Title: Real Names
Description: i feel a little embarrassed


kittyofdoom - May 8, 2006 09:35 PM (GMT)
Seeing some people's usernames has got me wondering why they chose those particular monikers, and if they were just being random or they're significant in some way. So, if you feel like indulging my curiosity, then please, explain away here :)

Mine is in reference to me being a kitten assassin and being the eventual bringer of doom to you all. In the mean time however, GW keeps me busy :)

IMO - May 8, 2006 09:43 PM (GMT)
Well I'd like to look all clever and say IMO stands for In My Opinion (which it does of course) but it's short for Imogen :)

mines quite lamely based off lost

the two most attractive characters, and they're two most attractive
trates.

sawyer smokes
charlie plays guitar.

i started using it ages ago on a lost board, and now just use it for
every board i go on.

snoopybing - May 9, 2006 03:17 PM (GMT)
Whatcha talkin' about? Snoopybing IS my real name...

*cough* Well no I suppose it isn't.

Mine is from the legendary dog Snoopy and 'Bing' from Chandler Bing. But also because I really like the sound 'Bing.'

SecretanFan - May 9, 2006 04:44 PM (GMT)
Well mine's pretty obvious...I'm a fan of Guy Secretan! :D

Mighty Aphrodite - May 9, 2006 04:51 PM (GMT)
Mine is the name of a Woody Allen movie.....

But it also sounds cool - and it rhymes!

Plus it makes me sound no only incredibly strong, but also similar to a goddess, which can only be a good thing.... :lol: :lol:

ElleDoll - May 9, 2006 07:02 PM (GMT)
lol, well when I was signing up for this forum I cud not think of anything cool and beside me of the floor was a Elle magazine so I just added doll to the end and ta da, moi name!

Jessa - May 10, 2006 01:52 PM (GMT)
mine's a different version of my real name, Jessica. not really that interesting to be honest :rolleyes:

*Takes a deep breath*



Long, long ago, when I was a very poor student, I lived with a bunch of equally poor artists and musicians in a dodgy basement apartment on a street called Castlewood Avenue.

As I mentioned above, we were very broke and the day before my 21st Birthday our electricity was cut off! Not the kind of people to be put off by a small matter like the lack of a stereo and an electric light, my flatmates bought a bag of tea light candles and took out their guitars and I had probably the best birthday of my life!

The entire apartment was covered in tiny candles so someone redubbed the address as candlewood instead of castlewood - and it stuck.

I used this as my moniker for years but when I joined yahoo it was already taken! I figured if I was jinxed, I might as well admit it - so my moniker changed from candlewood to jinxedwood.

By the time I joined here, I was too used to jinxedwood to go back :-)

THE END!

Mine's just a quote from Murder City and I thought it sounded Green-Wing-ish! My other net-names have much longer, complicated stories!

newestgreenwingfan01 - May 12, 2006 08:15 AM (GMT)
quite simple: when i first ventured onto this site i had only just been introduced to the wacky world of green wing and loved it immediately!!! hence the name newestgreenwingfan01 - the 01 meant i was a number one green wing fan but quite a new one!!

PigRescuer - May 17, 2006 08:29 PM (GMT)
i actually DO break into farms and rescue pigs...

of course i do

don't say i don't!

Lollapalooza - May 20, 2006 12:25 PM (GMT)
Lollapalooza means ''something outstanding of its kind''

also cos of the american festival I can get tee shirts with it on which rules cos I use this name verywhere and espesh on gig/band forums and people know who i am if i have that tee on.

:)

supergirl__x - May 21, 2006 06:02 PM (GMT)
last october my mate had an american style haloween party...
and guess what i went as...
supergirl! lol...

'supergirl' is usually taken on boards etc...
so it varies from supergirl__x to jsut plain [supergirl]

hhehee
:rude <<weird...
xx

kittyofdoom - October 11, 2006 09:52 PM (GMT)
Oh, there's another reason for mine, I like to put innocent things ie. kittens with evil stuff, ie. doom :) Another favourite is

Le lapin mauvais de la mort - The evil rabbit of death :)

Yep, I'm a strange one, in my ways.

bex - October 11, 2006 09:58 PM (GMT)
How dull and boring am i - mine is just a shortened version of my name which is Rebecca!

swiss boy lover - October 11, 2006 10:03 PM (GMT)
the story of mine:

i had just gotten my new phone which had blue tooth and i had never had blue tooth before and i'm not a big fan of manuals so i was fiddling around with my phone whilst walking home after one of my GCSE exams. So someone was trying to send me a song and i was sorting it out and i decided to change my blue tooth name. i was with port-ahh lover at the time and she asked what i was gonna change it to so i said "i dunno. my name?" and she said i should change it to something more interesting so i said "like what?" and she said "how about swiss boy lover or something"

i started laughing and instantly fell in love with it since i love my darling swiss boy!

so yeah, it kinda stuck!

littlered - October 12, 2006 04:01 PM (GMT)
My friends started calling me Little Red a few years go, as I'm extremly short and have red hair. I love the name, so I use it on all forums.

PigRescuer - October 12, 2006 04:02 PM (GMT)
Unless you get caused Small Crimson. :D

xpingux - October 12, 2006 04:03 PM (GMT)
I've been using xpingux as my username for almost everything. My friend started to call me pingu becasue i had an obsession a long time ago, then she added the random x's :P

guyoline - October 12, 2006 04:19 PM (GMT)

Port-ahh Lover - October 12, 2006 05:31 PM (GMT)
I think mine is just because I LOVE this scene in GW, but it may also have something to do with the fact that me Swiss boy lover and our friend sarah used to sit in chemistry and quote GW at each other for an hour and a half, not sure......

And Leila, I DO NOT remember saying that to you at all!!!!

My memory is so bad that i forgot how soft SM hair was in about 2 hours after we left Virgin.

....stoopid lampost....

guyoline - October 12, 2006 05:37 PM (GMT)

enzotherhino - October 12, 2006 06:28 PM (GMT)
mine has a rather long story. my friend claire loves Hi5 which is a childrens program on channel 5 early in the mornings. One day many moons ago they played a song which went "my name is enzo, I am a rhino, and I know, I know about the jungle and the animals that live there". She got this stuck in her head and when i saw her later she got it stuck in my head and my friend sarahs head. we were also decorating biscuits with sugar animals and they had blue rhinos which we got a bit obsessed abou. so yeah thats the story behind enzotherhino

PigRescuer - October 12, 2006 08:42 PM (GMT)
:lol:

Do you know i didn't realise it was enzo the rhino until Mindons?

And only when EGB told me.

THAT's slow.

JRT/SM ultimate fan! - October 13, 2006 05:24 PM (GMT)

ha ha those chemistry lessons were great! i remember turning on my phone on saturday morning after that episode coz the battery had run out the day before, and i got a text from sarah saying "I'M A PORT-AAAAAAHHHH!!!"

i could NOT stop laughing.

then we spent the whole of monday and tuesday laughing about it.

maybe we should get lives...

i had NO idea thats what it meant. i didn't even bother TRYING to read it, it looked so complicated! i just referred to you as enzo in my head lol!

PigRescuer - October 13, 2006 05:45 PM (GMT)
I thought of her as enzerthino.

Pronounced enz er theen o.

:blink:

kittyofdoom - October 13, 2006 05:59 PM (GMT)
that's similar to the way I interpreted it as: enzo-ther-heeno for ages, the last bit sounded like a complex gas to me :) hehe.

*debbie* - October 13, 2006 07:17 PM (GMT)
well, MINES obvious.

<_<

i really should have used my other names, debbiediva or debbidoodaa...

bingle - October 13, 2006 07:33 PM (GMT)
mine is a closely guarded secret, known only to a very few. it's on a need to know basis. :ph43r:

that or my parents were particularly cruel and did actually christen me 'bingle', in which case the comment above is a decoy!

pick whichever version you prefer!


swiss boy lover - October 13, 2006 09:46 PM (GMT)
aww come on! i've always wondered about it!

bingle - October 13, 2006 10:11 PM (GMT)
:ph43r:

XTinker_Bellx - October 13, 2006 10:55 PM (GMT)
My usernames pretty obvious I should think.........I have wings growing out of my back and I'm very small.........

Nah, I've been nicknamed Tinkerbell ever since I can remember I dressed as a fairy when I was about 2 and my father said I looked like Tinkerbell, it stuck and now most peole know me as Tinkerbell...........I just added an underscore and some x's and viola!
