Smile How did you choose your Org name?

I can't recall if I've ever seen a thread like this, but we have a few newbies on here so I wondered, how did you come up with your Org name?

Mine was from when I did a charity abseil years ago and in measuring me up for the safety helmet the organiser remarked that I had 'a head the size of a pea and a face that is green from fear to match' and so my friends have been calling me Little Pea Head ever since.

Obviously some people have put more effort into this than others... (It must have taken Stu and Christopher AGES to come up with something so imaginative!)

Poorly. As a few people have pointed out it has a limited shelf life.

from the film Hackers! I remember all sorts of useless information just like Lord Nikon (yes I was a prepubescent teen) and it's just stuck with me every time I've needed a username....

Mine isn't because I'm a window licker

My wife bought me a ps3 for chrimbo when they first game out and my first game was FIFA, Chelsea were winning everything at the time with Jose Morinho (the special one) so in a feeble attempt to intimidate online opponents I called my psn name special one so used it ever since on any forums etc.

Kaivalagi = Person from the land of foreigners in the Fijian language.

I lived there for a few years, got married there, had a kid there then came back to blighty eventually, I needed to be a responsible father and work where the money was...all the kids in the villages that didn't know me would call me "kaivalagi!" so it's been my online name ever since.

Cheers,
Mark

From my initials, because I eat a lot and because I'm slimy and horrible.
