Story behind your username

[Sharky]

I've named myself Sharky after the character of animated series "Eek the cat" - a vicious and pathologically agressive little doggy, which looks like a shark with tiny extremities attached to it's body. Can't say I identify myself with this creature, but I like the character, it kicks ass and is very funny indeed.
And what about you? Why have you named yourselves the way you did? Do you use other usernames on other forums?

[dallow_bg]

Aw, I remember that show!

Mine is dull, it's just "Dallow" from that Morrissey song, which is from that book.
And 'bg' are my initials.

[Sir Alec]

I like to make myself feel special even though I'm not. :(











Its also my porn name

[andy_fozzy]

I'm not going to bother, as it's quite obvious.........

[Sparks fan]

Rather boring really,I responded to a Sparks thread on the old board and called myself Sparks fan and the name just stuck for some reason.

I like so many bands and artists I could be any name really and as for the Mod in my profile it should be ex mod by rights as I havent been one since the 70`s,but it sounds good...I like the ambiguity too, although it would be nice to actually have the power to edit and delete all the posts I disagree with and especially from the posters I dislike...real forum mods dont do that though do they?

[Mada]

It's my name spelt backwards.

[WhyteGrrrl]

It's my name spelt backwards.

Whenever I see your username, I cant help but think, "Bona to Mada..." is that wrong.

I assume people can figure out my username...:p

[wolve]

Lots of people call their child "Wolf" or "Wolve" here, it's some sort of rage nowadays...I like the name.

[Aly Panic]

Aly - short for Alistair

Panic - My Smiths Night

My real surname is Smith!

[mjp]

I'm not going to bother, as it's quite obvious.........

No please, do tell us Andy!:D

Mine is my initials (although it could also be said that it stands for "Moderating Juvenile People" :p ).

[jossu]

My username is my nickname.

[Mad Vespa]

My initial are MAD (my parents were blind to that one) and I drive a Vespa. :)

[Jon]

It was one of the most neutral, anonymous name I could think of, You have to be clinically insane to use your real name here with some of the beasts that lurk around these parts; just waiting for that moment to "google you" to obtain your personal data, raping you of your self respect, dignity and pride, leaving you sobbing in a pool of tears.

[Uncleskinny]

I used to be very thin until I discovered women and beer, and people used to call me Skinny. The Uncle bit came when I started playing guitar and singing - a bit like the Grumbleweeds character Uncle Disgusting, I tagged the Uncle bit on the front, so there it was, Uncleskinny. Oddly enough there's a clip on Youtube of some fake old TV advice thing fronted by a chap named "Uncle Skinny".

Peter

[mjp]

Jon/Peter - well firstly - I love the irony of the fact you two posted on this thread immediatley after/before each other!:D and then to Peter directly, that's a very cunning way of covering your ass when people go looking for that video ;) .

This is a good thread, lets hope to see a few more "reveals".

[andy_fozzy]

No please, do tell us Andy!:D

lol!
Nice one :D

My name isn't really Andy.

It's Theodopulus D Wildebeast.

[andy_fozzy]

1 more post and I'm on 300.

YAY!

Ooops, I didn't want to waste it really.....

[Joe Dolan]

There was a bit of an ongoing joke in my crowd about going to see Joe instead of Moz, or Joe supporting Moz etc. - I guess you had to be there. So I chose this name and it stuck.

:):)

Are you sure that's not Carole Smiley in that pic????

[celibate cries]

It's taken from The Smiths song 'These Things Take Time' as if no-one didn't already know that:rolleyes:
and of course it is not the opposite of my life.

Peter

Women made you fat? Do you eat them or something? - please don't answer that btw.

To the guy who mentioned about covering tracks etc, I do not know what you could possibly mean. ;)

[BoyRacer]

i couldnt think of anything original, therefore I posted using many forms of BoyRacer, Boy Racer, BR, boyracer, boy racer, Boyracer, The real BoyRacer, etc... both on this board and the old one.

[Wild Oscar]

Although it's fairly obvious, there is another element/twist.

i am a fan/admirer of Oscar Wilde, as, of course, is Moz. so that's straightforward.

My nickname used to be (+ still is to some) Hoss.

Being from northern england, however, the h got dropped a lot, then a couple of friends started extending the name 'Oss to Oscar, then to Oscar Wilde.

Easy, really, wasn't it?

[thewarroom]

Mine is an arcane reference to the film "Dr. Strangelove". As in, "There's no fighting in here! This is The War Room!"

Ha Ha! I can see why you used to get called Hoss! Given your current username it all makes sense!

Peter

[Sphinx]

I was looking for something with a dual purpose, so chose a name from a short story that seemed applicable ;) - and also would give the image that I had the face of a pharoh/goddess combined with the body of a lion/cat!

but then again it could have something to do with being secretive

[starry night]

Hey,
My boring old name is just from my favorite painting by my favorite artist....Plus, I'm into boring old Astrology and I majored in Meteorology. No biggie. I like A LOT of you people's creative names on here. Some of your avatars are hilarious too. :)

[Dupree]

Dupree seems to be the 'internet name' I got stuck with since I was about 12. It's from the Grateful Dead song 'Dupree's Diamond Blues'.

[Mmmmmm]

M was the first key I randomly hit and held for a second. I later added the capital as mmmmmm seemed to be without much self esteem. I've used O. Vertha Moore but Mmmmmm is so much more ambiguous and versitile.

[Tex]

uhhh, its where I currently reside.......

[Puddle]

i couldn't think think of a name so i was like, "whatever pops into my head first." i looked out the window and it was raining. and then i saw a puddle on the roof of the building next to mine.

so puddle...not the best of names but then again i never intended to stick around for long

[Sister]

Even though I'm perfectly aware of the denotation of your username, I just can't help thinking about poodle every time I see it! Probably has something to do with the Russian connotations and subconsciously reading "u" as [u:].

[Dupree]

I have to say though, I tend to recognise people's posts by their avatar before I see the name. So when you guys change your pictures, I'm like 'who's that?' and I have to go back and check.

Maybe it's the way my brain works.

[wolve]

hey dupree, what's the story again behind your 'signature'? or did you tell this already?

[++++++]

Not much of a story here. When I first started visiting the old Moz-Solo boards, it was really just to download all of the goodies that people would post. I felt the need to thank people who'd post bootlegs and rarities, and I figured it would be a bit more meaningful with a username (but at the time I wasn't all that interested in being a part of the community) so I just typed in some pluses. Didn't really give it any thought. When the board switched to VBulletin I thought about changing my username to kryptondog, which is what I use everywhere else, but I kind of liked the ++++++, so it stuck.

[Godlovesugly]

Godlovesugly is the name of an album by a hip-hop (indie rap) group called atmosphere....they're good :)

Plus i'm ugly :rolleyes:

[Pervomartovtsi]

I just wanted a name that would annoy people when they read it...

well no I'm not that evil...it's about that regicide russian group that murdered tzar Alexander II...but far from that it's because it means "the ones that do(something) on the 1st of march"...I was born a 1st of march, and I've done a lot of things 1sts of marchs...(hehehe)


...before I nicknamed me...britva(razor,as the weapon Alex used in ACO book),Pilucho(naked, as the mom of a friend refered to me),Jack Napier( as the Joker's name before he fall into acid ).........

[JeanneDarc]

Well, it's reference to bigmouth and hopefully a slight reference to my own personality....:confused: Like that'll ever happen.

But I can always hope can't I! ;)

[prisoner77]

my name was chosen because I am a prisoner trapped in my self loathing, 77 is the year I became a veggie.

[Dupree]

[marrymemorrissey]

My name is marrymemorrissey because I want morrissey to marry me.

[mjp]

My name is marrymemorrissey because I want morrissey to marry me.

Phew, glad you cleared that one up :D

[JeanneDarc]

MJP: Lost for words by your avi. ;)

I love that movie. Scarlett & Bill. And nothing happens. But in my fantasy something did. :)

[speedfreaks ball]

the "pick of the penny tray" for the 1st person to work mine out.

[JeanneDarc]

The movie might not be the whole nine yards in terms of love & amour but it captures reality. It's about 2 discontent people finding companionship in each other miles away from home. They are lost not only culturally but their lives too. They get a pact, and maybe more but for the sake of marriage and age difference there's no time for blunt romance in this picture. Which I think makes it more beautiful. You can all put your own fantasy in it. Because it's closer to reality. Oh yes: the last whispering makes your intrepetation run wild, doesn't it. Mine at least...

[drunken goldfish]

Lots of new people (such as myself ;)) have come on since this thread started, so I thought we'd get it going again!
My bf used to call me "fishy", so I usually use "fish" with some sort of adjective before it. I was looking for a funny adjective this time and then I remembered there was a poster with a screen name I really liked from another board - drunken fairy (isn't it the coolest?). So I stole half of it :) .

[lilybett]

...it's my name :D

Well. One of the hundreds of versions of 'Elizabeth' I get.

[drunken goldfish]

I love that nickname, I think it's so cute whenever I see it :) .

[Oh my god, it's Robby!]

in chat some idiot or idiots would post 'something like this username' when they became aware i was 'in there'
&
ive heard people say it 'in the real world' too
which i like

^^Thanks :) . One of my favorite books as a kid was a Swedish book with a girl called Lisabet, I rather like that version too. Off topic: I hate my real name, first and last. At least the last will be changed sometime :) .

[DeliciousDemon]

My nick is taken from a Sugarcubes song I really like although the more I use it the more people mistake me for someone who's looking for partners on-line ... well, I'm not.

that's what they all say...

[Chartres]

Mine is simply a french gothic Cathedral:D

And Swedehead is what we can call a swedefication of "Suedehead". It was what I thought the song was called when I first heard about it and Moz has used it live aswell.

[Wally the Baboon]

My name is Wally. I am a Baboon.

I have the biggest bestest brightest bum of anyone on this forum and everybody knows it, especially Mr. Proper.

[Busy Clippers]

In "Who Put The M In Manchester," during Hairdresser on Fire, he changes the lyrics to, "too busy to kiss me, busy clippers," well, how can you not find that utterly charming? And I am busy. :D

[Disappointed]

When I first registered here, I wanted to have a Morrissey-related username, as I noticed that many of the others posters here did. After a bit of careful deliberation, I chose "Disappointed", because it was catchy, immediately recognizable, and describes me fairly well.

[no one in particular]

so how often do you actually get drunk then?

[Dave]

it's a "friendly" version of my first name

[Bluebirds]

Mine was in honour of the local football team and was a deliberate antagonism on having seen Morrissey in our local "rivals" town. Sorry city. PRETTY SH**** CITY. The name, as seems quite common, has stuck. anything else I use Glovidge. Or freeyourself. Or AndreaIson. Or broken. :)

[Nikita]

Nikita happens to be my name

[Kewpie]

My mother once said that when I was born one of the nurses said to her, "she looks like a Kewpie doll".
It's the first compliment I got.

[Lor]

I think I may have nicked it off someone else somewhere. I think maybe the Pirates of the Caribbean board at IMdB. Genius steals... :D

[drunken goldfish]

I wrote a reply but I see it never got posted! Weird. To paraphrase, I'm not that much of a drinker, I only enjoy the image ;) . Also, I know where your name is from, but I have to say it's a little confusing - there have been times when it took me a while before I realized someone was talking about you rather than about "no one" :) .

well, at some point you need to get drunk and post on moz-solo...or if not all the way drunk, at least a little lit. it is a whole different experience!

So are you speaking from experience? :D I remember Sir Alec got drunk one time and started discussing his measurements :eek: .

[CeciDeMorrissey]

Ha! This is a good question! Mine is easy: My name is Cecilia and here in Chile when a woman gets married to a man, she doesn't change her maiden name, but she adds her husband's name by the word "DE" that means "of", stating clearly that from that moment on she belongs to that man. So, i.E. with simple names: Maria García De Gonzalez (her maiden name is García, but since she's married to Mr González, she states through her name that she "belongs" to her husband by using his last name after "de")...

Soooooo... If I made it clear to you: I married Morrissey and I became Cecilia de Morrissey, or shorter Ceci De Morrissey... Hahahaha.. In my dreams...

[Kewpie]

What's a Kewpie doll?

I'm surprised that you haven't heard/seen one.

Nope. The picture doesn't look familiar either. You learn something new every day :) .

[Practising Troublemaker]

Mine was weird, obviously I knew it was taken from Nobdoy Loves Us and tis aslo the title of a Morrissey bootleg, but on the day I signed up to this forum my English teacher called me a Practising Troublemaker for writing Morrissey on a school desk with a compass.:D

[hatfull]

Well, I wanted something Morrissey related, and I just fancied adding an extra L, I don't really know why.

[virtually dead]

Um... I tried everything else....?

[nightandday]

My username comes from my favourite TV series, the very underrated and little known, but very original, weird and wonderful British series (2001-2003) "Night & Day". :)

It is my given name.


Always found it entertaining that my first name is Denia and my surname starts with and L... Denia L. ... "denial"

[corpse_bride]

Finding usernames and titles is so difficult for me... Anyway! It's from Tim Burton's movie (The Corpse Bride)... Great director by the way!

[mar2d2]

my name is martina, and people used to call me marchu (?) and then when i was 14 and i started tagging (??) i was searching for a nickname with strength and personality (???)
i instantly thougth: marchu = mar-two = mar2
and then mar2 just seem too plain
and so i thought mar2d2

anyway this was many internet years ago, and now i got used to it

[Oh my god, it's Robby!]

ok, ill go 1st :p
see

there was this notorious troll to the chat room

whenever he realized i was in there
he would type
oh my god, its Robby!
later
morrithey died
i think bg killed him?
so
it all worked out
but i kept the username and brought it here :D


please if you post to this thread make your story better than mine

and here is the deal on her teeth
'the guy' singing the song can not get 'a perfect girl'
so he wants her to keep the f*cked up teeth

It's about his pen-pal from before he became famous...I think somebody had the letter they wrote in one of the threads here. Supposedly he sent her a picture of himself and she ended up like trading it for a picture of Scott Baio or somebody like that...at least that is what it said in the thread...you might want to search for it...it was a good read.

I saw a documentary on the beegees on tv years ago (1973) & the producer (associate) was none other than a Mr Grim O'Grady, he's retired now but he did climb to fame on many shows for Granada tv, bless him, he lives in Cheshire now with his papilion dogs (4), so I thought what a great name, I looked him up in the phone book but he must be ex-directory or summat, so I took it without his consent.

Supposedly he sent her a picture of himself and she ended up like trading it for a picture of Scott Baio or somebody like that...at least that is what it said in the thread...you might want to search for it...it was a good read.
You're almost right, Morrissey's former pen pal who traded his pic was actually from Norway, as far as I remember. And this is the pic she supposedly traded with a Smiths fan:

But he could have another one from Luxemburg, or not - I think it's more likely that he just put Luxemburg in the song because it fit in better ("writing frightening verse to a buck-toothed girl from Norway"... hmmm).

I think that the line refers to someone who sits at home all the time and mostly communicates with pen pals far away, people that he hasn't seen, and will probably never see. The pen-pal might have crooked teeth, or not - he might just be referring to the fact that he doesn't know what she looks like; or maybe he does, but it doesn't matter as their relationship will never go beyond writing letters. It's easier for him to communicate with someone far away, than with someone who might be right there, because it's so much more difficult for him (and maybe for the other person, too) to get the courage to speak to someone in person, ask them out etc.

Oh come on, who does that?

[nightandday]

great line
when i was young that line meant alot to me
it was a mantra in my head
that drove me to 'do' and sometimes ask
but now i am old and ready to die
or
maybe
i am just stuffed with too much chips and stuff?
:confused:
but even in the final hour of your life you're falling in love again, and again, and again...? :)

[nightandday]

Oh come on, who does that?
I was going to say that nowadays it would be about typing verses to a buck-toothed girl from Luxemburg you've met online, but that's obvious anyway. Nobody writes actual letters now.

[Oh my god, it's Robby!]

but even in the final hour of your life you're falling in love again, and again, and again...? :)

[Zenith Nadir]

Everyone always laughs at me when I tell them my name is Armitage Shanks. So I'm in the process of changing it to Zenith Nadir.

sorry to giggle but Zen that's ace.

Mine was taken from the 1st person to climb Everest in 1934 but it was never reported because he was so shy he didn't want to make a fuss.

[Morrissey the 23rd]

I used to use my name Hugh in the chat. This became a constant subject of disscussion in the chat and people would continually suggest names I could use. One night when this was especialy bad, there were many people in the chat pretending to be Morrissey. Something that was almost daily then. I left and returned under this name posting, don't you find it absurd? It stuck.

I think I named it after some album...I'm not quite sure... :|

[girlunafraid]

I seem to recall your name back in the early 80's so wasn't it th'other way around Viv? That Moz is a plague on our trousers! Warrisit Talent burrows Genius squeals? Them was Jolly Rotten days, remember I was known as Bona Fag prior to my present incantation, I'm fairly sure that he nabbed that an all, glad I stopped smokin when I did is all I can say.

[Kuiper]

One day on another forum I tried out four different usernames all of which I have forgotten. Each one of them was taken, and so I was stumped. I am a lover of astronomy, and I had just heard the news that Planet X was discovered in the Kuiper Belt or something. Didn't know much about it, but I had just vaguely heard it about it for the first time. I liked the sound of name Kuiper and chose it. Fascinating, huh? :p

[girlunafraid]

mine is from the latino romantic era roughly translated it equates to "Gradual Grandiose Goosekeeper" but it originates from the Norse legend of 'Grumbleweed the Greek', but that story is so frightening that I'd have to wait 'til after the watershed to retell it here!

My favorite of these so far is how you named yourself after the first man to climb Mount Everest, who was too shy to tell about it. But will we ever know the real story?

[girlunafraid]

DG shuuuush!

P.s. which came about one night playing with a ouija board, it actually spelt out 'Grim O'Grady' so I changed it by deed poll.

[mauve21]

I was so dumb that when I first came here, about eight years
ago I used my first name:- Maree, as a username, hence
when it says how many posts I've done that's just for
mauve21.
What irks me is that when it says how many posts I've
done it should actually be a lot more.
But I know I'm not the only one in here who has changed names.
And other things besides......

[Amanda]

My imagination is really bad when it comes to usernames so i used my name, how fun...not.

I have six different children by six absent fathers, I dwell in a council house and i have no job.......but i can change my name... So it seemed fitting, don't ya think? :D

come on, you're joking!!

[girlunafraid]

I was holidaying (that's vacationing to the non Ukers) in Ireland back in the fall (that's autumn for the Ukers) of '73 & some gibbering eejit came up to me & said lot's of words but all I could make out was "...Grim O'Grady..." then he preceeded to knock the english (that's a 1/4 of the UK for those interested in geography) crap out of me & take my belongings & trousers (levi 501's - them's denim jeans to the USers), it was a holiday I couldn't wait to forget I can tell you. So that's how I got it.

[durutti]

ok, i ll tell you the truth about grim's name....

It was the late 80's, he was holidaying in Greece (on Crete island to be exact). I was studying English while working (summer job) at Daddy's, a greek coffeeshop my uncle owns. He was with a red haired lady (slum mum i assume). He ordered two capuccino with cream. (Back then we only served greek traditional coffee, no idea what capuccino and cream was) My english was lame, so with great awe in my eyes and genuine suprise i repeated to him the only word i caught ... grrrrrim? sir? griiiiiim?

you can guess the rest of the story.

(sorry grim, but i was jealous of your wonderful stories and wanted to create sth of my own. I know it was a lame effort. My uncle and I are waiting for you this summer as always;) )

yes that's true about the 'grim' bit but I remember that when you brought our coffee over you tapped slummy on the shoulder & said "here ya go old lady" & slummy said did she just call me "old Lady?" & I said er no I think she said "o'grady" & that's how it all came to be.
