Default What's the origin of your User ID?

A similar topic was posted in the S.F.T.P.O.K regarding krb's user ID, and what it meant. Leads me to ask what the origin of other user is. Is it a nickname? Something you just came up with on the spot? Let us know. (Sorry Mike, Becky and Jess but I'm guessing your user id is simply your name )

Mine comes from a nickname I've had since school - needless to say I was a bit rowdy back then! As a musician I play under the alias Crush. Sadly that user id was taken when I joined so I reverted back to Hellman. The name Crush came about after several thousand beers with some friends when I said how cool it would be to have a one word name like Flea, Slash and Prince etc... At the time we were listening to Crush so without much ado I was christened Crush - there you go - quite silly really lol!

Is it THAT obvious? I should have made it Becky_38 and you couldn't pry the meaning out of me.

For those who haven't seen The Matrix, my name comes from the main character Neo (aka Thomas Anderson). Oh, and if any of you HAVEN@T seen the Matrix, what the hell is wrong with you? lol.

In my case it's my parents' fault - they came up with this name... I guess :P
I could use this one over here because I was pretty quick with registering but most of the time it's taken already. In that case I always use 'aras' my name backwards. A few friends still call me Aras sometimes; ever since my first email address
