What's In A Name?

[multiplez]

LJ names. We all have them. We probably think some of them are pretty clever. But to someone who doesn't know your fandom, your LJ handle may not make any sense whatsoever. So I thought I'd ask:

What does your character's LJ name mean, and how did you decide on it?

Since it's my bright idea, I'll start!

multiplez: Well, her name is Z, and she multiplies. I tend to say it like 'multiplex' with a z, which, yes, sounds funny.

swerval_zero: Her name is Zero! Zero doesn't always use actual words, preferring instead words she makes up herself. I tend to tone this down at FH because a lot of people don't get it. 'Swerval' is a Zero-speak adjective, meaning something like 'awesome' or 'cool.'

screwyoumarvel: In the recent Marvel Crossover Event Civil War (tm) (yes they really trademarked 'Civil War') Steve got killed. So, screw you, Marvel. It gives me vindictive glee to type his username every time I sign in. :D

kawalsky - speaks for itself really. It's his name.

ismyhairout - Hades' hair is made of fire. When it gets blown out, he gets pissed, but he doesn't always realise it's out until a few seconds later.

imissmydolphin - Lucas' BFF is Darwin, the dolphin. Says a lot about his social skills really. He had to leave Darwin behind on SeaQuest. WOE for him.

no_toast_thanks - in the second book, Thursday goes on a talk show and is pressured by the host to eat toast. She states adamantly that she really doesn't like toast and it's a big funny scene where she finally eats the damned toast to appease the Toast Marketing Board, the sponsors of the show.

turtle_toughguy - Raph is the enforcer of the brothers. He's the tough guy. This is emphasised in the movie by him having a Brooklyn accent for no good reason. :D
