Hi everybody!
I've been on the forums for a few months now and have learned many people's online names. I thought it would be cool if we explained why our names are what they are and how we thought of them.
I'll start off. Well, I'm Sunny G. I thought of my online name when a friend and I were recording a public service video advising against chewing tobacco. I was wearing my sunny shirt (http://liquidblue.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/tshirts.detail/cat/aerospace/subcat/space/CODE/11102/sun-moon.html) at the time and needed a name (Cuz' I was the health expert). The name fit perfectly.
Also I chose this name because I really like orange juice (Sunny D) and my real name starts with G.
What about you?

Fairies will die when not enough people believe in them.. I think to each and one of us... we should have faith in our dreams... support others in their endeavors... Just Like tinkerbell... gives light and spice to happy people!

Well, mine isn't that interesting. It just gives people three pieces of information about me(which now that I come to think of it, isn't very smart) I'm azn (asian), my first name is chong, and I was born in 1991 (91). Ta-da! (I actually sort of copied from one of my friends, but i liked it, so sticked with it)

The 65 pounds of unconditional love in my avatar picture is named Noggin. I was going to use that name as my handle in World War II Online (http://wwiionline.com/scripts/wwiionline/index.jsp), but someone was already using it; so I selected NogDog, which is what my sister-in-law sometimes calls Noggin. I decided it had a nice ring to it, so I used it here as well.

Originally I had chosen the online handle of NonSanity, just sort of popped into my head. But I forget where, it was already taken, so I needed to come up with a new handle. Came up with the very unoriginal MstrBob (Mister Bob, Mr. Bob, get it?). So, yeah.

Mine has a bit of a story
Many moons ago I had a childhood friend named John... he was cuban. He said nick you are an ugly fart. He told me in cuba the word for fart is Peo (it is pelo in other dialects)... and of course feo is ugly. He then started calling me Peo Feo... so there you have it.

ditto.
My username comes from my background as a star wars junkie. My j when I wrote the jedi master once sort of messed up: it looked like a u. So I kept on the joke, and my nick became theuedimaster.

I came up with my name when I liked the word "ultimate" and I wanted a name to express somewhere along the lines "I am the best", so I added an "r" to make it a noun -- even though it's not a word. Similar to turning "dominate" into "dominater". Please don't make a mockery of my username just because it's on the selfish side -- it's a cool name, get your own!

Well, i dont know about my name, just used it one day like 4 years ago signing up to a site, and now use it for every site, no one else uses it so it stuck with me. But yeh its pretty obvious what it means.
I was 14 when i started with my own personal site that i got free with my very fast 56k connection at the time, then i sorta lost it for a while as i was experiencing the joys of teenage hood, and just got back into it this year, being 20. So im starting to grow up a bit too. :( lol

that might be difficult, because new very young users sign up every day, but you might want to search the youngest from 200+ post or something like that
