Status: offline 		This is probably the only MB that my nic does not have some personal meaning to me. The one I wanted to use was taken, and this just sorta popped into my head. Maybe because I was in a situation I was on the fence about, maybe not. I don't really know. lol

I post a great deal on football MB's and on a kidney disease support MB, in both of those my nic is much more a reflection of me. I am not an indecisive person so this one is pretty funny for me personally. Sort of like the Yin of my Yang.

Status: offline 		For this name we just wanted to think of something that described us. In just about any other forum, I use pyrodie18. I do pyrotechnics (prof. fireworks shows) as a side job. A group of me and my friends that do this call ourselves the pyrodies. I just happened to be 18 when I first signed up for AOL and thus be came pyrodie18.

Status: offline 		i used to bartend at a club in nyc and the British bartending supervisor who hired me gave me the nickname cherry
the name seemed to fit the obvious connotations of being new to Ds. . . no doubt it will evolve accordingly. . .

Status: offline 		It reflects a part of me, the quiet people watching part. It also reflects who I am in real life. The subdued quiet fellow, who stops and just looks at the world around him. Noticing everything, but looks at nothing. Very zen moment here, or is it a Qi Gong moment? I'll have to meditate on that and get back to you.

Well.... I've got another name for you that I like a whole lot better, and it's also got a french ring to it. HAR!

But somehow I longed for a change and till I find something suitable I used nick very alike my real name.

Status: offline 		Well.................

I kinda got this name back in HS, when I kinda sorta got ticked off at someone and had a teensy weensy moment of rage, and he yelled "OK, love dragon, I give!" as I leaned him out the window. Someone else heard him say it, so it stuck.

Edited to add: I added the 'x' out of necessity a few years ago since luvdragon by itself was taken (as a screen name).

O course; how dim of me. Noctural visitors are a bit more exciting for CM Mods than a tooth fairy, LOL.

Status: offline 		I've had a LOT of nic's since I joined cyberworld.

My all-time favorite was CyberNazi_NoCyberForYou. It got a lot of laughs and comments until a descendent of a holocaust survivor followed me from chat room to chat room one night chastising me repeatedly for making a mockery of the horrifications (is that a word?) and the slaughter of the six million human beings. I felt bad and decided maybe I was being insensitive and I never used it again.

When I signed up here I decided I wanted a new nic, and it means nothing more than I like wind chimes. I just made up the funky spelling. I've used the name sandcastle in the past, too....because I like sandcastles.
