Well, I started with my first name. Then I thought that what would go really well with my first name would be my last name. Then I decided to be really cutting edge and use something instead of a space. I spent a few weeks scribbling it out with hypens and periods... Hell, I even put an ampersand in there if you can believe it. Then one day in the shower it hit me like a ton of bricks - an underscore! It was perfect, and I've never looked back.

My username was the obvious choice, since I am, in fact, not Scyess.

I did do gabe's whole hyphen-and-period thing, though.

I'm "Young", and "Scottish", and "The"

The following statement its true. The previous statement is false

100 pounds of shit in a 25 pound sack.

Frank's my middle name, and around school and where I worked out my nickname was "Big Frank" so I decided to use that because I really couldn't think of anything else. The "105" is just some random numbers I threw in there for no reason.

I'll ruin the Captain Obvious mood for you then.

Poison Ivy was always my favorite villain and in high school people used to call me that (along with Spock, but that's for entirely different and surprisingly non-nerdy reasons) because I was always growing plants and talking about killing all humans, etc. In college I stepped up my world domination plans and continued growing plants in my dorm room, but specialized in the poisonous ones and had quite a lovely garden of foxglove, hemlock, and belladonna. At some point in my freshman year I started playing some mobster RPG and picked Ivy Da Plant as my mobster name. A week later I was IvyThePlant online and I've been that ever since.

So despite what my Crazy Ex Neighbor says, I never copied her by picking the name Ivy. I was Ivy while she was being deported from South Korea for drug trafficking in the US embassy.

It was just some random name I came up with 9 years ago when I first started using the internet. Didn't realise I had been spelling it wrong until about 2 years ago. Don't really mind though, it's nice because I rarely have a problem with other people having registered the name before me.

Poop.

Christopher7Murphy is a name I've used Pre computer age. Signing my art work throughout middleschool and past college. Sometimes it's C7Murphy.

The 7 is actually a mutated letter "T"....my middle initial. The other kids got a kick out of "C7" and I've use it as a signature on and off the internet to this day.

You can ask my brothers Christopher6, Christopher5, ChristopherEarthTwo, and ChristopherEarthCaptainCarrot if you don't believe me.

Insert Theme to Mannix here

I had the nickname 'Lima' in college after a few mis-spellings of my name (Liam) cropped up in report cards and such. It has since evolved to 'Lemur', and though no one has called me that in five years, I still use 'Lemur' as my handle/nickname on the net.

Not that interesting really.

[Click to view comic: 'Sodomy, Myself, and Faint Screams']

I think I made a comic about the origin of my nick... but here it is in print anyway.

In grade 12, I had a cold for about 2 months, alternating between strep throat and nasal congestion, and sometimes a wonderful combination of the two. Anyway, for our band trip, we went to Banff, AB (resort town in the mountains), and there were 4 of us crashing in the room. I had a big problem with snoring (due to nasal congestion), and one of my friends commented on how she couldn't sleep that night because I was snoring so loudly. In her words, I sounded like a lion. We decided that everyone should get to bed before I did, in hopes that they would be in a deep enough sleep that they wouldn't hear me. When we woke up the next day, I asked if they slept and/or if I had snored loudly and the friend that had made the comment said "No, you sounded like a little kitty" and then proceeded to warp her hand into what could assumedly be the shape of a kitty and repeated "little kitty" several times.

The end.

Okay, Lindsay, are you forgetting that I was a professional twice over - an analyst and a therapist. The world's first analrapist.

attitudechick was taken.

Originally, my name on the internet was joey510. Joey was my nickname in school, long before the days of Dawson's Creek's Joey Potter (though I stopped getting strange stares when introduced to other people once the show was a sucess in my age group). Then I wanted to get a yahoo account, because I was in love with this guy who wanted to communicate with me on yahoo. I was 13 - I was in love with him for exactly the amount of time that it took me to download said messenger. Anyhow, my brother happened to be around that particular day and we had an exchange at the time that I was picking my screen name for yahoo. He eventually gave me the same "you have an attitude problem" response which clearly translates to "you are superior to me, so I am going to insult you, resulting in me looking like I have some type of upper hand". So I tried attitudechick. Because I didn't really want to be known as the attitudechickie, and the underscore debate was too much for my brain to handle, attitudechicka it was. And it has been.

Mediocrity at its most average.

Back when I started (Junior year of high school, my God) using Stripcreator I was extremely unlucky. I always ended up getting the shaft in any situation and developed a sort of infamy for it. Therefore on the internet I would be Lucky, for the internet is not real life (back before I started meeting people from California who I met on the web).

As for the Guess part, logic fails to circulate among most of my family and the inherent excuse for any decision made by them that results in something bad happening is, "I guess it was your fault, wasn't it?" Guessing resulted in most unfortunate happenstance falling on my shoulders in terms of blame.

Hence, LuckyGuess.

I put my real name into a Hobbit Name Generator in anticipation of Fellowship of the Ring. Bolo Boffin came back. I'm, like, related to Bilbo. I think his mom was a Boffin.

Well, on the Internet, anyway.

i used to be a very angry person. i've mellowed out a bit now that i'm making a buck or two and can afford such things as food and utilities.

so when i started up my t shirt co. i named it angry american t shirts, and thought i'd stick with it for a handle.

god. that's lame.

let me think of something far more interesting and i'll say i was lying in this reply and the real truth is.....

Kill Whitey.

I thought user name was different from screen name, JES are my initials.

Please replace the handset, and try again.

I just used my first two initials and my last name.

It was such a waste of everyone’s time and money that even the Tokyo stadium’s rape robots apologized– something they were programmed specifically never to do.

Arbi is short for arbitrary aardvark.

Someplaces it gets shortened to vark - e.g. http://vark.blogspot.com, www.myspace.com/vark.

One time I needed yet another freebie email account, I think it was at themail.com. I wanted something I could remember, so I picked something arbitrary like "aardvark" only that was taken, and so was ardvark and aaardvark, so i typed in arbitraryaardvark and that worked.

The cape and the crimefighting superpowers came later.

After 6 years, I came to my senses and dumped my fiancee for being the skank bitch that she was. I wanted to go out and date as many girls as possible, so along with set ups & pickups, I took things into my own hands (yes, a masturbatory reference) and tried my hand on an internet dating site as well.I wanted to plant the seed (pun intended) to the potential girls that I was good in bed by my nickname. So I came up with Cre8tive.ÊÊMost girls will tell you that using the number 8 technique with the tongue on a certain part of their body rocks their world....so the 8 was subliminal.ÊMy favourite number, and the number I always wear on my sport jerseys, is 13 as I am anti- superstitious. Thus, Cre8tive13 was formed....and having a poor memory and no imagination, I use it for every site I am on.

The first time I used it was on a local music message board back when I was feeling sorry for myself about my complete musical obscurity. Since nobody had ever heard of me, I was "Unknown Eric." And it just stuck with me. Before that, on various chat rooms, I was "Digsy" after Oasis' "Digsy's Dinner."

I has a flavor!

there's this scene in ace ventura i always liked where ace goes down to a club and meets with this l33t computer hacker greenpeace guy. there's this brief interaction where one of them says something like, "how's it going, mandingo?" and the other says "pretty good, manishevitz." always liked that, so i took the name. worked out well because the racially-themed Mandingo book and movie ties in with the fact that i like to push the envelope and use the word nigger a lot. watch. nigger. told you.

what if nigger meant kite

It's just my name.

Let's get dangerous!

Here's the meaning: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=umfundisi&defid=1631511

I got it from the Alan Paton novel Cry the Beloved Country.

When first using it on the Net, I couldn't remember the exact spelling. To my complete chagrin, I also could not find my copy of the novel. So I went with umfum.

And now choad makes fun of me for it.

I made this account so I could make stupid in-joke comics about my friends without them appearing on my main account at the time (toomuchcoffeeguy). Later I tripped the flood ban on tmcg and didn't realise I had to e-mail brad to have it fixed. By the time I figured it out it seemed easier to keep this name.

toomuchcoffeeguy was a blatant rip off of the webcomic too much coffee man.
