>>>Negative Zero<<<
Well...... I've choosen it because it sounds cool, I can't really describe it. But if you want an explanation, here it is..... I first herd of it in some SF movie( I don't remeber it)...... it was some point in space....... something about teleportation...... or some form of star.... anyway..... stuff like that.....and I remeber the line: ,,A point only described as negative zero". I liked it and..... ta-ta-ta-tam...... my new nickname !!!

Oh, I expected something about the One's complement on binary numbers... the only place I ever encountered a negativ zero...

Well I think everybody know who Dj Tiesto is. (If not please look after it on the internet ) He is the nr. 1 dj and i like his music, so that's why I chosen his name as my nickname.

I wouldn't go as war as calling him number 1 and i bet there are people out there who don't know him...
I actually don't know much more then his name right now... although I seldomly can identify songs i hear by name or artist anyway

But just taking a name of an actual living artist you like is kinda weird... I would only use character names or something similar, but i guess that's your choice

I always loved magic, why I used first "WizHard" as nick (Wizard was always already taken)
Later, becoming very close to i little communoty, using that nick was disturbing since nobody was able to write it correctly that's why three girls there (called herselves the Women In Black) called me Wiz, and was adopted by everyone. Then now I use it everyday
In real life, more people know me as "Wiz" than as my real name

Weird... I know very few people with really different nicknames in real life... a few people i know are called by slightly modified first or last names...
Currently trying to think of anyone with a nick not clearly namerelated... nope can't come up with anything...

Take my both first names and my last name. Take two first letters from them...and look, you got JaMaHa.

Well wiz i also know a person who we refer only by nick Rusty!!! Well i just wanted to show you its not unique to have yourname replaced by a nick
Negative Zero is that movie Stargate SG1 by any chance???

The nickname i us usually is deeg.at^..

deeg... its my last name
.at .. i am form austria
^... it looks good

Im glad people still think of there names when there making the nicks its good always to remember who you are.
Nice idea JaMaHa and dee.at

Yea i think like this its the best. I hate it if somone Comes in a Cs game ind is named Unnamed or sth like that .. The real nem is the best name

well as for me, I'm no saint. In fact im the complete opposite of my nickname. I got it from the movie the saint starred by val kilmer and he uses saints name when he introduce himself coz he's a thief. oh well somethin like that. I'm also a thief, i steal chicks' hearts!

My nick represents a dinosaur species resembling T-REX and geticus is related to Dacia former country in today Romania check wikipedia for further info.
I chose it cuz hmmmm i thought it was original combines a dinosaur species((( yes i like dinosaurs)))))) with my home country and its pretty obscure also

Krezarian.... Krezarian... hmm...

I have chosen it, because... well, I would call it "destiny"

Woh, without saying that I will have tought you had a 'lamer' nick, by the way or alternate upper and lower cases! What an error that I we all refer a bit to the nicks before talking to someone.

My first trys on the web were with "Clem", coming from my name "Clément", but did not used it very long. Not that I don't like it, I just don't like having a nick without no story telling what I love, what I am.
Our name comes from our parents, I don't know why we would be obligated to refer to it, we are not our own parents!

Yes wiz but your name is a way of keeping there legacy and showing your bond with it. I perssonaly like my real name Ilie Sebastian ; it's so darn long people at school gave up on making fun of it cuz they were tired before they could pronounce it
