Hi all, it's a question that I've been wondering about for ages regarding usernames.
Apart from those who use their real names, how did you come by your username, is there a reason or meaning to it? I respect the fact that some of you may not wish to divulge its meaning, however it may make good reading and a pleasant respite from the other threads at the moment. Hope this is taken in the manner in which it is intended. Regards Mark

I used to have "abraxus" - as its a mispelling of the second Santana album, the one I was listening to when I first joined a magic forum...I kept it for this place as I used the same password (easy to remember)...
I know there's meanings to the word, but it wasn't because of that...it was just random...changed back to my real name because I'd gotten to know a few people, and they always called me Iain anyway... There you go...first reply, and a genuinely boring one too!
I've asked to be banned

Excellent Iain, not boring in the slightest (Santana, now there's a blast from the past LOL) input appreciated.

Mine's an amalgamation of my Christian name, and surname.
You might say reality is the result of complex negotiations between the observer and the observed. But that is simply a point of view.
Many Thanks Garrad |

I was listening to Muse when I joined the Café and had to come up with a name ('Hysteria' was the specific song but I didn't want to base the name on that). This is not to say that I haven't listened to Abraxus, although my favourite Santana album (CD these days I guess) is the third, unnamed one, that wouldn't have been very helpful in coming up with a name either. OK, I'm boring myself now, I'll stop! |

I signed up for an Internet site and my first initial and last name (rwarren) was already taken, so it suggested robwar0100 (Robert Warren) as a username. So, I always use it with everything to keep things simple.

Mine is in tribute to the worlds most unique and interesting psychic entertainer. He did not give me permission to use it, and I've been told he is a bit upset and does not care for the attention, but what can he do to me?
Sorry, got to go, I just got a stabbing pain in my neck… |

I am a law enforcement officer and a magician. It sounded better than Police Prestidigitator or Law Enforcement Legerdemain.
