Your KW name

Post by **Cail** » Sat Dec 18, 2004 6:31 am

This may have been brought up before, so I apologize in advance if it has.

Many of us have chosen names from the Chrons. I joined less than a year ago, and my first choice was Cail. Why, because I could be no one else from the chrons. I won't spoil this for anyone who hasn't gotten to the 2nd Chrons, but literally, to know me is to know Cail.

So I'm curious, for everyone else with a TCTC name here, did you choose it because you identified with it, or just because it sounded cool?

It's funny because I chose Ur-Vile because it was the first thing that came into my head, yet the whole 'despising themselves' thing is something that plagues me. I changed it to Loremaster to reflect that I graduated recently with an advanced degree.

I am Queeaqueg or Darkmoon. I will never tell you the purpose of those names. My other name is Naver Htard which (if you have not guessed) is Darth Revan backwards. It is also Darth Revan's alter ego.

Well I think mine is obvious.

I choose this name to oppose Loremaster.

As for "Hierachy", it's an enigma! That or a typo, I'm not sure which.

Hmm, I don't recall reading about me in the chronicles.

I've mentioned this before, but I forget where, so I'll repeat it here. When I joined, there were very few members and only a couple had non-TC names. Since it was my first message board, I assumed that was just the way these things were done, and chose a TC-themed name. I chose Roger Covenant because I thought he'd be a young man by now (though he'd actually be older than me, but whatever) but calling myself Roger Covenant would have been lame, and just Roger might lead people to think it's my real name. So I went with this slightly whimsical version.

Because I definitely identify with the character!

I'm unimaginative, so I grabbed an obscure character name from LFB.

I thought dromond was exclusive to Giants then found that it really is an English word for ship (circa 1600)

I wanted something that was associated with Giants but a little wider than a specific character's name.

The Leper Fairy came from a spurt of randomness while confusing my friend's brother on MSN 3 years ago. Then leper fairies apparently went *poink* a lot. I haven't *poink*ed in a long time though. Please don't take that the wrong way!

My first Name was ... my name. And then after a while, seeing the creativity at the Watch I thought: "what a boring choice I made!"

And since I'm fond of things cosmic I thought, why not be the "Creator"... and voila!!

Nathan is the name of a furniture company.

All fairies need a good *poink* from time to time.

Mine was easy. Covenant and I share the same initials (except maybe the middle one) and first name. TOMC seemed accurate in both terms and with a little tweak I ended up with aTOMiC.

My name has nothing and everything to do with the book. Actually, I thought it up when starting the online personals, because is defines who I am. I am a soul on a quest. I am steadly working toward my destination.

I haven't *poinked* in... oh, lord, so long I can't remember.

Post by **Usivius** » Mon Dec 20, 2004 8:50 pm

mine is just an alter-ego I use for any disembodied communication. It was a name I was 'jokingly' baptized under by a priest with a sense of humour (and a good friend of the family).

Mine's the handle I use pretty much everywhere online. If you see another Alynna somewhere (particularly fanfic sites) it's most likely me - I have yet to run across another Alynna.

I chose Sheol becose people are always telling me that I am very malevolent and it seemed to fit. I guess if you knew me it would be less more understandable.

I wanted the name Mhoram, after my favourite character, but Lord Mhoram already had it, so I just looked for another way to say the same thing.

PS - There is a thread in The Summonsing called "your name here" that is just like this, so lots of others may already have posted there.

Sum sui generis

I "poink" often.

However, I believe Ur-Vile was my first choice, followed by Lord Foul, but then I remembered the least remembered character in all the books. Baradakas had a powerful impact on me, partly due to the test of truth and partly because his name is so much like mine....
