Why/how did you choose your BLF Username?

My name is Jos and 6 years ago I thought that ‘djozz’ sounded kind of cool. In the meantime I think that ‘Jos’ would have been perfectly ok.

It’s complicated… :person_facepalming:

But my name’s in there somewhere :smiley:

No not really, djozz is way cooler IMHO! :smiley:

Upon the remarks that I do not sign off my PM’s as Henk, I have explained quite often that:

One fine morning a very dear (ex) colleague called me absent minded “Henk” two times in a row.
So I told her that I did not have any objections to be “Henk for you too” = Henk4U2.

I live in Stittville and my name is Ed

I also use Kart17DD which was the number of my Son’s Kart when he raced and I was Direct Drive some of the time.

Not to be confused with D. Kolchak

Back in 1994 I replaced the crappy suspension fork that came with my Giant Cadex CFM-3 with a Manitou 3 from Answer products. I always thought the Manitou 2 was funny (especially since it was a pink tou-2).

Since manithree is a made-up word, it’s almost always available and I use it everywhere.

When I was a kid I liked the little puzzle game called Klotski where you move the pieces around to get one specific pieces out. When I started working I would get calls from company’s wanting to sell me something I didn’t need (shop air hose, light bulbs, cleaning solutions) I would politely tell them that I didn’t need it but if they were persistent and wouldn’t quit I would simply say they need to speak with Klotski. Now when I page Klotski over the intercom everyone just laughs, I actually have a friend that sells this way and a good product but some of these people just wont quit.

Always wondered if it would be d’jozz or DJ ozz

Mine is my last name btw, everyone calls me by it

DB is my name initials, and SAR is short for “Search And Rescue” (my former job before i moved to Ontario, with a local Ground search & rescue team & Fire department.) back then we used dim plastic lightbox flashlights and Incan Maglites.

Science fiction fan here. Been using this nick since mIRC.

I bring Light to the world…

Name’s not important, but you can call me Lu.

I played a lot of StarCraft in my younger days , my user name is a character from the game.

My forum name is a derivative of a very expensive past hobby. At the rate I’m going, this hobby is climbing up on the list.

I used to be quite active on archery forums. I used a compound bow for target archery only, and since the forums were dominated by U.S. and Canadian bowhunters I was often asked what I hunted in South Africa. I changed my signature to “hunter of the dreaded Zulumoose” in response, and it went from there, has been my username on various things for maybe 20 years or so.

Someone on a forum asked “What biblical character do you most align yourself with ?”.
Probably expecting people to say the prodigal son , Simon Peter or doubting Thomas ,Noah ,Job …etc.
Without thinking I just said ….BOAZ . Afterwards realizing how little anyone really knows about him .

My name is Oton so I thought Photon makes sense for this forum :slight_smile:

my user name is the Arabic name for lantern or lamp (in Arabic it is written as قنديل). It fits in here very well LOL :smiley: :smiley:

My ex’s have not been kind to me.
