my username is timmy the ultramorph because I have always wanted to seean ultramorph in a future movie. I really do not know why I have timmy in it. My name is not timmy.

No reason, really, just popped in my head and seemed relevant.

I did/do like how it sounds though.  I only have a few other on line avatars and they are all terrible by comparison! :) 

Good thread DK

Xenotaris

Xeno referencing the Xenomorph

Taris because it sounded cool like a Protoss name.

My little sister helped me get my first email address in 1993. She was so much smarter then i was and is not with us anymore. So i cannot ever get rid of that name. She gave me the name cause i used to be a sponsored snowboarder for allian snowboards and vail snowboard supply company. That and i obviously live in Vail Colorado. I miss her greatly and she loved the Alien films.

Now I know why Geiger made Fox nervous a bit, what a picture, still grossed out, lol. Mine comes from the days of smoking the herbs of the earth and an alternate stoned personality, I think! Only been a hardcore Alien franchise fanatic for about four years but I live it and breathe it. Like it's a calming agent running them for the thousandth cycle. Good times, mostly

Capt Torgo Might that be Targo from Manos?

I've been using my handle for many years now. It's a reference to some rather obscure work by Pink Floyd in their early psychedelic pre-Dark Side of the Moon days.

Loving everyone's answers so far!

Well, when I first joined this forum it was just because I wanted to post my fan fiction "After the Crossing".

David's little taxidermy project made a cameo in my story, so I decided to make my username a reference to that. :)

VivisectedEngineer Is there a Vivian in the mix as well? I always wondered about that name.

MemberContributorAug-04-2017 6:29 PM

@dk

I actually really love that inference! But no, I'm afraid my real name isn't anything close to Vivian. I never made that possible connection until you guys pointed it out!

In fact, when I chose it for posting my story, I was actively trying to avoid picking anything that sounded feminine because I always fear my writing will be judged more harshly if people know that I'm female. 

My dad and husband both thought it was really funny that such a macabre name got morphed into something nice though, lol.

VivisectedEngineer Thanks- it is interesting to hear what goes into user names- even if it is just something random as a couple have stated.

Mines Monster_Zero because I'm a BIG Godzilla fan and 2112 are the numbers from Rush's classic sci-fi album, 2112.  

Ah shit I’m using my wrong eye again. Sorry that was meant to be behind your back

Mine is the suit name for GMK godzilla.

Zwei Wing is the best singing duo. Change my mind.

MemberRespectedDec-10-2019 1:30 PM

Well, mine is just that I'm lazy, and that I like fish. Then put "the". Literally that's it.

If people weren't lazy, we wouldn't try to be efficient. If we weren't efficient, we'd never get anything done.

MemberContributorDec-10-2019 7:32 PM

Mine is just a combination of three of my favorite things: Minecraft, dinosaurs, and Kaiju.

MemberConversationalistDec-27-2019 9:07 PM

At first my name was 21pilot-FlyleafFANKaiju which was really dumb so I changed it. My name was that because I like 21 Pilots, Flyleaf, and kaiju (I for some reason didn't reference Breaking Benjamin though...) but now my name is Flyleaf-Rapt0r because I still like Flyleaf and Velociraptors.

i've officially left. thanks for the memories!
