BIO-AQUA Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 (edited) I wanted to ask you a question from a long time ago, but forgot about it. WHAT DOES YOUR NAME REPRESENT/MEAN? (Meaning, in case it's not your real name/first name, why did you choose it?). I guess I'll start. It was a really random decision when I had to register to TSR, but I really love the name. BIO (as in biology, my favorite subject; and biological, as in completely pure and innocent) and AQUA (as in water, the power of water; and a word that I really love), so it's kind of the best of both worlds . Merge both words together, and it adds up to "Biological Water; a completely pure water which everyone needs to survive..." P.S If you google search my name, you get some company for water treatment and filtering, kind of ironic, isn't it?!

Ruan Chun Xian Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 Meh can't find it at TSR. Anyway, HMSChocolate. I was totally obsessed with HP about a few years ago (2003-2004). I mean obsessed. It wore off after spending too much time on it for my EE. Anyway, in the HP online fandom, there's this phenonmenon known as shipping. Ship = relationship. It basically is supporting 2 characters getting together for a relationship. In the fandom, each ship has a name (or actually, more than one). I shipped Harry/Ginny which had numerous names over the years but my favourite name for it was the Chocolate ship or - HMSChocolate. The name came from the "Chocolate-in-the-library" scene in Order of Phoenix which, before Prince came out, was one of the cutest H/G scenes you can get. So I started using that name for HP forums, and then it stuck with me. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abu Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 So I started using that name for HP forums, and then it stuck with me.Nice, I was wondering what HP meant but then it struck me lol. 1 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afterglow Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 Oh my username was something that took me ages to decide because it's my TSR username. Everything I wanted there was taken and so I wanted a nice word and after a lot of thinking and looking around, I saw my album of Sarah McLachlan - Afterglow and woila, it was mine Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enter Sandman Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 (edited) Haha yes, Harry Potter ships...they used to be a biggie in the forums I went to as well. Some of my crazier internet friends continue to ship Lupin/Sirius, Harry/Malfoy,, James/Snape, Dobby/Gollum - you name it they have it.Turning to something less disturbing, "Enter Sandman" is a song by Metallica, it happens to be one of my favourites. onyl started using it for forums recently - I have generally used screennames with "Jamz" or "J-Man" in the title in the past, since my name is Jay but I thought of changing the tradition for TSR so Enter Sandman came up instead...I use it for msn as well.
