What's In A Name?

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!

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

[livejournal.com profile] 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.'

[livejournal.com profile] 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

[livejournal.com profile] socksofcool - In canon Booth wears really funky socks, which apparently David helps pick.

[livejournal.com profile] twohalvesofaphd - In the pilot, Goodman refuses to acknowledge Zack's existence because he "only talks to PhDs". Zack in turn points out he's halfway though two doctorates and two halves make a whole, so he should totally count.

[livejournal.com profile] sideburnsofwar - See (http://mikes-images.com/scans/otherscans/pages/ares_and_aphrodite_2000n.htm) attached (http://mikes-images.com/scans/otherscans/pages/ares_mq_2004n.htm) pictures (http://mikes-images.com/scans/otherscans/pages/ares_mq_2023.htm). Although I have to give credit to [livejournal.com profile] deandestroyer for actually coming up with it.

[livejournal.com profile] wannabehunter - Jo wants to be a hunter. Of course she's still more like an overgrown puppy than a big bad hunter.

[livejournal.com profile] psycho_barbie - Xena fandom nickname for Cal, it's been around for ages and ages, and I luckily managed to snag it.

I'm still amazed that you managed to snag [livejournal.com profile] psycho_barbie, really.
