What is the story of your nick?

Postby Boso on Sun Oct 30, 2005 10:49 pm

So, what is the story o fyour nick? Wher did you received it or why gave it to you.

Mine comes from my work. Most of the customers I’m in touch with are Spanish speakers and they cannot pronounce my real name Bozhimir (Божимир). So I started to introduce myself as Boso, later the colleagues started to call me like this and that’s it Smile.

Well that's pretty interesting. My name is actually composed of two parts...

I used to play this game where my nickname was Pimpinh0ez.

I have been called 'dawny' ever since I was a small child. My family, friends, everyone...

So I kinda stuck them together... pimpdawny

Actually, I sing as well... folk/pop/country - and my stage name is dawny. Smile
mhmm... kthx!!

I've been MegFunc before. But then me and my friend founded a programming group. We called us MasterMind and his nickname was Chosen while mine was Freak. My friend recommended that nickname, because he (still) thinks that I'm a freak. =)

Thus my nickname comes from a combination of MasterMind and Freak. I like to write things in lower-case, so mm_freak resulted. I have a secondary nickname: NevergreeN. It used to be my away-nickname on IRC, but then I started to be marked as away all the time, so people wouldn't bother me. Then I decided to make it another nickname for me, because I liked that nickname.

Now I'm equally well known as mm_freak and NevergreeN. =)

Oh crap, I totally mixed it up. My nickname is usually fishyfish, that's why I said I liked fish.

This is the timeline of the nick zogo: Wicked -> zli (serbian for evil), then zlee, then just a simple z, then occasionally zogoscope, and finally zogo.

It doesn't mean anything. I'm not really evil.

evolved from the baseball player, first my nickname was j-rod, (my name is jared) then it turned into k-rod, then krod Wink

Mine's "White Panther" in not-technically-correct Spanish. All the panthers around here (most of them are in the Carolinas and Florida, but close enough) are black, so a white panther would kinda be the odd-one-out. Generally when I'm around a group, I realize that there's at least one major thing that marks me out (what that thing is varies from group to group), so I picked something that wouldn't be normal.

well I used to have the nick Grim but then I noticed kind of a lot of people were using this nick so I had to add some part to it.
While I was listening to some songs I heard the word BlasPhemy and I thought it was a cool word so I added that, lol
