Subject: How did you come up with your screen name?
Mine is simple. My name is John and i live in Ecorse, which really isnt a Ghetto, but me and good ol' Monaco Chris like to joke around about it. So therefore Ghetto John was born.
Now how did you come up with yours.
Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
I think this has been done before, but my screen name is pretty simple: My name is Don and I'm crazy. I was a Weird Al wannabe, so I came up with Crazy Don. Originally I spelled it as one word and no caps.
Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
i jumbled some letters around and hey presto... i got this name.
only joking, it's the title of a song by Deftones.
Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
because my name is Jim A...and I'm Real (but not in the J-Lo sense ;) ;D
Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
We did do this some time ago, but we have so many new people here now, I don't mind sharing again. :)
Originally, my screen name was just Kat, which is a variation of my real name.
Both of my e-mail addresses are xenakat13, and that makes for a longer story.
I became a fan of the Xena tv show at a very difficult time in my life. They were showing episodes out of regular order for some reason, leaving me with a five-week period of shows that seemed to mirror what I was going through: betrayal by someone I thought loved me, physical injury, complete lack of sympathy and downright hostility from people I thought were my friends, and having nowhere to turn for help (or so I thought). Even fictional, the show helped inspire me to get out of the bad situation I was in and make a better life for myself and my daughter.
Any time I would get discouraged, I would tell myself that it could be worse, I could have a whole Roman Legion, or a pack of angry demi-gods after me. ;) ;)
As for the number thirteen, my ex was wildly superstitious about it, and anything he doesn't like, can't be all that bad.
Put it all together, and it's my own little inspirational message to myself.
Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
DJ Midas is my DJ name. Came up with it in '97 after hearing a DJ at a local club train-wreck his mixes...this guy su-HUCKED. My buddy heard the awful noise and commented, "he just doesn't have that golden touch like you do..." hence the name was taken right after that.
I started visiting this messageboard back in '99, just trying to find some info on the 80's. At first I usually just answered "what song is this?" questions, but as time passed I got hooked and disclosed a little more about myself.
I LOVE THIS PLACE! :D (Man, I could go for some Burger King right about now...)

Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
Well, let's see, uhhhh... My name's Sammy Reed. So I guess that's how I got this name.
Anyway, on the earliest posts I did, I wasn't a member yet, so it appeared as Sammy Reed in black letters.

Well, about 4 years ago I joined a bagpipe band and took up the pipes, so I figured this name would be easy for people to remember me by. I in fact don't play the pipes anymore but I do play the drums for the band still. However, I plan on taking the pipes back up in the spring, but somehow TenorDrumChick doesn't seem to have the same ring to it :)

My name represents my philosophy on life.
It's a kind of joke because taoism isnt really an 'ism' at all.
Tao means 'way' in chinese, Taoism is simply following the way. My philosphy is very close to 'wu wei' which means 'no action'. I take no action against the natural order of things! (sometimes known as 'laziness' ;) )

When I was a kid they actually had live bands at school and church dances. Some of these bands really sucked! But once in a while you'd see a good one.
The best band that played at school and church dances when I was in high school was called Eli Sheol. All of the guys in that band went to Jordan High in Sandy, Utah back in the 70's(as did I).

I have been Catwoman for many, many moons now. I have always been a big cat lover. When I got on-line, I couldn't have just Catwoman so I added the "ofV" to show where I am from-Venus. lol. Some places I use the entire thing-CatwomanofVenus. I DID NOT get the name from Batman. In fact, I have been Catwoman longer than Michelle Pfiffer but not longer than Julie Newmar.

One night a friend and I went to a party we hardly knew anyone. We introduced ourselves to a group of females and I gave the name Race Bannon, don't know why, haven't seen a Jonny Quest episode in 20 years, it just popped in my head. The funny thing was the next week I was talking with my friend when he starts laughing it up, seems he called one of those women and in the course of the conversations she asks how's Race? He go's who? Your friend, Race Bannon. We both got a chuckle out of it. So since then when I need to choose a member name I go with it.

One night a little over 33 years ago my mom had this baby that she decided to name David (actually my grandparents first suggested the name, inspired by the biblical ruler of the same name), me.
After around 32 years had passed I found this web site and decided to join. After much agonizing, I finally arrived at a screen name that would incorporate a form of my given name with a whimsical ending. An alternate nic I had in mind was "Davemeister" as a good friend used to call me.

I've been using mine for quite awhile. When I signed for Yahoo and needed a name and I thought hey I'm a bassist in metal band so let's go with that. I tried MetalBass and Bassplayer but didn't like the ring and then rage popped into my head and ragebass was born. Funny thing is that with Yahoo I have a numeral after my tag because apparently I wasn't the first to use ragebass. I chose not use my full moniker because I always liked the way ragebass sounded by itself.

Well, mine comes from my first song parody at Amiright, "God Bless the N.R.A." I envisioned that song from a "redneck" point-of-view, so I signed it as "Bubba." Afterwards, when I decided to submit more parodies, I wanted them all to be under the same name, so...I was kinda stuck with it.

Which is precisely why I don't support the new lineup...I just can't get into look and sound alikes. But that's a whole new argument!!
Glad there are still some out there that miss him too.

Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
It just popped into my mind. Originally, I wanted to pick "Sifl", "Electric Youth", "Post PC Person",or "Pop Rocks", but I nixed those names. Not to mention I strongly dislike current MTV & reality shows. And I'm not a hip person.
I only like music & some tv shows from the 1950's to 1998.
And some movies. Why "Anti Pop Superstar"?
Because It sounds like I really dislike current pop culture.
The same with my quote,"Say No To T.R.L.".

I got mine several years ago when a friend of mine named Carlos and I wanted to open up a buisness together, when we got older, and we where going to call it Kenlos Enterpise. The Kenlos came from the first part of my name Kenneth and the last part of his name Carlos. And I just thought Kenlos sounded cool.
Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
well, my name here, oddxsocks, came from some program my dad was using. well...sort of. in this program, he had to create schedule for a hypothetical band called four coffee. i kept using that reference in comics i'd draw, and eventually, it got changed to odd socks, because my socks rarely match. therefore, they are odd. the x was there because of my other alias, doxers the Great. doxers the Great originated from PA_Doxie, which was short for pennsylvania dachshund. "doxie" got turned into "doxers," which i read as "boxers," and the story just goes downhill from there... :)

Not sure I really need to say it, but I may as well! Umm, I was a big time 'Duranie' (what Duran Duran fans were called) back in the day, and am still a fan. Back in the early 90's when I first got a computer, the first time a screen name was required for something, I just came up with Durania. I wanted it to be Durannia at first, but whatever I was signing up for wouldnt accept it with 2, so I made it Durania and that's me! :-*

My Jedi name it is.
Some friend sent me what was considered the "official" Jedi naming system from George Lucas. I tried it, got this result, liked it, and it stuck. I've been using it as an alias for 7 years now. I'm not big into Star Wars or anything, but i do like the series so i figured, ahhh....

Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
I thought I would bring this thread forward because it would be lovely for new members to get to know the reasons behind the names.
My name is Robert. I couldn't put it as a username so, as the computer accepted 'Bobby' I thought this was close enough. I didn't like the idea at first but it's grown on me. :)
Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
I use Anotheronebitesthedust...(or Anotheronebitesthe cos the dust wouldn't fit in) because that was the first song i downloaded from Audio Galaxy, by Clint Eastwood & General Saint, not the Queen song!
I type as boris because it's easier for people and I didn't want to use Malcolm.

Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
Well the "Mike" part is short for "Michael," which was the name given to me by my parents mainly because it was also my mom's brother's name, and my dad's brother's name, as well as a traditional name in the Florio family to name the first born, but in my family, it wasn't followed that way, and the seccond born got the name, "Michael"...It was shortened because I made it while I was submitting parodies under two different names, "Mike" and "Michael," and I submitted the ones Id assume to do better under "Mike"...so I made that into my sn...
and the "Florio" part, well everyone else in my family had that name, so I adapted it as well...thus my name being: "Mike Florio"
Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
well, you see, my love for everything Vulcan gave me my name.......since my idol is Harriot beacher Stow, i felt I had to adapt this name ....lol

I got mine from the Steps single Stomp. They were an excellent group and I still listen to them occasionally.
Subject: Re: How did you come up with your screen name?
You figure it out.
nah, It's because I was angry at the time I joined. I felt like tearing the world apart - Really my name shoulda been WorldTearedApart63 - or something. It's just I was angry at that time. TAH-DAH!!!!!!!
I'll just give you my little Newspaper report I would've liked for this -
