I have been trying and failing to remember how Savvy came about. The PF is obvious, so long ago, and the 92, it was a very special year for me.
I was totally new to social media when I came to Planet Fierce and had no idea I would get so deep into it. All because of Adam.
Since January 2009, life has been so much more fun and I always sympathize with those who have missed ANYTHING Adam-related. Three or 4 times a year a picture will surface that I have not seen before and it's like Christmas. LoL Doesn't take much to make me happy.

My name comes from a Star Trek novel by Diane Duane. Rihannsu is what the Romulans call themselves. I just loved the word and used it for my kennel name when I was raising Mini poodles so ended up using it as an online name.

Just got on and see that we are giving name origins. Yay!!  Newer friends on Atop may have guessed why I chose my moniker but folks who have known me for a while know that my name is waaaaaaay longer than it currently appears. During Idol Season 8 and its summer AI tour, I used to lurk at the Other Place. A lot of posters there used to angst over whether or not Adam would have an emo, Elvis, spikey-looking or a messy version of the Elvis hairdo each concert night. When I finally delurked and needed to choose a name, EmoElvisSpikeyMessyElvis had to be it!! See.... I am a 'tad' fixated on his glorious mane and I thought (and still think) that all Adam's hair iterations are expressions of his style, creativity, emoting a current view, etc., etc.... So no angsting for me on concert nights. Instead, anticipation ruled the nights as I couldn't wait to see what the heck he would do with the 'do. Posters welcomed me warmly and we had a good laugh about the name and my hair advocacy. I remember posting, "Adam, wear it and I will name it!" After that, we'd have fun times naming some of Adam's hairstyles and my name got longer with each addition. And boy, was he prolific with them 'dos!! Thankfully, he slowed down cuz my name got way too long. LMFAO!! :D : On the last Season 8 AI concert night, Adam went all out and the Elvis Pompadour TOWERED to the heavens and we had a blast naming that baby: TallAssPompaDo (my avi). The End. ** My full name: EmoElvisSpikeyMessyElvisPepeLePewEdwardScissorhandsSonictheHedgehogFluffyPremoTallAssPompaDoDirtyEmoTswoopBangDangleDeanFloppyEmoGlitterSpikeWholeLottaBefeatheringCockaDoFlauntingFlamesMcEmoIBroughtRazors!LeBedHeadFrankenGumpChromeAshPlatinumFantasy |

Pretty long promo video, of which I hope we will eventually get the most important parts translated: As found on twitter: lilybop2010 Sauli's sweet face at 3:13 "On one beautiful night I met a person who changed my life a bit" <3 TY @siriloveskevin www.youtube.com/watch?v=tb5a90n7mzA#t=205 …ETA: nonotme, I see, there is an early fandom trauma we have in common! lol My sincere sympathies. |

Theosgma, I had thought your name had something to do with theology . . .
(My name, * sigh,* is just my cat's name - BORING!). (Buts she's a good old girl.)

Savvy......How come I'm not surprised you can't remember why you picked your name. TeeHee. ![]() ![]() When I joined Planet Fierce I was impressed with a poster named Mainefan. So, I borrowed the idea, and decided since I was an Adam fan from Alabama and was also a huge fan of Alabama football, I'd just be bamafan. I had to add the pf for twitter since some Alabama football fan already had the name. Whenever I meet up with other Atoppers, most just call me Bama. |

Well, I do orient most of life towards philosophical and theological kinds of topics. But theosgma is definitely my way of always keeping a smile on my face because it makes me think of his lovely little face. |

LOVE the name stories! I always wondered about many of these, especially mmmgoodcracker and EmoElvisSpikeyMessyElvis.
Wish I had a better name story, but I just wanted something easy. I often sign correspondences with just the first letter of my name.

ETA A bunch of you today have labelled yourselves as lurkers but probably don't realize how familiar you are to those of us who have been here awhile. So great to see you guys!
