Default What does your Forum user name mean or signify?

I am sure if you are like me you are always trying to figure out what other members users names might mean?

Kinda like when you see a personalized license plate when you are driving.

So, I would be interested and I'm sure others would be too...what does your user name mean or signify?

For the first 2 years of being on the forum my name here was TheyGotMeToo, but everyone shortened it to TGMT (so I did the same)

Aspen + ken = aspkin

I thought of the name 7-8 years ago and have been using it ever since.

I wanted a name that started with the letter 'A' because its the first letter of the alphabet. I was watching Tommy Boy at the time.. and I went with Aspen as a starting point. I just liked the name. I was also aiming for a short name, but obviously didn't want to stick with Aspen.. so I decided to add kin to it.. and thus aspkin was born.

Also kin was supposed to be ken.

My username was supposed to be aspken.. but I like how aspkin turned out so I kept it.

It doesn't mean anything, it's hard to pronounce, but it's mine.

aspkin

I think I remember you being banned a few times by a certain moderator.. and that's where your username came from?

Jbuntz is my first stealth ebay id that I had when I signed up with the forums and it's still up and running. Don't worry you won't be able to find it I changed it after I signed up.

That is the other part of the reason I use the name I do.

But I wasn't going to drag up those issues with "a certain moderator.. "

I used to carry alot of cash with me when I was a teen. The wad was too thick for my wallet so that stayed home. When ever I needed to buy something that required an ID, I would just tell the cashiers I have no ID. My friends caught on to this and so they started calling me NO ID. Now I never have cash and use debit.

Send a message via AIM to Stream

Str is short for Stream. I could not make Stream on this forums because I think someone sign up with the name b4 I did.

@aspkin or mod think you can get it for me? thanks if you can.

I just looked it up and seen that the user that made it is from china and is ban from the forums.

Stream been my handle for years when I was doing the AOL thing. A lil programming for AOL like cloners, spammers, idlers etc.

Cool thread

Mine means:
jam = slang for auction
blitz = an intense campaign

I changed blitz to blix because the original web domain jamblitz.com was taken at the time so I just stuck with blix.

jamblix = an intense campaign of auctions :D

zmaj + ns

zmaj means dragon in serbian
ns is short for Novi Sad, the town where I was born

Through high school all kids called me zmaj (god knows why), so when I made my first e-mail address in '97, i came up with zmajns

I burnt my arm and now I have a scar. So now whenever I look at my scar it reminds me of the time I got burnt.
