How did you choose your username?

[grizzlym]

My user name is fairly unimaginative too.

'Grizzly' is the host specimen.
'M' denotes the bacterial strain.

 

[moistie]

I deal with water for a living and I like a double entendre.

 

[Drew Peacock]

My parents have a particularly cruel sense of humour.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

It chose me.

 

[noosa hawk mad]

I'm Mad I lived in Noosa & i love the Hawks...... they call me Noose.......

 

[Frankston Rover]

I never played for Frankston Rovers JFC (Go the Bulls) but they are the home of Dermott Brereton and they wear brown and gold.

 

[Off The Couch]

Fairly obvious really - now that the middle aged spread has started and competitive sport is a thing of the past - lying on the couch watching the game is as competitive as I get these days.

New Year resolution is to get off the couch so hopefully may look at changing it if all goes according to my imagination.

 

[Bayer_]

Spent a bit of time in Germany, most notably in Munich, so chose the German word for Bavarian, i.e. Bayer.

 

[CyrilIsDelicious]

I ain't mean by any stretch my friend, but a little prudent suspicion never hurt anyone right?

See, where I start to get curious is that for someone who appears to have trouble with capital letters, you seemed to cram 3 into your user name just fine.

Add to that a capital "U" for the start of your location in addition to a capital "C" for Cyril being a proper noun and all, an apostrophe to denote ownership when referring to "Cyril's bed" but conveniently a lower case "b" for "bed", being a common noun... That's a decent effort!

Let me guess, someone helped you out there right?

I know how to use the capital letters. You use them for names and places and at the start of a sentence. I just dont feel like using them but this time i did it for you. I dont know what you mean by proper noun and common noun and apostrophe but does it matter. We are just hear to talk about the mighty Hawks and all things about footy.

Someone did help me with the location part. lol I work in a box factory and the guys tease me a bit because i love Cyril so much. One time someone asked me where do i live and before i could say anything Dimi (a real jerk) said that i live under Cyrils bed. It was pretty funny because it would be cool if i lived with Cyril and we had bunk beds. If he slept on top i would live under Cyrils bed lol.

 

[Arkadia]

Chose the mountainous region that my parents came from back in the old country. In mythology the God 'PAN' was born there, so they say.

 

[Consumed]

I deal with water for a living and I like a double entendre.

I met a lady once who liked double entendres.........so I gave her one.


My username came about because I was living in Florida for years and just couldn't get enough news about Hawthorn and the AFL.

 

[Fevola99]

I never played for Frankston Rovers JFC (Go the Bulls) but they are the home of Dermott Brereton and they wear brown and gold.

I never played for them either but I live 100 meters from their home ground.

For my name I took my favourite player's surname and the year he debuted. Not.

 

[Rioli2Franklin]

Likely regular call by commentators this year, as Cyril will be playing in the midfield a lot more (freeing up Rhan Hooper to bludge more in the forward line!).

He will stream out of the centre and land it laces out on Buddy's tit.

Plus I have a man crush on Hodge2Franklin.

 

[phreeze77]

My Name came from the game Unreal Tournament in the years 1999 to 2001 - game handle.. I was a newbie .. I liked the character Freeze in Batman.. 77 year of birth

Which was later changed to SCopE(for my sniping exploits) .. to which i still use today for any other game I play.. Mainly CODMW2.

 

[Hodges]

Mine comes from a catchy song I liked at the time of signing up, called **** Hodges. Was literally the first thing that came to me, didnt put a lot of thought into it.

 

[H2F]

After having my CrannyPeter account cancelled by Admin, I came up with Hodge2Franklin.

My two favourite players at the time.

Now it would need to go Shoey2Ellis2Rioli2Mitch2Sewell2Roughy2Lewis2Changa ahhh you get the point.

 

[lickmerocks]

I enjoy getting my rocks licked.

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

Well I took the name of my fav player and turned it into a reference of my ancestry.

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

I enjoy getting my rocks licked.

I did think about using gums on plums

 

[Dipper]

I'm an expert pickpocket.

 

[Mervyn Beasley]

Couple of old nicknames combined.

 

[Goody1971]

Goody = a shortening of my surname. 1971 = the year I was born, and of course a Hawthorn premiership year also

 

[Dewnior]

I was devastated when I found that 'Junior' was taken so I dejectedly chose a homonym

I wanted to change it to 'Dewnya' but the Mods said no

 

[Bayer_]

Mr. Shadforth - care to explain yourself sir???

 

[hawkheart]

It's a bit like Braveheart, innit?
