This might be a random question, but it is one I have allways wondered.
How did you think up your name?
Was it just a random thought? Did you see another with the name. Could it have been given to you and stayed!? I have NO idea!
You see... I am.. -Really- bad at making up names, I dont know why, but I just cant. It is, something in my personal moral values that will not allow me.
So if everyone would tell how their name came to be, I would be very thankfull.

SARGENT SPOON!
See- That is a random thought, but it does not make it a great name. (BUT IT COULD BE?)
You dont know that I KNOW I WANT TO SING!!!
That! Is something I have noticed, when ever I am very very hyper I begin to sing in a tone as I talk! Very, rapidly!
Sarafina, your CRAZY idea of thinking up names is beasicly crazy, COULD IT BE SO crazy that it accualy worked? For you do have a good name...
But your methos, Picking a name that sounds good? IT is extreamly reveloutionary!
Is there a way to pick and choose a name without accualy picking and choosing a name? As you two have done?

Ginny is an ugly name, I know. I picked it for a couple of reasons-partly because I'm minorly obsessed with the Harry Potter series, and Ginny Weasley is actually very similar to me. The other, more prominent reason is because there was a horse at my barn named Gin Time, and she was oddly identical to me. Everyone laughed cause she would always whinny and stuff RIGHT as I started speaking, and we tripped constantly in the same spots, and the one ((and only)) time I ever rode her, we matched each other perfectly. I love my Tilly, but Gin and I were really a great match. Unfortunately, she's gone now...*sobs* I miss her. But whatever. Cathy never would've let me ride her more than the one time, anyway. ><
Soooo...yeah. I actually rather like my birth name. I've told a few furs that I feel close to, and they all say I should just drop Ginny and use my real name all the time...but nah...too paranoid of stalkers ^^;

I just took some letters out of my username for most places, TheColdOne. I just removed the h, l, d, and e. I just thought it sounded, like a name, so I used it.

Ginny is not a bad name, you shouldent think that it is. It is a name that I can remember, and I only can recall names and things that have meaning. Just to say, whenever I hear the name Ginny I think Ginger, weird like that.

Tecoon, I can remember your name due to the word tycoon. (Also Monsoon, harpoon. and typhoon) Your name is differnt to me, I never seen a name like that- and that is why I your name! Good method too, just take out letters? hmmm.. How did I end up with Medrico?! Distruzio Venicci.

Mythosloki. Never seen that before...
But I have seen Mytho, and I have seen Loki - (Many times, I once had a friend who's name wa...) Good combo!
What Questions me is that how can you name be Camio if it is Mythosloki?

Seems to me that everyone's name has some sort of meaning to them. Created in their own way to be who they are! You, and you, and you and you and you! You are you! The name, it is you in a way.
That is why I am parionoid about a name! It.. Means too much for me. To pick falsly could mean great disfourtion behalf of myself! Why cant I do this, find a name that has a meaning? I just cant...

-Ginny, good point about not posting your name. It could get lost in this crowd of users, who knows what sick fool could be waiting to stalk you down at the slightest mention of your name!! Now, you did not hear this from me, but I got some suspision on that Guest over there...

The Man on the Moon is watching you. With his friend, the sand man. Dont even get me started with the tooth fairy and the Easter Bunny...

Little Bunny Foo-Foo, hopping through the forest. Picking up the field mice, and bopping them on the head.
Little Bunny Foo-Foo, I dont want to see you. Picking up the field mice, and bopping them on the head.
?How could he?

I dont want to see YOU, Ginny, huting any field mice. Trust me, we will know if you part take in the action of bopping ANY field mice, just warning you.

What was I thinking while typing this post? It is a guessing game!

I don't 'boop' field mice. I pounce, kill, and eat them. Violently. Very Happy
Lol.
Yeah.
I do like pet mice, though. I used to have a pair of gerbils. They were Nazi gerbils. One of them apparently mistook me once, though, and bit me. I was very upset. I didn't hurt him, though. They lived for like five years, which is like a hundred in gerbil years, and then they died. I cried.

...and now I'm done being depressing.

HOW DO YOU EXPECT ME TO RESPOND TO THIS?!?! o.O You eat field mice? Why the mice! Shure, eating bunnies or foxes I could understand, but Field Mice!? >( I stand with my kin, with the brothers of the dead mice you so Violently Slaughtered.
But we all must live, one way or another. I can not hold a grudge on the natural order of life, no one can. I am glad your Gerbils lived so long, as I am glad you did not hurt them. This was a hard topic for me to respond to. If you posted just the top or just the bottem I would of had a much more easy time, but the combo took me off guard.
How can you depress yourself in such a way? Would you be happier if they died at 2 or 3 years old? Strange things I think of now, it is weird.

Pillipe, I am wondering how to pronounce you r name. At first I thought it was flippy, but that does not seem right. Could it be it Fill-ipe? I am sorry, but I dont know much, or any, Greek/Latin..

Did Rudolph know Santa the Panda?! I think a panda would be the best Santa!
..Your gerbils, even if I may have not known them at all, I feel sad that they are gone. It is hard for me to explain to you with text alone, but it is true.
n.n Yay Peace pacts!

Rudolph and Zoey A? I know where Zoey came from.

My name. I gave it some thought. G-Fox it is short for his full name Glen Fox Hawkins. Glen for like a wooded glen. I wonted the name to sound sort of like a new speeches of fox. A Glenfox. Hawkins I just liked that for a last name it to me represents free in flight. You know the hole hawk thing. Hawks are cool. LOL

What Questions me is that how can you name be Camio if it is Mythosloki?


Well... MythosLoki primarily came from Mythology + Loki - Loki being the mythical Norse god soo.... I started using it for Yiffstar when I started writing and stuff... things that weren't so well graphic... but it isn't my name... Camio is my name which I stole from a book about a fox named Camio :3 apparently it is also the name of some general in hell or something...

Loki is the trickster norse god! But your name is Camio? Why dident you just used the name Camio then!?

Fox Hawkins.. Yes hawks are cool, but that dosent mean you add it to your name! (But I do think Glen Fox Hawkins is a great name!) Ninjas and pirates are cool, why dident you add them to your name?

Rudolph and Zoey! Did one of your gerbils have a glowing red nose? Or just any color of a glowing nose? That would be strange during the night.

Making up RP names? oh thats easy for me some days... I have an overly creative mind so its hardly difficult to slap something random together and glue it together as a name, personality, body type, job... mostly I jsut watch the people around me and develope chars to keep track of them all... and to kill off some time since I have plenty to spare.
