Hi. I've noticed a lot of you have very odd names! I'm wondering; why did you choose your name? I can see some that make sense (for example, redrum is from The Shining, dave_g could just be Dave and a surname, etc.) but others are just silly!
I chose my name because I like to play on those old musical toys, the stylophones, but I thought "phone" would be a bit better! It is something essential and obvious but nobody had taken it!

exactamundo, lack of imagination probably, but I get fed up with usernames and stuff. I already have a name, so why not use it. dave was already taken, so I appended an underscore and first letter of my surname to make dave_g.

I made it up by combining the words dog and belch. sneakattack would later go on to say I shouldn't have used an underscore inbetween the words and he gave a reason that was something to do with computers (what a suprise) but I like the underscore for aesthetic reasons.

Underscores are the proverbial bomb. Geek chic, perhaps?
I always admired Trent Reznor for saying that one of the reasons he chose 'nine inch nails' as his name was because it looked great in print.. and he's right. I should have been uviol_. No actually that would suck.

Mine is a bastardization of Aphex. I really should have given it more thought but I didn't think I'd be stuck with it for six fucking years and counting. I probably would have named myself Heatdeath if I could do it all over again.
