So surely the nick you want is still available? If they are spelling it wrong? Unles your spelling it wrong as well

Unfortunately not, they spelt it with a capital B: DingleBerry.

Nickname I was given as uni by my mates. It started out as Dirtydog, then shortly became Richdog... couldn't have asked for a better nickname to be honest, I love it.

It was what I did for a living. Now that I don't do it anymore I dislike it, it reminds of my job.
On other forums Ive joined since I retired I use Mack100, not very original but it was my callsign from AirWarrior days.

Oh dear here we go again...

Was originally HyperShadowX on some Sonic forums
Made some sprite comics under the title HXComics
HXC became my nick.
Changed it to all lowercase as "hxc", but when I signed up here it wouldn't work due to an odd email address, a don regged instead and I got a capital. Might try and get that changed one day

Nothing to do with "hardcore"

I can get that changed for you if you want.

As for my name? Sticky keys

Duke · 2 Jan 2009 at 19:33

I was a big fan of Duke Nukem 3D and kept this nick since.

regulus · 2 Jan 2009 at 19:41

Got mine from the bottom of a hotelroom boiler in Bratislava. Said "Regulus". Name kinda stuck in my head.

Zefan · 2 Jan 2009 at 19:42

I was signing up to xbox live to play Halo 2 while on the phone to the ex girlfriend, who happened to be reading the Bible at the time (not religious or anything, she's just a bit crazy). I couldn't think of a gamertag at all so I quizzed her for decent names and Zephaniah seemed fitting.

poopots · 2 Jan 2009 at 19:45

It's my birth name.

TwoSaints · 2 Jan 2009 at 19:48

Mine comes from my name and the number on the back of my football shirts

uv · 2 Jan 2009 at 20:09

the forum wouldn't allow 'uv', it's too short
