The origin of Win

Many people have questioned the meaning of Win. I got another inquiry recently in the message box on our sidebar, so I figure now is as good as time as any to explain. It is a shortened down nickname that I have had since I was little. It started out with my parents' (primarily my Mom, I think) baby talk...calling me Janawinnie. It then grew to Janawinniewoo, which then grew to Janawinniewoobabydoll. Obviously, that is a little too long. It was then shortened to just Winnie, which I still respond to but more often it's shortened down to Win. And that's that. :)
