what is in a name?
 

I was taking note of some of the screen names in here, some make sense. others dont: why or where did they come from. mine is cause im 6ft 5 247#'s. and i long one day to be kool

Mine is obvious. liveSTRONG and then the 91 is 1991, the year I was born.

My name is Steve and I drive a Mustang with a 4.6L V8. What an original name. :lol:

I think mine speaks for itself.

Skiahh.... I'm from Maine, originally. You know, land of "pahk the cah" and all. So, skier becomes skiahh. I've been skiing a lot longer than I've been biking or I'd probably be bikahh.

Zen mindset...stuck in corporate hell, hence..."suit"

When I first found this forum and I was signing up, my wife was gone and I had our 5 kids, ages 12, 12, 10, 5, and 4, by myself... and it was raining outside.

Mine is one I have had for a long time based on a motorcyle I owned and loved. A Suzuki GSXR-1100 aka the gixser 11.

Sorebutt... I chose this name when I started riding a road bike.. the sensation was on my mind..:)

Nuff said!! You da man!!

Oh...and TRUST ME...I am a Princess! (but you can call me KAT)

g'day,

mines a long term nickname....shortened version of my surname. I was thinking of changing it to 'cycleprincesses stalker' but then she might be 'on' to me! :D

cheers,

Hitchy

high school nick name that stuck

My name says it for itself. oh, if you are geographically illiterate, NZL = New Zealand :D

I actually do work at a zoo. It's my username on a bunch of different message boards. I try to register on any board I run into that has a subject that interests me. Several of them have had me around for over three years!

I've been on to you for a long time mate... ;)

Damn.....was it the groucho marx nose & glasses that gave it away....or the hat?

my name is justin. my mom used to just call me "jus," and in order to get unter my skin, my sister started calling me "tin." it's a long story.

i also really, really like the song "one tin soldier" by coven (it's in billy jack).

and i am the sloth.

First AMD processor to be faster than Intel at anything...

I'm an extreme version of Yorick. I made up the name years ago when I realized that everyone and their mother had taken "Yorick" and all variations thereof. Oh, and no, I didn't get the name from Hamlet, I got it from an old Sierra game. It's that old.

Free cookie to anyone who knows which game I'm talking about!

The car I long for......aston martin volante mmmmmmmmmmm expensive :D

my 1958 vw type 1 sedan, used for everything... my first motorized transport

:rolleyes: Cerberus is a three headed dog that guarded the entrance to Hades and is also known for Hercules 12th Labor. GL are my initials. Gregory was derived from the Greek word gregoros meaning "watchful, alert". Cerberus is also watchful hence the use as my name.

My nickname is AJ & I traded my 1000cc Vee-twin Ducati ST2 (ST2 "Duk") in on a roadcycle. I used to burn up the highways at 200km+, now I enjoy the view. God I miss that sexy red machine - sigh

catatonic....long story, but the nickname was given to me a while back. About everyone I knew had a different nickname for me....from jack**s, to sparky (when I was learning electronics I had a bad habit of getting electrocuted on a regular basis), to schissekoph (spelling could be off, really embarassing story involving not knowing the language i was trying to speak).

...doesnt help I remind everyone of someone else either....

...basically I jsut zone out from time to time, nothing big, just my mind gets derailed onto a side thought, and next thing you know I'm dead quiet and basically statue like while thinking about it. Oh, and people regularly mistake me for dead when I'm asleep, fell asleep on light rail and someone threw a freaking ammonia inhaler under my nose....it's not my fault my breathing is that shallow when asleep :mad:

Totally the hat...but I appreciate the effort nonetheless!! If you didn't stalk me I would have to take an ad out in the forums, then I would just look desperate! :D
