What does your username mean??

christie_greece 09 Sep 10 at 11:29 a.m. GMT

I've seen really clever username on this site, and I've also seen some that I can't explain. Why did you chose this username???

Well I chose christie_greece because I wanted something rellevant to AC. My real name is Christine, and my friends usually call me Christie. But the username christie was unavailable. I really liked it thought, so I decided to change it into christie_greece so that anyone can see I'm greek and forgive me about my mistakes in English. :D

This is my story. I look forward hearing your stories!!!!

There is no real intresting story behind my username! Brigid is my first name and McMorrow my last, so I kind of combined them.

I'm named after my pet duck, sadly deceased.

Could be worse, could be the other way around!

Mine is Snowy Mountains Mick (all one word in my user name). Pretty simple, I was working as the Manager of Security at a prison far, / afforestation camp in the Snowy Mountains in New South Wales, Australia, when I had to come up with a username for another online community. First thing that popped into my head, it has been one of my nicknames ever since.

"nathatanu0"

nothing clever.. I don't wanted to waste time on choosing that clever username !!!

so, "nathatanu0"="nath"+"atanu"+"0"

"nath" is my second name which means "SAVIOR"... 

"atanu" is the name of the God of Love in Hindu Mythology, the meaning of the word is as follows:

"atanu"="a"+"tanu"

"tanu" means "body" or "appearance" or "form" adding an "a" is a negative effect... so "a-tanu" means, the one who has not own any body... that is who is form-less or have no physical appearence... God of Love was burned to ashes by God Shiva and after that as he lost his body he was named as "Atanu" but his actual name was "Kamadev"... "Kama" is the same that of "kama-sutra"... "Kama" means love or passion... and "sutra" is "formula".... 

Lastly I will talk about the "0" at the end... "0" I always add at the end to remind myself that in this whole universe where even the age of earth is like a bubble to the ocean of the time scale of the Universe... so I am nothing but "zero"... so that is why "0"...........

A_N_Omynous 23 Dec 11 at 12:09 a.m. GMT

I chose A_N_Omynous for a few reasons. First, similar to U_N_Owen (In And Then There Were None), my username would be anonymous. I realized that if I switched the 'n' and 'm' it would be pronounced 'ominous' which I thought sounded cool as an Agatha Christie username. So I ended up with A_N_Omynous.

de_misteri 15 Dec 11 at 1:37 a.m. GMT

I'm getting my book published!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

de_misteri 14 Nov 11 at 11:45 p.m. GMT

My name is de_misteri

It means "Murder Mystery" in Catalan, a language spoken in Spain (I was in Barcelona when I set up my account)

ErkutSoyer 25 Jul 11 at 9:33 a.m. GMT

Soyer:My surname

popbubble 25 Jul 11 at 8:57 a.m. GMT

my username is pop ´cause my name is poppy, and bubble is just random!!! 

Dolly_B 08 Jul 11 at 7:38 p.m. GMT

My user name is after a favourite character in a favourite book "The Body in the Library."  Her name was Dolly Bantry and she was a good friend of Jane Marple.

na_well 01 Jul 11 at 5:10 a.m. GMT

My username is sort of the pronounciation of my given name (Nahuel). In Spanish we do not pronounce the "h" so my name would be like saying na-uel (stressing the second part). But I thought it would be cooler to add well, which sounds similar to uel in Spanish.

belgian_in_ireland 26 Jun 11 at 5:35 p.m. GMT

My username is simple.  I was born and lived in Belgium until I was 38 and then moved to Ireland.  So I'm Belgian in Ireland.

Nofret 23 Jun 11 at 11:12 a.m. GMT

Fascinated by the story behind your username, Nightrayduck, I'd been wondering about it for some time. I chose Nofret because I love Egypt, not only as a great place to holiday, but a fascinating ancient civilisation to study. Really enjoyed Death Comes as the End, what a lot of research went into the creation of Imhotep's household. Unfortunately I found the heroine, Renisenb, completely wet and uninteresting, so took on the persona of the dark, sultry temptress (I'm actually blonde!)

Belgian_Bulldog

I chose my name because I have been saying for many years that, if I ever got a French bulldog, I would name him Hercule, and whenever anyone said, "oh, what a cute little French bulldog," I would say, in my best Poirot voice, "he is NOT a little French bulldog!  He is a little BELGIAN bulldog!"

LOL! Nice idea :)

Yes Agatha is a great name but I don't know someone with this name in person =( Ray, PLEASE go on looking for a publisher! It would be great if I could read something of this "stuff"  someday!

regards =)

christie_greece 21 Jun 11 at 1:59 p.m. GMT

My sister's name is Agatha, too! :)

NightRayDuck 21 Jun 11 at 6:06 a.m. GMT

@Agathasmykid - That's so nice! Agatha is a classy name. :-)

NightRayDuck 21 Jun 11 at 6:04 a.m. GMT

Thank you christie! Thank you Laura! I do write a lot of stuff. I just need to focus on finding publishers or editors.. My imagination runs too wild and then I forget to find a publisher, lol.
