Pearl Jams original name?

somesoldiers

Triggers birth cert under "Father's Name"- some soldiers

Boom_Bap

The name that I wanted was already in use. So then I just picked the first thing that I heard, I happened to be listening to this song at the time.

Because it's NOT my name

verycool

redlettermedia's mantra mocking the "super fan" by repeating "very cool" in their Nerd Crew shows.

Snowseer

I saw some snow.

Hector Savage

When I was a kid myself and my brother rented The Naked Gun on VHS ... we thought it was the funniest film ever made, the next week we rented The Naked Gun 2 1/2 - One of the bad guys Hector Savage was in the 2nd film, I always found it a funny spoof villian name.

Its something deep and meaningful to me in my life that I will treasure and cherish fowever

You could have been more flamboyant with, indecisive or undecided

Ragnar Lothbrok

Legendary Viking - almost God-like.

Bit like myself, really :cool:

Day Lewin

My first boardsie username was a bit too identifying: so I deliberately chose a new one that would be gender-neutral and have no indicators of age, location, orientation or anything else.

It was a Monday. Name is the Irish for Monday. (I am willing to be identified as an Irish speaker.)

ARNOLD J RIMMER

Red Dwarf is my all time favourite TV show

...........and you picked the most annoying, irritating, lame, weedy, character in the show?

Surely The Cat or Kryten would have been better, cooler usernames

Rubberlegs

It's the name a relative used to call me as a child because I could never stay still, alway bouncing around the place

Tweeter

Named after the high frequency driver in a loud speaker.
Nothing to do with twitter which I despise

Agent Smith

Johnny Banana was taken

Kevin Finnerty

After a character James Gandolfini played in The Sopranos. Got to see him live with Jeff Daniels on broadway in God of Carnage. Some presence he had.

It's a shorter variation of a name I used for Vampire The Masquerade/Mage the Ascension RP characters.

It's also a shorter version of the nick I used for Asheron's call. And my first character for Dark Age of Camelot (since my longer nick was taken).

Shorter is easier.

I tried to think of two unrelated nouns

Trigger Happy

Jason McAteer and Roy Keane has an on field spat when I was registering on boards for the first time. Trigger was mcateers nickname.
The Happy bit was added on because of my perpetual good mood.

Taytoland

Because your crisps are ****e compared to ours.

Purple Mountain
