    Default What does your screen name mean?

    Lots of new members. Lots of different and cool screen names. What do they all mean?? Some are simple, actual names, or favorite vehicle. Others are not so easy to figure out...


    Uhm, I'll go first


    ROHAM <---- It's my real name. Given to me by my grandad It's usualy never taken, so it beats having to think something up

    nothing much behind mine. Chris - that's my name, and the added 'boy' part was how my GF liked to call me. it somehow stuck, even if we're no longer together.
    You are what you eat. That's why I'm a fat bastard.

    The guys where I worked told me I had a Black Cloud that followed me, shit would always hit the fan while we were out on patrol... 114 Pct. I took this screen name for AOL many yrs ago. I'm not a member of AOL but still use it for many things (ex. IM, BB's)

    I smoke cigars. I am the Seageant of the 1900-0300 shift at my department. Thus the name cigarsarge.

    I explained this in another thread when Scotty was taunting me (since he already knew what my screen name meant). So for those of you who missed it, here it is again.

    I like Jaguar motor cars. They are made in Coventry, England. They are sometimes called "Coventry Cats". The monthly publication of the Jaguar Association of New England (JANE) is called the "Coventry Cat".



    The year of the Jaguar that I show in car shows is 1986, therefore the "86" at the end of my screen name:



    It's also a pure coincidence that my ex-wife was born and raised in Coventry, Connecticut and we were married in 1986 and that she is a cat lover.

    Cockyhoskins is a combo of my last name and my fanaticism for the Gamecocks. My wife also says it suits my personality!

    I work in an Electronics R&D Lab. When I first started here, I was in this one lab where four of us had identicle cubicles along one wall...they looked like cages . Me and a buddy of mine used to say we felt like lab monkeys.

    on other boards (chainmaille ones mostly) i go by Mithrilmailler. Mithril comes from the LotR books (big tolkien fan), and the mailler comes from the fact that i make chainmaille. so for this board, i just dropped the mailler and was left with Mithril.

    hex
    n.

    1. An evil spell; a curse.
    2. One that brings bad luck.
    tr.v., hexed, hex·ing, hex·es.
    1. To put a hex on.
    2. To bring or wish bad luck to: “Chilly evening weather and a chain of minor snafus seemed to hex the $5,000-a-seat gala on Governors Island” (Newsweek).
    1848 is the year my collage fraternity was founded. I've been using hex1848 as my AIM screen name for years, so I figured I would keep it and use it for everything else. (Its also what I use for my DMOZ editing)
