    It's the name of a song by a band called The Network.

    My user title under my name is also a line from one of their songs. :D

    Here's the video :)

    Mine comes from many years ago from two different situations as I used to watch Blackbelt Jones Films.Also when I did judo and kickboxing they nicknamed me Blackbelt as well as I was too stubborn to fall down to traditional defensive techniques and mastered the ground based headlock at the tender age of 7.:D

    I made this account years ago, it was a line from the Simpsons, they were ina casino and there was A Native American guy with the name. Incredibly sick of it now. Are you able to change your username btw?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,109 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Mine is after my favourite footballer who I have done nothing but obsess about since 1998 when he was 18 and I was 13. A fitting tribute to the guy I feel.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,025 ✭✭✭slipss


    Mine references my affiliation with Stormfront (the ss at the end of my name) and my love of snakes (the sibilant ss at the end of my name).

    I was working my way through the 'dune' books when I picked mine. I kind of wish I'd put more effort into picking a name.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,786 ✭✭✭✭Hagar


    I used to read the Hagar cartoon in the Herald and the name matched an avatar that was available.
    I didn't know about personalised avatars / subscribing etc. at the time otherwise I could have a more exotic name.

    It's an interesting surname anyways.

    Mine came from a Timesplitters deathmatch when I randomly decided to call my character daddio. Kind of fits with my moderated forum now :)
