Is there a particular flower or plant you like? I use the same name on every forum and its not very imaginitive :-)

I was going to ask if there was a plant you like too.

Here's another thought - rearrange all the letter in your name and see if you can come up with something unique. That's how Michael came up with his name. There's a couple fun websites that will do it for you. I linked one of them below but just search for 'anagram' and some others will come up.

Englewood can be rearranged to:
Wooden Leg
Golden Woe
Loon Wedge

OK, those are all fairly odd, but if you play with your name, city, favorite hobby, etc, I'm sure you can find something that suits you! (Although "Loon Wedge" is pretty unique...)

Now I'm thinking of changing my name to "Awoke Toasted" (Eastwood Kate). Ah, a reminder of my college days!

Or maybe "Ragweed Tornadoes" (Eastwood Gardener).

Or "koala rodent" (Orlando Kate).

Or how about "Nerd Talooka" (another Orlando Kate construct)?

Wow, this is a lot more fun than working!!!

When I chose Hopeful in brevard it was to mean I had hope of becoming a good gardener. Over the years of being addressed as hopeful I suddenly realized I started to live up to the name and it has actually improved my outlook on life. It has helped me through a few tough challanges in the past two years. On the other hand a negative might lead to liveing down to it, as was recently exhibited on this forum. Pick wisely if it is a descriptive choice.

So you are saying Nerd Talooka may not be my best choice?!? LOL

I am enjoying the responses VERY much. Making me smile. I tried the anagram generator but nothing struck me yet as "me".

Hopeful-your approach is probably what I'm thinking of, an attitude, a one second summation. Wow that doesn't sound easy. Maybe try the anagram again...

the problem with a specific plant is I go thru phases (bamboo, tomatoes, roses, orchids) who knows what it will be next. I love them all.

thanks everyone for your thoughts. I'm still thinking....

Too funny, Kate.

Here are some of mine (using my name and Citrus):

minus creature
mucus retainer
ruminates ecru

I think I like 'ruminates ecru' the best...

Happy Christmas!

How names go wrong: license tag I saw in former neighborhood "fungal". I think she meant "fun gal" but it always seemed creepy to me.

naplesgardener ~ There are usually more than one flowerlady on different forums, I add a number at the end of mine for signing in, otherwise I'm FlowerLady in forums and have not run into any of the others. :-)

I like imagardener. So add a number to yours and go from there.

Thanks for the jolly laugh! Soltice, Nerd might not be bad if you think of it as very intelligent, studious and successful like Gates. I can see it now." Fla. soltice has been nominated one of the most successful gardeners on the planet." Fungal is too funny for words. Maureen, clever girl! Guess I will need to have some fun with my name.

Recognize me? New name, same me. I left my old identity active with email in case someone sees an old post and wants tomato seeds.
Thanks for your suggestions.
"A Wronged Older Gene" and "A Gowned Older Green"=englewoodgardener and just a bit wordy.

imagardener2

Hi Denise ~ I saw your new nic on another thread. Glad adding a number worked for you. imagardener, youragardener, wereallgardeners.

Have a great weekend ~ FlowerLady

Imagardener2 works OK but I'm still a little sorry you didn't pick "loon wedge". LOL Congrats on the new name. It fits you just fine.

Kate

Denise,

I think a true gardener must be someone who helps others grow things. And I have tomato plants setting fruit from your tomato seed swap work. So it fits.

Congrats on the new nomenclature.
