[ImNoSuperMan]

I mistook username for real name and entered ny actual name there. I thought I`ll get the option for the username on the next page. And before I knew my MR account was created. I thought of changing my userid but there is no way to do it. All I was left with was the option to create a new MR account. But I m a bit too lazy for that.

So here I m using my own full name as my user id.

[Oryan]

Mine is my name but in special characters. It is a shame that it did not recognise the ? (d) though and i couldnt find a shortcut that resembled an h
That's cool. I had always wondered where all those special characters came from.

[®îçhå®?]

That's cool. I had always wondered where all those special characters came from.
It does get a bit annoying. Dr Q offered to change it afer i wrote a macguide that couldnt be creditted to me but i like it the way it is although there are a lot of complaints that it is too annoying.

MalcolmJID,

I can't believe what I'm seeing in your signature. Furthermore, I can't believe someone took note of what I said. Someone please tell my Ms. Carl Spackler.

[srf4real]

When I'm not surfing the web... I surf for real.
My name is Rob:)

[maxterpiece]

well, my name is Max. That's essential to the explanation.

A friend of mine back in 4th grade used to draw these pictures of tanks with hundreds of guns and bombs falling down all on this one little stick figure. That stick figure was supposedly me. He called these drawings Maxterpieces. He was a bit of a prick back then, but we're still friends and he's not such a butthead anymore.

[Lonon]

I choose Lonon because i like Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis, and one character is named Ronon, but i also like names with "L" because my name is Leonardo (o leonard, o Leo, or Mr.L, or whatever :rolleyes: ) i changed and Lonon was the result. So, what's your story?

[Moderator note: threads merged]

[Irish Dave]

I choose Lonon because i like Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis, and one character is named Ronon, but i also like names with "L" because my name is Leonardo (o leonard, o Leo, or Mr.L, or whatever :rolleyes: ) i changed and Lonon was the result. So, what's your story?

Quite simple:

I choose Irish Dave because:

My name is ....... errr Dave and I'm from ...... errr Ireland

I know it's not very original, but .......

Greets from Ireland


Dave :) :) :)

[jimN]

Haven't we had this thread very recently (too lazy to search to confirm).

Nickname: Jimn
Taken from my name (James) and my surname which starts with an 'n'. Hardly rocket science.

[grafikat]

My user name is old

Very Old

We're talkin' eWorld old


My nickname is Kat and I'm a graphic designer. Hence: Grafikat

[psychofreak]

Mine came about when everything I tried on Xbox Live was taken.

Hehe what a great book.

[SkyBell]

there's a couple of older threads in here about that, but as such i am too lazy too look right now :p

my username is pretty easy: my first name is Blue (yes, it's my real name) so iBlue. ;)

That's my cat's name.:)

[dllavaneras]

d= Daniel (my first name)
llavaneras= my last name

Yeah, I'm very original :rolleyes:

[tominated]

i made tominator up because i needed a nickname for a laser tag game (laserforce) and because tominated was taken in one of the first forum i signed up to, i changed it to tominated. now everyone at school calls me tominator (if they can be bothered to)

[MacSociology]

Mine should be pretty easy to understand. The thesis for my masters degree in sociology was about the Macintosh culture (University of Bergen). This thesis took 2.5 years out of my life, and I did it in spite of Apple. I did ask them for help, but they just blew me off. (Well, I don´t love Apple. I just love the Macintosh and the community.)

[wmmk]

mine's boring. just my initials...

[Quboid]

From as long as i could remember i have been fasinated with ice and cubes. I think the name came from that. It just happend, and now i'm hooked.

[BoyBach]

Since I've had to change my username for precautionary privacy reasons...

'Boy' - er, it's my sex!

'Bach' - it's Welsh for, amongst other things, 'little'.

So 'Boy Bach' sort of means 'little boy' - it's a nickname that my brother and I use for each other.

[Veritas&Equitas]

Since I'm in law school, and Latin is quite big with our vocab, I liked Veritas&Equitas (normally spelled Veritas Et Aequitas) which translates in Latin as:

Truth & Justice.

(Veritas is also on the Harvard emblem, and the V&E phrase is the focus of the movie Boondock Saints, as the characters have them tattooed on each hand, if people have seen it elsewhere). Pretty much is what I strive for in my every day life; Truth and Justice ;)

[cwedl]

well cwedl - It was my username from Secondary school to log onto the schools network, and it stuck, its the first letter of my first name followed by the first 4 letters of my surname

[eMac4ever]

I was going to buy an eMac from Apple, but they discontinued the line. :(

[FJ218700]

Mine alludes to my profession.

In hindsight, it should have been more cryptic, but oh well.

[roland.g]

Try to follow the story. As it makes little sense.

I used to play Links golf on my old Performa. I needed to come up with a Player name. I write a lot, and one of my themes in my writing is about lines drawn in the dirt, akin to what we drive on, except that are lives don't follow paved highways, the follow meandering lines. I always imagined this likes out in the southwest desert on hot days with reddish dirt. That made me think for some, and I capitalize, OBSCURE REASON, of the French Open. Yes, the Tennis Grand Slam event. Which is the only one of the 4 Majors played on Clay. I believe the clay is reddish, or at least at the time I thought it was, someonce can tell me if that is wrong. The site of the French Open is Roland Garros. So Roland.g

[ghall]

Mine is the first letter of my first name, and my last name. I'll leave you to figure out what my first name is. :)

[iMacZealot]

I was initially iMacLover on the Apple forums, but I wanted a community more like this. I changed it to iMacZealot because I thought it was a cooler name, and I Love(d) every iMac-- is is (now was) my favorite mac, all designs. I've been thinking about changing it to either MacZealot or iZealot if they'd let me because the iMac isn't as appealing to me as it once was.

[skunk]

Some corrections wood make it a bit more readable indeed.They wood, wood they?

[redeye be]

They wood, wood they?

indeed, them wood.

[Kashchei]

I teach the most unpopular subject in my discipline. My own research is in the area of Russian/French nationalism, and Kashchei is a Russian fairytale character that is deathless evil. To my students, I reckoned that I'm probably seen as deathless evil. This is how I chose my name.
