just got struck by an odd thought: why do people have numbers in their screen names?

I myself have 3 numbers in mine (7, 40, + 3) because they're some of my favorite numbers in the Bible, but what other reasons does everyone else have?

I can't tell the difference between numbers and letters.

I figure it is because they cant have the original name and so they stick on numbers at the end, rather thatn coming up with a more unique name. then they keep that number on that name whereever they go. this is merely speculation.

It's because probably the name they have is somewhat common, so they want to use numbers to distinguish themselves. Take...Hikari. Do you know how many flipping Hikaris there are in the net?

The same reasoning as above for Sakura.Check how many girls here use Sakura
in their username.

ummm... I was using the name of a story I was writing that had a random cool sounding date that I picked as a screename when i joined. None of my other screennames have numbers though.

Hmm... are there any Net folk whose name is just a number? (Excluding ICQ).
