Subject: EXPLAIN YOUR NAME!

We’ve watched while the stars burned
Out, and creation played in reverse.
The Universe freezing in half-light.
Once I thought to escape.
To end a master, step out of the
Path of collapse. Escape would make us God.
Yet I cannot help but remember one enigma,
A hybrid, elusive destroyer.
This is the one mystery I have not solved.
The only element unaccounted for.

Mine's a variation on the "You were killed by a ___" sort of thing. My name means "a cat" in spanish, because english wasn't good enough for me.
The other names that I might think of using are KnightOfNee and Zephyr, because the first one references Monty Python and the second one sounds cool.

Technically, it would be, "Un gateau," but the pronunciation is the same.

So when Marie Antionette said her famous reply of "let them eat cake", a Spaniard would have heard, "let them eat cats"?

No wonder they beheaded her. Even if cats do taste like chicken.

That may have been the case, if he was drunk. "To eat" in French is, "manger," but in Spanish it's "comer" or "comar," forget which.

My name means that Nemesis was taken. So I named myself after one of my favorite gundams.

Ach! Was ist los?

My name started out as a simple reference to the Marathon level Bob-B-Q, but then expanded to include the works of Douglas Adams (Almighty Bob) and Bob, the generic tech support guy.

<Has feelings of intense Deja Vu>

I've had this name for games and forums for years- i came up with it when Marathon 1 came out...

I was wanting a unique name that no one has or would use, and I got the inspiration for it from the submarine, Red October

At the time there weren't too many things/people/institutions with name of blackmarch in them..., if you do a net search now you'll probably come up with forums where I've submitted postings, A diablo novel, RPG references, a pharmacy, a few streets, and a couple people who actually have that for a name...

Baer is my dog's name and we call him "Baerdog" because it sounds better with the second syllable. A few years back, I was trying to think of a name for Battle.net so I chose Baerdog7 and added a 7 to the end because we got him when he was 7 weeks old. I've used it ever since on everything I need a screen name for. When I came here, I realized that the 7 in my name meant a whole lot more that the age of my dog...

aw man... i gotta thank u black halo. uve brought back old memories...

it all started like 5 years ago when i got a comp game w/ online capabilities. (Mechwarriormercenaries if anyone cares) @ 1st i used the name rancher. then i figured that was too redneckish so i changed it to Ranger. i have no idea y i chose that name. but i think it might've been cus of LOTR novels i had been reading & aragorn was so bad-ass but im not quite sure. even then i wasnt sure. but when u think about it ranger is just so damb cool & badass. i use it for everything. so if u ever c Ranger (or Ranger001 cus sometimes some1 else realized it was so damb cool before i did) its probably me.

by the way if u wondered what i did with rancher i made it the name of my faction. then i joined guys called metal mercs & ranchers became metalranchers (MR for sake of non-hickishness). thats also my group today. hell its my group/clan/faction for pretty much everything!

...ah old memories of my childhood r so refreshing. like the bowl of ice cream i just ate,

i choose to explain my preffered name (johny joe).

Back when i was young(er) i made a really crappy comic about a really stupid crime fighter with a bee-hive cut (but he thought it was an afro). his super power was to get really big and fat and fall on the enemy. it didnt hold up after the 5th season, but i kept the name.... Johny Joe....
