OK, a lot of you guys use nicknames here that bear no resemblence to your real name, so what made you chose your nickname, and what does it mean!!

I simply chose mine becuase when i first joined in 1999/2000, i was an avid overclocker!!

The name mysteriously popped into my head one day at work, and only later did I find it's a form of angelic being with three pairs of wings. I liked the sounds and 'look' of the word, so I've stuck with it now.

Better than most of my Intarweb pseudonyms. Some of them have been truly terrible.

basically when I first got a PC my older brother had one so he networked them, so my PC needed a name, he had called his PC Highorbit, the workgroup was outerspace, so to follow the theme my pc became wormhole, and it has just stuck as usernames and email addresses :rolleyes:
