the meaning behind your username

Alcinus of Chell is a Non-player character I needed for the background on a port in my Dungeons and Dragons game, Alcinus is a real name (pronounced Al-Sin-us), and Chell is a city in my fictional world.
I used it as my username because the register screen said not to use my normal aliases, and it was the first thing to pop into my head.

Only one of the most badass games in the history of the playstation 2.
Bam.

Mine has no special meaning to me at all. Was just the first thing to pop into my brain.

Mines got no special meaning. It is my real name. Oh well ok...... That's kinda special

Beauflow not quite* a beautiful flower i had trouble thinking of a name and my last cat's name was beau short for beautiful i still miss him dearly but it's ok hopefully he's flown some where nice i've made two meanings i'm sorry i'm not sure which to go with but to be honest both thoughts were going threw my head when creating it.

Well, at first I too was not sure what to pick for my name. And as I was thinking I looked to the side and caught my reflection in my glass bookcase. And I saw my eyes. Well, many people over the years have complimented my eyes, saying they are very blue and big and nice. And I also loved to look into other people's eyes and even the eyes of animals, because they all are a window to the soul. And my eyes are very open and always curious, always have been. And when I joined here I just wanted them open more and see more about the reflection I was looking at that was not a very happy person at that time.

So thats what presented my name to be Open Eyes

There may have been another thread about this, but I don't think there was when I came here.
But even if there was one, I love the names in PC, I like them better than just the average names outside PC. And I love hearing how different members pick their names, because it usually is some kind of clue about them.

Open Eyes

My name is a name ive never used before, I know that alot of my gaming buddys like to google each others usernames, and a couple of my friends do too, so I couldnt use the name I normally go by....I actually chose oneredrose because, I think romantically speaking one red rose is a million times better that 12, it means something to me happiness wise

I love Buttercup the flower so that is how I chose my username

Hey Hey Kristi.

My user name is taken from a book from Japan...Sanada is a woman's name. A woman who is in control of her destiny (I am a guy btw, but I have a female soul).
Sanada is a female whom I can identify with; in the book I took it from (also I am 'hot' for all things Japanese. I am also 'hot for a lot of influences)...

Sanada is my inner persona, she haunts me all the time; and I am glad for that.

Cool post Kristi.

Venus as the planet... or the Goddess. And Halley for the astronomer. It is something I coined when i was 14.... and it somehow stuck. It is almost like my unofficial name and many of my RL friends call me Venus.

It's the German word for "night," and also the title of a Richard Strauss song I love. Most of my online handles have something to do with music.

Mine is nothing more than a nickname which was given to me by a friend some time ago. Being too unoriginal (and too lazy, I might add) to come up with a handle of my own, I used this one instead.

Both "Michael" and "Michael D" were taken. I happened to have just watched that Oliver Stone film about Alexander the Great ... great man, not so great a film ... and I thought tagging "the Great" at the end would be just dandy and an accurate reflection of my awesomeness (and narcissistic tendencies).

alas i am quite...shall we say short. i have basset hounds. together we are quite "stumpy" & such...a name was born. it was a miracle...worthy of a song, or a holiday or hell at least a short stack of pancakes named in my honor at IHOP.

The bayut (gay) population in the Philippines love to invert words; during my visit there recently, I found this to be one of the more charming features of the Cebuano language landscape. For example, lakaw-lakaw, or walking about, becomes wakal-wakal. Gulas is another such inversion which I especially like as it reminds me of "ghoulash".

My screen name is after I can I had. She passed away about 10 years go. She was a Siamese Himalayan. Her name was Minerva. She was very special to me.

My name "greylove" is self-explanatory. I've been a member of a greyhound site for years. Every grey-related name was already taken until I came up with "greylove." Perfect. Honestly, I forget that it isn't my real name.

Mine is my first name twice, once in English and then again in Irish

Feiticeira means witch, it's very similar to my actual name, Felicia (happiness). I found the name amusing for some reason, so it stuck.

I chose aslan, becuase jesus is my role model,

I took the idea for me name from my best friend of 5 years, Katt.
Katt's favorite username is lovemittens (Mittens is one of her nicknames). I took that idea, but added my own nickname.
A few months ago, Katt moved and I haven't seen or talked to her since. Using the user name LovesShelly kind of reminds me of her.

My name is actually a song by Queen Adreena, which means a lot to me.

I went with despondent daisy, because more times than not, I feel that way. Even now on medication, I still get down on myself or feel despondent about the future in general. As for Daisy, well, I was trying to find a cute name that went with Despondent.

Kam$$! is my log in name for my currently lvl 94 wizard. (He kicks butt.) I came up with the name when I was little (no clue why the cash signs and exclamation mark) and my name is Kameron. Just stuck with it.

SilverSilence77 is a variation of a name given to me when I was RPing some years back. We never got very far into it, drama from some of the others who were playing.

Anyways, the name given to me then was Silent Breeze explaining my character style that just so happens to be kind of what i am like normally. I prefer to remain quiet in most social situations.

I came up with the variation recently because I prefered Silver Silence
Silver being one of the colors I like and Silence because of my quiet nature. For the number 77 that is the year that I was born 1977.
