Author	Topic: what does your username mean?

dantoris Oscar® Winner	I'm always curious about usernames on messageboards I'm registered with. I don't know if this has been done here before or not (I'm still fairly new), but I posted the same one at FSM a few months ago and got a lot of interesting responses. "Dantoris" is the name of an evil vampire in a short story I wrote back in 1996 for a Creative Writing class in high school. I liked the name so much I decided to use it while registering for my first messageboard (IMDB.com), and it's stuck with me on every board since. So go ahead. Let us all know what your username means. NP: SPACEHUNTER complete score **/**

Shaun Rutherford Oscar® Winner	Shaun Rutherford is the name of a guy who I once killed. I assumed his identity, married his woman, and claimed all of his film scores. This guy was a freak! Now, I parade around town as Shaun, in various stages of undress. Isn't life grand? Dav---er, Shaun NP---A Lizard In A Woman's Skin (feels like home to me!)

Greg Bryant Oscar® Winner	My mom always claimed she named me after Gregory Peck, her favorite actor. I don't know if it's really true, but given the body of his work and his reputation as a gentleman, well, I can't complain. Of course, I could be the other Greg Bryant (there are several). NP - The Green Mile

Widescreen Oscar® Winner	Although might seem obvious at first, it has a deeper meaning for me. To all of you, that second meaning I shall describe as a part of future title of a creative force burgeoning. All that aside, it sounded better than Letterbox.

kyle42 Oscar® Winner	Well, Kyle is my first name. And if you don't know what the #42 means go buy a book called the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy!!!

Cole Oscar® Winner	well my name is da street spellin of "cool" which I obviously am; hence the name. Or, if I am feeling more sophisticated, then I would dare say it was a reference to the greatest songwriter of our land: Cole Porter or it could mean that I am a cold hearted individual or that I really like to eat cole slaw or, it could just be my name. my email adress (GalliumFlux@aol)is somewhat more unique than just my name. In high School I was daydreaming during Chemistry while staring at the periodic chart of elements. Gallium was a cool sounding element/word. I remarked to a fellow Star Trek fan/friend that it would be a cool name for a ship. "What?" he said. "You know, like the Gallium Flux or something." I like the ring of it so much that I decided to use it for my email adress.

Scorro Oscar® Winner	When I first signed on to this board I decided to change my alias. Other people had cool user id's, so I decided to create one which blended 'score' with a well known character. At first I tried Bozo, but that didn't work so well. Scozo? No. Scoraholic? Nyet. With only a 2 minute time budget to work with, Scorro it was, and is! Sc_

H Rocco Oscar® Winner	I tried several names before settling on this one. My favorite, but most difficult, was the longest Japanese name I could think of: Hidetsurumaro Takayanagi. Borderline Thai in its difficulty of spelling and pronunciation. Rocco is a buddy's middle name; H is just the letter I picked to go with it. I've long since decided it stands for "Henry." (I mean, for example, "Hitler" would send the wrong impression altogether, wouldn't it.) (Shaun, you just THINK you killed me. I'll catch up to you. Sooner than later. Or later than sooner? I haven't decided how I'm going to let you know, heheeheheeeee)

Steve Hughes Oscar® Winner	My real name is Tom Ripley, and I killed Steve Hughes and am living his life... Actually, my real name is Stephen Hughes, but I shortened the Stephen to Steve.

J. Peter Wolk-Laniewski Oscar® Winner	I was planning to keep the origins of my screen name a secret so as to preserve my mystique, but alright. I was named after my grandfather, who goes by Joseph (actually Joe). It would get kind of confusing with two of us running around, so I go by Peter. Wolk is a Polish word that refers to oxen or steer, indicating that it's original owner was probably a big strong person. (I am not making this up)The Laniewski is pretty much all fancy title stuff except for Lan, which is Polish for cornfield, indicating that the original owner worked on a cornfield. I myself have no personal connection whatsoever to a cornfield and am a complete wuss. I guess the genes have been diluted a bit through the years. This mind-numbing journey through historical meanings of names has been brought to you by Poland: I don't care how many jokes you know, we kick ass! We really do!

spango Oscar® Winner	one of the most underrated films gave me inspiration and birth to my user-name. MOM AND DAD SAVE THE WORLD is IMHO one of the funniest movies with a great character named Tod `THE DESTROYER` Spango. He also owns his personal hymn, composed by the almost great Goldsmith.
