What’s your name mean?

[RideWithYanu]

I spend time on a bunch of forums with a lot of macho bs (cars, DFS, fitness/bodybuilding, firearms, etc), and the usernames tend to be things like SteelThunderNuts69 which I find try-hard - so I tried to pick the least "macho" name I could think of at the time and have had it for years (not to say it is me on every site, but it might be).

The avatar is Ferrari spelled wrong and the Mustang logo, and I had it on a shirt for a long time that I would wear to car shows. I would usually get people correcting one but not the other.

I love this so much. I was just laughing with my wife about all of the hypermasculine macho theatrics in many communities. Silly lads.

 

[Altitude]

Have you done the Manitou Incline near Colorado Springs? It's only 2744 steps one way.

My daughter has done it twice this year. Somehow I’ve never gotten down there to do it and I’ve lived here my whole adult life. On my list.

 

[Nostr0m0]

Been my gamertag since 2001, big Alien fan.

 

[t3lcfe]

I am quiet till now after 6 pages / chapters of fancy / cool names (usually I am very active and contributing to our forums, especially, the mods )

Quiet! The reason: my t3lcfe is damn boring of combination names of my rig and me! So boring, isn’t it ?

[ovʀʟxnᴅ]

I was choosing a vanity plate for my FJ Cruiser like a decade ago. VA is dumb and only has 7 characters available. (It's dumb for other reasons as well.) Since I got the plate, having a 7-letter domain also seemed promising. I haven't really done a lot with it since the FJ, but I do still own ovʀʟxnᴅ.com

 

[radmoonrising]

I took a riff on CCR Bad Moon Rising for my Xbox live account too many years ago. I felt more rad than bad so radmoonrising it was.

 

[DubDub]

“Dub Dub” was my nickname in the Mess amongst my fellow Chiefs onboard my last ship before commissioning. Name is Wes W., so it is simple. It was my callsign everywhere after too. The dumber the name the better it sticks.

 

[Thx_1158]

Here is a hint to mine…with a swap of the last two digits….

 

[Doc57]

DOC57, the first part of my profession: I have worked for more than 40 years in a Hospital, and 57 is the year I was born (1957), not very far-fetched

 

[biltor]

My old tag on pretty much all the forums I frequented in the last 20 years was FLT4Flyer, but my racing days are over, and my wife picked this one involving mine and her names. She thought it was “cute” and I’m not an idiot, so I nodded in agreement and here I am.

 

[Grandpawmoses]

I was a mess cook at the Last Supper

 

[Scrappopatamus]

Nick name for Scrappy Dawg, one of my best companions who's pictured on the left with Mollie Dawg

 

[icurnmedic]

When mine was created I was an intensive care unit registered nurse and a paramedic. Been using this for 22 years now.

 

[dhuzer]

My sister gave me this nickname when I was 2 from show/books Fraggle Rock. The Doozers are workers who build things and the Fraggles eat the builds, which frees up space for the Doozers to keep building. Add to it the fact my mom wanted to spell it differently, with a Gaelic infusion, and I got Dhuzer. Still go by it with close friends and family, and I even named my LC300 the Dhuzer Cruiser.
