What's the first thing we look at when we meet new people on Whyville? Okay, it's probably their face. But the screenname is the second thing we look at. Your screenname expresses you. Here are some screenname stories.

BK4U's story:

I was watching TV when I first signed up for Whyville, and I was trying to think up a name that wasn't taken. A Burger King ad came on TV, and their slogan at the time was BK4U. I thought it sounded really creative and used it!

SamGirl21's story:

I was actually on the school computers when a girl said about somebody, "Hey, isn't that that Sam girl?" It sounded pretty cool, so there's how I got the SamGirl part. My friend's birthday is on the 21st, so I added on a 21. I think my screenname expresses me!

Katmo's story

My cousin was showing me what Whyville was and we decided to make a joint screenname. So we put our names together and came up with Katmo!

LebAngel's story

"Leb" is short for Lebanese, which I am. I think angels are pretty things, so I added the two together to come up with my screenname!

3Shamrock's story:

Shamrocks are lucky, and I wanted some real luck in Whyville considering my other account got hacked. I think my screenname really is lucky because I haven't been hacked yet!

Seems like screennames can sometimes be a like a lucky charm for people, and screennames always express a bit of you! So, what's the story behind YOUR screenname?
