where did everyone come up with their login names?

mine comes from R.A. Salvatores books about a dark elf, a dwarf, a barbarian, a human, and a halfling. Aegis Fang is the war hammer the barbarian carries, it comes back magically to his hands when he throws it. It is also Bruenor's(the dwarf) lifes work, the one thing in a dwarfs life that he does perfectly. just curious please share.

OX===Stands for Theta Chi
Man===After all, I am a man
K===My name starts with a K

Mine's from a local story/legend about a phantom hitchhiker who flags down cars at a nearby location then disappears.

Ultra : From MKUltra

Phoenix : The Phoenix , eternity, nobody can't kill the Phoenix.

A fictional character (with whom I felt a certain rapport, long ago) in a play by Samuel Beckett called "Waiting for Godot".
It is co-incidentally the French for a herb (tarragon); but beyond the fact that we are both a bit dry and bitter - there's no culinary connection.

erms my login name came from one of the prophecy.
where this prophecy stated that one day there will be a battle at the armaggedon in ISRAEL so before this battle came to take place there is an alliance form
from a different country with a different politic background so this alliance motive is to destroy whatever cross on their path to crush the RIDER OF THE WHITE HORSE most people believe this guys to be a JESUS ermsss who knows hihihihi

Mine is my old nickname and the ending is because i was born on the day of a planetary alignment!

Ravenstar!

Deepwaters came from my own imagination & creativity.

For me, it typifies my deep nature, curiosity, interest in things off the beaten track and open mindedness.

I suppose the old saying that, "Still waters, run deep" may have been an inspiration.

All the Best,
Deep

My nick is usually el_tandino but i dropped the el bit cos everyone kept asking if i was spanish.
My nick was thought up in a spanish lesson though. It's a variation of my surname intertwined with a bit of a spanish vibe.
I'm a taurus as well and the whole spanish > bullfighting connection played a part in it i suppose.
That's me anyway. Not a lot of imagination went into mine really.

When i began wicca i chose a wiccan name... this is my user name...

Cinnamon - my fave flavour
Phoenix - im always rising from the ashes of defeat
Jayne - my RL middle name

for an Orc in an MORPG that never came out. (Massive Online Role-Playing Game, similar to EverQuest, which was an addiction of mine, hehe....) I just tried to come up with a name that wasn't taken on a hotmail account, and I finally succeeded with this one. So, since it is always available, I use it as a login for many things...

High_Lord: rank above Lord in ideal feudalism, I mean they had the entire "lesser lord" thing goin', so why not use High Lord? Besides, they were nobles and had a lot of power in Western Europe for a while. Which makes 'em cool.

Warrior: Heh.... turns out that this has nothing to do with the other part. I just thought it sounded cool.

I made mine up.

I got mine from a very drunk friend,who couldn't say my name right.Most of the guy's I worked with were around when he kept calling me nyeff,so I kinda got stuck with it.Figured it would work well as a user name.

I rowed in high school, and All For One was the name of my boat. Basically just an ode to all we accomplished for our backwater little club. Ended up finishing fourth at the Scholastic Nationals. Not too bad for a team no one had ever heard of.

Your question requires a bit of decoding.

Floating-point operations in OCaml follow the IEEE-standard usage of
never causing an exception, but return infinities or (silent) NaNs
when something is weird.

Most processors (and I believe the IEEE standard) offer the option
to raise exceptions instead of returning NaNs, infinities or denormals.
This facility is not available from OCaml because it's not provided
by ANSI C nor by POSIX, which are essentially what the OCaml runtime
system is building upon.

NANS. *DO NANS 1 101 102 103 104 204 105 205 106 ... NANS 1#NAN (1) Mean Spill 2#NAN (2) Not a Number: Making NANs and testing for NANs.

You have understood something ?! If so, please contact, doctor Freud, Berlin Gemany...

I guess mine is pretty self explanatory, although not very creative like some of yours.

Nans, as usual - I'm left bedazzled by your complexity.

Proud Americam - you're cool Bro, no need to feel less than others. I could easily have used that name because it defines my love for America, but you got it first.

Everybody else, well done!

Keep truckin,
Deep

mine is just my initials reversed, plus represents one of my favourite shapes - crescent moon, really elegant bridges etc

I got mine because I lurked on this board forever before actually decideing to become a member. And I generally read more than I participate here. So I am the observer. I really like reading the interesting things that are posted here but as I am more of an Historian than a full blown conspiracy theorist I usually figure I should not make a fool of myself by posting something that will get me "killed".
