My oldest brother, who is now deceased, called me Sis when I was young. It morphed into Sissy. I use the name on the forums in remembrance of my brother.

Mine is a slang term which we used a lot in Ireland for someone who hates to part with their money Razz
Well...I thought it appropriate...kinda! laugh
It's the opposite to 'spendthrift'.

When I found a like-minded group of women on the internet, it felt as if I was coming home and I was so happy! I wanted a name that would always reminded me of that happiness and GentleRain just came to mind. Since I was a child I have loved soft weather days with a gentle rain. I either like to be inside and curled up with a good book to read, or outside with the raindrops kissing my face.

Mine goes with my avatar. Dancing Feather is the name of a sailing ship I saw in a drawing and eventually I'd like to own a small sailboat. I used the name because I figured if I was frugal enough I'd eventually save enough money to buy one.

Mine is my initials (before marriage) and birthday. Something easy for me to remember, and no one can google me! I was in a really bad relationship a while back, and do not want my ex to find me.

Meg*n Marie G**** born February 6, 1981

My name is spelled differently than any other "Megan," so it would be really easy to find me if I used the correct spelling of my name.

Escarcha is spanish for Frost, which is my maiden name. I minored in Spanish and am fluent in the language so it was easy for me to remember.
