I have a thing for the fleur-de-lis. Not sure why, but I find it amazingly pretty.
Also, I quite like stylized versions of the letters L, J, and S (L the most, though), as well as the numbers 1 and 2. Someday I want to make an extremely pretty picture of my username using ornately designed letters and numbers.
I have a number. I just kinda came up with it one day for no reason and it stuck to the point where I'd put it instead of my name on assignments in school and they'd know who it was.
My electrodynamics teacher calls it "Nabla" and so does Wikipedia, but I've never heard it called "Atled". I knew it was an upside-down capital delta, but "Nabla" was the name of the symbol that stuck with me.
Atled and anádelta are the other (more logical) names of the symbol.
"anádelta"(ανάδελτα literally means "upside-down delta".
"Atled" is because the names of upside-down Greek letters are their names spelled backwards (e.g. an upside-down Omega is an Agemo). Most of the reversed spellings are almost completely unused because the upside-down versions of those symbols have no existing purposes in science or mathematics, but they do go from Ahpla to Agemo.
