OK, I seem to have inadvertently caused this discussion to go very much off-topic with my trekkie remark.

I suggest to leave this topic for it's true intentions (after all, it IS called "What does your name mean?") and if we want to start off a trekkie discussion, let's start a fresh topic. (And I'm looking eagerly to any moderator to suggest to me where I can start such a topic)



Ahh, the place for all Trekkies would naturally be Matters of General Interest!

Oh, dear. What does my name mean...? I'm not even sure myself! :-[

Let me at least say that my real name is not Albus! I simply chose the name because 1. It sounds more prestigious than my real name Jason and 2. It's the name of my favorite book character of all time.

The Garaway part...I truly have no idea.  ???

Mine : "blakesterville" , souns kinda weird , itcomes from my name(obviously , Blake)I have been called blakester in the past and I put "ville" on top of that because it was simcity related :).

CabraBuitre

I love animal names in Spanish.  My name is two animals mashed together...

Cabra = Goat
Buitre = Vulture

I just really like both those words... no other real meaning, unless you count the time when I was about 5 and my grandma asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, and I said a goat...

I was at one time (I may pick it up again, but it's been a while) writing a Buffy/Potter fanfic series titled "Lady Liberty".

(It's posted at tthfanfic.net, if you're interested.)

bob56

Mine doesn't really have any meaning. In 5th grade, we all had to pick usernamesfor a site. I randomly put in "Bob", but there already were 55 others. I turned to Bob56, and it stuck...It's my username on all online activities
You can call me Grif

Hi, All.

What does my name mean?  I'd love to give you a real esoteric answer but the plain truth is that it is a nickname of my surname.

Regards,

Gary

Lilojame

Hm, well to add me in here, Lilojame is a music grupe here in Slovenia for one, but I am not such a fan of them. For the second the name comes out from the 5th Element movie, you know, Bruce "the-bloodiest-the-better" Willis starring and the Lilo (Lilojame) (I believe it was Mila Jovovič/Jovovich). Anyhow, it sounded good to me.  :D
As for my real name it means "pure". :D

Have fun,
Karin

Visit my MD Rainbow Falls or check Rainbow Falls Out of the Box or maybe check on my bats&lots visiting Lilojame´s Corner or if you wish go to Lilojame´s Candidacies.

WC_EEND

anyone who understands dutch will know what my username means (for those of you who don't: WC=toilet and EEND=duck)

furthermore, i use that nickname everywhere (exept on steam, where you'll find me as [UC]Borat) and it's easy to remember and not frequently used by anyone else. I also think WC EEND used used to be somethink to clean your toilet, not quite sure about that one though

homefryes

I can't believe I never posted here, so here goes. My username has an unusual beginning. It is sort of a derivative of my surname, but convoluted as to how that came about: when I worked at McDonald's like 20 years ago; a couple coworkers and I would chuckle ::) when someone would call the hash browns "homefries." Eventually it somehow developed into a nickname for me! As for the spelling, when I signed on to my first ISP in the mid 1990s, I decided that would be a great username; however the correct spelling was unavailable ... so I changed the "i" to a "y" ... and thus "homefryes" was born! I've used it everywhere since. ()stsfd()

46Bit was simply a mix around of 64-bit, to do with computer binary for those who don't know  ;).

JBSimio

Apparently I've never posted here either...  &ops

Mine is a combination of two nicknames I was given.  I was the younger of two Jons at one of my jobs, so the boss started calling me Jon-Boy which eventually just shortened to JB.  I've worked with this person at several camps and JB is still the only name I'm really known by at those places.  "Simio" came from my days at Applebee's... where most of the cooks were Mexican and gave the remaining few of us Spanish nicknames.  "Simio" means monkey... which I think I got because I would climb up onto shelves to reach things (or maybe it's just that I have big ears... who knows?)  I mashed the two together and got JBSimio.  ;)

I have posted here before.  :P But I deleted my post a few seconds ago...

My name is a long story (not really), it at first is a few keys I pushed (because I couldn't think of one) when I first registered at a site, some while ago. I guessed it stayed. Then I started making excuses to what it meant.  ::) I finally came to the conclusion that in English my name means one one, because un, in French is one and 1 is one.
