how did you get your ID/online name

[Karabiner]

My loose aggressive style is legendary 

[Poppet7]

Poppet - My dad used to call me that when I was a little girl, he doesn't talk to me now but I still like it, I suppose it reminds me of the good old days. the 7 is because thats the day I met Leon so thats our special number (7.4.2001)

[Gilbern74]

A Gilbern is a Welsh make of car. Or was.

My dad had one and now it's mine. (Although it's still in his name but I've stripped it into a thousand pieces and now he doesn't want it back, and none of us are Welsh btw).

And it was registered in 1974.


And so Gilbern74 was born.

[Trace]

I have absolutely no idea why I chose this name!!!





Yes, I know I'm sad laughing at myself.

[Ginger]

When I first started playing on VC my ID was Ginger***** (yes, with the stars) naturally it got shortened to Ginger which I use on the majority of the sites. I think the name is pretty much self explanatory lol. Mind you, most of the red in my hair has gone now, Booooo.

[patman]

Seconds of careful thought an analysis...i`m simple so i kept it simple.

[Dirk Diggler]

Dirk Diggler is the lead character name from the film 'Boogie Nights'.  It's one of my fav films - it's soooo cheesey, cheeseey lines, acting, clothes, music etc... and I just love all that!....

For those who don't know it's a film about an ordinary boy (played by Mark Whalberg) being discovered by a porn film director and he wants to make the guy a star - he has a 'huge' talent you see.....they come up with the screen mane for him of 'Dirk Diggler'  He then goes on to be a star, and has a great time, money, girls, fame etc.........(forget about the bit when he becomes too big for his boots and a complete arse, a druggie etc!!......)

My quote at the bottom is a quote of his from the film.

Go hit Blockbusters...

[lazaroonie]

for years I have been affectionality known as Lazarus, after an incident in 1996 in Amsterdam involving much drink and the other stuff, a pancake shop, a pair of black patent leather shoess and some columbians.

I cant remember exactly when but at some pont someone started calling me lazaroonie (like a combination of lazarus and shockeroonie - a particularly west of scotland expression).

so thats it.

[SuffolkPunch]

I come from Suffolk and the Suffolk Punch is the famous horse breed that graces the badge of the best football team in the, er, county.

[Claw75]

Mine is boring!

Claw used to be my login at work (first initial and first three letters of my (then) surname).  75 is the year I was born.  I was going to use Clairep75 when I signed up to betfair (which is my usual name for forums and the like), but had to have a different nickname for playing with.  Am quite pleased about it now as having an androgynous name can be an advantage.

[action man]

i have 3 different usernames 

  The Claimer--------- My mate rang me and told me he had a new job working for a claims firm, so i thought The Claimer----that'll do


 Action1----------- action man derives from a toy hat from an action man figure given to me by a man in the bookies i used to work.


Awol7967----------- the 7967 was my old clock-in number at a factory i worked in for a while when i went broke in poker. When i got back on track i was off work a lot when having a good
                         poker session, so thats the awol. The name is always good to remind me of the crappy job i used to do for money

[mex]

mexico66, after the Mk1 ford escort which i love, 66 as i had to add at least 1 no and that was that, plus it tilts US players as they hate mexicains or at least they seem to.

Platy on other sites, as a platy is a small colourful mexicain fish.( so as to give a clue to my id on blu sqr)

Most people refer to me as mex at the tables.

[Pokerron]

The kids show Pokemon actually means Pocket Monster, which in poker means......well, you know.   So i thought Pokermon would be a hilarious play on words.   Sadly someone equally unfunny had beaten me to it, two 'r's look a bit like a 'm', so even though my name is Anthony, I went for Pokerron and it stuck.   I actually answer to the name Ronnie now!

Given my form on here I am thinking of changing my id to "The Thread Killer" 

[Cybertim]

My name was used because I own the website www dot cybertims dot com   (hehe didn't want to get in trouble for posting the link)

I also own www dot muffdivingclub dot com but reckoned that was not appropriate...   Oh and for informational purposes  MUFF is a place on the North coast of Northern Ireland which does actually have a diving club..   .   hmmmm   might just change my name now   hehe



btw that domain name is for sale if anyone fancies it  <grin>

[Alfa]

Alfa _ comes from a live long love of the cars that included me racing them for a couple of seasons

666 - My lucky number, as i was born on the 6th Hour, of the 6th day, of the 6th month
