Title: Whats the inspiration behind your screen name??
Post by: Loaded NightraiN on November 09, 2007, 08:16:46 AM
Thought it would be fun to get the story behind some people screen names around here....


Where did you get it from??  Did someone else crown you with the name, etc??


Should be pretty obvious where mine came from... I always had a hard time picking a name I liked.. Then Loaded Nightrain, just dawned on me...
Thought it was kinda badass, so I stuck with it  :hihi:

How about you?

my dad was watching enter the dragon and the english dude goes "SOME TEA MRLEE?" so he then named me lee, but calls me mrlee as a joke and its just a name that got stuck with me growing up.

Mine is just the combination of my first name (Nicolas) and the last name of my favorite actor (Mickey Rourke).

My username is "Estranged?", because Nico was already taken when I registered at HTGTH ;)

Mine was pretty much from coincidence.?

My old barracks room in the Army was 213.
When I moved from there to a house, the address was 213.
I moved from there back to Pennsylvania and the apartment I rented turned out to be 213.

The streak has since ended, but it was neat for a while.

It's my pen name for writing screenplays, as opposed to when I work as a journalist I use my real name. Yes, my first name is Jonathan. No, I won't tell you my last name.

Lil' Bush meets Butters from Southpark - combined two names I've used on this site.


I think its time for a change again though.  Change is good.

He does seem to be on theri every time you turn aaround. I also like the fact  that he doesn't seem to take himself to serious.

It's my first name.   Yeah I know, not too exciting, but I'm unimaginative when it comes to forum names, and it never seems to be taken already until I grab it for myself.   ;D

Being of Hungarian descent, "gypsy" was the nickname my mom always called me.? I think mainly because she would say that I "dressed like a gypsy" or had "gypsy hair" and the name just sorta stuck so I guess it was true.? :hihi:
?

"GypsySoul" is from my fav Van Morrison song Into the Mystic:

INTO THE MYSTIC

We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic

And when that fog horn blows I will be coming home
And when the fog horn blows I want to hear it
I don't have to fear it
And I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
Then magnificently we will fold into the mystic


When that fog horn blows you know I will be coming home
And when that fog horn blows I gotta hear it
I don't have to fear it
And I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will fold into the mystic
Come on girl . . .

^GypsySoul rocks.   8) 

Axl4Prez2004.  Let's just say I thought Axl would make a better candidate for president than either of the choices available to me in the 2004 U.S. presidential election.  How cool would those press conferences be?  They'd always start close to midnight.  The opening chords to Jungle would summon Axl to the Oval Office.   :D

From a song called The Becoming, which deals about struggle of human and inhuman inside us, change for worse,forgetting how to feel,  losing battles and what not. I'm not sure why I picked this particular (part of) verse from the song as my screen name.

All in all, it's a very stupid screen name to have  :-\

years and years ago when I first got a computer and had to come up with a Yahoo screen name, I couldn't think of anything.  My friend had lent me his "Diablo: Hellfire" game.  It was on my desk...so I went with it.  "hellfire" was already taken...so I added the "can" at the end because I am Canadian.

Well the name says it all - I have done many crazy things in my life and cultivated that nickname which started by friends and not me - when I looked at this board, I realized most people already had cool names so I just went with my nickname. and of course my name is Cheryl. For real peeps. I'm not planning on running for a public office so I don't really care if someone can identify me.

Honestly, I don't know what's wrong with having a screename like that. It's just a reunion kind of thing. He could have all the same people in the NEW band, but along with the old members. O.o

Axl wouldn't want a reunion anyways though, so whatevz.. XDD
