How did you come up with your login (nickname)?

[Erci]

"Erci" (pronounced Err-key) became my nickname about 10 years ago when my friends and I started communicating via Yahoo Messenger. One of my friends averages about 7 typos per word and he kept typing my name (Eric) as "Erci" and it stuck

How about you? Does your login mean anything?

 

[Lefty]

I almost lost my left hand in a car accident 12 years ago and since then my wife has always called me lefty even though I'm naturally right handed. :BLAA:

 

[Bram]

BRAM stands for Big Random Ass Maniac....


no, Actually it's just my name

 

[motojoe122]

Mine started back in jr high, my friends and I all rode bmx. All the jumps we found, I was the first to try...some not so successfully. I became "superjoe". Years later, we rode motocross...it just evolved into motojoe. :rockon:

 

[Andz]

It's just short for Andrew.... and is also the personal plate on my bike

 

[Popeye70]

"Popeye70" consist of two parts, "Popeye" (the sailing man) because i love sailing and does so every week during summer, and "70" which is the year i was born.

I first used the nick at a dating site 6-7 years ago, letting the nick offer those two clues as to who I am as a person. Later the nick just stuck and is used all around on forums and other sites, so if you see the nick somewhere on the internet it could be me...

 

[discgolfdude]

I like to play Disc Golf, I've been playing for about 6 years. I'm not that great as some of the guys and gals I have played with. I started using this on disc golf forums and such, and I started a blog with it too.

 

[CHEMIKER]

Chemiker means Chemist in German. I'm proud to be a Chemist and since I studied a fair amount of German to get my degree, I took Chemiker.

 

[lonesoldier84]

I am alone and live a life of great tragedy.

 

[sxty8goats]

Back in the mid 90's when I first hopped this thing called the internet, I owned a 1968 GTO Convertable. I tried a bunch of names when I first signed up with Compuserve and they all were taken. The GTO is often given the nickname "The Goat" sxty8goats fit the 10 character limit of the site and seemed better than sixty8goat. I've been using it since.

[Botch]

Took it off my license plate:

(My last name is Boettcher; I've been "Botch" since Jr High...)

 

[wolfe1down]

My first apartment was on Wolfe Avenue, and when I signed up for XBox Live I needed an account name. I also like food. Thus Wolfe1Down - a clever play on rapidly eating food.

 

[Dr.Landau]

Anyone remember KingDiamond?
A recurring character on the Conspiracy album, Dr. Landau

"My faviorate Dr. Landau, O' God I hate his breath"

Just stuck in my head one day, and while I am in the medical field, a doctor I am not.

 

[no.1partsguy]

My nickname no.1partsguy has stuck for the last 9 years my employee badge number at Napa is number 1 and I am a parts guy. Not a good story behind it but it works. :rockon:

 

[FZ1inNH]

Ummmm...... no explanation needed.

 

[Pauly_V]

My name is Pauly_V. The login I use on my 'home' motorcycle website is "Isaac's Papa"... Isaac is my 11 year old son.

 

[FB400]

I've been a fan of 1st gen Pontiac Firebird (1967 to 1969) since I was 12. By the time I was 23 I picked up a convertible of that vintage but immediately wanted the 400 inch big block bad boy, holy grail of that era.

That 400 model has eluded me for over 20 years. It was too expensive then and has continued to get more expensive up to now (Still out of reach). and oh yeah somewhere along the way I tacked a list of stuff I wanetd my 400 inch ci dream F'Bird to have - a 4 speed, numbers matching, deluxe interior, hood tach, , power windows, disc brakes, etc. The thing is way out of reach.

Ah ha, but though there is good news!! Bikes are so easily attainable. Just a few thousand for a turnkey Fz6!! I always wanted a bike since 12 too.. so at least that dream came true. And I just took the Firebird out of registration for the first time in over 20 years. With the bike, I really don't think I will miss driving it.

Erci: btw, this is a great thread topic!!
