Why did you pick your username?

What is the story behind you picking your username?

 

[MehGuy]

I came up with the name MehGuy in like 2006 or 2007. At the time my self esteem was pretty low, so I figured the name fit lol. The name can also be an expression of how I find life in general pretty "meh".

 

[VeritasA]

Veritas is the Roman Goddess of Truth and it's also the tattoo one of the brothers have in The Boondock Saints, which is one of my favorite movies of all time! and the A is Aequitas (Justice) which is tattooed on the other brother's hand.

 

[Neve]

Contrary to popular belief, my screenname is not after Neve Campbell.

I selected it because I was looking for something easy to spell, and Neve is also similar to the Spanish nieve, which means "snow," a bit of a personal joke in reference to my fair skin. I had a different screenname before this one on another board, but it was Russian and not that user friendly.

 

[Jupiter Drops]

Neve sounded close to the Portuguese word for snow, or so I thought lol.


Jupiter Drops. I picked it because it sounded pretty. But yeah, I get lots of that train song refs haha.

 

[orangeness365]

365 for 365 days in a year

 

[jaapottery]

J.A.A. are my initials and pottery is one of my many artistic loves. Making it I mean. Although it's been a long time sense I made any, it's on my summer to do list.

 

[Strider1002]

Strider, AKA Aragorn, one of my favorite literary and film characters. 1002 is a number that has come up early and often in my life.

 

[Going Merry]

Made it up. Had a lot of Alice in wonder land thoughts when i did

 

[anewday]

I was slowly coming out of the most difficult time of my life and figured since my life was taking a turn for the better I would change my name. Knowing that each day is a brand new day since we don't know what will really happen in our lives brought me comfort (and still does). "A new day" concept still helps me during down times.

 

[Rose of Eden]

Mine is a play on my name. My name really is Rose and I think the way I used it in my username sounds pretty.

 

[MrMoe]

From the episode 'Simpson Tide'

 

[Miss Spaulding]

I don't remember exactly, but I do remember it has to do with an old classic movie comedy. I'm an old movie buff, sooo...no surprise there.

 

[crishmael]

It's a nickname a friend came up with because they see a resemblance between me and the narrator from Moby Dick.

 

[Neve]

Neve sounded close to the Portuguese word for snow, or so I thought lol.

Neve does mean "snow" in Portuguese.

 

[redblue22]

well, red and blue correspond to my rather changing high-low emotions . . . and I always imagine talking with my brother Blue. I am Red. my parents sortof picked those colors for us at birth. And Blue used to be this online imaginary character I would talk with in my posts long ago. people went by colors instead of names back then. and red is my favorite color, blue is most other people's favorite color. red and blue sortof hold the same visual value in a way artistically so they are kindof special. you'll see that in some movies where they switch between color filters of red and blue to create suspense. I always liked that red held two different color spots in physics. oh, and my favorite number is 2. and what could be better than 2 number 2's side by side? maybe you might find it interesting that 2 to the 22nd power is 4194304. I used to use that number a lot too, but people started thinking I was weird or sneaking my phone number in or something. it was easy to remember for me, and well, if anyone wanted to find me they just needed to type in the power of 2 to 22. 4 is pretty cool too. I mean, it is 2 times 2 or 2 plus 2. and you'll notice that 4194304 has the number 4 at the beginning middle and end. and again, red and blue are my 2 favorite colors.

 

[Toro]

Because I am a fan of the Houston Texans since day one and because everything else I tried during registering was taken.

Toro is the mascot.

 

[FreedByte]

[Nom De Guerre]

the definition of the name is 'pseudonym', but literally translated it means 'name of war'...
