What does your ENWorld name mean?

[Nifft]

Quite simply, I'm a professional philosopher.

"He thinks for a living?"

"Well, he thinks we're paying him!"

"Do-ho-ho-ho-ho!"

 

[Jeff Wilder]

My screen name is the name of the character I play. Everywhere.

 

[El Mahdi]

Mine is quite boring - the first three letters of my surname, followed by the first three letters of my first name.

That algorithm would have made mine Whinev...

...I would have been Aubant...

Mine would have been Armmar...a natural palindrome! And it rhymes with Armor. I'll have to remember that for a character some day. I'll make him a Knight and call him the "Palindrome Paladin"...



edit: Not a palindrome...just a tad dyslexic today I guess I'd have to call him the "Almost Palindrome Paladin"...

 

[Jacob Marley]

Mine is a reference to a character in Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. I have used this name (or variations of) on other message boards that I have belonged to. It also happens to be a subtle reference to what I do for a living (i.e. banking & investments).

 

[Wednesday Boy]

You wanted the best! You got the best! The hottest name in the world! Wednesday Boy!

It's a line from the KISS song, "Let Me Know" and as we all know KISS is the greatest band ever.

Plus it'll synergize well with my fledgling superhero career as soon as I get bitten by a radioactive Wednesday.

*tilts head to the left* *tilts head to the right* *stands on his head*

I don't get it.

What's a natural palindrome then? And why doesn't it resemble a palindrome?

Crap! You're right...I must be a bit dyslexic today...

edit: I guess I'd have to change it to Armmra...which just doesn't work the same. Sounds like something Godzilla would have to fight...Oh well...

 

[jonesy]

Mine by the way is my real life nickname merged with my initials. Nothing fancy. Plus the end result comes out as Ripley's cat.

Would your nemesis be Monday Man (with his depression inducing powers...)?

"Nifft" is the protagonist of a Sword & Sorcery book that I liked.

I always thought you were named after that herb that you use in the old game Bloodstone (? I think), but a search suggests that is actually spelled with only one "f".

And the only reason I know that is ages ago on AlexMUD, someone had a bunch of characters named Nift, Gonshi, Mergit, etc.

My screen name is the name of the character I play.

I've heard he's a real bad-a$$, too.
