BF screen name decision

**ruth1** · 06-09-2005, 08:58 AM

So I was wondering what made people select their BF screen name? I'm hoping to read some interesting stories. Unfortunately mine is not all that interesting. "Ruth" is my name and I thought it was short enough to use as a screen name. And the "1" stands for "the one and only."

So anyone else care to share?

Well, "Gollum" was my net-name in the gaming community (I chose it because it described my style of play - throttle them from behind). I'd probably just register with my real name now, if I was setting up an account. All these nick names seem a bit silly when you get older

*shrug*

my screen name red00ecstrat is actually the description of my #1 guitar. red is the color. 00(year two thousand) is the production year of that guitar. ec is eric clapton signature series. strat is fender stratocaster guitar.

"Lazy" has very similar pronoucation when u pronouce my 1st name and the initial of last name. Plus, my friends always say that I am lazy for anything besides baddy related stuff.

First name, David, age 18. Lol. Dave18.

Lame I know, but I thought this was a professional forum so I rather not use my gaming name, Xion.

my nick in one of my former jobs was the "radman". there was a badminton tournament held for local companies - sort of like a corporate challenge, and one of my teammates made the connection with me and badminton so they renamed me "badrad". it stuck...

Well, my nick pretty much speak for itself. Im left handed and Lin-Dan is left handed

thats why i like him so much. And when I watch his games i can study the footworks, grips, and swings ( which i cant do with right handed players) if the video is clear enough. I 've been trying to get all his games but so far only have 2

. Wish more people would post them.
