h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

if you could change your name, or possibly go back and pick a different h2g2 name for yourself, what would it be?

Mog. An enigma wrapped in a mystery and stuffed with cream cheese.

Actually, I always use the same name everywhere I go, so if you see a Typher or Typherzero anywhere about (especially Typherzero) there's a good chance it's me.

um what about clicking preferences and just typing a new name. I append mine on a regular basis (what's in the brackets that is)

Sometimes I think I could as well be Edward.
But to understand this you should know Moomin-Troll characters.

me ??

...Shackleton...that's a good name, one of my heroes...

then people would know that i am earnest.

alec.

There was a fellow who was known as "Witty Moniker." I always thought that was pretty cool; I'd like to have been known as "Clever Nickname" or "Creative Screen Name."

Wampus

For me, it was a choice between Otto Fisch and Norm D'Plume....

Otto

Everwhyte Silvertrees, its another name I use regularly when playing RPG games.

Electric Monk. I use it on a local discussion board. If they saw Two Bit over there, they'd be able to find me on this site in a heartbeat. I want to preserve annoynimity, although a careful and lenghty search of this site will reveal where I live, my first name and my last name.

I originally took this name temporarily until I could come up with something better. The more I thought about it, the more I liked it. Wouldn't change it for anything, now.


Psst, Wampus... I'm a girl.

I don't think I'd change it. Mina has pretty much become the name that I'm called in real life too. If I've picked 'groovy girl' or something, it wouldn't have had quite the same ring.

Hatifnat, I never noticed where your name was from before

maybe a name like 'i pLEaDed InSAnIty'


A friend of mine on here is called 'Existential Elevator' -thought that was and interesting name...

Not telling it would give away my other identities. Which I quite enjoy using for lurking purposes.

Well, my real name is Tilde, but that doesn't sound as cool Places other than h2g2 I go by Le Fou, Opera Ghost, Stratford and Fosca - so if I had to have another nick, one of those would probably be it.

I'm very content with my current one, though

One problem with using a daft online id - I met my hubby online..irl it took me about two weeks before I could resist the urge to call him scooby_du.

Earnest

Oh Alec...

I stick to fleas

Elsewhere i use "Jean-Paul Sinatra" and "Arthur Ascii".

I like to stick with a theme so it's Hawt_DonkeyLuvn for me.

Euuuuu that doesn't sound right!

Liam.

That should have been Hawt_DonkiLuvn

Or Noble_HentaiArtist

Liam.
