Your Handle -- Why did you chose it? [Merged]

Howdy you all! Me and bluegel think it would be a good idea to get you to explain where you got your names from. Allow me to start:

THE ORANGE ONE (aka:orange olly)

i got this name because i used to wear a lot of orange clothing from GAP (it used to be in fashion dammit! honestly!) I had bright orange truosers and matching orange body warmer (shudder, can’t believe i used to wear that stuff).

Basically i used to look like a beastie boy.

I don’t wear that stuff now, but the name has stuck with me. (mates think its cute). Also, because of my job i get to wear orange clothing still anyway (im a railway engineer. Railway=high-vis orange clothing. Grr.)

so what are your stories?

This thread has been done and done :stuck_out_tongue:

What are you talking about? This is my real name.

I don’t recall you saying where your alias came from, Soul… And I’m sure I would have remembered. :slight_smile:

This has been discussed before though… Might try to locate that thread…

im a big fan…

hee hee (laughs cos mariofan is funny)

… i just laughed and the people in my office are looking at me strange. I wonder why?

Well, I’m kind of new too, and I didn’t read the previous thread, so here it is:

I came up with the name “Kajinku” when combining the Japanese words “Kawazu” (= frog) and “Kajika” (= singing frog). I kept the “u” from Kawazu and put an “n” to make it easier to pronounce. Why? To have an original nickname.

Anyways, my last name “Depuydt”, has the exact same pronounciation of the Flemish word “de puit”, which means “the frog”. Basically, when saying my full name in Flemish, it means “Mathieu the frog”. Voilà. :slight_smile:
