What inspired your screen name?

['Trust']

Simple question, doesn't need a deep answer, if your s/n is 'Bob' and your name is Bob then that makes sense!

Mine, I like to think I can be trusted, and I also think others need to be trusted. Click it for more info.

Lets hear em'!

[chupr0kabra]

I'm half Mexican, so the legend of the chupacabra has always fascinated me. Years ago, I was in an Unreal Tournament Clan (it's like a Guild, to you young WoW whippersnappers) called "Clan Pr0k", which was a derivation of the slang term "proc" for computer processor. Put those together: Chupr0kabra.

Yes, I am a huge nerd.

[BillyBob750]

I grew up playing football. My nickname in high school was BillyBob. Think Varsity Blues. I had a truck similar to the one in the movie. Number was 75. On AIM, BillyBob75 was taken when I created a name during my freshman year of high school. BillyBob750 wasnt taken, so its stuck on everything since.

A 10! A mother effin 10!

[G-Body]

Lazyness and a complete lack of creativity inspired my name. The first board I registered on was the MFBA and I didn`t have an f-body I had a G-Body.....so since I like to go against the trend you can guess what I registered with. After that it just sorta stuck, I use it everywhere on the net.

[Octane]

Mine is because of a motorcycle I had for 16 years. It was a color called Wineberry Sunglo, but everyone thought it was pink. Some of my buddies started calling me Pinky and it has stuck through the years. It was a 1993 FXR Low Rider, so the Pinky93 just happened, I guess.....:thumb:

[FSTPOON]

[demonspeed]

I was a huge White Zombie fan in the mid-late 90's. There was a song called "Demon Speed" on their pre-major label "Make Them Die Slowly" album. I just made it one word and lower-cased it all. I've been using it on every board since the late 90's.

[Blue Dream]

I chose a new name since My old ones seemed Dated and not exactly what I wanted anymore.
Blue Dream refers to the cars color but also the pride of ownership since the car has been rock solid DD for the past 11 yrs.
It really came from the Joe Satriani Song "Flying in a Blue Dream"

[19BLACKBIRD99]

my car is a 1999 and it is black and it is a bird haha

[Sluggish]

My car is a slug. The plates on the Z28 say SLGISH.

[98RedBird]

Always been a St Louis Cardinals fan so RedBird has been my name on/for everything since Jr. High. I had a Red 1998 Trans Am when I joined tech way back when and ironically it was a Red Bird so I just threw the 98 in front of it and called it a day.

BTW, to the OP, good idea for a thread.

[AphotiC]

[Spritle]

I never grew up into cars or had friends into them. My first ever car was a 1988 Camaro, but it was a V6. That was before I knew anything about them, just liked the car lol. I made this name a long time ago and use it on everything so haven't bothered to change it..

[ss1]

I've race circle track cars since 1993 and have always been car#1. The division I raced in around from 1999-2006 was called "sport series" so I started going by ss1 on my racing forums. in 2005 I bought my Camaro SS and the name seemed fitting for tech as well.

[TurboBerserker]

I'm Norwegian and pretty much the embodiment of the berserker legend in everything I do. I have insane focus and never, ever think "enough" is "enough." I started out as SuperchargedBerserker on SSS.com when researching superchargers after buying BRT, then found a turbo kit for the truck and its been all down hill from there (was TurbochargedBerserker there - or TCB - but that was too long for Tech :)).

[Havoc54]

[Discerning]

Discerning:it is what it is

[Mssingkid]

I started using this name back in 97' when i was in HS. One day after school i was talking to this girls mom and it just kinda stuck.

Girls Mom: "You know your never home. I wouldn't be surprised to find your picture on the back of a milk bottle"

ME: "Back of a Milk bottle?"

Girls Mom: "Yea, you know one of those Missing Kid's. Your parents must be worried where you are all the time."

ME: "Right...."


Her daughter knew why i spent so much time at her house... :naughty: I am getting kinda old for it now though.. and i refuse to make a new name or e-mail that requires numbers :bang:.

[TheBlueKnight]

I have loved Knight Rider since I was a kid. My car is Blue, hence, TheBlueKnight. I also like Sonic the Hedgehog, he's fast like my car, and he happens to be blue, hence my avatar.

[Vendetta]

My anger and hatred for the world.

Actually I just thought the name sounded cool to be honest with you.

[OneMeanZ]

Back when I registered, 5 something years ago, I had bought my first "real" F-body. A 94 Z28 and I thought OneMeanZ sounded cool because I was a tool. I figured I would just keep the name when I got my Trans Am 4 years ago.

[92builtbird]

I have a 92 firebird.
And it's not stock :thumb:

[SINISTR Z06]

Mines in the middle of a transformation.

It was SSNISTR, which was my plate on my Camaro SS. Everyone said the car looked and sounded sinister, so it became SSNISTR. Now that I sold it and am in the market for a ZO6, I changed it up to SINISTR ZO6.

[skywalkrNCSU]

My first name is Luke so the first part of my screen name is pretty obvious and I went to NC State so I guess the second part is too :jest:

[ryonyanko]

ryonyanko isn't ryon yanko like everyone thinks. ryo was my pen name when i was 12 and nyanko means little mew (kitten) in weaboo moonspeak. so its like ...together. i like catgirls and i owned tons of cat girl ears and tails so it only fits lol. not so much anymore though, i'm less of a little girl i guess.

[heymoej]

i was always watching the 3stooges & everybody that knows me calls me moe because of that,so i went with heymoej. i put the j on there because my real name is john......

why i oughta......pick 2 any 2...lol.

[Detoxx]

I always liked the word Detox so once I bought my first Trans Am I was looking for a cool name to put on the license plate and thought of Detox but added an extra X as well as the 03 (which I dropped on this site) because I was born the 3rd of August and I graduated on 03'. Needless to the say the name as stuck ever since.

[ThumperNC24]

Well, I am a girl and one of the things that I love are fast cars:thumb::thumb:

thats hilarious and awesome.

mine...I thump my leg like crazy, can't stay still to save my life. Old football coach gave it to me after the rabbit in the disney movie. NC stands for the letters of my Hometown (and teams I played for) and then the number 24 was one of mine.

I prefer just Thumper, but that is generally taken on huge sites and I don't really feel like recreating another account here since this one already exists.

If someone would change it to 'Thumper' for me that would be sweet though

[streetassasin]

becuase I assassinate most cars on the street but I made a typo when I made the name "jest: should have been streetassassin, I just use the misspelled name as my sn on all sites now

[Z Fury]

NC stands for the letters of my Hometown (and teams I played for) and then the number 24 was one of mine.

New Castle, IN?

I went to high school at Logansport and New Castle was in our Conference (NCC) back in the day. I always hated the 2.5 hour ride in a bus to get there...

[ThumperNC24]

Actually its a place in Ohio

North Canton, Ohio actually

I go to Purdue now though, so hence the IN current location

[Z Fury]

Actually its a place in Ohio

North Canton, Ohio actually

I go to Purdue now though, so hence the IN current location

Ah, my mistake. :thumb:

[will69camaro]

My name is William (Will) and when I first made my name all I had was a 69 camaro. Figured it'd be easy to remember..."Will69camaro"

[heavy chevy boy]

named my self after a song by t.i. heavy chevy's . i just inserted boy.

[The Manalishi]

The song "The Green Manalishi" written by Peter Green of Fleetwood Mac, and later covered by Judas Priest.

[HYBRED]

Mine has a dual meaning. 1- I drive a Mustang, which has 50+ years of history behind it = High Bred. 2- It's a composition of OEM parts off a variety of Mustang models = hybrid. It's actually my license plate, and the usual response is "You spelled it wrong..."

[Wolfman1]

my nickname because i am a furry Greek

[cheyenne383]

I drove a 72 Cheyenne with a 383 until some dick wad stole it...

[NJ Torque]

NJ Torque... from NJ... and you know what I got.

[Atilla the Fun]

Just before I joined my first forum, I'd read something funny about carving up real estate like Attila the Hun. Now I think corner-carving is fun. So I mis-spelled Attila as Atilla and the rest is obvious. Cheers

[goatdevil]

Well first off I have a GTO/ GOaT, and then there is the fact that the yellow holden VXR is called the yellow devil. So the U.S. GOaT meets the Aussie DEVIL and you got a GOaTdevil.......

[Nautilus]

My old name on here & I think ls1.com was 01T/AWS6... But after I sold the WS6 for a Z06 I wanted a name that wasn't tied to a specific model. I couldn't think of anything good so I used the name on on the desk fan I had at the time. "Nautilus" :jest: Wish I had a better story...

[formulajunky]

LOL i always wonder wtf your name meant

[ZLEEPER]

my car was origianlly supposed to be a "sleeper" z28, hence zleeper. Now after 3 motor swaps and the addition of the F1A, it doesn'tquite fit... but I'll keep it anyway :)

[ndfrsd6]

my license plate says ndfrsd6 .....need for speed , 6 for the M6 i had forever lol...now i have a th400 ha ha

[K-Mac]

First name starts with a K, last name starts with Mc. Boring

[kain01]

um been working for the army, and they let me play with stuff that goes boom. dont get on my bad side. lol j/k

Heh, combat engineer? Did that for 10 years, det cord.....boom baby boom!!!!!

On topic, I used to play D&D (yup I'm that guy, but I can blow up your house now so speak easy :P), and this screen name is based on a necromancer character that was also the spawn of a devil/demon. Devil if you've ever played and actually know the difference in game.

The 01 came because apparently Kain was used, though I've never seen anyone ise it....ever here or the other site.

[sleepinghawk]

Sleepinghawk...I spent alot of nights, not sleeping, and wondering if the guy was going to sell me the hawk.

[BigBronco]

Well, my vehicle in High school was a lifted and built Bronco. Fun.

[HMFDZ28]

Man mine is easy... My fire department Huntington Manor FD I think the Z28 explains itself. Eventualy it will be my Plate

[99FRC]

Had a '99 FRC Corvette when I joined up. Kinda surprised it wasn't taken. I used to wonder why people had different vehicles in their screen name than in their sig, but I guess I'll be one of those now.

[cbrrmike]

my name, and my old cbr600rr

[SSIRBY]

my car and last name.

[Dynotune04]

old nitrous kit i had on my gt.

[RacerXLS1]

Thought it sounded cool.

[intake68]

My first ever automotive internet transaction was me looking for an intake for my 68 Firebird :chug: That was really back in the day like in 1993ish....I have been intake68 since.

[Torque Junky]

I want my license plate to say "TRQJNKY". So i thought it would work here.

[waldershrek]

A mis-translated phrase in German back in the day led it to being my nick name and it just sorta stuck.

[-Joseph-]

Inspired by a lack of creativity.

[CamaroKidZ28]

CamaroKidZ28..hm..
18 years old and drive a 70 z/28 :p

[shiv15]

idk had it for years now but it always stuck

[mySStery_machine]

I have a thing for the old Scooby Doo and I thought it was a clever way to integrate my model type into a name at the same time.

[SparkyJJO]

Sparky is my nickname. I play with electricity :D The name Sparky is already taken (from the SSU user list apparently) so I added my initials on the end.

[Chris81]

My first car was a 81 Camaro, and of course i'm Chris.. so there you have it.

[CamaroKidZ28]

Wow, most of us are very simple.

[FlashLCD33]

Flash LCD - My first paintball gun, ever. A spyder Flash LCD. A junk spyder if you know paintball, but it was my gateway through all markers up to my matrix :punch:

33 - My favorite number. Inspired by Patrick Roy of the Colorado Avalanche. Back when they were a respectable hockey team, and back when I wanted to do pro hockey. He was in the cage, as was I :bash:

I chose the name probably 8 years ago, and stuck with it. Helps with credibility when you have 1 name/address on every forum, ebay, etc for 8 years :)

[twistedpower]

I've never been normal so Twisted worked for me and added the power because i love powerful cars

[AznMuscle]

Grandma is Japanese, and so I am a little also. I have always been "the jap", and when I got my T/A, well..."dude, wtf. An Asian with a muscle car". So that is how I started it.

[Greekey]

Umm, I'm greek and love gyros lol.

[96z28u]

96 z28 u

just something funny me and some friends made up...

h/c/i/n2o/9" and a 31" slick coming soon so i'll somewhat be able to back it up too lol ;)

[Ling_650vette]

I was already Ling_650vette on Yahoo...and a lot of my friends on there knew me as that.

That, and I fell in love with John' TT650 package when I opened up the pages of Motor Trend and saw all it was capable of.

Now...I just like it because John was such a great guy and ment a lot in the Corvette world. His passing was such a shock, that now its kinda my own personal hommage to the man

[mySStery_machine]

Had a chat with the Mrs. about vanity plates when I got the car.
It seemed right being a lowered firebird. Also fit on the plate nicely.

Is that the said Mrs. as your avatar? It seemed like a covert pic with the flash off the glass...:secret:

[LowBird]

Indeed. Fun times in Miami. She always has "fun" on vacation!

That is awesome

[JIBBBY]

My name is actually John so I started typing J then got wasted and confused and started hitting buttons after the J and ended up with JIBBBY...:moon:

[Greekey]

Lmao...Dont know how you ended up with Jibby from John. Rough night eh?

[The Manalishi]

Wow I just clicked into this page and saw that, so random. Richter was the man. I almost cried when he destroyed his knee the second time. If he'd been in goal for better teams later in his career he'd have even more wins than he had. It's looking Lundqvist will eventually break his record though.

here's another one...
