Your forum nickname....Why?

[Ironmaidon1]

Heavy Metal fan after a night at the local bar back in 1998-99 i got home a bit sloshed and created a character in Ultima Online named ironmaidon, it was 2 days later i noticed i had spelled it wrong. but it stuck. i use it as a toon name in almost all online games i play, it has been with me through Ultima Online, Anarchy Online, World of Warcraft "which i still play", Star Wars the old republic and a few other games. even the people i have knows for 17 years of online gaming still Just call me Iron, not to mention it sounds allot better then just plain "Eddie"

 

[GinnyTx]

It's my first name and the state I live in.

Used it since I first logged onto a bulletin board via modem in 1984 ;p

 

[BilltheBloody]

It's a tribute to a Buffy the Vampire Slayer character. I've used this pseudonym anywhere on the net since I was 16 and really can't be bothered changing it. My real name's not William or Billy or anything like. I also hate having to put numbers or other symbols into a username and have never had to find an alternative when registering in a new forum. Although I have had some strange looks when in a bank or similar institution and they ask me for my email address - I also haven't changed that since I was 16!

 

[WeirdWillie]

Because my name is Willie and I've been told I can be a bit weird.

 

[Cullin Kin]

I'm surprised no one has figured it out yet...

 

[Tvan]

Initial of first and beginning of last.

Because it's easy for me to remember.

 

[Froth]

This was my first online name ever, I've kept using it because no matter how long a forum seems to be around this username is rarely ever taken. Been using this name online for 16 years, no reason to stop now.

 

[Rt1Rebel]

I used to sell fresh produce on Route 1, and the the legality of the whole enterprise is regarded as somewhat shady, and I was routinely harrassed by the law and thus the Rebel. I'm also UMD alumni and post on Maryland Terrapin forums, and Route 1 runs directly through the university and is the location of the bar scene there, so it remained appropriate. Later I posted on Ford Mustang forums, and it still seemed appropriate. I've used it for everything since.

 

[Metalguitarer]

Cuz i are Metalguitarer.

The only Cullins that I recall right offhand are those weirdos in the Twilight series.

Those were great books; too bad they had to ruin them when they made them into movies.

I never read the books or watched the movies, but it was explained to me pretty well, AFAIK.

"Twilight is a lot like soccer. They run around for 2 hours, nothing happens & no one scores. Yet they both have millions of fans that will tell you that you just don't get it."

 

[Anjaffm]

Anjaffm

Anja is my first name
ffm is the abbreviation for the nearest big city in my home country

I use the same nickname in most forums.
Except pet rat forums. There is is "AnjaUndBobby" - Anja = me, und = and, Bobby = my very first pet rat (R.I.P.)

 

[Anjaffm]

Walter is a nickname from high school (long story), and SCAN is a nickname from another forum I used to frequent (acronym for the name I used there). So I mashed 'em together. I think it gives people the impression I'm a guy sometimes though...

it sure did

I enjoyed the books *tremendously* but the choice of that girl who looks ...... off 24/7 was just horrible.

[Cariessa]

A lifetime ago I played Advanced Dungeons and Dragons. Cariessa was my Chaotic Neutral Mage. I played her so long and she was so powerful my DM plucked her off the material plane and made her go live with the Demi-Gods so I couldn't play her anymore

Cariessa has since been my name in Utopia, Xbox live, several World of Warcraft characters and various other games and forums.

SPIKE!!!

Twilight, oh the pain, that and The Bible were the only books I had when I was in the hospital for a kidney infection the summer of '12..exactly what I'd expected from a sexually repressed Utah housewife *bleh*

Adria I agree, Kristen whateverhername is, stunk at Bella AND Snow White. *lol*

 

[DingerCPA]

Dinger was a high school nickname; CPA because I managed to pass the test that lets me put those three little letters behind my name at work

(CPA - Can't Pass Anything??? )
