I am really Tuomas, and that's my real surname on my e-mail address. I once considered of changing my username, and started a thread asking for suggestions for a new name, and someone (was it you Huck?) came up with a wonderful name (at least I think it was wonderful, because I can't recall it), but I decided to be just Tuomas after all. Apologies to whomever suggested the new name.

Tuomas, oh, I'm sure it was me. I'm full of wonder. I don't remember what it was either though.

I'm sorry, you look familiar, but I...I'm just not placing you. Did you used to date my sister?

After an incident involving government snipers, I became VengaDan.

I did manage to post for a few days with http://www.burgerpipe.com/images/burgerpipes.gif as my screen name, but unfortunately the ability to post images as screen names was taken away very quickly.

Started off as Dee the Lurker.
Stopped being a lurker; went to being Dee the Semi-Lurker.
Stopped being a semi-lurker; went to being Innocent Dreamer.
Thought Innocent Dreamer was terrible; went to being Just Deanna.
Tired of Just Deanna; went to being Legendary Nothingness.
Hated Legendary Nothingness; went to being Many Coloured Halo.
Gave Many Coloured Halo a rest; went to being Tenacious Dee.
Tired of Tenacious Dee; went to being As Sweet As Melody.
Gave As Sweet As Melody a rest; went to being Mellow Dee.
Tired of Mellow Dee; went back to being Many Coloured Halo.
Gave Many Coloured Halo another rest; went to being Those Beautiful Lines (as of May 7, it turns out).

Wow. Eleven name changes, or something along those lines. But considering that I've actually found a nickname I really feel comfortable with (Many Coloured Halo) and one that's not half bad (Those Beautiful Lines), I don't think I'll be making any additional nickname changes for a very long period of time. Don't hold me to that, though. Might get tempted to do otherwise.

And no, I've never posted anything using my full real name. A number of people know it and are keeping it close to them (well, if they know what's good for them, that is *wink*) and that's good enough for me.

I've got a new name. Let's see how long this lasts.

Brian Wilson (Anthony Miccio), Tuesday, 15 June 2004 22:07 (nineteen years ago) link

Hey Brian Wilson!

Those Beautiful Lines (Dee the Lurker), Tuesday, 15 June 2004 22:09 (nineteen years ago) link

I like my new name. I wonder how long it will last. Heh heh.

My settings permanently show user name attached to each post. It's possibly one of the most useful settings that most people don't use.

Past - Lynskey
Future - Gribowitz

one month passes...
Revive!

Because there seems to be some new names here after the two week break.

Tuomas (Tuomas), Sunday, 18 July 2004 21:05 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm considering a change to Tommy Dreamer, I dunno.

Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Sunday, 18 July 2004 21:13 (nineteen years ago) link

Heh.

I went back to Many Coloured Halo because I actually do love it. Even though my Duran fanhood seems to be diminishing by the day. These days, I get more giddy fangirlish over Franz Ferdinand. Aw, that cute little Bob Hardy. *sigh* That adorable Nick McCarthy. That gorgeous Alex Kapranos. That pretty Paul Thompson. I will naturally try to fight the impulse to change nicknames to "Words So Leisured" or similar until they release a second album or six months has passed, whichever is later.

Anyway.

Maybe we could do another round, I've lost count after the nu-ILX wave of name changes.

I'm still Tuomas.

Still think this is in general a cheap thing to do btw

Planck Blather (darraghmac), Wednesday, 21 February 2018 21:19 (six years ago) link

counterpoint: extravagant

parents only named you once

j., Wednesday, 21 February 2018 21:48 (six years ago) link

A fair perspective.

That said j. seems a little minimalist if it's ur big statement piece

Planck Blather (darraghmac), Wednesday, 21 February 2018 21:50 (six years ago) link

no statements where none intended
