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

My nickname is two Welsh words I stuck together: castle and white. When I started playing Diablo on line, years ago, I wanted something that sounded celtic.

I now use it on other online communities.

When I entered it into google I found I wasn't entirely unique.

Wulfric means "Power of the Wolf" in Anglo-Saxon and was picked because it sounded good. Boring, eh?

Well my nick name is from a Cat Stevens song.....obviously called RubyLove....its a great song i love the lyrics in it!!!Ruby

My name comes from a mixture of:

Weber- who composed a lot of clarinet music (that I love performing) and is my favourite composer.

and...

quetzal- which is a type of beautiful endangered bird. I read a poem that incorporated a quetzal and was hooked! Also reflects my concerns for the environment.


wq

How do you pronounce blaue augen???

Wow I didn't know that quetzals still existed...I am Apache which would probably mean before that my family was Aztec...I find this very interesting...I used to read a lot about tribes who worshipped this bird as a child...not going to worship a bird but do you know a site that has a picture of it???

Hi, Ruby-Love: Great name. I also love the part in that song where he sings in Greek.

You *must* be in New Zealand, am I right?

I think it's wonderful! I am writing time travel stories about Anglo Saxons, and I love the names...

Sorry, was the New Zealand query for me? If so, no, I'm in Washington, D.C.

Hey, that rhymes pretty nicely!

New Zealanders put 'u' into Lynette, pronouncing it Lunette... I knew many Lynette's at school.

Actually, I've just backtracked - it's Lenny who is Lynette!

I have a Virago motorbike and I called her Vicki

Just adopted her name for hootoo

I think Blaue Augen is pronounced Blawa (the aw as in "how") and ow'gn. Wulfric by way of uninterest, is pronounced (as far as I can make out) Wulf-reech.

Blaue Augen....Blue eyes?

my last name's 'feetham'. pretty self explanatory, i don't think people believe me when i say my feet are made of ham...

Thanks Big Red it is a great song!!!

Blaua Augen is pronounced, I believe, "Blawa Owg'n" (the au like "how" and the final e is almost silent).

Wulfric, out of disinterest, is pronounced "Wulf-reech" (I think!)

Andrea Ortiz- I actually don't know a particular site to find quetzals on but I definitely know that Google does!!



Everyone has such interesting names!
