I pulled Eagle from My full name James Eagle Moore because I liked eagle. My middle name Eagle was given to me from my grandmothers maden name Eagleton. I started getting into web design and I liked "designer" so I put two and two togeather and wala eagledesigner.

well i chose ghettocaress because it was my site at the time. although now my sn would probably be goatslacker.
the story on goatslacker: i was taking my leaving exam which determines graduation at my school. i needed a new sn since my old one was josh3316, i disliked the numbers. so i was thinking about something odd, unusual, that would give people something to think/talk, and above all easy to remember. there was a poster on the wall with a funny looking goat, so i said goat, aloud. then i was wearing a shirt that said slacker, and i said slacker aloud. then i said 'goatslacker, its perfect' and everyone stared at me like if i was insane...
thats the story.
oh yeah, ghettocarnage, yea thats from ghettocars.tripod.com  old site thats been running since 1995 or 94 sometime there |

----^ oh and if youre wondering why they call me ghettocards, ghettocarnage, ghettocaress, ghettocarma, ghettocarriage. the story behind that is that when i first joined the forums, some people were ranting off to me and kept mispelling my name, they just couldnt finish off the ghettocars, they kept typing in ghettocards and ghettocyan, which made me wonder why...
and when i became moderator the problem just got worse. and its still a standing joke, especially in nemo's head, errr Deemo*  |

minstrel, meaning someone who wanders around aimlessly making music 
again, one of those I've used for ages, echoing my misspent youth and occasional enduring fantasies of being a rock star... and I like the connotation of just meandering around meeting and entertaining people

hmmm....I am really not sure where I got mine from. I am thinking it was my mother's maiden name...or maybe it was the newest kind of cheese.

You'd actually be suprised how many people think I'm aged 43 and that is why I'm named David43
I just decided upon it for simplicity, David was already taken as it is on most forums, so I add the 43 to the end, as they're right next to each other on the keyboard. |

I think that I did post in this already, but heh...
Well, I have two usernames that I use alot: MrChuckles and InnocentKiller. At the first time I registered here, I used InnocentKiller. I posted about 12 times and left. When I came back, I couldn't remember my old password, so I just made up this one. If I registered now, I would probably use the name ^demon (yes, with the insert mark). I dunno. But my name on sites depends on what site I'm with. My total list of usernames is:
MrChuckles
InnocentKiller
^demon
WaHoOoO!
Chad H. (my real name, and I use it on my webhost)
But to you guys, I'll always be WaHoOoO!

Ok i've put this off long enough so I may as well get it over with. In about 5th grade I started saying cripes for no particular reason. I did this instead of cussing. Well once i started getting into forums, I needed a nickname. That was back in 2000. Cripes didnt sound like the best name, and since Cripes2000 didnt work, I went with Criper2000. The only time i wasnt able to use Criper2000 was on AIM because someone else had taken it, so I went with Criper972.

It all started 7 years ago in high school. It seems kind of childish now that I think 'bout it. But a couple of friends and I were walking around saying we were "evil." Not in a "goth" way, but mostly to poke fun at ourselves (because we were the least evil bunch of people I know).
Anyway, at some point some said: " Trent," (that's my name, see), "you're the ruler of all that is evil!" That led to the acronym: T.R.O.A.T.I.E.
It's stuck since then. It's the url for my personal website, and my username in just about every forum. And its never taken. 
Oh, and I pronounce it TROH-TEE |

I don't really remember where my username came from. I think I just figured it out somehow one day, long time ago, and used it happily ever after...
Some ppl suggested that I might have taken it from a name Craigh...but I had no idea that such a name exist until the above suggestion were given Maybe that was my name in my previous life or sth |

I got the name LooseCannon because its the name of the company im starting (LooseCannon Design). And I Picked it because the whole time I was growing up my family and friends always said I was a bit of a "Loose Cannon " being kinda unpredictible and doing my own thing. Also i just think it sounds cool |

here's another portion of "how people's minds work" Dave :
"OmuCuSucu" ... the longer version would be "Omul Cu Sucul" and would mean "The Man with the Juice/Soda" ... and that's be because i used to drink 4 to 6 litres of Pepsi Twist a day ... reduced it to 2 to 4 now
