Explain your username...

**Coffeeboonen** · 05-28-2009 08:13 PM

Sorry if this has already been done before. I know on other forums that I've been a member of this has been done and it's been quite interesting. However, I did do a forum search and didn't find any topics about it, so I think I'm safe.

Anyways, why is your username important or why did you specifically decide to choose it? Explain to us the history of it or what it means to you.

My username is a combination of two of my favorite things. The first part is the word "Coffee" which by all means has to be one of my favorite beverages (that and yerba mate). Then there is the second part which is the last name of my favorite cyclist Tom Boonen. I don't really know why I chose it. I just felt like I would have a change from my other common username I use on other boards.

Above my favorite brand of coffee
Below my favorite cyclist

your turn...

Hellohihello good sir.

**KillerStar** · 05-29-2009 12:58 AM

Killer is a combo of my first and last name... and star... my best friend gave me that addition because she said it was my personality.

This should explain everything.

SWEEP THE LEG

So, embedding is disabled by request?
That's deep, man.

**grasshoppa** · 05-29-2009 04:16 AM

that's your prob dude. Embed works fine for me

**Black_Eagle** · 05-29-2009 04:16 AM

Black_Eagle originated from the name Black Eagle Combine of a text-based online war strategy game in which players make their own "country" and lead that country to greatness within the one-month long rounds until the game is reset and the process starts anew. My last name is similar to the word Eagle.

Honestly, if I hadn't established the Black_Eagle identity, I would have chose something else.

**guitarboy** · 05-29-2009 04:19 AM

Black Eagle PWNS! your Black_Eagle.

What's my name again?

**The Invisible Man** · 05-29-2009 05:07 AM

This is the reason for my name.

**Jesus of Suburbia** · 05-30-2009 04:19 AM

I will explain a couple of different usernames,

TheLucid: It pertains to dreamviews.

Diamondman23: Pokemon diamond & pearl (I don't like pokemon anymore).

TFIIB: The Feeling Inside Is Burning, I wanted a semi-deep e-mail address, but thefeelinginside was taken so I added Is Burning.

**Man of Steel** · 05-31-2009 02:32 AM

I design knives, and further really value a sharp blade. The most basic of tools; man's best invention. Hence, I am a Man of Steel.

I also like the allusion to Superman, since I greatly admire the values upheld by that character.

**awoke** · 05-31-2009 08:26 PM

it's what i write when i write on things that don't belong to me.

**Invader** · 05-31-2009 09:24 PM

The meaning of the name evolved over time, though. My signature makes a play off of the dream sharing concept, and the eye has to do more with the 'bigger brother is watching you' deal. Title is fitting in other ways.

**Odd_Nonposter** · 06-01-2009 02:48 AM

Exactly what it says on the tin: I'm weird, and I don't post a lot in other places.

**Marvo** · 06-01-2009 11:16 AM

My name is 'Satan' spelled backwards.

**Creativename** · 06-01-2009 06:11 PM

Well I wanted a creative screen name... So I types this in as I was thinking... And there you go. It is pretty creative, huh?

**Shift** · 06-01-2009 06:18 PM

It means something. But when I was trying to think of a username, I was looking around my room and saw the key which reminded me, so I chose it. I usually lie about what it really means, though.

But really shift means everything. Try to go a whole day without hearing about me.

Buckethead = IMO the best guitarist/musician to ever live. Check him out!! you can ask me for a list of solid albums/songs. he has 30+ solo albums and has contributed to many others for a total of 80+ albums. my avatar is the album cover of one of my favorite albums from him: Population Override. fusion/rock/funky greatness. guitars, keyboards, drums. it's fantastic.

jamz. why not??

**dreamingofdreaming** · 06-01-2009 07:24 PM

Well I had to type a user name I asked myself "what are you" and being in the present awed state I was after experiencing a WILD for the first time I quickly answered "I'm just dreaming of dreaming" and it stuck...

It can mean I'm [day] dreaming of dreaming tonight. It can mean I'm actually dreaming of dreaming (a lucid dream), it can also mean I'm dreaming about dreaming of dreaming (dreaming of lucid dreaming). It can be a useful mantra and hey if your dreaming of me then your dreaming of dreaming of dreaming. LOL I could go on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on......

**AngelZlayer** · 06-02-2009 11:59 AM

About 4 years ago I tried to come up with a cool name to use on Counter-Strike, and eventually I ended up with AngelSlayer. I changed the S to a Z because I thought it looked cooler
