This has been posted before by Håkan, but I'll answer it anyway, my name means high-king (or something like it - Hå is Norse high and konr is Norse for king)

[woke25]

My nickname is very boring. WoKe23 stands for my name and age: WOuter KErpershoek 23 years old (im now actually 24 already). So i should change my nickname every year, but thats kinda hard since im a moderator now and it would screw up my post count.

 

[Simon Darkshade]

I answered in the other thread, but have since changed the meaning of my name. It may appear to be English, and Earthling, but is actually in the tongue of the planet Wubble, in the Beta-Hurdyburdy solar system.
It is difficult to translate, but comes out something like:
"Most high and most evil great master of all he surveys.Long and bloody is his eternal reign and all shall cower in his most eloquent shadow"
So there.

[FearlessLeader2]

I'm an American, our names don't mean ****.

Fearless Leader? Ever watch Rocky and Bullwinkle? The 2 is because I forgot my password for FL, and couldn't access my home account from work, and just didn't feel like switching back. (If any moderators are reading, feel free to delete FearlessLeader, I'll never use it again...)

 

[xeven_god_of_helsibahr]

Mine:

Xeven = Me, of course

God = Supreme Ruler

of = of

Helsibahr = A country I made-up

 

[Micah]

Micah is my name.

 

[Thunderfall]

Thunderfall does not stand for "God of Thunder" (contrary to popular belief...). It's just a powerful spell in the Sega Saturn game Dragon Force.

 

[stellar converter]

my name, is of course derived from the latin:

stellarium convertium (in some texts, maximum is added)

it is roughley translated to big weapon, which is what it is in masters of orion. a very cool game from ancient rome.

besides its grand lineage from latin, etc., it sounds good, and has been passed down from generation to generation.

 

[BlueMonday]

BlueMonday is term that is sometimes used by workers who don't like their jobs. They refer to the day they go back to work as BlueMonday.

However, I took the name BlueMonday from a book by Kurt Vonnegut called "Breakfast of Champions." It's the story of the meeting of a pontiac dealer with bad brain chemicals and a sci-fi writer who publishes in porno magazines. The sci-fi writer publishes a story in the form of a letter from the creator of the universe to whomever is reading it. It tells the reader that they are the only thinking and feeling living thing on the planet, and that everybody else is a robot there for it's stimulation. The pontiac dealer takes it literally because of his bad brain chemicals and goes on a killing spree.
