Your AB Nickname
57 Answers
This has no doubt been asked before, but as I haven't been an ABer for very long, please forgive me!
Where did you get your nickname/monika for AB? Mine's very boring: mine and my husband's initials (smudge, you already know this and I know where yours came from because we had this conversation yesterday!). I'm useless at thinking up a nickie without it sounding obvious though, so I wondered where the inspiration came from.

When I was a kid (aged around 9 or 10), me and my mates used to make up codes a lot (I don't know if this is normal... I just assumed all kids do it, ne?) Anyway, one of the names for me that came out of one of our codes was 'Kinsao Ikioa'. I can't for the life of me figure out how we reached it, because it doesn't even have the same number of letters as my real name or any of my 'usual nicknames'... must have been one helluva code! Anyway, for some reason this name stuck in my mind. It has some kind of Oriental flavour to it, I think, although I don't think it's a 'real' name in any language. 'Kin' means 'gold' and 'sao' means 'pole' in Japanese, so I guess you could say it means something like 'gold pole', lol, I don't know if that's good or not...! Anyway I kind of adopted it for online use ever since I had a Japanese boyfriend. Bless him, my real name is a little difficult for him...
I was struggling for a new username & as I love gardening I started choosing things from my garden, but a lot of them were already taken. Ended up with my favourite tree, a robinia, although little weed might have been more appropriate!
My knickname as a baby was wiggy & my brother continued to call me that until I became a real wiggy for a while during chemo. He never said it again, I think he felt too sensitive about it but I really wouldn't have minded!!

golem is a transliteration of a single Hebrew word found only once in the Old Testament of the bible, Psalms 139v16, where it is translated 'my substance, yet being unperfect' where it refers to both a physical and spiritual embryonic state.
It is also a figure from Jewish mythology, formed from clay and animated by writing the word 'truth' on it's forehead. One account has that it gets out of control and causes chaos, rather than bringing the help that it was originally designed for.
It rarely, if ever, speaks.
