Why that nickname?

Xehirut

So I was talking to ThisIsNotReal, ( quite a decent chap actually ), and he asked me how I got my nickname.

So, I thought we could post out how we got our nicknames.

I'm really interested in learning a few of my friends ( Neo-sporin... and a few other peoples ) names.


My name:

Zehirut, the way its originally spelt, in Hebrew, means Look Out.

Before you ask yourself "Is X Hebrew?" nope, I'm not, I stumbled across this handle by sheer accident.

I have always hated the letter Zed ( Z for those who don't call it by its proper name ) and I thought because Zed and X are pronounced the same in the English language I could take a liberty with my favorite letter of the alphabet. ( X.. if you haven't figured it out yet.. ) I freely took the liberty, and changed it.

I got Xehirut....

Thats the story of my Handle.

How about yours? How'd you get it?
ThisIsNotReal

ThisIsNotReal here, I was just never prone to picking names like one word, then a whole bunch of numbers. Too messy for a nerd like me. So i copied off of ENTER THE MATRIX, and used the password to get your mail...ThisIsNotReal...That's me story, and i'm sticking to it!
NEOsporin

LoL, i came up with mine when me and my friends were watching m1 a while ago and it seems that "neo" has got the "treatment" for every situation, regardless of how bad a situation he is in.

So i just started calling neo, "Neosporin" outa knowhere and my friends were laughing there arses off... so they all call him neosporin.


Its so stupid that its actually funny.Its just cheap amusement


PS..............THIS IS MY 300th POST!! YAY!:D
UT

I have had the name of Trinity before the matrix came out. I have used it on the pc for 5 years and when I was younger I used Trinity on the CB radio. I have always loved it because I believe in the 3 theory. Everything comes in threes good or bad.

I also was going to name my next child Trinity but he turned out to be a boy I called him Ewan.

So there you have it. Oh I also have been a big believer in Tri Kaya.
Dawn

I got my nickname when I decided that I should choose the name I would call myself when I were set free from the Matrix...I was obsessed with the thought of becoming Neo and Trin's daughter, so I picked the name Dawn, cause to me it's like "a new beginning"..."the dawn of a new world...so that's how I got my nickname :) Not that original, but it means a lot to me.
UT

That's interesting because my best friends name is Dawn and when she had her first Baby it was a little daughter so she named her Eve, since then she has had no more children and I don't think ever will lol, but I always loved that premis.
Atari

Atari. A legendary name in computer entertainment. An Atari VCS was my first gaming console. Distributor of the Enter The Matrix game.

DCLXVI. 666 in roman numerals.
funkyhorror

from this section of a Happy Noode Boy comic :D and because it's such a cool name... :cool: no deep meaning behind my name, that's for sure, hehe :)
dejavu_glitch

when i first saw the matrix, the deja vu scene really stuck in my mind because i had often wondered myself what deja vu meant, and why it happend.. and to see it incorporated into the matrix as a glitch was really nifty, so.. yeah.. it became my handle for this board. the end:)
redpill1290

my name is pretty obvious-hell yea id take the redpilll
Naraku

The name 'Naraku' comes from ancient Japan. It symbolizes 'hades, eternity and death'.
./Ne0\.

i chose my name because i wanted a different name. most of the time i normaly call myself Goshin when i join a forum but as been this is a matrix forum and i like neo i just called my self ./Ne0\. because most other ways of spelling it are taken
Archangel

Cause I feel godly?.... :p

Nah, no particular reason.... I just like it
liondale

First thoughts went to the Matrix characters of course, but found that I was way to humble/ to consider any of them for myself. I have also always believed in having my own identity rather than taking/borrowing from others.

I am a Leo, and as a kid my favourite books were Astrid Lindgren's: "The Lionheart Brothers" (don't know if this is a correct translaton of the Norwegian/Swedish Brödrene Lövhjerte): A young boy is sick and dying - his older brother sacrifices himself to die with his young brother - so he may protect him in the next world. The next world is full of bad creatures (dragons, trolls etc) but they have to go on a journey to reach the gates of the third and final world - kind of paradise. This was why the older brother decided to die with his younger brother, because a failure to reach the third world would leave him in eternal pain or something.
Or this is at least how I remeber it now - it's more than 20 years since I read it so my memory might have holes.

Anyway, all this lead me to wanting a name with Lion, but Lionheart sounds a bit to pompeous to me (like a bad action movie). While playing around with the name I ended up with Liondale which I think sounds good phonetically. Don't know - haven't actually checked - if it means anything, but that's what I went with.
Pretty long story for a couple of minutes hard thinking ;)
gurrlpunk

hmm, let me go back in the day, when i first came up with the handle "gurrlpunk." it has absolutely nothing to do with the matrix, obviously. i made it up when i was in the 9th grade and making a yahoo! email account. i put punk cuz i can be one sometimes, kinda like a prankster/trouble maker, and because i listen to some punk. and the "gurrl" is cuz i couldn't think of anything cool. i think gurrlpunk is better than punkgurrl... but i dunno, i guess it's a crappy handle. my bad
liondale

I've liked gurrlpunk from the first time I saw it, because it has some attitude :)
Kumi

Kumi Sato, one of the guys on the Design Team of Metal Gear Solid 2. heh... I like the name Kumi, aswell... beats Goracsi, my game name...

Heh - good for you! :)
And that's why I like Trinity too, because she doesn't take crap from anyone - but stands up for herself, and still she can be soft and caring...
dejavu_glitch

gurrlpunk - that'd be awesome as the name for a skate/punk clothes brand for chicks.
redpill1290

wered u get ur name deja vu glitch...?jk
bucho4321

You guys might think this is stupid but used my cat's name as my user name. I named him after the bad brother from the movie "Desperado". The character is ruthless and a bully and so is my cat but I love him to death.
Rev. Joshua

I'm very much the mail order minister. Hell, I even bought the honorary doctor's degree in divinity for 20 bucks.
jthm667

my name is a combo of two thing:

1. jthm- Johnny the Homicidal Maniac. my real name is not johnny, but i got my name from the author of happy noodle boy comics (the base of funkyhorror's name) Johnny the Homicidal Maniac drawn by Johnen Vasquez (also known for Invader Zim)

2. 667- a friend of mines email is jesus667 i always found it funny that he had christ then ALMOST satans number, im easily amused thus jthm667 was born
gurrlpunk

yeah, it does sound like it could be a kick ass company name. hehe! hmm... my best friend and i have been trying to think of a business that we could start.... :cool:
CraHan

My nickname used to be CrashHandler, but since it sounded so stupid I just decided to abbreviate it to CraHan. Little did I know that CraHan would actually be a last name for some people :rolleyes:

But since a lot of people knew me under that name I stuck with it. Been using it since 1999 or so.
eRider

I think it sounds good, can't remember how i came up with it .. Also easy to remember ;)

erh, u mean the game, Civilization ?

Kumi

redpill1290

I've also spent way too much playing Civ... Prefer more real-time action or shooters now though...
redpill1290

eRider

Im mostly into FPS and other action games ..

Also like cargames *im car-crazy*, like NFS - Hot Pursuit2 ..
redpill1290

eRider

well .. i don't own a ps2, so i can't really play Gran Turismo, but i played it a few times on my friends ps2, and i like it.

i love gta3, have it on my computer .. It's a shame gta vice city can't be played on a computer .. yet :( That's a cool game !

WTF?! You haven't heard of Easy Rider? Hmm, guess you must be young then. No offense of course, nothing wrong with that, but Easy Rider is one of the most famous cult movies ever. Look it up in Google or something.
And now I guess I am going to get a rush of others saying they haven't heard of it either :)
eRider

well .. im 15 years old, so that's probally why. But, who needs Easy Rider when u can have The Fast & The Furious (i suppose Easy Rider is a car movie :P )

It's actually about a couple of pot smoking Harley Davidson riders. It had the "Born to be wild" as the title song of the movie (now don't tell me you haven't heard of that either :) ), and it's more about that (Born to be wild) than actually driving...

Good explanation :)

Nebukadnezar - And you could say - Ex-captain of Nebukadnezar - that sounds pretty dramatic....

oh yeah it got blown up :P

Ok, it must have been a bad translation in the subtitles here then. But your title looks good now :)
IamMorpheus

Thanks
Smith's Bane

The Bane in my name has double meaning.

Bane means to cause the ruin, death, destuction, etc. of something. Also it is the name of the guy Smith has taken over to get into the real world.
Blaise

i thought of a name i would like if i was unplugged too.

and i was reading the above series at the time and Blaise is such a cooooooooool name anyway

actually, i look nothing like a blaise :p <---how cute!!!:D
Blaise

how do u change the 'title' thing (i odnt know what it is called) below ur name and above ur avatar (or whatever that piccy is) the bit that says newbie etc.

cos every1 else has really good customized ones

big cheeesy grin with xtra cheese
liondale

The title changes gradually and automatically as you get more posts. At 260 you can set your own....Go-go-go! :)
NeO6692

I chose this name because my middle name is really Neons! My parents where obsessed with things that were neon I guess?
wheresbobcarlso

I got my nickname from my aunt, she asked what I wanted for my name, and I told her to pick one. BIG mistake!
wheresbobcarlso

NeO6692, your parents are a little scary. Did they smoke a lot of pot when they were younger?lol:p
NeO6692

Yes, but they did a lot more than just weed. I think they are pretty crazy myself!:cool:
Victory

Well I wanted the name Red_Queen...but that was taken...so I just used what my name means...thats how I got it...
iamatwin

red queen, as in from resident evil computer bad guy?
HomoUniversalis

I posted this on another topic concerning this, but I thought I'd just fill up some more cyperspace..

Anyway, Homo Universalis (Homo=Man, Universalis=Universal) is basicly an evolution after Homo Sapiens Sapiens (means Thinking Man, an evolution of Homo N00bus, NON-thinking Man ;))

Enough for my lame n00b jokes.. The first person every called Homo Universalis is Leonardo Davinci, known for being a genius in all kind of aspects, he was a great artist, sculptur and inventor of the bicycle, airplane, helicopter and a machine to turn lead into gold (;)).

Yep, that's me, thinking I'm some sort of intelligent, intelectual person on all aspects of my life...
Horatio

i think mine is pretty self explanetory, the one is dead blahda blahda blahda...
MacLeod

Whoop-better late than ever.

...I guess everyone knows the meaning of my nick: Connor or Duncan-you choose! heh heh. I'm always inspired by the thought of being an Immortal, with so many years of experience and wisdom...for I value wisdom greatly. It's a nick I've chosen to stick to wherever I go for the convenience, so you'll know its me if you see that again! <winks>
Bamba-MAN

The vets are probably know the reason of my nick.... I opened a thread about it 2 months ago, because many members PMed me and asked me what is the meaning of my name.

What is the Bamba?
Unfortunally, no one can be told what the bamba is. You have to eat it for your self.
Bmaba is a israeli sneak:
http://www.taquitos.net/snacks.php?snack_code=824
It's taste like peanut-butter.
U R probably asking your selves what is the connection between me and Bamba?

EVERY day at school I am eating a sandwich with peanut butter.
Peanut butter smells like Bamba, so every time I am eating peanut butter ppl r asking me: Did you ate Bamba today?
This is the reason......
Methelael

As for me....I don't really know if there IS a meaning to my name...

It was either "Methuselah" or "Mahalalel / Mahalael" that I was planning on using for my nick, since those two names struck me as "worthy" (they're names from the bible, or so I believe. Sons of Cain, probably...)

So, instead of using one of them, I decided to mash them together, and voila! Methelael....Sounds like a name you would give to a machine (or so it does to me), and since I have an affinity for the machines in the Matrix (squiddies 0wn!), there you go....

:D
mr. fluffles

well.......i dont really know why i picked this name.....i joined a gaming clan a while back and wanted something funny so this came up and its been my name for forums and online games.
Deus Ex Machina

yes!!! another person who's read johnny the homicidal maniac
(back to post subject)
i got my nickname by playing to much of a game called deus ex (it actually has a matrixy feel to it) and one day at school my english teacher heared me talking about it and she asked if i knew what deus ex means (i didnt) so she told me it was latin and it was part of a sentance which was deus ex machina, then she told me it translated to " the machine from god) so i thought that was such a cool name whin i signed up here it had to be my name(plus it was the only one i could think of at the time)
Bamba-MAN

Deus ex machina is also the name of the main machine that Neo met in the machine's city (01) :

Kevin Michael Richardson .... Deus Ex Machina (as Kevin M. Richardson)

The machine's voice was Kevin's voice.

The credits of M3: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0242653/fullcredits
Deus Ex Machina

thanks but i already knew that but at least some of you know what it means (some of you might have already known)
Jetfire

My nickname doesn't have a meaning.. It's just a name...
MacLeod

That's strange...that's not the true translation of the phrase Deus-and yeah I love Deus Ex too! A masterpiece-and part 2's just over the horizon! :D Deus Ex Machina actually means 'God IN a machine'...not very clear on what that means...its pretty obscure and definitely religious.
As for you Jet...I'm surprised. I had the impression you based it on Transformers' Jetfire-that spacejet-dude. Ah well. :)
Jetfire

Space transformer.. I've never seen transformers.. The show or anything.. I didn't get it off that.. I used to be known as Speedfire66... But now I've updated my name to Jetfire (from Jetfire90)
B166ER

My nickname is pretty self-explanatory isn't it :D ?!
Hitman

Mac,
Thank god...I thought i was the only one thinking of the Transformer Jetfire...sheesh...we're gettin' old, man...
Hitman

Hmmm...thought I'd already done this, but oh well....

Hitman....I got the name back in college because of the job I used to have; when I left my room dressed for work, everyone would say I looked like a hit man. The name stuck...and that's who I've been ever since.
renegade-agent

WEEEEELLLLL,i chose my nick-name to show i'm a renegade,and agent smith is my favourite character from the matrix so time for some maths.......
THE RENEGADE+AGENT SMITH=RENEGADEAGENT oh and my picture is of sephiroth the evil demi-god who terrorises the characters of final fantasy 7 he is sick
veradis

Veradis means truth (the truth shall set you free). Thought I would post that know b/c this is my 100th post. Woohoo!!!

It's been a long and surprising road, full of twists, turns, and scary grizzly bears hiding behind the next tree :D
Kara

My name means 'pure' in Greek. I was obsessed with angels and such at the time, and I just selected it. That, and it was the name of many of my characters in poems and short stories.
Lotus Jet

My name:

Lotus- My favorite flower, for it survives only in mud and dirty water. It brings light to the darkness.

Jet- From my favorite videogame of all time, Jet Set Radio Future.
veradis

Wow I didn't think anyone else played Jet Set Radio. It wasn't my favorite, but I liked it. Very unique.
HomoUniversalis

Though my latin might be rusty, isn't it veritas? Aequitas, libertas?

Mr U
PP

It's veritas according to Boondock Saints, and they'd never lie. The boys are saints, after all.
Still, the letter changes makes it Veradis's own name, rather than just a word. *slaps Veradis with her seal of approval, then returns the seal to the local zoo*
veradis

Yes, in latin it is veritas, but i found a website that said veradis means truthful or genuine, & i thought it had a little more of a ring to it. And thanks for your approval, PP. I don't know how I could have gone on without it.
freeyourmind

Can anyone guess what movie my name's from?

i know this doe's not really have anything really to do with this ,but some guy in mt country called his political party VERITAS,never knew what it stood for though.....truth.............cool

No. It is from the movie "The Matrix".

bartlett

i always loved bart from the simpsons....and when my partner came along, his name last name is bartlett, anyway i loved it so much, and the shortened version is way cool, i used it. mind u it makes it easier cause i dont get unwanted attention of idiotic cybers straight off the net. they never know if im female or male unless they can be bothered checking my profile
UT

I have always loved UT. Due to the game, Unreal Tournament. However, when I origionally signed up here, I was aiming for Trinity (as I'd been using that nick for years, even before the movies came out). But alas, it was taken. So I made it UltimateTrinity. Then I kicked my ass as I wanted to make it UnholyTrinity, (which is used btw by another awesome woman and admin of another Matrix forum who also goes by the shortened nick UT herself. But that's a story for another time lol) Then after a couple of thousand posts, and people either calling me mum or UT I shortened it like PP has. Now if I can only get ThereIsNoMatrix to do the same lol.
Splinter

Splinter wasn't actually my first choice for a name. I was going to pick Only_Human. But the site wouldn't let me. So I chose the name Splinter when I joined because I liked the whole idea of "A Splinter in your mind". And it had a nice ring to it, I thought.
PP

I like Splinter; it reminds me of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles...except you're kinkier than the TMNT Splinter ;)
veradis

I used to love that show... Michelangelo's my favorite.

DonDaddy

Why this nickname? Because its bitchin, thats why.
veradis

Would you care to enlighten us on what TheDon actually means?

You don't know what The Don is?

Oh yeah, I also have this nick because I'm a sponsored professional, so I get checks every month. Inquire within about future sponsorships.

Yes, Splinterwoman is indeed a Splinterwoman! And no, I have never played Splinter Cell.
Eon

Is it me, or does everyone mistake you for a guy babe?
PP

Well of course my dear PP, for you, anything.
Honey, that is wonderful. Thanks for sharing :)

I think most people assume other people on forums are guys until proven otherwise. With Splin, it's pretty easy to tell after a post or two that she's not a dude.
Splinter

Is it me, or does everyone mistake you for a guy babe?
It's starting to scare me...next thing you know I'll be having an identity crisis because I'm starting to believe that I really am a guy. Hey Eon, do you remember back in the day when I actually had in my Sig, "Yes, I am a girl?" Good times.
Eon

I do, god that was a while ago, very good times indeed.
UT

lol. Kickass pic veradis. I've been searching for a really clean image of those for a mate of mine for the longest time. Awesome lol.

http://www.rmlicensing.com/ENG/Ninja/ninja3.gif
veradis

No prob UT. Google image search is my savior :)
GrAyFiRe

GrAyFiRe: Gray, because it's my name. Fire, because I'm hot. And TrIpPy LeTtErS because it looks cool. (IMO :D )

(Like the quote in my sig. BTW? I made it up myself.)
Raj Against The Machine

Raj Against the Machine: Rage Against the Machine is my favourite band and once at school my friend called me Raj Against the Machine and its stuck since.

Psycho

Let's see here... I'll just run down the lists of my nick-names I've had in the past...

Matrix Sites--

-Seraph~011101 : Used on MM : Basically, I wanted my name to be a lesser-known character. Since Seraph was already taken, I did the 011101 in the back because that was his made-up binary code.

-Seraph : Used on MH : Same thing as above. However I began to feel unoriginal.

Basic Sites--

-Psycho : Used on Basically Every Site : My most well-known name. It came from CS when I was trying out for a clan. I was knifing people and they started calling me "Scream", but I chose Psycho. It is also the name of my production/gaming company -- Psycho Studios.

-Dark^Silver : Used on Dark^Silver Gaming Co. : Not a very well known name. Psycho Studios Gaming merged with the struggling Silver Games and made Dark^Silver. However, after a little while I pulled the plug and the site crashed roughly half-way through our first game. (RPG Maker, not real)

-P8ntPsycho : Used on PBNation.com : Again Psycho, but with P8nt in front of it symbolizing paintball.

Online Gaming--

-DarkSilver9014 : Used on X-BOX Live and PS2 Online : The only original name I could think of.

-Roger.the.Shrubber : Used on PSP : I was quoting Monty Python to my friends and I was struck by this name and decided to use it.

Steam--

-|S.T.A.R.S| Kevin Ryman : Used on Zombie Panic : Part of S.T.A.R.S. clan, and Kevin Ryman is my favorite Resident Evil character.

-ThereIsNoSpooN : Used on The Specialists : Matrix-y. It's a Matrix game. Go figure.

-#Clan-FA|Psycho : Used on Counter-Strike 1.5 : Clan Fallen Angels, Psycho.

-<--{DD}--> VoTe4Pedro : Used on Counter-Strike: Condition Zero : Clan Dynasty Dogs. In my Napoleon Dynamite phase.

-Sol!d Snake : Used on Counter-Strike 1.6 (Not anymore) : Spell it out. My Metal Gear phase.

-R0g3r.th3.Shrubber : Used on Counter-Strike 1.6, Zombie Panic, and The Specialists : A basic name that no one ever uses. Funny character. Yup.

Comes from the name Beowulf actually. Shortened it to my own personal username whic ironically came out to look like Neo cept with a 'B'. And for those of you who don't know, it's pronounced 'Bay-oh' not 'Bee-oh'.
Kaneda

Sheesh, that's wierd. I've started going by the name Xyu now elsewhere on the net, and I pronounce it Ze-yu, replacing the X with the Z sound too. I saw the name written on a wall at the Kung-Fu class I used to go to.

With the help of yours truly.
eRider

I finally discovered the origin of the username 'eRider'. It's a danish phrase going 'Er I der?' which means 'Are you there?' .. a phrase you can use at rock concerts etc.

Now yall know that!
X-Factor

My username represents a site I go to occasionally.
AlmightyOne

Well those of you who know my username was originally theonealmighty which means god, chosen one, anomaly or the one and only etc. because those who believe in the lord know he is the one almighty but about a year ago I changed it to AlmightyOne which indefinitely means the same.
Caprice

I have always loved the big GM cars, Chevrolet Caprice being the most prominent of them in my eyes. Perhaps this is also why I own one? LOL
SQuiNTZ2020

Well, my choice for picking this screen name was my vision. I've had bad vision for as long as I could remember. So much so, that I think my other senses are enhanced. The best one being my ears. I feel like f*cking DareDevil of DC comics, all the comic book fans out there know who he is, and for those of you who don't know, they even made a movie about him. Same title and all. So yeah, I got super freakin' great hearing! I'm surprised I can't hear you reading this right now. lol

But yeah, my vision is so bad I should be collecting disability checks at home. Its bad. Bad. Lucky for me, modern day medicine has fixed this for me as of 2 years ago through the miracle of contact lenses and soon enough laser surgery. Or an operation, not sure which yet...

Anyway, I'm begining to ramble.. I picked SQuiNTZ2020 cuz I had to squint almost my whole life. The "Z" because its just cooler than an "S" lol, and the 2020 cuz I got 20/20 vision now.
FlightlessAngel

there are several reasons why i chose this screen name, one is that i knew no one would actually choose this screen name, another is that it does resemble who i am.
Neo's_Son

When i register i thought the trinity was going to have a kid in the third installment. My guess was wrong. But i still like it.

Breathtakingly fascinating. Honestly.
