What's in a name?

Started by Kelly , author of Blue Frogs Legs 6/30/2010 10:04:57 AM

I have been coming across some amazing, funny, strange and just bizarre blog titles in the past couple weeks as my community has been growing (I heart it!)

I realize Blue Frogs Legs is a pretty strange name too.... so here's a thread to let us know the story of how your blog title came to be... and of course end it with a link to your blog, of course!!!!

I was JUST thinking about telling someone this story last night.

 

When I first started my blog, it was going to be a combination of homemade beauty recipes, stories about Manitou Springs (where I live) and life "stuff." (It has since morphed into only homemade beauty recipes and home remedies for now.)

But I wanted it to signify a hippie-esque vibe (because putting food on your face for beauty is kinda hippie-ish, and because Manitou Springs is famous for its hippies), thus the "Crunchy..."

And something signifying a cute girl, because that's what you when and after you have food on your face; thus, the "Betty."

Crunchy Betty.

But now I want to know where Blue Frog Legs came from!

I got my title Stand Firm from a verse in the Bible that has been going over and over in my head for awhile now.  It reminds me to stand strong in my faith, no matter what I see or hear around me.  I wrote a little bit about my blog title inspiration here...http://standfirm1558.blogspot.com/2010/01/welcome.html

Everyone is always telling me I have a big mouth....can't keep it shut, always have something to say!  So that just came to mind when I was naming my blog!!

I've been wondering about the meaning behind your blog, blue frog legs!

I actually did a post on this when I first started blogging.  Here's the link as to why I chose Honey Kids as a name....

Well, I did marry a moron, and I survived it!!

The name totally fits my experiences. I fell in love with, married, and had a beautiful child with a moron. I learned many things along the way, afterwards, and am still learning. I started blogging to document my powerful journey about how an abusive man could NOT beat me down, no matter how hard he tried, and the wisdom, strength courage, insight and laughs along the way.

Breanna, that is a great verse, great title. Thank you for sharing. By the way, I was perusing your blog and watched that video you have posted of the 2 sisters with CF singing, I didn't have a dry eye either!!!

Michelle, I think that is so cute !!!

Cori, my little peanut has a BIG mouth too!!! What I mean is that she takes the biggest spoonfuls of food you have ever seen, for such a little person, lol!!!

Cams, holy, never knew anything about honey except that bees make it, lol!!! Very cool!!!!

Suzie Q, your title and profile pic just make me laugh - out loud!! I think I married a moron too!!!!!

Ok, Alaina your turn.....

ha, I was going to write a post about my title, but I didn't find the time (oops)  Anyway, I titled mine View From Down Here because I'm a short person (5'1") and I come across as really quiet and shy (or at least I was that way in high school and college), but once you get to know me, I'm pretty opinionated, won't shut up easily and speak sarcasm fluently.  So when I was trying to think of a good name, it just popped in my head - this is MY view from down here!  (view from the opinionated, loud mouthed short person :-) 

It's not incredibly creative, but there you have it!
