A2Ker's name

Seed, there is an old thread somewhere that asks this same question, however, it does not include the newbies.

I got mine from a java applet called "colorbook"

well seems like a good time to bring it back

This site has grown so large, I don't mind repeating myself. I am a chef who loves caviar (Osetra please, choice of real connoisseurs) and I own a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who I love as well. Double meaning.

Cav

I wondered if it had something to do with caviar...seeing you are a Chef and all :wink:

My name's José. My cousin started calling me Joe about 10 years ago.

About 4 years ago, when I needed an unique e-mail name and I was really into punk-band NOFX, I thought JoeFX was original. And it stuck since then.

My name comes from my nickname when I was a toddler: panza de agua(water belly)

mac is my initials and 11 is my lucky number.

Seed, I've wondered if you were into gardening.

I'm actually myopic but people are confused by that moniker.

Here's a post from last year, edited a bit -

I am someone who went to italy on a long vacation, first long vacation in a longggggg time, and went bananas. That was a while ago now.

When I have to pick names for passwords, etc., I choose italian words..as I spent a bunch of time trying to knock italian into my skull. Ossobuco, or Osso Buco is a dish cooked in the Emilia-Romagna region that involves veal shanks (or sometimes beef or lamb shanks.) I ate it once in a small restaurant at lunch in Modena, the town Pavarotti is from. I am not a vegetarian, but am not much into killing calves. The name is more to call up italian sounds, I love the language even though I speak it quite badly. In my mind the language is a kind of music

I am known by this fairly masculine sounding name and keep it with a kind of beefy pride even though I am a woman with a lot of issues, as they say, about the beef industry and hunting. Not to mention that my name plus the avatar make me seem not very feminine. But I am, so I don't worry about it.

Oh yeah, dys, that makes sense. I guess we should start calling you Myopic, then. Or just My, for short? Or perhaps Myo?

(For explanation of "Eva," see my profile.)

Got mine from a program I use to watch. There was a cowgirl in the program (Snowy River) named Montana that reminds me so much of myself.

Aldistar is the name of my dragon companion :wink:

Because my grandfather (mother's site) was called Walter, I got that name as well.

The first Hinteler's must have had their farm "behind the fields" [that's what the name might mean].
And since the family got this name since 1287, I didn't see any reason to change it.

John-bush?????
maybe it should be changed after the USA election this year

my initials are jd, i'm a music fan and a fan of word manipulation so i liked the palindrome effect of djjd, the first time i tried to use i i was told, user already exists, so i added the year of my birth to the mix and the rest as they say is history

I've recently thought about changing my name legally to Joe Nation
which is so much better than my real name
gustavratzenhofer
which I wanted to use
but like djjd or jddj or djdjdjd
it was already taken
by someone I can't talk about
because it makes me so mad
and because of what the legal team said
and
because it is such a beautiful name,
the same as my mother's,
except she called herself Eva
(What a profile she had!)
so I decided not to.

Hope this helps

Joe

You reminded me Joe, of the fact that those who are handy with the English language can mangle it too...

I love words. I love that your family called you water belly and not jellybelly.

J

My real name is Vilhelm Flugheim.

I didn't want people making fun of my name so I chose the name Gustav Ratzenhofer for this site.

(please keep my real name a secret)
