I chose this name as a tribute to my favorite comic book character. Green Lantern
specifically Hal Jordan from the silver age of comics. although the name is intended to pay homage to all the Green Lanterns. I'm just a big kid at heart. my comic and action
figure collection is the only thing that can draw my attention away from the greatest game ever created, which I'm sure all of know is Thief
Thwark on 20/10/2000 at 08:15
So when I started going online, and needed a username, I chose "Anarchy Divine" after one of my favorite Fates Warning songs, and a song the band i was in was *supposed* to cover :-P
Unfortunately hanging out in all the chatrooms I did as "Anarchy Divine" led to lots of horny 12 year old boys trying to cyber wiht me... Not something i was interested in, seeing as how I am a guy myself, and definitely NOT gay...
Flash foreward, one day I was on a friend's comp, about to play Quake 3 for the first time (hooked on it today), and he REFUSED to let me play unless I created a new name, apparently he did not want me to "soil his nick with 'bad playing'" ... which makes no sense... Anyway, so i sat there a few seconds, and typed in "Thwark". And I've been Thwark ever since, on anything that doesn't require my real name.
Unfortunately, my main email is still under Anarchy Divine, and my AIM nick is still AnrchyDvne, since apparently you can't change it without losing your "buddies".

My real name is Despot Brown, but Goran is one of the names from my favorite country-Yugoslavia, so I just use it. Sounds cool...

http://www.ttlg.com/forums/ubb/wink.gifThis nick is not at all my invention. After the English lesson, my friends were talking about net-protocol, and especially those "crazy names". And of course one of them joked that "he could be something like DeepQantas". Qantas was because the English lesson was about Australia and it was listed as the Q-word (A-aborigine, B-boomerang and so on). And Deep propably because it's so usual (DeepBlue, for example).

Keeper of Metal and Gold on 28/12/2000 at 09:39
Goes along with the Keep of Metal and Gold.
Wanted to alude to both Thief 1 and 2. Since I only now own TG and T2 (I did originally have T1, but swapped it with a friend after getting TG), I decided to use Gold and Metal in the title, and it just sounded better to have Metal first.

No_Coke_Pepsi on 28/12/2000 at 11:58
My nick comes from an old Saturday Night Live sketch, ca. 1977. It had Belushi and Bill Murray in it, I believe.
It concerned a greasy spoon run by immigrants with a poor command of English, which was mostly limited to shouts of "No Coke, Pepsi!" and "Chee'burger, Chee'burger, Chee'burger, Hey!"
Actually I enjoy Coke
and Pepsi. Whatever ya got.

Old thread, but I'll post anway.
In 1969, Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention were doing a bus tour. They bought a decomissioned Greyhound, but replaced the name with "Phydeaux". Dogs, poodles, and especially ones named Fido are a recurring theme in Zappa's work. It's a bit obscure, but I like it.

neuromancer on 28/12/2000 at 17:32
is the name of the powerful A.I. with a personality from the William Gibson novel of the same name. Neuromancer isn't even my favorite book, nor Gibson my favorite author, but I was fascinated with the concepts when I read it. Thats where my nick comes from.
