OK, I stole the idea for this thread from Beverly.
What are some of your favorite Hatrack screen names? My all time favorites:
Primal Curve Dangermom Lady Dove (make dove not war, ha, I love that!) Hobbes (my email address addy for college) Human Advice for Robots Ethics Gradient
Posted by Raia (Member # 4700) on :
I like many many, but the first one that springs to mind is Irami Osei-Frimpong.
Frimpong is just the coolest word ever.
Posted by Megan (Member # 5290) on :
I like yours, Beren. I am also rather fond of (from a purely aesthetic view, mind you, though I also like the posters themselves):
Space Opera Icarus Eaquae Legit quidscribis The Pixiest
To me, these are screen names that make me say, "Hmm. I wish I'd been that creative when I was choosing MY screen name."

Oh, yes, I forgot Space Opera. That is an awesome nick.
Posted by Mormo (Member # 5799) on :
Btw, whatever happened to Ethics Gradient (named for a fictional space craft)?? Morbo
Posted by Little_Doctor (Member # 6635) on :
I was one of those that thought it would be "cool" to make their screen name something semi-witty from an OSC book. My name applies anyway because I kind of want to be a doctor when I'm older. I think.
Posted by Teshi (Member # 5024) on :
I like "A Rat Named Dog" although I'm not sure why. I just think it's a cool name.

I think the more touchy-feely Hatrack got, the less it was EG's scene. Which is too bad, because he's a total and complete studmuffin.

Ralphie rivka The majority of my kids have names that begin with R. Hmm. T_Smith
It's not that I like it overly, but I couldn't get it out of my head for a while, when I didn't have internet access: Diosmel Duda
Papa Moose goes without saying. I really loved "pooka". Getting rid of that name was hard for me. But I guess I felt it was my penance.
I think Pascal's Lager is witty. Possibly too witty.

Trisha, I have to say I'm a little . . . unnerved that you couldn't get my old nick out of your head.
Posted by Lucky4 (Member # 1420) on :
Noemon.
Sometimes when I get stuck in traffic (or encounter some other equally mind numbing activity), as my mind begins to wander, it's a bit uncanny how often it comes to rest on the pronunciation of Noemon.
>.< Don't tell me! What will I do with my free time if I know?
Posted by Synesthesia (Member # 4774) on :
Yay. Folks like my Screen name. Cool
I like A Rat Named Dog, Space Opera, mothertree sounds kind of cool. I like trees. And Glaphyra the Righteous sounds cool too.
Posted by Irami Osei-Frimpong (Member # 2229) on :
I like the names that can be extended, like when Space Opera talks about Space Operetta, or when Dangermom talks about Dangerdad and Dangerbaby. I get a kick out of it.
And yeah, this is my real name, as real as Chris Bridges or Bob Scopatz.
Posted by Synesthesia (Member # 4774) on :
Dude, you have a cool name

Posted by ElJay (Member # 6358) on :
I've always wondered if that was your real name or not, Irami.

I love Raia's name. It makes me think of sunshine.

I didn't know. And may I say that that just makes it so much cooler! You have a fabulous name, Irami.
And Eru, I'm glad my nick makes you think of sunshine!! I like sunshine!
Posted by Farmgirl (Member # 5567) on :
I have never even figured out how to pronounce Irami Osei-Frimpong...
Some of my favorite for the way they sound when I try to say them are:
quidscribis Dagonee JonnyNotSoBravo Altáriël of Dorthonion (even though I probably say it wrong)
FG
Posted by mothertree (Member # 4999) on :
quote: Trisha, I have to say I'm a little . . . unnerved that you couldn't get my old nick out of your head.
It's because I wasn't really sure who you were. I had heard people mention you, but I wasn't even sure of your gender. And then when I got back online I forgot about it, until you introduced yourself as Brinestone. And then it was like some more.
We can't forget Darth Mauve. I like "Wonko the Sane". I just don't primarily associate it with Hatrack.
On the whole Frimpong thing, I thought Bob_Scopatz wasn't really Bob's name. Is Chris Bridges a pseudonym? So your explanation has made things as clear as mud.
Posted by * (Member # 4842) on :
I'm partial to this one.
Posted by Shepherd (Member # 7380) on :
Raia Eruve Nandiriel Primal Curve The Notorious Shira Beren One Hand Telperion the Silver
Yea, even though I'm not such a fan of Telperioins posting he has the coolest name on the rack.
Posted by Hobbes (Member # 433) on :
Annie. I also really like Susie Derkins, but that's at Nauvoo, not here.
Hobbes
Posted by Space Opera (Member # 6504) on :
Advice for Robots is my favorite, hands down. I've thought of changing mine to Space Opera for Robots, but decided that would be a bit too fan-girly.
space opera
Posted by Eruve Nandiriel (Member # 5677) on :
I like Hobbes, too. Anyone named after a tiger is awesome.
Posted by quidscribis (Member # 5124) on :
I loved the name Wonko the Sane, even though I'd forgotten about it until I read this thread.
Irami, I agree with those who said your name was cool. I thought so, too, but I thought it was out of a book or something, not real, so yes, that makes it even cooler. And now I'm curious about where it comes from, culturally speaking, just because it's so interesting. Care to share?
And I'm touched that I made the list. Woohoo!
Posted by Beren One Hand (Member # 3403) on :
My favorite hatrack name variations:
Pixiest Anniest (Is this on sake river only?) Danzig avoiding landmarks (So honest, I love it.)
Posted by Little_Doctor (Member # 6635) on :
Hehe...Just saw this one on the other side:
Wowbagger the Infinitely Prolonged
