No big thing with my name.. I am a petit lady(shorter than 5 ft) :eek:) and yet I still get asked to be a flower girl but never really has been one. But my love for flowers everyone at the shop calls me the flower girl. Its all my mothers fault. LOL ( you know what im talking about if you read my previous posts in welcome section)
 
I think mine is somewhat self explanatory!! Although I am not a flower deliverer... I am the Floral Chauffeur after all.!!!!
 
My real name is Melissa, but everyone in my family calls me Missy. Sadly people often point out to me they had a pet by the same name!
 
Sad to say - just my initials and my husband's also. I thought about using
HOT MAMMA but that might have been pushing it a bit.

I also had thought of PISSPOINT since that seems to come up alot in this business.:rolleyes:
 
Whats in a name ?

I was feeling very creative (delusional some might cruelly say !) when I picked my name .but I am from Ireland ,have blue eyes and happen to be a florist who likes Iris so Bingo.My real name given by my darling Mom has a flower connection too though as it's Teresa after the Saint Teresa of the Little Flower .So looks like I was destined to be involved with flowers at some level.A few years back the Saints relics came to Ireland and I did go to see them.It was really amazing as literally 100's of 1000's came out to honour her so that was kinda nice .
Great thread this as we all get to know each other a little bit more.

In 1956, I received my first amateur radio license, KN6BAJ. Over the years I have moved physically to other parts of the USA and my license number changed from "6" (California) to "4" (SE USA.) Also, as my radio priveleges changed, the length of my license "call sign" got smaller. KT4YE represents the second highest privelege set available. (I'll try for the highest some day!)

Amateur radio operators are sometimes called "hams" for reasons that escape me. But amateur radio fills a vital link in homeland security, as well as national and international emergency communications. For example, in the first 24 hours after Katrina and the SE Asia tsunami, Amateur Radio was the ONLY communication tool that was operational in the affected areas.

It's also a blast to be able to talk to folks in remote parts of the world. Two of my most memorable conversations were with Tom Christian (direct descendant of Fletcher christian of "Mutiny On The Bounty" fame) and a fellow in Antarctica located about 75 yards North (the only direction) of the physical South Pole.

But I often sign my posts with a diminutive of my given name, William, as...

Bill Miller
 
Not very imaginative, I just use my given name. I never liked it growing up. I was in the 4th grade before I could spell it:dunce. People never pronounce it correctly, which is good for catching telemarketers before they get started. If the phone rings and the caller asks for Anna, the girls know it's probably not anyone I want to talk to! I'm still working on several friends who call me "Annalise, or Annalisia--It's pronounced Anna Lisa darn it!
