Where does your nickname come from?

Err0r · 11-01-2007

Mine was created ~6 years ago. I was registering for a social networking site when it said something like, "Error! The nickname you picked is already in use." I then try to use "Error" as a nickname, but it turns out that it was also in use. Finally, I switched the o for a 0 and it worked.

I think it was when i was about 14/15 years old, just randomly picked a name for myself on msn and went with it.

Some years ago I sold advertising for a few local publications and was called the "adman". After a big night at a New Years Eve bash I ended up with a shaved head and no eyebrowse and from then on it mutated to "madman".

Well, MFB sounds mysterious and all :P. That they're also my initials is just plain coincidence.
OK, my brother had a very small company using his initials at the time, which I found very cool. (I was 10 when I chose my nick) I also have a second nick for those irritating sites that require a username to be longer than 3 characters: chikazuku. I got that by just looking in a Dutch - Japanese dictionary and picking a random word.

My name is a bit unoriginal, it comes from my last name xD. I have a better nick for games : Mosselman (this is dutch). The last name is because i live in a mossel village.
