i'm pretty sure we've not done this before.

whats the history to your nickname, what made it the way it is right now ?

i'll post my history of my nickname as an example and to start things off 8-)


when i was younger, around 5 years old me and my freind were at his house playing ps1 and n64 with his older brother, and his dad just suddenly started calling me Coggy, and then my freinds started calling me it and practically all my freinds call me Coggy to this day. none of my freinds call me Colin.

Then when i was older between 12 and 14 i started getting into dj'ing and used virtual dj, alot of freinds wanted cd's from me because we all done it and wanted to exchange mixes with each other, Coggy sounded a bit shit to me to be crediting in the mixes so i came up with Coggles.

Then when i joined the official prodigy forum my username was Cogglez, because i ended up bored with Coggles.

then after joining bk and making a few freinds with Stasz in particular we ended up doing something to try and make Everyone on the forum end their name with SZ, so i done it as well and thus Cogglesz was born, though after a few months everyone stopped doing it, i kept it because i felt Cogglez ended short but with the added SZ it looked pretty cool and so to this day my internet alias is Cogglesz and my real life nickname remains to be Coggy after 13 years of my life.

So...........Begin your stories :-D

It was when I first got Pokemon Blue and I was playing it on my Gameboy, it was Christmas Day in the morning, i was running downstairs with it in my hand adding my characters name, it was dark, i was going to put JIMBO in, as believe it or not, my name is James, aaaaand I misread the Q for an O and i got really far in the game til i realised it was a Q and not an O... so i just stuck with it, for pretty much everything haha.

Just for this topic I changed my username for the 1st time on any forum. Jiltedgenerator was just the 1st name that sprung to mind that's it.
But to most people i'm just 'T' or Tez - that's it. :roll:

Very Nice indeed :)

I named myself after a minor character from NIKITA Tv Series. Hillinger just sounded cool in my ears and here I am :) :) :) :)

I have been reffering to myself as HLNGR lately but it still originates from Hillinger :)

Well I don't know I've had so many nicknames on the internetd I grew tired off it and basically started to use my real name as a nickname...

Yes my name REALLY is Stasz :lol:
But actually my full official name is Stanislaus.
But I hate it when people call me like that, I've been called Stasz since I was a little kid.
And fuck me, got a cool name :lol:

When I'm introduced to someone I always get to hear...
'I never ever heard a name like that'.

And I'm fine with it.
I'm special :lol:

Some of my very first serious music i made, was for a fighting game like Mortal Kombat.. it was called Mooze Fighting. You would choose a mooze and start fighting against another mooze. I used a soundblaster soundcard on my pc. So i just merged the name mooze with soundblaster

Thats all.. I dont go around killing mooze. I love all kind of animals. :lol:

Well...
Once upon a time in a land far far away... In the rural town in which its inhabitants call Watton of the county Norfolk, there was this girl called Amba.
This Amba was a short ass clocking up only 5 ft in height. To this day she still is only 5 ft in height...
Now this Amba used to have the nick name titch or shorty at school.
But during her travels of meeting new people she accuired the nickname Thumbalina .

Thus Amba used her witty skills to form Ambalina (well actually her ex and his friends thought it would be funny to call her Ambalina)

And there you go thats were my nickname came from cross between Amba and Thumbalina cause I'm short!

I tried to make it a thrilling read :lol:

Oh ... and My actual name Iv'e found out means :
Amba
For the Israeli condiment, see amba (condiment). Amba (meaning "mother" in Sanskrit) is another name for Goddess Durga or Parvati, consort of Lord Shiva.Amba (अम्‍बा) was the eldest daughter of King of Kashi in the Hindu epic of the Mahabharata.Along with her sisters Ambika and Ambalika, she was taken by force by Bhishma from their Swayamvara. (Bhishma challenged the assembled Kings and Princes and defeated them.) He presented them to Satyavati for marriage to Vichitravirya, the king of Hastinapura.


:shock:
