dead and loving it
06-15-2007, 08:23 AM
There are a lot of interesting screen names here at ATZ.
How did you arrive at yours?
I was going through different movie references in my head, and I thought of the Mel Brooks movie Dracula : Dead And loving It.

one of my oldest friends gave me this nickname we would party alot and he just blurted it out since then its kinda stuck and its alot better than the old one people used to call me by "Crazy Pete" i have and never will sell used cars, discount furniture, or matresses so that name didnt quite work out besides id have to get a ten gallon hat.

My first name is Sam, middle name is Robert (Robert is shortened to Bob, never understood why). Doesn't take a genius to work it out.

HOO-HAA, how come you changed it from Spiral, HOO-HAA may be the name of your business thing, so fair play, but Spiral is yooooouuuuuuu.

HOO-HAA you have the most intresting name at ATZ, and the craziest looking avatar:drinking:
The day I joined, my nieces gold fish Fred just died, so my niece picked out the name Undead Fred. Fred the goldfish was giving a buriel at sea, FLUSH.

I put mine together because I was once a huge RESIDENT EVIL fan, I mean mega and I wanted something that would put both RESIDENT EVIL and my obsession with zombies, so I combined "evil" and "zombie", added a round random number a viola; evilzombie20.
Too bad, that story sounded a lot more interesting in my head. Oh well.

Victor Clark is my real name, and I thought I had to put in my real one when I signed up. Oh well, at least it's sort of original.

Well I was ONCE a huge RESIDENT EVIL fan. Now I consider myself to just be a fan, although I do have a bit of RE fanfare left over. It's nice to dig through it once in a while. Wish I still had the MP3 CD my friend made for me with all the scores for all the games and the film.

TheDeadHarlequinQueen
06-17-2007, 03:21 PM
Good question. Truth is I have no clue. I was on MSN one day and was trying to think of something totally awesome to put as my display name. Well, I LOVE the word harlequin for some reason and so I was like "Hmm... what about Harlequin... nah, it needs something else." Then BAM! The Dead Harlequin Queen came to be. Then when Dad told me to join ATZ, I knew EXACTLY what I wanted my name to be. Yep, nothin really spectacular about how I came up with it but I am impressed with the end result if I may say so myself. :P

Crickler
06-18-2007, 07:55 AM
My surname is Crick, and Crickler is one of my longest standing nicknames (and one of the politest) so i've been using it as my forum name for ages. I used to be Penfold on a couple of forums, named after a character from Dangermouse.

Dagnammit
06-18-2007, 07:02 PM
It was a nickname I used to use on IRC when I was a teenager. I started off using the UnderNet network and I used the nickname Marty, but when I moved to DALnet the nick was already taken, and I had seen a movie or something where someone used the word "dagnammit!" so I typed that instead to signify my frustration.
Rivetting, huh? :lol:

Corpse Grinder
06-19-2007, 02:46 AM
I used to work at a cemetery & my foreman had stained teeth from chewing tobacco. We used to say that he chewed on the corpses & that he was in charge of the guardians of the cemetery, who we called the corpse grinders. (We had alot of knicknames for people & things there) I always liked that name & I tell my kids not to mess with graveyards or the Corpse Grinders will get 'em!

06-19-2007, 03:25 AM
Got mines from the original Medal of Honor. There's a secret character named Stevens, who's a velociraptor (Steven Speilberg directed Medal of Honor). Although his screen name is Stevens, the announcer calls him "The Velociraptor".
Iron Knuckles
06-19-2007, 06:03 AM
In high school one of my friends was taking boxing lessons and upset that he could never go full bore training. So I offered to box him and I went around talking smack about how I was going to beat him. I took his picture with a cell phone one day and told him "this is so the doctors know how to arrange your face when I'm done" and I printed up posters saying "FINAL FIGHT -JAKE "THE DAISY"- LAWRENCE VS BOB - "IRON KNUCKLES - SCHOFIELD"
PS when we finally boxed I hammered him in the sternum, broke his nose with a jab, and then hit him with a right hook that knocked him out. He was laying on the ground so long we almost called the ambulance but he ended up being fine.

06-20-2007, 01:11 AM
I chose the name to use as a front name for an electronic music project my friends and I were working on in the late 90's called Unkle Daddy.

Foster = promote the growth of, help develop, help grow

Screwballgunnut
08-10-2008, 07:02 PM
I went with ScrewballGunnut, because, well it fits.
I'm very, very unique, as most of my friends tell me. I personally prefer screwball because of all the old bugs bunny cartoons where he holds up the pictogram of a screwball to describe anybody thats a little bit odd. The gunnut part is just truth in advertising. I am, I trade & swap guns like nobody's business. My friends all know that if they've got a gun and need some cash, show up at my house.
Speaking of which, anybody got any guns they wanna sell today? :evil:
Simply Pimpalicious
08-10-2008, 09:07 PM
Several years ago I went all out on a pimp outfit for Halloween. I started working on it in February when I got my tax refund. I even produced and published a website called simplypimpalicious.com (no longer online), that made it look like I was looking for hos to work for me, then handed out business cards with the link. As has been said before, the name stuck.

I hate using my real name when I'm ordering food or answering survey questions or doing anything online, and used "Wyatt Powers" when I was creating a blog.
July was "Zombie Month" on my blog (and a miserable failure, but that's a different story) and since I found this board while doing Zombie Month research, it just made sense to use it as my s/n.
secretcog
08-17-2008, 02:32 AM
My ATZ name is my everything name...almost.
It started in a Yahoo chatroom: Science: Extraterrestrial Life: Room 1 years ago as Cognatio Honesto aka Undisclosed, and somehow turned into Cog aka Undies.
Since then I became the "secret cog," and not of my own accord. So it stuck.

44hogleg
10-04-2009, 06:19 PM
I think mine's pretty straight forward, I love .44's and a hogleg is another name for a revolver. I thought of the name itself while listening the the Hank Williams Jr. song I've Got Rights (the first verse of the song starts with "I went went down to the mary carter paint store...I said, gimme one of them smith and wesson magnum 44's..." for those of you who don't know it)
