Why did you pick your name?

gimli-son-of-gloin13 · 01-03-2003, 01:45 PM

because when I picked it, I was in a "gimli" mood

Blackboar · 01-03-2003, 02:25 PM

I picked mine because well, I don't know really.

I keep thinking now that I picked somthing like enouther Maiar or any remotely LotRsey.

I really wish I did now!!

Falagar · 01-03-2003, 02:29 PM

Haven't this been done before?
Anyway, I got my name from Heroes of Might and Magic II, one of the warlocks there were called Falagar.

Now it has almost become a second name, I use it everywhere I go on the internet.

Blackboar · 01-03-2003, 02:33 PM

I use Blackboar everywhere I go on the internet but I really wish I picked something else!!

It is just the 1st thing that popped into my head and I feel a bit strange saying my name is "pig"

I was eating a carrot when inspiration hit me.

Hanza · 01-03-2003, 02:51 PM

half a nickname my old friend gave me. It was Hanza Bonanza.

Iron McFist · 01-03-2003, 03:06 PM

It's been so long since I chose this name for other places, that I've forgotten. I think I heard something close to this on a TV show. I know I didn't hear this exact thing, though.

BeardofPants · 01-03-2003, 03:07 PM

This has been done countless times before. And no, I'm not explaining what my name means again. So there.

wahine · 01-03-2003, 03:14 PM

Beard of Pants.

Ironically, I was sifting through old threads and the like and found why "Beard of Pants" is your name. The search is very nice.

Wahine is the Hawaiian term for a women, preferably attractive, but it has since morphed into a term used for a water-junky-female. Or Boardhead chick. etc. etc.

(the Who? right? )

Aha. See I just asked this in the newbie thread. Wahine in maori also means "woman."

Adrian Baggins · 01-03-2003, 05:11 PM

Adrian is my main character in all of my stories and she is always Frodo's sis. Okay so at first it was Adrian Fieona Fay Baggins but that was too long of a user name so I shortened it to just Adrian. I really like that name. Well so anyway to make a long story short. I wanted a way to get close to Frodo and I liked the name Adrian so I made Frodo a sis and made her name Adrian.

zavron · 01-03-2003, 05:27 PM

I picked my name because...because...Let me just file through the Old memory banks.....Aha! Here it is!!! It was a Name I've used among friends since I was four years old. I never really use it now. So in Tribute to my Old Nickname I used it for my Username!

Gwaimir Windgem · 01-03-2003, 05:29 PM

I just made up a name in Sindarin.

L@ur@y Elven Warrior · 01-03-2003, 06:43 PM
