Where'd you get your name? I don't mean your real one, but the one you're wearing online. Mine's me...in fic and RPG. "Cy-Raxx" came from a game me and my cousins had ages and ages ago, like a LARP kinda, I was named "Syraxx". When I started the SW fic I "Jedi-ified" it, I probably was thinking of Obi-wan cause I had first watched AotC, and thus it appeared. When I first came on here I was called shieldzup....just thought that was cool.  |

I got my name from Dune, a really really really really really really really good Sci-Fi book by Frank Herbert. Muad'Dib is the main character, and if you haven't read the book, you should. Or you could see the movie, which was different then that book, but still good.

Mine was simple: I like The Matrix, looked on here and saw that Trinity wasn't already taken, and picked it! She is my favorite Matrix character, too, so it was cool...

I got mine from the Barrow-Downs name generator. It started out as 'Duncairiel', but when I typed it in on the BDs as my user name, I skipped one of the 'i's. So, Duncariel I've been ever since. Cuenbrethil means "Birchbow" in Sindarin, and I thought it was pretty, and I was looking for a second half to my name, and it fit.

My name...do I need to explain? I like chocolate and some coffee drinks, although I don't get too hyper on them, usually.

I got my name from countless spoofs that Jandalf and I have had the pleasure of writing. I got my location from a LotR book. It's somewhere in Mordor.

Heh... Eowyn Skywalker came from the following: I dressed up as Eowyn at my b-day party when I turned 14. 13. Or something. Skywalker came from the fact that I needed a last name, Darth Eowyn sounded weird, and I was elf with a lightsaber on fanfic.net, so I needed someone with a lightsaber. I was a Lukie fan, so thus I became Eowyn Skywalker when elf with a lightsaber wouldn't fit on Barrowdowns when I was registering there... And it carried on for a long while. THEN. Tiana came into existance in a very poorly done SW fanfic on ff.net called Teleporter. Do not read it, it SUX BEYOND BELIEF. But anyway. The name Tiana was found in a name book, I remembered it vaugely when writting the story, and thus I used it. Elass was made up, and I don't know why I made it up or how. When Jandalf and I started writting Paint Wars, I couldn't use Eowyn, so somehow I remembered that I was Tiana at one time, so thus I became Tiana. Permanently. It also has the same letters as my real name, so it was an obvious choice. *shrugs* Then Calthye was a spur of the moment made up name. Means Watcher in Ekaeli (fic junk, Jandalf knows what I mean), and is technically Tiana's title. Eless in elvish meant renewed. *Shrugs again* But I figured that out after I came up with the names... |

I got my name from a name generator that we were looking for when we were really into LotR in this house... it's all my fault... I found the Barrow-downs name generator and Eowyn found fanfiction.net......

Name generators are interesting, but if you're going Elvish i prefer making my own names out of this Tolkein language dictionary. Then I know what they mean.

Snagged my name from a poem in LotR. "From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring" and Pippin's song. And a dictionary that we were randomly flipping through.

I chose my name because I love rain and storms. Ishtar is the (insert country here, I forget) goddess of rain, storms and war... not that I really believe that stuff, but it's a cool name. (at least, I think so) |
