Inquiring Minds Want to Know
Ok, I've seen so many interesting, wonderful, intriguing names that y'all give yourselves and was wondering if you would mind sharing why you chose that particular name for yourself---no, Dr. Phil isn't lurking in the background
 I'll share with you why I chose "expatgirl". An expat(short for expatriate) is someone who lives outside of their home country. Our first foreign posting was in Egypt for 6 years, back to Houston for 4 more and now to Kazahstan. I had a wonderful, kooky friend in Egypt and she composed a song using the same tune as Elton John's "Uptown Girl" and turned it into "Expat girl living in an Expat World". It was an immediate hit--anyway that's where expat girl comes from.

I picked the first part of my name years ago, Phoenyx. When I was in college, I regularly played an online game (I still occasionally play, but not very often) & my user name is Phoenyx. I chose that name because I like phoenixes, but there was already a phoenix as a monster in the game, so I couldn't use Phoenix. My friend suggested changing the 'i' to a 'y' and sure enough that worked.
The second part, Starr, is my married name. It's not very original, I know, but it's me & I like it.

My name comes from a Peter Sellers movie "I Love you Alice B Toklas". Peter plays a lawyer that falls for a girl (me) that makes special brownies ... I love those old Peter Sellers movies. BTW: My favorite "unknown" Sellers movie is "The Party". It's a classic comedy that for some reason isn't played much. If you see The Party on the TV guide, watch for classic Sellers humor.
