What does your user name mean?

[dejoux]

I thought this thread would already exist but I searched and I couldnt find one, apoligies if there is one.

Mine comes from the Mini Dejoux that was a kit car based on a Mini Floorpan and Mechanicals from New Zealand.

[primera man]

I think mines pretty easy to work out

[speediva]

It's not nearly as interesting as one might guess...

Saturn comes from saturnine. Tangerine comes from the color of my iMac.

Petrol company?

[kris]

Yes this post already was created. But it was a loooong time ago. I was actually thinking about bringing it back up. But this works even better, as I think my old one was about 7 pages long.


As for my username, well, I really dont know. I first had it way back in highschool. I was setting up a email account and slacker was already taken. I decided to put my initials in front. I have just used it ever since.

[DVSNCYNIKL]

Well, my name is kinda self explanatory. I'm always being told that I am a devious person. I am also cynical about things in life. So as my name implies:

DVS = Devious

N = and

CYNIKL = Cynical

Sometimes I tend to be on the mean side or just plain blunt about things. Sometimes it works for me, sometimes against. Either way, I get my point across.

I was too lazy to type my whole thing out, so I just searched for my old post and quoted it.

At first glance many ppl think im gay cause my nick is HuMMerMan. To set the record straight (no pun intended) ill say this.

#1. I'm not homosexual, but

#2. I don't have anything against them im just not one of em.

#3. It's not related to anything sexual

#4. And if it had to be used in a sexual context then it would be to say that the HuMMErMan recieves hummers from women. But id be lying through my ass if I said the HuMMErMan was any kind of a chick magnet, so ill just refer back to #3)

The real reason for the nick is that I just love the AM General Hummer. I have posters of the Hummer, my computer desktop has a pic of a Hummer on it, and once, I got to drive a hummer (Just around the block, but I still felt like god ) My dream is to eventually own a Hummer of my own.

One day I used HuMMErMan as my nick on IRC and it stuck from then on. And if your wondering about the mix of capitol and lowercase characters, I think I was just drunk at the time

[gang$tarr]

well mine is just the name of a hip hop rapper/group... it's Guru a rapper and DJ Premier the DJ for Gangstarr. I was listenin to them when i registered so i just used that name easy enough

[KatWoman]

<~~I am Kat and I am Woman.

HEAR ME ROAR! hehe...ok I am done now. Back to work now

[ales]

It means that when I needed a username (four years ago) I didn't want to use "Alex", hence "ales"

[YogsVR4]

Nick name in college was Yogi and I own a couple VR4s. Pretty straight forward.

[blacksnake98]

[DantesInferno]

DantesInferno is fairly self-explanitory, but for those that aren't familiar with it, it comes from The Inferno of Dante Alighieri, The Divine Comedy which describes at length the nine circles of Hell: Limbo, Lust, Gluttony, Avarice, Anger, Heresy, Violence, Fraud, and Treacherous Fraud.

When choosing a username for AF, after much deliberation , I chose this, mainly thinking "what the Hell am I getting myself into?" And suddenly a quote from Dante's Inferno seemed relatively applicable, "Abandon hope all ye who enter..."
