Chatterbox: Down to Earth
So, I've noticed
So, I've noticed many Chatterboxers have code names, including myself. And that got me thinking. How did everyone choose their name for Chatterbox? Is it a pet's name, an idea from a book, or just an odd thing that struck you? I'd love to hear how everyone choose the name they use here!

Well, I've always liked fairies and my favorite color is blue (and purple) and it sounds good together! And the squiqqly lines are for some awesomeness to make it look better! :)

I'm world's faerie geek. Ask me anything. Just anything about faeries.
I don't know if any of you know about the Flower Faeries, by Cicely Mary Barker. But, according to a quiz in one of the many books we have, my faerie name is Blackberry Elf-Glitter. I only realize now in my old age, that I could have picked any berry, not just the example they gave of blackberries, but.... it's kind of stuck now.
Since we don't have any blackberries in our backyard, I instead act the part of the Sloe faerie, which we do have.

I was going to ask you if you got it from the Flower Fairies by Cicely Mary Barker... I absolutely love those books!! I got the Complete Flower Faires book for my birthday :D And for that quiz I either got (I need to check again) Acorn Elfglitter or Blackberry Elfglitter. I have an elderberry tree, crab apple tree, and some apple trees too (:

mine is (one of) my Elven names.
I really don't like Gilraen. not me. the other other Gilraen. google her. I can't look. I'm actually watching Born of Hope now so.............
I'm thinking about changing it. I'd like to go back to ye good ol' days when my username and nickname for everything was Rose Twinkle. or maybe I should use Foozy. It is after all my real nickname.

@ Gilraen:
I always wondered why, if you hate Aragorn so much, you would use the name of his mother. I started the first few minutes of Born of Hope but I always have a slight distrust of fan fiction, which those self-made films pretty much are. If you think it's good I'll find it again.

I agree with you, Hufflepuff Forever! People don't always believe me when I tell them I'm Hufflepuff (most of my friends are certain I'd be Ravenclaw) and Hufflepuff is generally undersetimated and excused from being important in my experience. I will stand up to a Hufflepuff rude and unkind Hufflepuff joke when I hear one!
Oh, and virtual high five for Hufflepuff!

Oooh! This is really interesting! Oh, you probably have no idea who I am, since I don't write in the Chatterbox much (wait, is this my first time?....It's hard to remember 'cause I've been reading it a whole lot....oh, now I remember, I wrote in the Muse Library as CaptainRead/CaptainReed, but not here yet, I think....I'm confusing myself now!) Aanyywaaays, I suppose that if this is really my first post here then a name introduction is probably a good way to start, so...um..yeah! It will probably change between CaptainReed and CaptainRead because the "a" in Read likes vacations (seriously! It'll probably ask to be paid soon...) and "Reed" sounds like the neatest name ever in my mind, but I love reading too (obviously). I'm not sure where the Captain came from, except I've been reading nautical books recently......
(hmmm, I seem to like ending sentences with "......" .........) !?!?
The spam filter says "keex". Is that like kleenex? I do have a bit of the sniffles, now that it's been mentioned...

Just going to say, your post is HILARIOUS!!!!! Hope to see more of you soon!!!!
(January 25, 2014 - 5:40 pm)
Why Thankyou! *bows delightedly* I do try my best... (there's the "..." again, why can't I stop? (Do I want to stop?(hmmmm))) As yet in my life I haven't considered a career as a comedian, but I do have my moments when total utter randomness sets in (I feel that usually I'm fairly serious, actually)! Randomness reminds me of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, probably the most random book ever read by me (and that's saying something). Have you ever tried flying? I haven't, but according to the aforementioned book all you have to do is throw yourself at the ground and miss, which, if gravity went for a vacation, would be extremely easy.... There I am being random again, please enjoy it!
P.S. Did you notice the "a" is on vacation at the mo? Can you guess where he's gone?
(January 25, 2014 - 7:51 pm)
I like you. You remind me of me.

My friends and I created this combined email/group where everyone could go on at the same time, so no one knew who was talking, and we called it Legion Legion. Now, my friend borrowed the name fora google plus community.
I was going to choose Sapphire for my code name too! But now I'm not so sure. I have a lot of nicknames/code names like Lillum, Olivia, and Nova. I might post as them soon...
Can you guys guess what other name I've posted as? I didn't post a lot with it though...(I'm ending sentences with ... too!)
