fact. Purple rules my world. I've always been drawn to the color. My bedroom is mostly purple. The walls, comforter, rugs--all purple. My everyday purse is purple, and I'd say about 60% of my clothing is purple as well. I've had purple cellphones and laptops. And I love purple with bling.

I really don't see myself as a Princess, but I probably do things that others would think of as being Princess like.

Here's a tidbit I bet a lot of you don't know. I've been here almost ten years now, and I didn't always have this handle. About six years ago I gave it up. *Shock2*. I wanted a change, to escape some bad drama I was caught up in on site. So I paid the gp's and changed my name to Amethyst. Still purple, and it was sweet that my WdC friends started calling me Ame for short, but I missed Purpleprincess.

I even have the sigs to prove it! *Laugh*

New sig for Amethyst
Purple butterfly

Luckily for me, when I emailed SM, he told me someone actually signed up on site and wanted that username, but they never logged on to make the account active. So I got my name back!

I guess at heart, I'm a Purpleprincess. What can I say?

And then there's my real name, Theresa, though everyone calls T, even my mother. Not always, but it's the nickname that sticks, and I do kinda like being called T. I don't believe I was named after anyone specific. That story seems to change depending on who you ask.
