jabberknit
Mine came with me from Ravelry (a fabulous website which is like Fetch-for-knitting) and is a combo of my initials and knitting. Knitting is one of the other things I like to do, though sadly not so much recently due to arthritic thumb joints. Probably caused by too much knitting over the last 50 years.
My avatar is me eating cake during a marathon, because that's another thing I like to do.

minardi
When I joined Fetch, I didn't realise how important a user name would be - doh!
I love Formula 1 and at the time, Minardi were the team always at the back of the grid so it seemed appropriate.

Ooh Avatar explanations!
I've used Brian pretty much since I started because I think in real life I'm about as far from The Blessed One as could be.
I'm cleanshaven, fair hair, weedy and quiet. I often get confused looks when I meet a new Fetchie at a race because I'm not what they pictured at all.
I did once try to break the run of Brian pics with one of cheeses for some reason. It meant something at the time, I'm sure, but I've no idea why now. It didn't last. People just got confused and didn't know who I was!

Alice the Camel
I also read Nellers’ posts/blogs in a Brian voice
I was living in a sandpit in the Middle East when I joined Fetch, and I have a lumpy body shape...hence Alice the Camel.

Rosehip
Mulbs named me as my original choice was not shout out or introduction friendly.
All diminutive versions of my name were taken and no one calls me by my full first name.
My nickname has always been hippo, but we had a famous plodding one of those-
So Rosehip I became.
Being somewhat autumnal, it also suits my age!

DoricQuine
Doric is the dialect spoken up here in the NE of Scotland and quine (pronounced kwine) is Doric for lass or girl. At my advanced age I'm maybe pushing it being called a quine but I'd rather have that than wifie!

Like fine wines, fine quines are mature with complex characters!
