name change

[majesticzaichik]

I've decided to change my lj name after 18 years. I had to pay 15 dollars for it so I hope I don't regret it because the last time I paid for anything on lj was a paid account at least 10 years ago (Justin gifted that to me for that about 5 years in a row for Valentine's Day until I told him I didn't want a paid account anymore

I like it!

I saw the phrase love becomes her on I think it was someone's myspace title or blog or something like (this was 13 or 14 years ago - I could probably go dig through my LJ to find the exact thing I took it from lol) and I really liked that. But of course lovebecomesher was taken so I stuck an x like any good mid '00s college student :D

That's awesome that you replied because for the longest time I read your name as "love become sher" so I kept thinking "who is Sher?" I thought for a minute you could be a "Cher" fan, but then remembered her name isn't even spelled like that. I think about a year ago I realized it was 99% more likely it was "love becomes her" and then thought it was a quote from something.

Someone else made that comment to me about reading it the way you did and I was surprised because it never occurred to me to read it as love become sher. I honestly should go find the entry when I changed my name and tag it haha.

mines nothing really fancy just My first and middle name and birth year. I had a few other journal accounts by different names but I don't even remember what they all were or what meaning they had anymore.

[majesticzaichik]

yeah my name, like many others like it, has an obscure origin that only known by the creator. Yours is fairly obvious and doesn't need much explaining, I applaud that too : ).

I love it!

Thanks! To me, your name sounds like you're a fan of the Scandinavian God, but knowing you a bit, it may be related to an anime/manga.

Thanks for telling us. My LJ name is the name I was born with.

[majesticzaichik]

I would have actually not guessed that! Thanks for sharing

Hahaha, well, um. This is a pun? A very bad riff on "kick the habit". :)

On Dreamwidth, I'm hafnia, which is the compound I wrote most of my graduate thesis about. :D

[majesticzaichik]

lol! I don't think I'd have ever guessed. I think for yours, my guess was that it was some sort of meme I missed out on LOL. It seems super obvious to me now that you explained it derp.
