flist friday: nicknames

[erychan86]

Happy Friday!

I hope you guys are having a good one and that the waether will cooperate with whatever you want to do over the weekend! Here it's suppose to be cold but sunny so I hope I'll be able to spend a nice Sunday with Eric on the Vespa, going to visit our favorite spots before he leaves. He's going to be on Watch* on Saturday so I'll drop him off on Saturday morning at 7.29 and I'll be able to pick him up on Sunday at 7.31.

*Watch: On Yachts there always have to be someone on board when in Port, so there is a rooster in place where every day one member of every department (Interior Stewart/Stewardess, Deckhand and Engineer) has to stay on board on call for 24 hours. These 3 crew members can't leave the boat and have to take care of some tasks, like rounds and complete checklists.

The question I want to ask you today is from one of the Memes I did a while ago, so for some of you I might already know the answer (but I probably forgot because I'm so bad a remembering these kind of things) but please feel free to repeat if you feel to:

.What's the story behind your nick name?
.Do you have the same nickname everywhere or you have different ones? In that case What's your favorite?
.Was your nickname here on LJ your one and only choice or you had some other ones in mind? What made you choose this one, in that case?

For me it's easy and lame LOL. My nickname is erychan86 because my name is Erika (but my friends call me Ery) Chan is because I grew up loving manga and anime and I am the kind of person who would be called Erika-chan by everyone xD and 86 because I was born in 1986 :D
I'm erychan86 or simply erychan everywhere. I think my first nickname was akirE, but it was a LONG TIME AGO. I always use erychan/erychan86 when I fill in the nick name part because I'm so used to it and I've never thought about changing it! :D

What about you?

I've had so many names on LJ but this is one of my dream names because it has meaning for me. After everything I've been through in my life I see myself as being pretty fearless and that's why I love it so much. On other social media like Instagram I'm ~mermaid.with.ink and that's another favourite of mine because I love mermaids and I have a lot of ink :-)

I hope you don't mind I started following you on Instagram :D

That's a great reason behind a nickname! Thank you for sharing <3
