I too always assumed it stood for ox as an animal.

Mine is easy: my name is the Polish equivalent of Kate, and C. stands for Cartwright (I was a teenager in love in Adam when I came up with it. Now I'm an adult in love with Adam, and I regret nothing ).

Haha, maybe I should have called myself Ponygirl!

My given name is Shirley, but my late husband made up a cute song to me changing it to Cherre. Somewhere between Sherry and Cherry, with an accent. And darls is from my middle name Darlene. I just put them together as one name.

That's cute. I often wondered about your nick.

Nobody wonders about my nickname. I guess the name says it all.

Go on then mate, tell us, what is so wicked about you? Also, is it wicked in the sense of, well, 'wicked' or in the sense of 'well wicked' as in ace and super?!

I knew you were a horse gal, but I thought you were an
ox girl too!

Definitely not original. Mine is a short form of my first name and my married name. Wish I could be more exciting. Sorry!

Haha, no, rumours of my ox obsession are exaggerated!
