How did you select your Pseudonym

[Tiger]

Just curious to know how people on this board chose their pseudonyms (such as cad or alexis for example).



My pseudonym is tiger and I chose it because according to the Chinese I was born in the year of the tiger (1974).



Any one interested in discussing how they chose their pseudonyms?

[The Jackal]

For me it was from Carlos The Jackal from the Bourne series,The Day of the Jackal and of course Ilyich Ramirez Sanchez.I used to use this in lots of online games and chat rooms.

[dethslut]

with me, its more like i create an insignificant pseudonym and thenraise it to the level of a superhero.

[Alexis]

We moved to Charlotte from Burbank earlier this year, and I started a new life with a new name here. Alexis is the name I go by at work.....and now everyone knows me by it.

I have a simple enough Muslim name, but my employer insisted that I change it to something more American. Though Alexis is a Greek name, he approved of it.







Btw, my Chinese sign is the Snake.

According to Christian belief: When Adam and Eve were in the Garden of Eden, Satan disguised himself as a snake and lured Eve to take a bite of the forbidden fruit--an apple. And she made Adam have a taste too.





Ahem.....BW, are you listening..?

well it looks like i am a Rat n this is wat the site says abt me:

People born in the Year of the Rat are noted for their charm and attraction for the opposite sex. They work hard to achieve their goals, acquire possessions, and are likely to be perfectionists. They are basically thrifty with money. Rat people are easily angered and love to gossip. Their ambitions are big, and they are usually very successful. They are most compatible with people born in the years of the Dragon, Monkey, and Ox.

I changed my name cuz I HAD to! Not cuz I wanted to, cuz I happen to like my real name anyway. Besides, Im not a wannabe, Im proud of my ethnicity and heritage.

[lonewolf]

I had this handle lonewolf since 1988 mainly because I was very introverted. Later on, coincidentally, it stuck on even more because I was a coder who doesn't like to work in a team (independent coder). And those who chat with me on Yahoo messenger (like Alexis) would know by the picture on the chat window.
