    Story behind the Username

    Hey guys i have always been curious upon usernames and i love some of them on here. So any one who doesn't mind sharing i was hoping i can get the story behind why you chose the username you have. I'll strt with mine

    The silver part is i love an wear alot of silver jewelery rings mainly [Hate Gold] Fox because my fav book [not movie] is Fantastic Mr. Fox so i put them together and 0786 is becasue 786 is a symbolic number to me as it is to many. Silverfox as a whole is always gone so i tried silverfox786 which is always gone to so i added the 0 infront that is always available. After a few times of using that name i decided to stick to it and just automaticaly just choose silverfox0786 its become me now.

    So there you have it there is mine. Now you please...

    Ojustaboo
    Mine started out a few years ago when I started playing an online game and picked an auto generated name.

    It picked Ojustabo

    I then created another character and simply added another "o" to it making Ojustaboo.

    People then started referring to me online as "boo" and it sort of stuck.. So now whenever I create a forum name or whatever, I always use Ojustaboo. It has the added bonus of no one else (so far) ever using it, so it's always available, hence don't have a load of usernames to remember.

    Wrote a reply for this, pressed the back button by accident, then forwards and message had all gone Grrrr Firefox :angry:

    Anyway, as I stated previously, I have quite a few usernames, and this is the only one which doesn't really have a story to it... I just chose a username randomly, and this one was it, lol. I think I might've used it before when younger as a mild childish insult, is where it came from, lol...

    As for my other usernames, my most commonly used for day to day stuff like emails etc, comes from just my surname and initials. It was the first proper username I was ever issued, which I received when I went to university. And it's stuck with me ever since...

    My other username comes from a mick-take from when we used to text obscenities Basically, try typing an insulting word, which could also be used as a name for female genitalia on nokia (at least older ones anyway) predictive text. You'll come up with a word that I just used as my username. However, everytime I tried it on most places, it was already used, so I used the year that I first started to try it, and have stuck with it ever since...

    And my final username (I say that, as it's my xbox live name) comes about, again from university... Now I usually get flamed on xbox live for this, because I'm always told I have wrote it wrong The username is foobar, and am constantly told it should be fubar!!!!! (all the exclamations, as it's c00l to do that ). Anyway, as some of the users here will probably know, I am not talking about fubar, but the foobar that I got for my first piece of C+ programming :

    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
     
    int main()
    {
       char foo[] = "Hello,";
       char bar[] = "World!";
       printf("%s %s\n", foo, bar);
     
       return 0;
    }
    Anyway, there you have my stories hehe
