Names

This thread is for members to post and discuss the meanings behind their names.
This can include the reason(s) you chose that name for ditl, what that name translates to (in any language), anything you want to tell us about the history of that name, etc.
Do not feel compelled to reveal if it is your true name or not.

I'll start. I chose "Intrepid" because it is Voyager's class, and I love Voyager (go to my blog http://www.voyagerprincess.blogspot.com if you want to know why).
I chose "Princess" because that is what my real name translates to in Hebrew.

If you're reading this, IT'S YOUR TURN NOW!

Sarah, right?

Now, did you already know that or look it up?

[Mark]

If your actually curious Princess, I looked up Mark. It's Latin, derived from Mars (the God of War). It's supposed to mean either "brave" or "warlike" (depending on whose doing the translation I guess).

Now do I lie and make myself look intelligent or admit that I googled it and....damn, too late

I got my screen name from the lads mag 'FHM' (British version). We're talking circa 1996 and they had a column in one issue dedicated to weird things people do or exclaim whilst orgasming and this one girl wrote in to say that her boyfriend shouted out "by the Lord Harry!" during the act. I fell about the place laughing and when the internet eventually arrived for the masses, I always used it as a screenname

That is seriously twisted.

[thelordharry]

So your initials are 'SS'? Shame Sarah isn't your second name and your first name is something like 'Ula'.

Ula
Sarah
Switzer

Victoria
Olive
Yvonne
Anne
Gabrielle
Emma
Rachel

Sorry guys, I really have NOTHING to do today

My father-in-law tells me that it's also a euphemism for the devil in some Charles Dickens book? Never heard that one though

Wow, nice on the names.

Mine orginated when I signed up at the TMFFA ( Tenchi Muyo Fan Fic Archive)* nigh on a decade or something ago. The name is relevant to the anime, and I've just stuck with it ever since.

Ya know, I need to check if that things even still in business. That's where I met LH. Ya know, I've known him almost as long as I've known my wife.

I remember that show. It was pretty good, IIRC.

It was. First thing I ever wrote was for it. Each iteration got progressively shittier though. Thankfully they let the Tenchi in Tokyo and Tenchi Universe continuities die and just kept with the OVA one. Mihoshi > all other anime girls.

Tyyr, is just a variation on one of two names I've been using for freaking ever. Got the idea for it back when I played NWN for the first time.

Why does your avatar always look constipated?

That's better. I don't like olives!

[Tyyr]

The same reason yours looks like he's about to rip one.

That's Misaki from TM, begging someone to let her have her way.

Sadly no, the site has been "under construction" since Feb 2008. Seems like a dead site to me.

Well, I learned something new today.

It was. First thing I ever wrote was for it. Each iteration got progressively shittier though.

If that ain't God's own truth. I never did understand why the creators felt the need to keep reinventing the universe, and make it dumber each time they did.

Thankfully they let the Tenchi in Tokyo and Tenchi Universe continuities die and just kept with the OVA one.

Too bad they could bring it back up to the standards of the original when they did finally get around to wrapping things up.

Mihoshi > all other anime girls.

You know I have to disagree with you on that.

Tyyr, is just a variation on one of two names I've been using for freaking ever. Got the idea for it back when I played NWN for the first time.

It's interesting, you've had a few different names, but always the same avatar. I've had the same name, but a whole slew of different avatars.

I haven't read all of (any 8) ) Dickenses books.
