I thought the Latin word for silver was a cool word, so I took it as my username here.

Mine is a shortening of the same username I've used since I first got online, which was basically a random name I thought sounded funny.

My actual name is Cameron. What I did was made it backwards "noremac" then took out the "E" and replaced the "A" with an "I" and got "Normic" then I just put my favourite number into it "67" being because I like Canada`s 1867-1967 coins. So them I'm left with Normic67.

On my name:
Gran - is for my grandfather who's collection is where I started.
Cap - is for the Capped Bust halve dollars which were in the collection he left for me. I had never seen these style coins before and became facinated with them. I think I'll create a new avatar, since I've been meaning to do that for the last year....

Well, I've used some variety of "January First-of-May" since spring 2007 or so (though originally in Russian).
As it happens, January is the month I was born in, and the First of May is a street about half a block from my current apartment (this made a little more sense in original Russian); together they made a name just funny (and punny) enough to fit right in at the website it was originally made up for (Absurdopedia, the Russian version of Uncyclopedia).
I, of course, had to dumb it down a little to fit in CCF's forum name standards; this was reasonably easy though (especially since I already did the exact same thing for the Gmail account).

My cousin back in 2006 was 18 was going out to the beach to watch the sunrise he dropped a cd in his truck his knee hit the wheel spinning him out of control he flipped over the median and a semi hit him head on killing him. He was a surfer and in a band and all around great guy and created the word voshus with some friends that means something epic it's the feeling that after doing something so hard it's that feeling of awesomeness. Which its crazy because he had that accident in 2008 and I had almost the exact same accident 8/13/12 I had rolled my 1961 all original vw bus the day before school started, rolled it 4 times over the median on a busy road and on the second roll was thrown from the vehicle (no seatbelts back in 1961) and it continued to roll over me and I ended up in the on coming lane luckily no traffic at that moment. So I can really connect with him and with voshus, then the 007 comes from James... James Bond just because he's epic.

When my son started talking he would call my father bumma instead of grampie or papa etc. Don't know why. He doesn't even know why.
I told him when he has kids they can call me bumma. He has (3) and they do!

Uh... mine's pretty dumb.
It's from a terrible pen-and-paper RPG (like Dungeons and Dragons) called Synnibarr. I never actually played it, but I did read about it. It was incredibly over-the-top, with the rules allowing characters to fling other characters into space and items that increased statistics by exponents rather than increments. "Venederant Nalaberong" was some sort of ultimate force that could do anything. The game gained a fairly large following of ironic fans, and I thought that it was a ridiculous name, perfect for the Internet. Unfortunately, I'd go crazy typing the whole thing every time, so I shortened it (and there are already a few other people who use the full name on other sites). Ta-da: completely meaningless.

Years ago I used to frequent the religion and spirituality boards on Yahoo! Answers. I wanted a name that sort of reflected my beliefs. Simple, honest, decent was what I was aspiring to be and Tom Goodheart sounded like he could be those things. Then I got lazy and continued to use the name on other forums and the name sort of stuck! Maybe I should be Lazy Coincollector now? |
