RE: @Crosheille - The Mysteries Behind the Handle

in OCD3 years ago (edited)

So I DEFINITELY pronounced it wrong. But to justify in the languages I speak often the SH is pronounced S.....
My question on seeing your post was more "what is a handle?" And, despite , many years here (okay more off than on the platform) I am learning something new! Like yours @crosheille, mine was born out of a combination of my name and the area where we live. Funnily enough after I initially chose the name for my sewing business (many years ago) my husband told me that it used to be a nickname - many years before he ever moved to this area! Of course the male goat is a BUCK and in Afrikaans the word for goat is BOK....
All I can say: it was definitely MEANT TO BE Buckaroo!

So a handle is another word for username. Since being on the platform I've been using that word instead because it just sounds more interesting to me.

Thanks for sharing about the origin of your handle (it’s such a fun name to read). I think it’s fun being able to mix around names and nicknames to come up with something that represents something about us or who we are.
