mine is chosen because of my favourite truck brand!
well why the ending "fahrer" and not "trucker"?
so that you are able to see that i'm from germany :D
i could have also taken the bavarian ending "fahra"
so then it's obviously clear that i live in Bavaria :)
well maybe in another life :p

Mine was chosen in a rush and I have different nicknames on many sites, well I'm a fan of DAFs however no more than most other truck brands, so my name is a bit pointless really.

Well, you guys may guess where my nickname comes from.

Mercedes-Benzman212, just due to my knowledge and love towards Mercedes, and those numbers refer to current face-lifted E-Class (212). I just wanted to shorten it a little.

Mine is rather mundane. N4GIX is simply my Federal Communications Commission amateur radio callsign. As such, my 'nickname' is absolutely guaranteed unique!

The only reason for the rather odd concatenation of my license and actual name is because I originally logged in here using my Facebook account. :lol:

"Chris" because that is my name in English. It is actually Kristoffer, but i call myself Chris. 94 is because i am born in 1994 and NOR because i am from Norway. It is not that very advanced, my username. Pretty simple.
I also have another nickname, which only a few people call me. That nickname is "Kricco" and i also have "reffotsirK", my real name backwards.

In the 90's some computer games only had 3 or 4 slots for a highscore ranking. ScuL is the result of a random garble entry whilst achieving a highscore.
I like writing it with a big L as it makes it different and stands out

We've always used fred for names like that, especially on machines with keyboards. Quick and easy to type with two fingers. I'd hate to think how many emails [email protected] has had over the years.

Nectaria Coutayar started her life in the game Lineage II in 2004, I needed a good name for a human archer and started out from a Greek first name where I had to find a suitable last name for. Came up with this after a few hours of poundering and I've kept it as my prime online name since then.

Chances are high that if you find "Nectaria Coutayar" on the internet it's all me. For some reason even "Nectaria" which means "sweet as nectar" is a very rare name to use.
