User names???
 
Just browsing the board and wondered why people chose their user names.
I use Doogalman because my best man used to call me Doogal (no reason he just did) so i've carried it on.
Still i called my Python Jeff, after him:lol: :lol

How about you????::::rolleyes:

Florence 17-Dec-2006 21:35

I used to be a Service Advisor in a Harley Davidson Dealership and the Technicians (or mechanics) used to call me their "Biatch" then the customers latched onto it and called me the "Service Biatch" so it stuck!! :rolleyes: :cool:

Lightning Boy 17-Dec-2006 21:56

Met a guy at the crossroads...well.....roundabout really..... He was the local 'ace' as he liked to call himself. Had a nice new GSX1100 with Yoshi pipe and no-one was faster than him around the Harrow one-way system.....from the T's&C'c (as the tea/coffee stand was called) and back....about a mile with some tricky 1st gear left/rights. So along comes little me equipped with a battered Kawka 900R......and the roads are damp.......

My mates reckon'd I'd made a deal with the devil to win....... it was about the same time the movie 'Crossroads' was out.......so the name stuck.....

JasonBoswell 17-Dec-2006 23:17

'cos I was an avid fan of Neighbours when I was at college so got called "Jason" (as in Donavan). And of course being a scouser my mates added "Boswell" (from the 80's sitcom Bread) on the end. Its stuck ever since.

"........we.......were inverted"

perhaps we need a movie quotes thread

rcgbob44 18-Dec-2006 08:50

Mine was the first web name I ever had, my initials (RCG) - Bob (short for Robert & my house number & caliber of my Smith & Wesson at the time.

Jools 18-Dec-2006 11:09

Well, my real name is Julian. Not such a bad name when you're an adult, but when you're a kid at primary school you get all the other kids following you round chanting "Julie, Julie, Julie..", then when everybody grew out of that some bubblegum band of the day came out with a song that went "J..j..j..j..j..j..j..Julie-Anne" in the chorus and it all kicked off again.

No doubt due to an old 1950's radio show called 'Round the Horne" where they had Kenneth Williams and some other bloke playing two outrageously camp characters called "Julian and Sandy", I've also had to put up with people going into the hand on hip, limp wristed 'teapot' impressions and lisping "Ooooh, Julian". I was just starting to see the back of the campness associated with my name when along came Julian bloody Clary :lol:

When we started learning French at school, the teacher gave us all the French version of our name, so I became Jules and it stuck.

Years later, I was playing in a band called Axis on the local and London pub circuits and there were some fly posters printed up where the printer had spelled my name Jools, some journos from Melody Maker, NME and Musicians Only picked up on that spelling of my nickname in reviews of our gigs* and the spelling stuck.




*Sounds more impressive than it was, we only merited a couple of column inches in any review before this 'prog' band got swept aside by the punk explosion.

Dare we ask what the X is for.:eek: :eek:

BDG 18-Dec-2006 13:12

BDG is an abbreviation of BIG DAFT GEORDIE. This was an insult created by one of my mates coz i'm not a Geordie, but southerners don't seem to know the difference.

The other alternative was Paddy O' Hilter because of my ancestory, but that didn't seem to go down that well.
