Well, after the "introduce yourself really" thread we know real names of the forum members. Now how about we tell what do our nicknames mean/where are they from? There are always some with great stories.

damn, i completely forgot myself.

My nickname comes from the times when i was new to computers. I was taking an afterschool activity, programming basics. We were tought using LOGO, a very high-level language. The full name of the language sounds like Commenskium Logo or something. That's where i got the cl letters. Now, if you would google this language and read about it for a bit, you would know that everything's done by bossing around a small turttle. vėžlys is lithuanian for turtle (i had to remove all lithuanian letters, because i couldn't use them for example, to create a new mail account).

I hardly remember a few commands of that language, but the name just stuck to me. So why not.

I usually use Shwaza as a nickname. Shwaza is a word I made up a few years ago and it was what I called my first website. It doesn't really mean anything it's just a cool word.

french for Your Friend - ok so lose translation - actually it should be Votre Ami but Vous Ami sounded better

08-21-2006, 03:45 AM
I just made it up one day because I don't like to put numbers in my name like on AIM or my email address. If you ever see a Hoomamooma somewhere else on the net it is probably me (or someone who read that and wanted to prove me wrong so they stole my name and used it somewhere else).

Well Paz was my nickname at school; short for Parry.

It's also spanish for "peace" apparently, and the world needs a bit more of that.

Cheers,

It says by face looks too good to be on a forum. It might cause people to stare too hard! ;) So I will just let you imagine looking at my neck!

Thats kinda cool whats the origin of your name?

It's the portuguese form of SANTIAGO (http://www.behindthename.com/php/view.php?name=tiago) - Means "Saint James", derived from Spanish santo "saint" combined with Iago, an old Spanish form of JAMES, the patron saint of Spain. Cities in Chile and Spain bear this name.

It is pronounced like: tyah-go

nick is Al because most people call me Al

It's the short version for Allan :P

Al
08-23-2006, 02:39 PM
It's the short version for Allan :P
That's true but I don't normally use Allan. I've got a bit of a Northern UK accent so people think I'm saying Owen instead of Allan which was kind of annoying.

I used to live in a place called Carlton which conincidentally is my surname this made ordering a taxi a bit of a nightmare.

Me: Can I get a taxi please
Taxi operator: What name is it
Me: Allan
Annoying Taxi operator: Where are you going to Owen?
Me: No the names Allan
Very annoying Taxi operator: What was that Owen?
Me: Never mind

or it would go like:

Me: Can I get a taxi please
Taxi operator: Where are you going
Me: Town
Taxi operator: Where are you now
Me: Carlton
Taxi operator: What name is it
Me: Carlton
Annoying Taxi operator: Yes but what name it is
Me: The name is Carlton
Really Annoying Taxi operator: Yes I know where you are now what name is it
Me: Allan
Dumb Taxi operator: The taxi will be with you shortly Owen

FourBear
08-27-2006, 08:02 PM
Here's the etymology of my nickname:

Four = reference to my favorite band, Fab Four ---> Beatles
Bear = the nickname I was given in college, based on an old screenname (don't ask)

It's also a nifty play on words!
