PK are my initials and pkmac is a nickname my BFF used to call me in 8th grade. Not completely sure where it came from it is either something to do with macaroon or mac & cheese.  :P

Huh! I just assumed your maiden name was MacSomething!

I'm a very big fan of  Star Wars and had a childhood crush on Luke Skywalker.  Red5 was his call name in Episode 4 when the rebels attacked the death star. 
Yep, I have no life.   :P

I knew that! :D

Alex's university nickname was Slices (due to his being able to eat huge amounts of pizza) and when we were dating someone asked him where his missus was - I've been SlicesMissus ever since (when I'm not being bookshopjenni).

It's my name.  It's my real name.   It's not short for anything.  Mork is fine.

my user name is in Spanish - Reina de Luz, it means "Queen of Light" in English and I chose it aaages ago because I wanted something that played on my real name (Lucie, which means light bearer), my hispanic heritage, and one of my nicknames (Luz).

I thought about going by something like "eyesonaplate" (ala Santa Lucia) but that didn't stick ;-).

I used to have a variety of usernames based on my horses' show names, but I got tired of switching every time I swapped horses.  So I came up with equestrianerd, which adequately describes my interest in all things horses and computers. :)
