What does your username mean?

[wraub]

It's my name.

 

[MartinG1957]

Boringly, First Name, Initial of surname and unfortunately, year of birth, I decided that my original choice might get a bit tedious if anyone needed to contact me as it was:


EarschplittenloudenboomerlowdownblastingJockaneseguyfromdaEmeraldIsle

(with abject apologies to Steppenwolf)

 

[poit57]

Poit is just a nonsensical non-word. It may have entered my mind due to "Pinky and the Brain" cartoons, where Pinky would randomly use that as an exclamation, but I chose it because of its randomness and lack of meaning. The 57 is just a random number as a play on so many other screen names with significant numbers tacked on the end.

The great thing is that I don't really have to worry about its availability whenever I need to come up with a screen name for a new service.

Possibly the craziest steely dan piano tune out there. Off of Pretzel Logic

 

[Spectrum]

 

[atomicdog]

Ever heard of George Clinton?

 

[BassTapp]

I've never used tapping before but I guess I just like the sound of the name. It's also a subtle reference to the front cover of London Calling but reducing it from the famous smash to a tap I guess, but even I'm not sure..

 

[MazingerZ]

A mecha anime during the mid 80s;

 

[E.J. T.N.T.]

That I was a dumb@ss once...

 

[waleross]

Nothing

 

[vbchaos]

VB = VolksBoot (it's dutch, meaning "boat for the people"). I used to sail on a boat of this type for a long time
Chaos = The name of my boat back in the time

VB+chaos = vbchaos

 

[DannyBob]

I like Billy-Bob as a name, but I'm called Dan....

 

[Jbassrockboy]

I play a jazz bass, I am of the rock generation... as for the boy... Wishful thinking...

My real name is Ross A, my comfort zone is blues rock, and I also own and love my p bass...

But my p was out for a few years with my son so somehow I came up with my user name that I originally used on dating site and it has now somehow stuck...

Rossa

 

[SpikeSpiegel]

Mine is the main character from an anime with one of the best soundtracks of all time. Since anime is what got me into bass in the first place I couldn't resist.
Cool thread BTW.

 

[fuzzychaos]

It was a name I used in college way back in the early 90's when I was all Hax0r and stuff. I was a Science (Geology, we do it on the rocks) major and was reading a book on Fuzzy Mathematics and one on Chaos Theory, hence when it was time to get a "hacker" name I chose fuzzychaos.

 

[Faith Nicole]

I hosted/administered an Ultima Online shard via an emulator. Actually, I still host it just no one there - hah. Anyway, I was known simply as -G- for the most part so each time I revamped my name it had to start with G. This was simply one of the ones I used which I prefer over the most recent (Galrath - which sounds like I gagged on something )

 

[BassNoobSuomi]

I've been playing for two and a half years, so i'm a bit of a noob. And i'm from finland, Suomi is finnish for finland.

 

[BassCliff]

Hi,

In my case the play on words should be obvious. A Google search shows that it's not even original. Somebody already has the domain name.

Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff
