OT: What's the significance of your 2+2 username?

[Paul B.]

As for mine, I often used to call up a female friend of mine and say "hey gorgeous." She always retorted, "hey handsome." It became a "nickname" for lack of a better term, and as a big fan of irony I elected to use that for my username. Please note that it bares no semblance to reality, nor do I claim that it does. I am actually, in fact, pretty ugly.

How about you guys? I'm pretty curious.

[Jonsan]

I have trained in a traditional Japanese martial art for quite a few years. During class we use Japanese honorifics like 'chan', 'san', and 'sensei'. My first name is Jon, so during class most folks call me Jon-san.

[FlyWf]

It was my nickname on Airwarrior(a massively multiplayer flight sim) on AOL back in 1996 or so. I was the [censored] at being a tailgunner.

[Jakob]

Well I am pretty inventive, so I used my name!

Mine's like yours, the girls call me "pooh" and "crap" etc...

Actually, "poohbear" was my poolhall nickname...that's it.

duke gave me awv3 as my login back when i enrolled. it's my initials plus the number three. i guess i had been the third awv at that point.

wow. lame.

[Gobgogbog]

It contains all permutations of 'gob' - gob, gbo, ogb, obg, bgo, bog. I thought about going with Gebgegbeg, being a fanboy of Godel, Escer, Bach, but I didn't think that was as "pronounceable".

[Melchiades]

A book character.

[P.Dirty]

My original 2p2 name was pokerdirty. When Mat started allowing name changes, I decided that it was time to drop the poker part, considering it is a poker site and everyone knows that I play poker here, for just P. P.Dirty is a rip off of P.Diddy, who I'm not really a big fan of, but whatever. P.Dirty is also some Mexican rap dude, but I have not heard his beats.

[Todd]

It is the name my parents gave me. Seemed better to use that one than a 'handle' that might change in 6months time.
