What's the reason for your username?

[grubbyhands]

I'm a car mechanic, simples.

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

In the extremely unlikely event that I was to star in a porn movie.
Absolutely nothing to do with the iconic bicycle.

 

[catfish]

Homage to my favourite American blues guitarist Catfish Keith.

 

[pornomagboy]

I love porn mags

 

[Stevie Boy]

My name is Steve

 

[Mellotron]

Play on my surname and a nickname I was given. Also the name of a fantastic synth I would like to own one day.

 

[Mowgli37]

Why is your nickname Mowgli?

It really vaguely sounds like my surname, I got called it once and its stuck!

I'm not a small, feral Indian boy with an American accent if that's what you were thinking

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

My name is Tom and I amin a band called Two Choices. The caps were certainly a bad choice.

 

[Seagull]

Caw. Can you believe no one had picked this name before 2009?
But as I am a seabird of the family Laridae in the sub-order Lari, it seemed a no-brainer to me.
Caw. Are you going to finish those chips?

 

[Publius Ovidius]

I have had three in my time here: Pit bull, a cricketer pal coined that when one game I was particularly aggressive towards the opposing batsmen...and all snarly and petulant!
Then dave the gaffer, named by lady Bracknell when I used to run the REMF football team in the early days.
Finally granny weatherwax, a cantankerous old witch in the discworld books by terry pratchett. Seemed to fit nicely.
If tomorrow's announcement at work goes bad it could be changed to "lookingforajobatmyage"

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

Well........

[yt]qn4lJqbv7So[/yt]

 

[wunt be druv]

Because I am a stubborn ******* and proud to be from Sussex.

 

[Rogero]

There is another forum site and everyone seems to finish with an o on the end so I followed suit.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Obviously because I'm from Hove, actually

 

[Luke93]

I'm very, VERY creative...

 

[Leighgull]

Well........

[yt]qn4lJqbv7So[/yt]

Bloody hell. What a racket.

 

[dolphins]

Mine was from when I started watching them as a nipper at the Goldstone, whilst the team were still also known as The Dolphins. That, and all the better names I could think of had already gone!

 

[Dumseagull]

Because i'm a seagulls fan and i am quite unintelligent

 

[maltaseagull]

I like to state the bleeding obvious

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

At one point with NSC you entered your username as you posted - hence the thread filled with posts from various Pete's. About that time I think people were being negative about DK (plus ca change) and I took on the persona of his mother, posting about drinking halves of milk stout down the Hove British Legion, preparing his Sunday lunch, and defending my son.

Then there came the moment when everyone's NSC name were re-named as drinks - and Mumm stuck.
