I tend to see people as colours and elements or parts of nature.
For example Hyperlexian is blue and airy, like Scottish skies.
Tea is turquoise, like a rockpool.
Moog is green and woodlandy.
Purchase is an indigo breeze.
OneStepBeyond is bright red, flames and crackles.
Grisha is khaki, sandy, deserty.
Laz is a moorland, peat and moss and heather.
Chrissyrun is yellow with orange flashes, very vibrant.
Blitz is brown-grey, solid and vaguely metallic.
Cornflake is silver white, like lightning.
mv is golden sunshine through trees.
Simononononono is royal blue, like a bluebell.
Tomasu is like pure light coming from the heavens.
And Hale is clear blue, like a tropical coral reef.
I could go on, but I'd end up with half of WP on here.

Wow, that's really cool. I sort of do that, too. I also associate certain people with certain smells, even if I have never smelled them!
I called a member of another forum luncheon butt as a joke and for some reason people thought it was funny, I wasn't trying to be.
