What does your name mean?

Hello all,

I am interested every time I read someones name what it means and how they came up with it.

Here is mine:

MikeSwim07

Mike is my name (well michael is...)
Swim because I am a swimmer on a swim team
07 because I made this account in 2007.



If you want to please post yours.

Gary - because it's my name.
R - because it's really shorthand for "Aaargh" (I shout that a lot at times of frustration).

Nice one!

Yes well I thought it tripped off the tongue easier than Gary "Oh for f***s sake" (which is something else I said a lot when I was training, usually when the wife wasn't around).

Orac was the ships computer in a late 70s BBC sci fi TV series "Blakes 7"

The name being derived from, ORal recogintion and COmputing (As Dr Who fans will know, Tardis is derived from, Time And Relative Dimmension In Space).

As I have two ears, and use computers, it seemed to fit when i was thinking of a username for MWR

The following links will tell you more about Orac in Blakes 7

Elrond is the person in JRR Tolkiens books who represents knowledge if anyone does and as I always liked to collect knowledge I used the name that I had used in other organizations as well. By now I am know across the help forums as Elrond.

Well years ago, i was trying to create a name for me online.

Chryssi is my real name.
I got my own first pc on 1996, and i created my profile in yahoo as chryssi2001 and from then i use this as my name in all forums.

jmw are my intials, the 3 is because when I set up my last isp account jmw was taken so I just kept adding a number until I had an account name that wasn't being used. And I've pretty much just stuck to that name for most things.

I like to learn, and it reminds me of the saying:
Be as wise as a serpent, but be gentle as a dove.

Well what can i say about my name Bio-Hazard ....I thought it would be different and interesting also it will create responds from people. I do also work in a environment where there are biohazard material around . I like the biohazard sign. So there you go.

I use to be swimmer and also played underwater rugby.

Wow! Thanks for all the responses.
