We kind of have a family naming convention for Usernames  ;D

My two brothers are known as Jumbobazman and Stellamockman...

You mean your brothers are named Baz and Mock?  ???

zaapark

Was working with some Ukrainians many, many years ago and pick up some Russians from them.  Zaapark is zoo in Russian, so I figured no one else on the web would use zoo as a handle.  My avatar, the Keebler Elf, is the nick name giving to me by co-workers long ago while delivery pizzas in Denton Texas.  Apparently I worked my "elfin magic" to woo my female co-workers. :) :D

I think we need to expand on this bit, possibly with pictures...  :D

Pruneau

Pruneau Brisecoeur is my first Chivalry and Sorcery fantasy RPG character, a mischievous bard, bastard son to a french baronet, that had quite a way with the ladies.  He was particularly fond of halfling females, for reasons too nasty to mention here.

Yep  ;D  Baz = Barry, Mock = Mockett (surname) - his forename is Kev.

Last Hussar

Because Mad Half Elf (which I used at Uni 20 years ago) is just silly.

Hussars are dashing, if narcissitic, lunatics.  Anyone who has seen me use cavalry will know thats how I use them.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Were you looking at your car when you registered?!   :D

We actually had a customer the other week, who placed an order and registered on the website as 'Pendraken'.  Simples.

ziparoo

My standard username I usually use is matonet. My name is Mat. Ergo Mat with 1 't'. When registering with the pendraken forum, I couldn't think of anything original and got the name of a horse from the form guide. Hence 'Ziparoo'. The serendipitous link with this is that I'm an Aussie and now have a username with 'roo' on the end.

Nicofig

My Name is Nicolas and I love Figures so my Username is simple Nicofig  :D
And it's the same thing for many ML I ave create Napofig, Royalfig, Navalfig, and my site is http://www.nicofig.fr
:d

Derek H

My first name is Derek.  My surname begins with H.

Simples.
