Hi all I was just wondering how everybody thought up your nickname to come on this forum. We all have our own so i shall tell you how i got mine.I was searching google for Madrid and up came this site. It said sign up here and whilst thinking about it put in billy the man because that was the first name i could think of. Before i knew it i was signed up as billy the man which is not what i would have been liked to have been called but never mind. It taught me to read all the rules for any other forum im on. If you go on other forums you would recognize me under a differant name

Hi billy the man! I'm MadridMan! :jump: billy the man, you can always change your username - don'tcha know - by going into your "my profile" and changing it there. But, of course, if you change it now we may not recognize you.  Saludos, MadridMan

I just put my name as I was given it at birth, but no-one still calls me that, not even my mum, it just gets shortened to Sally. My Dad chose my name and i'm named after the salvation army (oh joy:()

Hi, I was nicknamed la duque when I got married and it stuck. My given name is Lisa Aragon and my married apellido is Duque, so la duque is my initials and last name, and since i'm the feminine part of this Duque union, the "la" sort of stuck  .

Booklady signifies my gender and my profession as a librarian. Not very imaginative, I'm afraid.

Well, I was planning a trip to Madrid in July of 2001 when I found this website......ergo GoMadrid.
That first trip was the launchpad for our adventure of living in Madrid for three months in 2002.

I live in New York City. Most people have heard of it and know where it is.  Also I use it on other websites too. Bill
