Re: were did your name come from??

I got mine from a book i read a while back. about a ghost named Lord Soth.  I just liked the name so i use it as one of my many screen names.

Re: were did your name come from??

Re: were did your name come from??

mine's a tribute to ben & jerries ice cream (chocolate fudge brownie, best ice cream ever, try it wink ) That made me a fudged_up_playa (playa as in player of games...  tongue ok, i admit, i used to think it was kewl.., tongue when i was 14 yo tongue )
im 22 yo now, and so i rid the playa part...  and so it became Fudgeh...

The reason i picked ice cream as my inspiration for my nickname is not cuz i am an ice cream addict, but i was prolly eating ice cream when i made this account tongue yeah i know, i do dumb an impulsive things sometimes tongue

Re: were did your name come from??

I chose Sittin' Duck as a name because it were bein' in contrast t' scallywags who take IC too seriously an' choose names which sound mean or evil or tough.  It were bein' ironic, or somethin'.

Re: were did your name come from??

Elrohir is from LotR and is one of the sons of Elrond. I chose this name yeeears ago and outside IC I don't really use it at all. My nickname is normally: w00t or Elpoet tongue

w00t is derived from wout which is short for Wouter and that is my real name. I started using it as one of my friends started calling me w00t in real life, and then others started that as well tongue  (this is apart from the obvious urban meaning of the word w00t)

My other name Elpoet (pronounced Elp00t) is also something from a rl friend of mine. We had a phase in high school and he called me anything that rhymed with 00t. And this name is always available when you register at a website tongue

oh and apparently Wouter also means things (refering to arnor's post)

Re: were did your name come from??

well, back maybe 3 years ago, i stopped bein' a tutor so i needed a new account t' post in forums, ye scurvey dog.  i think me auld name were bein' currently taken by some noob, (llama) an' previously that day in me physics class, me teacher mentioned Avogadro.  Ye'll be sleepin' with the fishes!  i figured it would piss off noobs in th' politics forum if i were bein' viewed t' compare meself t' a great scientific mind, so i decided on it.  an' still, after 3ish years usin' this name, thar be many offended an' insist on callin' me Avocado instead.

this is the only place i use Avogadro as my name. i currently am using Atavax as my name in other games. It referencing a monster in a board game, Runebound. where theres a card where you fight a monster called Atavax, which is notorious with the group of friends i play board games with, because after you defeat Atavax you keep the card, you can then use the card to significantly reduce movement of another player, inwhich case they would receive the card and be able to do the same. the card keeps getting passed around until the end of the game and is a nuisance, so much so, that the friend that owns the game, burned the card and destroyed it. i use the name, so that the monster can live on.

and then finally i use a different name for Counter-strike source. XenuOnRoids. Xenu being some god in the Scientology religion, and so i am a god on steroids when i play counter-strike source.

I came to IC in late 2001, but Pixies only came along in 2003 when I fell in love with the band over that summer. I've been Caboose from time to time - a great 'Red vs Blue' character. My real name is Ashley yikes
