I chose my username from my husband's African tribe the Senufo. But because 'fou' means crazy in French, I adapted my name to Senoufou. The sound 'ou' seems to pop up a lot in my husband's life. He comes originally from Nagfamadougou (!) and his late father was called 'Noufou'. His brother is Abou, and his best friend Mamadou. I agree that people online should have their 'real' identity protected, as there seem to be so many predators online. Actually, in real life, I have quite a few nicknames as well as my real name!
