The most pleasant of my days have been spent in the company of cats. My passion for cats is well known within my community, where I am commonly called the "Cat Guy". That suits me fine.
Mine's pretty straightforward. My name's Leigh. Sounds similar to "Les" (at least in French). I like Les Misérables. I thought it was witty at the time.
Mine is just a word I made up a long time ago. My then-boyfriend and I were talking about meat and we got to thinking: if cows are beef, pigs are pork, etc., what would humans be? So we came up with "hork." Since then, it's sort of become my default user name, but now I wish I had used something Broadway related (I think of good user names all the time, but I'm stuck with this one).
I worked on a show that featured sword fights prominently so I picked my favorite weapon (sabre) and since i am of the female persuasion gender wise ( sabre female didn't have quite the ring to it) lady - since I also am fascinated by class structures, lady seemed a good fit and its been my nom du interweb for the last 15+ years.
I have no recollection of making an account on this site, but Cinders is from "Mr. Cinders," which is one of my favorite musicals, and Golightly is from "Breakfast at Tiffany's" - and actually one of my middle names!
They/them.

I used to have an account called youwillbefound but I forgot the password to it too so... youwillbefound2
As a brunette, I chose this name because it reminded me of when I was a kid and loved watching Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour movies. Also loved all those "Road To" movies with Bing. Movies from yester-year.

Mine was like my 12th attempt at coming up with an unclaimed username. I wanted to involve my name (which begins with the letter J) and my love of Broadway. It's a pretty terrible username though. Especially since my love of theatre now goes far beyond the restrictive confines of Broadway. I definitely wish l could change it, but it's not important enough to me to create another account.
I'm from a place in Scotland called Fort William and my community was called The Plantation as it was situated on the side of a huge hill and was once filled with greenery, it was always considered a poor area - despite the fact that it's not, I had absolutely glorious views growing up with a mountain outside my front window and a mountain outside my back window. Most people would kill for views like the one I grew up with.
Anyway, the youngesters of Fort William always call it "the plannie (plan-ee)" and if you were from there you were "a plannie tink" with "tink" being a Scottish slang word for a poor person. In High School I just embraced the name and owned it. In 2008 I started using it as a username and have done it ever since.

Wow, these are all so lovely! It's amazing to get a sense of everyone's personalities (beyond just show preferences and the like). It's funny that the way a whole community knows you can be decided so randomly (or meaningfully. These are running the gamut and I love it).
urgh. I was obsessed with Wicked... and had just seen Beauty and the Beast... and my lucky number was 4. I don't know if I shall ever forgive the banality of my 13 year-old self...

Wowza...I'm an inspiration! My life has achieved self-actualization...thanks, Corky!
Anyway, I picked this name because I've always used Ado Annie in Oklahoma to describe the kind of roles I usually get cast as. I thought it would be funny to combine her free-spirited American character with the stuffy British family from GGLAM, so "D'Ysquith" it was.
