Here is a question for everyone
 

What's with everyone's name. WHat does it stand for

Asmodeus- Hebrew name for power and no i'm not hebrew
:lol:

mike

Mine is my nick name

Um, at one point I was new to the hobby/board....oh and I'm a guy :lol:

No real reason other then I like to muck about with stuff.
Kindof a DIYer looking for the time to actually DIY... :mrgreen:

nemain: Furious Goddess of the MORRIGAN Mob.

Her name means frenzy or fury. Think battlefields of blood and pub punch-ups

... or Asterix and Obelix comics. hehe :mrgreen:

My brother gave me the nickname years ago when I found out I was carrying twins. Someone told me it actually means 'an artist's copy of his own work'. Seems fitting enough.. :biggrin:

I always wondered where Asmodeus came from.

Delphinus is the name of the dolphin in Greek mythology. I've heard several versions though, and I'm not sure which one is correct, or perhaps they all are. The one I'm most familiar with is this. Poseidon, king of the sea, wanted to marry Amphitrite (sister of Thetis). She didn't take too well to the idea, or something ... so she fled into the mountains. He sent many messengers to the mountains to plead for her return, but it was Delphinus the dolphin who won her over with his charms (or something). So Poseidon thanked Delphinus by making him into a constellation.

Those Ancient Greeks... :rolleyes: Some days you have to wonder what they were smokin'. Personally, I'm a little unclear about how a dolphin made it into the mountains .. but .. maybe I'm overanalyzing the plot a little. I'm not sure.

Delphinus seems to be popular name for sail boats.

A computer graphics term from my younger days. I don't like this name and I want to change it to something more recognizable.

christy: my name

years ago I was signing up for an email account: christy was taken, christyf was taken. I was the 5th christyf, by then I was tired of thinking of names so that was good enough for me.

I wish I had something fancier and with more meaning although I did have a good laugh when someone pointed out to me that the "F5" key was the refresh key (I do that alot on this site :razz:).

Christy :)

LOL I know what a trilinear mipmap is .... :eek: But I was a comp. graphics geek in a former life too.

I had to change my avatar, I used to have a picture of the constellation "Delphinus" but when I would meet up with fellow Canreefers, people were like ... "are you the guy with stars ... what's up with that". :redface:

Christy, I always thought the F5 was a reference to the refresh. :lol:

EmilyB - my doberman and alter ego - the B stands for "Bad" :mrgreen:

Needed a new handle a few years ago, was browsing a friend's site and saw that he had spelt out TV as Teevee, so I just went with it... has no significance.

LostMind.... hmmm, self explantory, right? :)

Cpt Clever was an old handle I used years ago while playing Mech-Warrior with a group of my friends.

When I first found this forum I was intrigued by the avatars (I had never used one before) so I went on the hunt. When I found the "clever icon" I currently use I figured I would join this forum as my old "Blastin' Captain"

I would prefer to change it to CptCleverer

I am's what I am's :lol: .

Most Forums I use Panda which is my older Dal's name. Not sure why I used my real name.

mine is pretty self explanitory...

eons ago when i was akid i play D&D. My first chars names was Zerandise Morgalis. First time i logged onto the net 10 years ago it was the name i used for it. just never got around to changing it.

InVigor® hybrid canola (oilseed rape) varieties are suited to various climatic and soil conditions in different agricultural practices. These hybrid varieties also have tolerance to glufosinate-ammonium and Liberty® herbicide.

InVigor® hybrid Canola was first marketed commercially in Canada in 1997. In 2003, InVigor® hybrids had a market share of 25% in Canada and are currently establishing themselves in major export markets including Japan, Mexico and China.

InVigor® hybrid canola offers significant yield benefits to farmers as well as agricultural management options that require fewer cultivation techniques and therefore save both fuel and time.

I've been using this handle for about 9 years now...I guess it just stuck.

In conjunction with being "invigor" I also go by "FarmerJohn". :mrgreen:

OMG. no comment. :lol:

I play rugby and keep a reef tank. I "ruck" on the field 'n' "reef" in the tank... hence Ruck'n'reefer!

smokinreefer...means you're really good aquarium keeper :rainbow1: :onfire: he he.

mines just a nickname, Manuel shortend.. i wish i could change it, i didn't put much thought into it. :rolleyes:

can you change your user name? i tried with no luck.

OK, well, I think its time for me to come up with a new name.

yeah, me too! I want to be gobywhore :razz:

The other money sucking black hole that I regularly feed my income to is my BMW motorcycle. It is actually my main transportation, getting more than thre times the annual mileage my truck does. Thus I am BMW Rider. Some of you have questioned my sanity having shown up on your doorsteps on my bike to get frags, but heck I've even hauled home a 150 gallon box of salt home on it. I just wish we had Vancouver winters here so I could ride longer.

Considerable thought was put in on mine and it will remain confidential.

When I was sighning up for Canreef 3ish years ago I was filing out the info on the screen and Paul Brant's song "Canadian Man" was playing in the background.

Simple :biggrin:

Yours is my favorite. Wish I had thought of it. Thinking of it right now...

Well, a lot of thought went into mine as well, not. cc_bruno is really my dog's name combined with his breed. He's a Cane Corso, hence the cc, and his name, oddly enough, is Bruno. Works out great too for my hotmail account... I can always tell when it's junk mail... it's addressed to my dog, :biggrin: (now, if I can only get him a credit card... then he can pay for his own food :biggrin: ).

Rob

thanks.

in response to your supply, errrr. no comment again. :lol:

:eek: :redface:

Steve

MIne is too simple. Bob is my first name I is the initial of my last name. I should have put a space between the b and I. :rolleyes:

Kari - means hot in japanese? Or does it mean curry in japanese? Bah, I always mix those two up :)

real simple

j <-first inital
goldsney <- last name

On some other message boards I go by Toast_Man, a handle that i came up with while playing comand and conquer many moons ago. I had to enter a name and it popped in to my head.

Joel

Picked mine up while in Afghanistan.Kuatto was an alien freedom fighter morphed into one of the charater's stomach(total recall).I guess I had a littlte extra weight around the stomach and one of the Americans said"you got your own Kuatto",its stuck ever since :biggrin:

:confused:

Another beyond healthy love and fasination (besides the fish) for gray wolves.

Or maybe from having longer hair than my wife...or a few wolf based tatoos...all of which are black ink...

or just being a generally furry bugger...but if i listened to the dear wife it would say sasquatch in the top left corner of this post.

Mine is obscure...

But I do admire DJ_88's nick!
