What does it MEAN??

[Melalvai]

Melalvai is from a elven language my husband invented when he was a teenager. It might sound weird but constructed languages, or "con-lang" are so common that their forums & lists make TE and even Bike Forums look tiny and mild mannered. The whole family has their own elven name. It's an easy way to come up with a name that has not been chosen by anyone else.

Melalvai means Peaceful Mischief. My daughter, Nelalvai, means Little Mischief.

Kelowna.
When I first started coming here I dyslexified that into "clown".
No offense intended, you can see how that can happen

Mine is so unimaginative.

Mine is so unimaginative.

Don't feel bad, SB -- mine is even less imaginative.

Hey, maybe we should start a pool to come up with a new screen name for me!!

[NoNo]

My name is Annette, so No No Nanette. That and one day in HS Chem, my friend spun around in his seat and said "I'm going to start calling you 'NoNo'. You just look like one." I don't know what that means

Heh. I call my interesting femme parts the "No No Good and Plenty". So naturally I laughed out loud at work when I read this.

Oh good, it's an establishment where the lass is wearing something

Funny you say that: I didn't add that I am supposed to be topless in this stained glass portrait. So now that you mention it.

Yes, but you get bonus creativity points for putting an underscore between your first name & last initial.

[Wahine]

Mine is a nickname my husband has gave me and is commonly used amongst my buddies. I love to windsurf, surf and snowboard - all baord sports.... hawaiian origins... thus Wahine. And no, I'm not Hawaiian and my real name could have easily been Meg McKilty based on my ancestry. My real name is a very old Celtic name.

Mine's my initals plus anniversary month/day. Not very original, but I got tired of trying to remember "who I was" at different places, and this is easy for family and close friends to recognize as me. I really admire the quirky, descriptive names some of you have come up with!
