What's In a Name?

[twyrch]

So why did you choose the name you use on the forum?

I pulled the name "TWRYCH" from The Silver Hand, but SRL spelled it differently. It is Gaelic for "Boar", but despite it's meaning, it sounded cool to me and works great when creating new accounts because I always get the name I want.

I chose to use the proper Gaelic spelling of the word, but CoI still enjoys to rib me about it and refuses to add the "R" to my name... calling me, Twych.

[dinadan]

Dinadan is the name of the jester-knight in the Arthurian poetry of Charles Williams. Dinadan was the first knight of the table to recognize the holy work going on in Logres.

I like him.

[DanTheMan]

My name was just a spur of the moment choice, actually. No great meaning to it. It never really occured to me to pick a name from the Lawhead books or anywhere else. Sometimes, I wish I had picked a more creative name, but it's too late now.

[Gwalchmai]

Mine is a tad more involved. Gwalchmai is the name I use on just about all of my online things. I originally got it on an online computer rpg clan. And what can I say, of all the characters in Arthurian Legends, Gawain is my favorite so I choose to use his name. Plus its usually not already taken when I need to use it

[Hinata]

Dan, I LOVE your name! I think it is the most creative because you ARE "The Man"

Umm. . .my name came from a Japanese Anime called Naruto. . .the girl Hinata is a shy, not very outgoing person but someone with a great crush on the character Naruto. Whenever she gets around him, she becomes exceptionally quiet and reserved. . .I used to be like that. . .now, I just kick whoever's butt I feel like kicking that day . . . yeah, so Hinata reminds me to not resort back to walls and it keeps with an uberly cool name

[Daae]

I am a huge Phantom of the Opera fan, so Daae was kind of a natural choice. Plus I love the way the name looks.

[kahne9]

Well, Kasey Kahne is my favorite nascar driver and he drives the #9 car.

[Shazammm]

ummm.....it's my name on another forum.....plus, i use that phrase a lot.

[cree8ivone]

My name is derived from my company name, cree8iv Productions. I use it almost everywhere because it is kinda unique and most people don't use it.

[Elassa]

My dad called my Saphyre one day because I was born in September. The spelling came from him as well. He said I was different and it looks prettier spelled this way. I love my daddy!!

[Child of Immanuel]

First of all, I call him Twrch, not Twych. ()

And my name should be pretty self explanatory.

[Janikz Rex]

i got Janikz from a deli near my father's job. The stores name is Janick's Deli. i just thought it sounded real kool changed the spelling and BAMM i have a great name lol ... the Rex part comes because i like to think im a king lol and it also sounds awesome after a name like Janikz

LOL! Just messing with you CoI...

My name is a combination of many factors. Basically it's a merging of my first and last names. Nothing really all that spectacular. It does give some people a cool feeling though. *sighs*
