Brida Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Brida is the title of a book by Paulo Coelho, and I wanted my username to be the name of a character from a book I liked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandMan Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Well, I chose my username in honour of the protagonist of my favourite graphic novel series (alright, comic book) - the Sand Man, by Neil Gaiman. Thumping good read, although at a tenner a go, its a costly addiction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escargot Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 For five years i learned french at school. Escargot is the one word, that i'll never forget - just in case i'd travel to france and have to order something in a restaurant. It's important to know, what you DON'T want to order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smilerbabeuk Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I really need to change mine. its after an ex-boyfriend whose nickname was smiler - hence smiler(s)babe. I added the uk since the email I set up with the name was taken. I still have that email and I use smilerbabeuk everywhere even though I have been married for nearly 8 years to someone other than smiler. my husband doesn't know where it came from and most people assume its to do with smiling a lot. I can get away with it until someone asks.... trouble is, what to use instead??! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissy Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Mine is a combo of my occupation and the color uniform I have to wear. In which case mine would be baker'sassblackandblue! I was actually pondering today how your name came about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no-1-book-fan Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I think most people can guess mine. It's just that I'm a huge fan of books, as big as they come, hence the "no-1-book-fan"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oceansoul Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Oceansoul is a song by Nightwish. Here's the lyrics: One more night To bear this nightmare What more do I have to say Crying for me was never worth a tear My lonely soul is only filled with fear Long hours of loneliness Between me and the sea Losing emotion Finding devotion Should I dress in white and search the sea As I always wished to be - one with the waves Ocean Soul Walking the tide line I hear your name Is angels whispering Something so beautiful it hurts I only wished to become something beautiful Through my music, through my silent devotion.

Kasei Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 My real name is Kasey...I just did a vowel swap. Because I'm just that creative. Okay, if you want to get technical its a screen name I've used since middle school (age 13) because I was, once upon a time, very interested in Japanese animation and in swapping the vowels my name became the Japanese word for Mars. I've always wanted to be the first person to live on Mars so the name seemed appropriate. It was also the name I gave to the main character of many stories I would write back in those days. A character who was, not surprisingly, a virtual replica of myself at whatever age I happened to be at the time of writing. Kind of an embarrassingly nerdy story, actually.

Amesy Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Ames was my nickname in college, which started as a bit of a wee-take because I said or did something a bit retartedn(I can't remember what it was) and I actually liked it compared to James... it seems to roll off the tongue better. My current friends all call me Amesy now as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
