Why are you called.....The Great Screen Name Thread

[Aeolus]

Aeolus is the Greek god of the wind, so I used it for the name of my sailboat and it sounds cool. :lightingz

 

[Dee]

Nickname for my real name, Davida which most people can't pronounce or spell correctly. Plus it's short and easy to type when logging in to any site.

 

[Tao of the Dive]

One of my former log in names on another message board and in Usenet was Tao Of Me, which makes reference to my religious beliefs (Deist and a distrust of organized religion), as well as personal philosophy, since loosely translated, it means "Way of Me." When I started posting here, it seemed more fitting to refer to the "way of the dive" rather than doing things my way.

 

[QuoVadis]

So i can answer this post!!!

 

[coppermaus]

A mythological reference to the deity Maus who was the Goddess of Small Things especially really good cheeses and little scratching noises in the night, along with a reference to the many ceremonial icons, devotional statues and artificial artifacts her ancient worshippers fashioned out of copper and left for archeologists to puzzle over many centuries later.

Mine is a no brainer.

Very rare, I'm the 20th documented barracuda attack on human since 1873. Go figure.
