Honestly, my user name is pretty standard and boring. It is just my initials and the year I was born. I have used the same one for years and I still remember setting it up with my first email address. I was only 9 or 10 and I was very excited to have my own email, even though I had no one to email to. I guess its the little things!

My nickname is Sabrina, or Sabby, and I like cats so Sabbykitty seemed fitting. The avatar is a character named Vark and he's adorable.

I love the profile picture!

I used to write online and I did not want to use my real name as it's very "french" and most people that don't speak French cannot pronounce it right, and it also happens to be fairly long. So I thought I would look for a pen name. I was in a phase where I was really enjoying reading about mythology and all of that, and I read about Eris, the greek goddess of chaos, strife, sorrow and discord and that just fit my mental state so well at the time I had to take up that pen name. December was just a nice addition and it gave, I thought, a nice ring.

It's my real name. I however wanted to use snowflake but it was already in use. I heard it from Squidward. He called SpongeBob a unique snowflake.

Human reader sounds like the kind of name an alien would choose to blend in with humans that share their hobby. It's kind of odd but I guess that appealed to me.

It's my nickname with my lucky numbers. But I want to change it now because it's too personal.
