What are the origins of your user name? Is it a nick name? Private joke? Did you put much thought into it or just put down the first thing that popped into your head?
As for me sometimes, especially on sleepless nights I spend a lot of time surfing the internet in cyber space. I don't even know what I'm looking for half of the time, it's like I'm in a trance - a coma - a CyberComa.

My ex-girlfriend (who was my girlfriend at the time of aquiring my name) was on some wierd thing on the Internet called "Find Your Goth Name". Really all it was, was a random word selector that took a word from one list and threw it together with a word from another list.
My goth name is Candlelight Chaos, and I thought it sounded so cool that I would make it my official Internet name.

Mine is just a cobination of my first and second name.
Vincent Simmons=Vinnysimmo
I'm 6-foot-8, 290 pounds, and my name starts with a G. There you have it. LOL
I started using the "BigTall" thing on AOL about 6 or 7 years ago, and it just stuck with me.
Word to the wise : don't mess with the drummer.
Back a while ago i mis pelt my name on another forum, and have gone by that user name since. my actual name is Damyne
I really wish that we could actually show the pictures in here...
i had an accident.
i just took tne name of the insterment i play timpani or im called timpanist and the year i guraduate 09 and combined them
power to the timpani
www.myspace.com/diehardtimpanist
Its a spin-off of my last name, which has "ches" in it, but its said "chez" so i started getting called cheesenips by my football coach he studderds, and says the first thing to pop in his head that sounds relivant to what hes trying to read/say
And i got cheezz,now it looks horrible without the 3's so i end up with ch33zz
I was the first person to post. Well, actually it was su_admin but he doesn't count. So anyway, I thought it would be cool to have the incredibly simple, yet so practical name of "drummer". I picked it for two reasons:
1. I'm lazy and it's easy to type in.
2. Because where else in the world can you pick "drummer" as your user name and have it be available. I just thought that was too cool!
Metal-Head..... combine the name with the avatar, and its pretty self explanitory

I was making my own djembe and needed money for rings and string so I could finish it. I bummed it from some hippies and they started calling me "the one drum bum" and it kinda stuck.

That explains a lot, 1DB--
CyberComa, I thought I was the only one who got dazed and confused after surfing the 'net (yeah, right!)...
Now how did "bongobro" become "bongobro"? I have a teen-aged buddy who shares my birthday (he's actually young enough to be my own son) and shares my love for hand percussion (we've jammed together on many occasions, including the two "Latin Night" escapades in another thread), so I started calling ourselves "the bongo brothers."
Actually, I consider any guy who digs--and plays--hand percussion to be my "bongo brother." (If you happen to be a female, I use the term "conga chick," but I really don't like that term since it sounds a little sexist.)
... "bongobro" is a contraction of "bongo brother," and if I do say so, it's a cool nickname for a hand drummer...
BTW, I have since learned there is an Australian group called "The Bongo Brothers" that's very popular with children--hb58, have you ever heard of them?
keep the beat goin' ... Don't keep it to yourself!

"If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away." --Henry David Thoreau, "Walden," 1854
"There's a lot to be said for Time Honored tradition and value." --In memory of Frank "fiacovaz" Iacovazzi
"Maybe your drums can be beat, but you can't."--Jack Keck
I can't say I have bongobro. I did a little quick google search, to no avail. I'd be interested hearing some of their stuff if anyone manages to find anything. I'm way to tired right now to make a serious research effort.
Anyway, onto my name: My last name is Bell, which has spawned a whole bunch of usernames for various forums. I liked Hellsbells the best, so I tend to use that the most now. As for 58, I'm not sure where that came from. I have a feeling it was some long lost thing back when I used to play Runescape in like Year 8 of High School. That's just my hunch though.
