"Where did the idea for your username come from?"

Apart from the pretty self explanatory ones (first names etc), where did you get the idea for your SR username?

Mines pretty self explanatory (also: boring) - initials and age.

But where did the ideas for yours come from? We've got some pretty wierd ones and I'd be interested to know.

My story was the best.
My story is always the best.
I enjoy worms.

You're right, that is weird but more intresting than my story.

Well mine is my name but there is a wierd story as to how I got it. My Mum and Dad used to be part of a religion called Subud, where you sent off to a man in Tibet who sent you back a letter of the alphabet, you had to send 5 names back begginig with that letter and then you got back the name you were going to call your child. It was supposed to be a way of allowing God to choose your name.

Ros

was called Kid Rock once upon a time, every one called me KR so i changed it to that.

Mines is simply because of my hair. When I was younger, and my hair fuzzier, I stuck 30 (yes, 30) full length colouring pencils in my hair and they all stayed put for 30 seconds.

Claim to fame that is!

Meh.

This wasn't my first nickname. I was once called, as many people will NOT ave known, as Agathie. "Agathie" being the sound the martians made when they were shot in Perfect Dark. :-D

Then, when I was off the site for too long and I had to start again, I chose Shocktrooper, also off Perfect Dark - just a plain, simple, baddie.

Ingenious.

Mine is oh so simple, i had new neighbours move in and they are always shouting stuff and one of my mates came round and heard them say something, which i can not repeat, and he said nasty and i said nasty neighbour.
And when i was thinking of a name it just came to me so i used it.

No, don't lie Mr. Chips. Look, go to my little post called Beyond Special Reserve in FOGchat and see the real explanation!
