View Full Version : What does your nickname mean?



slayer
06-01-2001, 12:01 PM
OK I will go first: from dictionary.com
slayer \Slay"er\, n. One who slays; a killer; a murderer; a destrroyer of life.

that is a bit dramatic so transfer kill to shoot with paintballs, murderer to eliminator and life to mumbers of the other team on the field.

perhaps a better word would be terminator, or eliminator but I don't think any sound as cool as slayer.

DarkRipper
06-01-2001, 03:32 PM
OK, long story.

I bought an angel from a guy that already had the nickname "ripper" for his way of ripping up a tapeline. His angel was nicknamed the "ripperangel."

So, people called ME ripper after that. (Also hence my email account: ripper68@email.com)
I bought a Dark Angel as my next gun, and changed my nick to DarkRipper.

End of story.

No, I'm not changing to Emagripper.

Tack
06-01-2001, 09:21 PM
Tack is short for Tackelberry, The GI Joe like character from the Police Academy movies. I got the nickname while I was in the police academy because I usually carried as many weapons on my person as possible. My Knife, Gerber Tool, Expandable Baton. I also got the nickname of Rambo when I first started paintballing because I used to carry almost a full case of paint on me for every game. Also I modified my Tippmann 98 to look like an assault rifle so it was only natural.

Now it's BobDigi, or just Digi. Apparently, there were a bunch of people at Skyball asking the Canadian Contingent if 'Digi' was there.

Also, anyone here who may frequent #pigchat would know me as CannibalBlack. I was on a paintball team called the Cannibals. The Black thing came from a radio callsign...it's a long and sad story that has a lot to do with outlaw paintball,... suffice to say, I'm all about field ball these days.

My great grandparents came from Germany in the early 1900s. I also study German at the Unversity of Minnesota. My family has a military tradition, so I figured it just kind of makes sense.

I added an extra "r" for uniqueness.

The correct spelling is "phaseshifter" (with an s) but I thought it looked better with a "z." Anyway, I'm in the Air Force and I work on ECM (electronic countermeasures) systems--also known as EWS (electronic warfare systems.) A phaseshifter is a component in an ECM pod--which is used for radar jamming and deception. Anyway, I worked on them for a little over 5 years, and I thought that it was pretty cool sounding. It also sort of describes my personality--I sometimes wake up on the wrong side of the universe.

Well, I think I've bored you enough with this crap... :D

My nickname is Mo Jo. Its supposed to be the monkey from the power puff girls cartoon, Mo jo jo jo. It got shortened to Mo Jo in time. Im 6 feet 6 inches tall and very lanky so I look like a monkey at times.
It also has another meaning but If I have to explain what mo jo is to you then you proably shouldnt know.

G-Rock
05-29-2004, 07:39 AM
Well let me see.

It started in college in the fraternity. When a party was getting boring, or we were to drunk to know better, my friend would yell out my last name and say "Geiger lets rock!!!"....and we would proceed to do something big and funny, and usually destructive, to make the party livlier (sp).

After awhile our tolerance got higher (alot we usually were buying a 1/5 of Everclear just to get a buzz) and my buddy would be more intoxicated, so the words would all be slurred together to where it sounded like "G...Rock", and the guys in the frat started to call me that.

Or you could believe the line I tell the ladies....." I am called G-Rock, because I know how to rock the g spot!!"

But it never works!

Gambit1106
05-29-2004, 09:43 AM
Gambit-

1. An opening in chess in which a minor piece, or pieces, usually a pawn, is offered in exchange for a favorable position.
2. A maneuver, stratagem, or ploy, especially one used at an initial stage.
3. A remark intended to open a conversation.

Usage Note: Critics familiar with the nature of chess gambits have sometimes maintained that the word should not be used in an extended sense except to refer to maneuvers that involve a tactical sacrifice or loss for some advantage. But gambit is well established in the general sense of “maneuver” and in the related sense of “a remark intended to open a conversation,” which usually carries no implication of sacrifice.

from an online name dictionary:
"SLADE m
Usage: English
Pronounced: SLAYD
From a surname which meant "valley" in Old English."

*sigh*... so in one dictionary, the closest match to my nickname was something that meant "scum" and in another my nickname meant "valley"...

I guess it just combined random verbs with nouns. I clicked it and this was the FIRST thing it suggested. I have been stuck with it ever since. Friends just shortened it to Mango. It's my name on everything basically in some derivation. :D

Well the S because my first name is Scott.
The other part came from a fox and hounds game we were playing. I was always the fox. Well one day the hounds all stayed in a line. I ran up took out the front two guys. Then ran around to the middle, where there was a small gap, took out the 2 players on my right and the one on my left. I then ran around while they were still confused and took out the rest. After the game one guy said you,"geez you disappear and reappear like a bad dream that keeps coming back.". After that the name stuck. I'm also a huge Alice Cooper fan.
I also go by Icepack. Please don't ask. If you are a guy you won't like the story. Let's just say, it was a dense woods field and I forgot my cup.

Wow great thread, anyway,
My nick came from a gun I used to have (original Micromag/w/smoke revy/warp). I was a real headtuner and I always found it fun to take with me.

My name comes from the fact that I can walk in the sky, sorta like jesus can walk on water. Nah, but seriously, my name is Luke and my friends either call me Lucifer (Satan) or Skywalker.

RingOfScale

the Ring Of Scale is a clan of dragons from the computer game EverQuest ... I actually adopted the name after i quit EQ, just cause i was needing a WarCraft 3 account name, and i remember the good old days of killing monsters in Castle Mistmoore, and it gave me hella good Ring Of Scale faction so the dragons used to love me ( that is, until i put a knife if Gorenair's back )

ohh well, its a cool name... i guess they got it from the fact that its a council of dragons, soo at a meeting they would be in a ring ... and they have scales :) :) :)

Jay's_Folly
06-01-2004, 10:46 PM
ok Jay's_Folly. My name is Jason but some of my friends call me Jay. The " 's " shows possession and folly is defined as:

A lack of good sense, understanding, or foresight or
An act or instance of foolishness or
A costly undertaking having an absurd or ruinous outcome

I figure that pretty much describes paintball. I mean we shoot little balls at each other, at hundreds of miles an hour, that can leave big nasty welts, and we pay for the privilege! And actively look for ways to spend more money and time doing it. Would you want someone who does that to marry your daughter? :eek:

So I figure paintball is my folly, so Jay's_Folly. voila!

DK1
06-02-2004, 03:24 PM
DK1 comes as a derivative of deathknight1, from Might and Magic IV: Clouds of Xeen. It was a game that my brother-in-law, cousin, brother, and I all got wound up in as a kick when we were bored. Deathknights showed up, and we always thought it was funny that everything had various kinds, simply identified with the numerals at the end. So, you'd have bat1's, bat2's, and bat3's all running around.

Deathknights were quite tough, and the deathknight1's were fairly hard to just beat down... so I kinda picked it up and ran with it.

Since then, I realized that the name didn't really fit who I was, since I have no intention of glorifying death or being identified with it. SO, I just started using the abbreviation that I always end with.

So, I'm not from denmark. :)

I just had to throw this in for the HSR crowd out there...
