What does your nickname or alias mean to you and why did you choose it?

Question

I'll start. Mine is Self because it embodies everything that I am and is the representation of my belief in individuality. Self means as defined by webster's dictionary as the entire person of an individual, the realization or embodiment of an abstraction. the union of elements (as body, emotions, thoughts, and sensations) that constitute the individuality and identity of a person. The essential qualities and distingushing characteristics thatt sets a person, thing or being apart from all others. In other words, the individual. What about yours??

Answer 1

Mine is pretty straightforward.  In the real world, I am shy and find that I don't say what I feel or think because I fear I may hurt someone's feelings or offend them.  Online (hiding behind my monitor) I feel I can be open and as "lippy" as I feel the need to be.

Answer 2

Mine is chiquitarosita because it means small rose in Spanish and that pretty much describes me.  Rosita can also mean pink, so I am a small, pink, Mexican rose.

This sounded better when I made it up.

Answer 3

Bohemian_Garnet

Bohemian, for my unconvential lifestyle, my creative/crafting side, and my general personality.  My sometimes colorful dress, and way of capturing people when I tell stories around a firepit reminds people of a gypsy, who were once thought to originate from Bohemia.

Garnet...my birthstone, and the color of my hair.

Answer 4

Mine is Cupid2000 because I have always been a hopeless romantic and love hearing people's love stories and playing match-maker. By the year 2000 I had a total of 16/20 successful matches but it is a lot more now. It is a fun hobby and the nickname has stuck even though I am not a Roman God but rather a Italian Goddess. ; )

According to Wikipedia: In Roman mythology, Cupid (Latin cupido) or Eros is the god of erotic love. He is equated with the Greek god Eros, and another one of his Latin names Amor (cognate with Kama). In popular culture Cupid is frequently shown shooting his bow to inspire romantic love, often as an icon of Valentine's Day.

Answer 5

Permaculture - lifestyle and to promote it

Belladonna Deadlynightshade - Plant - connected to it for many reasons but 'stems' form love of herbalism.

Answer 6

Mine is "Mariposa". It means "butterfly" in Spanish. I chose it because I think the simple joys of life, such as watching the flight of a butterfly, are the most satisfying ones.

Answer 7

My nick was given to me by a female patient whom I cured, she was going through acute depression and was suicidal. I prescribed her with the Homeopathic Remedy AURUM MET (The Metal Gold) in Homeopathic potency, and the rest is history :o) She got cured so fast it was amazing I wonder how people call Homeopathy Placebo, nothing cures faster or is more safer to take. So I kind of liked the nick and kept it. :o)

So if you see anyone feeling suicidal with the feeling of worthlessness, never forget this gem of a remedy and it never fails. Trust me it never does.

Take Care and God Bless you.

Answer 8

to me it means

i luv music and rhyme

and if i eat beans

i f*rt all the time

oops

Answer 9

Mine is commonsensemom, because common sense is something I have relied on for as long as I can remember, and I am a mom of 3 grown children.  

I'm trying to bring back the use of common sense, because it has become a lost art.  It's simply applying logic, intuition, and thinking before you act.  Not so hard, but there are lots of people out there who have never learned to utilize it, and it is so neccessary for our survival.  I aim to change that mentality, some how, some way.

Answer 10

I had three nick names in the past.

Lord Bird - Was my english teacher, his name was Mr. Bird, a very wierd teacher. I just put Lord, because one student in my class that time had so much respect for him, that he called him Lord Bird, which i thought was funny.

BMW M5 - My current nickname, one of the best cars in the world.

Shawarma - Might be my future nickname, this food is awesome.

Answer 11

Because it is what I am.

Answer 12

I am a Radical and a rather far out there. So far out that I do not fall on the line most people draw from left to right. I think that from my point of view the left and the right ends of the political spectrum have backed so far from each other they are basically standing back to back. There is not a dimes worth of difference from where I stand so it makes me want to scream.  Therefore screaming radical.

Answer 13
