Nick origins?

[Kreth]

Some are fairly obvious, some are rather cryptic. How did you come up with your nick (username) for MT?
In my case, Kreth is a nick I've been using since I first dumped AOL and ventured into the wild Internet. I stumbled across IRC rather quickly, and got involved with Star Trek role-playing. I've always been a fan of the Klingons, and Kreth seemed like an appropriate Klingon-sounding name. As I started using other forums, it seemed like a natural move to continue using it.
Who's next?

 

[Navarre]

This would be a good place to start:

[Shirt Ripper]

Mine is from the movie "Kung Pow."

 

[arnisador]

Well, 'arnisador' is to arnis as 'karateka' is to karate. So...

But if you practiced an art called "Termin" ... oh, nevermind.

 

[shesulsa]

Whew - that stunk. Moving on ...

She (because I'm a grrl) Sulsa being the group of special technicians in our martial art often likened to the ninja. She+sulsa = shesulsa.

 

[BlackCatBonz]

mine is from one of my favourite blues songs by muddy waters. black cat bones were thought to be good luck charms that could bring back the owner a lost love or make him invisible. an elaborate ceremony was involved in obtaining the elusive magical bone that included boiling a live cat at the stroke of midnight. once the bone was found it was carried in a mojo bag.

this is the answer i gave on the other thread........lol

 

[Flying Crane]

Well, since Tibetan White Crane is the system I have been most enamored with for a number of years, my name is a spinoff from that.

It's also a name I am keeping in reserve as a business name, for my custom Chinese weaponry business that I am slowly developing.

 

[TheBattousai]

I got mine from the anime series Rurouni Kenshin.

 

[tshadowchaser]

from my cat
Sir Thunder Foot Shadow Chaser

 

[Flying Crane]

from my cat
Sir Thunder Foot Shadow Chaser

As a fellow cat-owner, I can appreciate that name.

 

[shesulsa]

Me too, though my cat would be appropriately named Tail Chaser and I don't think that's too appropriate here .... As it is, my dear feline's name is Vixen ... which very well might become my nick on another forum.

 

[Rich Parsons]

Do I need to explain mine?

:asian:

My little boy's name should be Night Roaming Yowler. Or maybe that's his breed...

 

[Cryozombie]

Technopunk is CYBERPUNK Minus the Cyber (since I am all meat and no machine) and Heavy on the Technology.

And this thread title "Nick Origins" shoud be a superhero.

 

[Cryozombie]

:asian:

Yes... what does it MEAN!!!!!

 

[Rich Parsons]

Yes... what does it MEAN!!!!!

Well to some Richard can be shortened to a term of "endearment" and Parsons is one of the cloth. So . . .

or . . . , It is something I use, I had not choice in it so I punish the rest of the world by using it.

Or it is the name of my father :lol:

 

[Kreth]

Me too, though my cat would be appropriately named Tail Chaser and I don't think that's too appropriate here ....

If cats were named by behavior, my Hanzo (nicknamed Fat Kitty - weight gain after being spayed) would be named Coitus Interruptus. She has a habit of killing the mood by sticking her cold nose in certain areas at the wrong time...

 

[arnisador]

Do I need to explain mine?

Nah, everyone knows you're rich. Thanks for letting me borrow the yacht last week, by the way.
