Nicknames

totokan · Post by **totokan** » Sun Feb 26, 2006 6:47 pm

I am totokan, because I thought I was being original. A quick google search reveals I am a member of many places, but there are a lot of foreign places I've never seen before with my name on them...

Motoman · Post by **Motoman** » Sun Feb 26, 2006 7:00 pm

I am motoman because (well sad as it is) i found this site and needed a username and just took the first thing that i saw, which happened to be my Cellphone. Also ironically the first 3 letters in "Motoman" spelled backwards, is my name. Funky.

Well you see we had this church activity "all night lazer tag, With the 'Z'". and i had to come up with a name. My friend became "deathworm88" and i became Dr.Weasel. I never really had any reason to use it again until the "Halo Lan crazy" came around. "We played 12-16 man every sunday at my friends apartment." So it stuck to me when i pulled 2nd place almost every game.

I know what that's like. The username I used for many forums (taur0s02) was the password for my dad's computer. I had no capacity to think of something original and people are constantly asking me the meaning of it.

As for my current name, I'm not as much a Weebl and Bob fan as I used to be, but I just like the name Weebl. It reminds me of cheese for some reason.

I love playing games....though I didn't want a screen name like Gamelover. the "o" just didn't fit right...so, I got rid of it!

I am now Gamelver, meaning someone who loves games

Take your pick:

Java

Code: Select all

String username = firstname && lastname.charAt(0);

Visual Basic

Code: Select all

Dim username
username = firstname & Mid(lastname, 1, 1)

for VB, why not Left(lastname,1)? Isn't that more effecient?

Mine:

Cows go quack, my friend and I were thinkin' too hard at the time.

daguuy · Post by **daguuy** » Sun Feb 26, 2006 9:52 pm

mine started a looooooooong time ago when i started playing starcraft. back then i didn't have too much creativitive so here'show my name evolved into daguuy:
1. i wanted my name to be "the guy"
2. no spaces were allowed so it became "theguy"
3. that was taken so i tried "daguy" because "da" = "the"
4. that was taken so i added an extra u to make "daguuy." there is only 1 "g!" my name is not dagguy!
5. i thought that was a cool name and nobody else ever uses it so i use it for everything

G-force · Post by **G-force** » Sun Feb 26, 2006 9:58 pm

My names kinda silly. But then they all are.

My first name is Gabriel, and I had just watched Star Wars so I took the "G" from my name and added "-force". It also just happened to be something involving gravity, what a coincidence!
