Iron Maiden song.

*Powder* · 01-22-2015, 04:45 PM

My real life nickname is Powder, which stems from the film/character of the same title.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 01-22-2015, 04:49 PM

I'm Canadian and I really love the Technodrome

Blossombrooks · 01-22-2015, 05:04 PM

Blossom Brooks is my alter ego, it started years ago when I was still at school and y'know when you do the 'stage name'

(mother's maiden name + first pet name) game? Well this is mine and I liked it so much I started using it to do all my artwork under, most people who I meet on the art circuit don't know its not my actual name.

LOL yeah, I get that a lot. Not a bad show though - what can I say; I'm a sucker for anything with Frankenstein in it.

That was a cool movie.

*Raph's Girl* · 01-22-2015, 05:27 PM

Raphael's my fave of the turtles.

~~Leo656~~ · 01-22-2015, 08:34 PM

Pretty boring. Leo's my favorite Turtle and 656 was part of my old phone number.

*Katie* · 01-22-2015, 09:07 PM

It's my actual nickname

*CyberCubed* · 01-22-2015, 09:23 PM

I picked this username back in 2001 when I was 15 or so. The Gamecube was Nintendo's new system at the time so the "Cubed" at the end of my name actually comes from Gamecube.

I bet some of you didn't know my username was Nintendo themed. Cyber is just generic because as a 15 year old in 2001 I thought virtual reality was cool and Cyber = internet/robots/whatever. I can't believe I've been using the same username since 2001 when I was 15 years old on the internet in general.

*ProactiveMan* · 01-23-2015, 03:15 AM

I use ProactiveMan here and there. It comes from an idea I had a long time ago about a superhero who spoke in management jargon. His name was Proactiveman, and he solved crime with process and buzzwords. Suffice to say, nothing came of that lame idea, but I had a soft spot for the name.

It was almost MrDetective, after my favourite showbag. (Maybe only Australians know what those are)

Don't worry, as I pointed out in my entry, I've been using this Mayhem handle online since 1993. Yeah, internet existed then, way less websites than today, when the browser battle was between Netscape and Mosaic, you could use stuff like GOPHER to get files, and the search engines of choice were Alta Vista and Yahoo...

Consider yourself lucky for having a simple yet unique username that's never taken in any new place you join.

BlueKatanas · 01-23-2015, 11:16 AM

I usually just pick a favorite character and go from there. On an Indiana jones forum I'm "Maybe.Not Today" - part of one of my favorite lines in temple of doom. My name here is kind of obvious. It's hard to pick a favorite turtle, but Leo is the one I empathize with most these days.

~~Amaranthus~~ · 01-23-2015, 11:50 AM

Amaranthus caudatus is a beautiful plant.
I've always liked the sound of Latin. It has that electronic vibe to it.

Donnieangelo · 01-23-2015, 04:14 PM

Because Donatello and Michelangelo are my favorite turtles.

Donatello_One_Shot · 01-23-2015, 04:26 PM

The Kirby and the warp crystal one shot really got to me

*blindturtle02* · 01-23-2015, 06:23 PM

I'm totally blind and it's a turtle forum. I just couldn't come up with something unique that day because I remember being focused on cooking something or other. I suppose I could eventually change it to Darkturtle if that's not taken. I'll stick with this one for now, I guess.

I dunno about anyone else, but I love coming up with new usernames.
