What does ur nickname mean ?!?!?


Palkid7 I was just wondering, why don't everyone tell us what does his/her nickname mean and/or why did he/she choose it ?? Waiting for ur replies !! :)
constantine constantine= really loved the movie... am a graphic novels/art freak...loved the idea...and sounds like a name i would choose for myself if i could speak when i was born... :wink: ... the_zooter Ok, I'll have a go at explaining mine...... Zooter is a cricket type of term. (Ok, here comes the boring bit...) A "zooter" is a type of delivery a leg spinner bowls (made most famous by Shane Warne). When I was younger and a budding leggie myself, I tried to master this delivery, but unfortunately completely ruined everything I'd learnt and couldn't bowl at all for many years!!! Anyway, after that I just liked the word - and when I first him the information superhighway, I kept typing my name in, only to find that they'd been taken, so when trying to think of something original that nobody else had taken, I thought of my favourite word - zooter - hence its stuck with me - I am The Zooter !!! What about everyone else??? arniegang If i told you i would have to kill you 8) 8) 8) Jeevan Mine means Life, water and by the way is my real name :) my nicks Jerry :). cheers, Jerry Palkid7
Well, I can try my luck with that !!
Hit me !!
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: fayz I’m not an original person Fayz is short for my given name and is what most of my friends call me back home I'm going to take a wild guess and say you're a kid from Palestine :P XRW-147 XRW is actually the model of my (favourite) car backwards - which you can read when I am in your rearview mirror :) 147 is my lucky number and is also tattooed on my arm in chinese. Palkid7
BINGO ! :lol: :lol: :lol:
Palestinian Kid=PALKID, and 7 is my fav # !!
Although I am not a kid anymore :lol: :lol: , but that what alot of my friends still call me !! 8) 8) 8) Concord It means NOB in Mongolian. NOYB in english are the first three letters of an often use response to probing questions. come to think of it now, I should have used that one instead but Mongolian won out!

kanelli Just because 8) wannabe i chose my screen name because i know that there is no way i am going to settle in dubai in the near future no matter how much i want to... but i can dream and wait patiently for the next 40 yrs till i retire and get my life back so although not in or from dubai ...i wannabe! ...lol Chocoholic Because I like chocolate - obviously. Mel Marie Mel Marie Some people say it's the goddess of love for the Romans :roll: I say it's a hidden desire for a thing or a person. thorntonashley Mine is simply my name, thought it sounded more professional in a way,rather than making up a nickname... perhaps not..! XRW, wouldnt 22B- 147 be a better one.. or perhaps STi - 147 I agree it is an awesome machine.... better than a 911 turbo though ? less dangerous i know that much! XRW-147
B22 and ITS would be mistaken for other things matey :) Plus my first one was just an MY99 WRX. The STi joined the household later but being known just as "X" kinda caught on :D
When you have 400hp at all 4 threads and 750nms of torque from 3,500rpm at your mercy a 911 turbo doesn't compare ;) Corcovado well i am a huge fan of brazillian jazz and i listened to this song 3 years ago and someone stole it :evil: so i looked for it for a long time till i finally found it and its called "corcovado" which is the christ statue in Rio Brazil which i really like so voila :) Palkid7
Oh man,
u reminded me of my old car and my old days :cry: , when I used to be a speed-car freak :twisted: :twisted: !! well not any more !! I am stuck now with a 1.6 engine !! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: XRW-147
Speaking of old :)
I do miss her!
888 my fav no. 8 is a good no. in the Chinese language. It means prosperity, or rather, it sounds like the character meaning prosperity in Chinese. Triple 8 is even better :wink: thorntonashley XRW, OMG that is a serious piece of kit, i had no idea you had modified your scooby to such an extent... I can imagine the 0-60 times were around the 4.5 mark..! Q, mile in 13 ? My friend has a Rover 220 Turbo in the U.K with some serious mods...345 BHP with a weight of only 1.3 tonnes...think it would have been a good race ! Are you driving something more sober nowadays ? lol XRW-147 0-60 in 4 flat ;) and Qtr mile at 12.2 with 1.4bar of boost. Didn't get the chance to run it again with the 1.6 bar tune cause I came here - should be good for an 11.9. Run around in a Porka now mate - but hopefully not for long ;) thorntonashley Cant be bad ! what were you thinking of, something german ? maybe a EVO VIII MR FQ-400 would re-kindle your zest for excitement, not sure if they import them here but 450 BHP standard OMG ! If you have watched Top Gear before, they have tested one round a track and its far quicker than a gallardo or a Ferrari 575 GTC! you might find this link interesting....! / anyway, im well off topic, i just love cars though ! XRW-147
Yes, I think we are straying, lets take offline. A64Venice A64 is a chip and Venice is a place in Italy. Cant remember why I chose this nick. :) Dubai Knight This is only my DF name but its something I have been called many times in the last few years...rescuing damsels in distress a speciality, dragons slain (quotation on request!) :lol: :lol: :lol: Knight Douce`Amere “Douce Amere” is parfum: “A fresh oriental blend of cinnamon, tiare flower, jasmine, tagette, musk… very sweet... a kind of "Hypnotic Poison" in a much more complicated way with the amertume of Absynthe... with an undercurrent that changes from sweet to bitter for as long as one keeps wearing the fragrance... a masterpiece of subtlety”. To be translated from French it sounds merely as “bitter sweet” or “bitter beauty”. easternjewel erm jewel from east duh but i never thot bout meeting DF members n being introducing as "HI, I AM EATERN JEWEL" :wave: :shock: :shock: bummer! Nothing of self Vanity types, just been using this nick since the age 16 :D FeiPo feipo = fat woman saracen From the arabic word sharqiyyin ("easterners").

Obviously, some (Kilani) are wanting to "return to their routes"!!
:D :D :D :D wannabe have to dispute that decendents of apes thing zooter...don't beleive in evolution from apes theory Liban

:lol: :lol: :lol: MaaaD i was first introduced to the internet by an uncle who used the handle BaaaD so i thought it would be cool to use MaaaD (i was 14 then !!) .. "mad" are also the last three letters of my name :) krisk My nickname is Mad. Short for Madhav. Madhav Moester well my name is Moe and it's short for Mohammed and "ster" comes from the word Monster. now that i think of it, it's kinda lame :cry: XRW-147
Not that lame, u'd fit right in with the gang from Muppets or Sesame Street. Moester oh yeah :evil: well at least my nick name doesn't sound like a broken down robot hehehe j/k GAB OOOOOH! Six posts and I reckon this guy is pretty good X?? Made me laugh! :lol: Moester
something wrong with my 6 posts? :?
well 7 now hehehe :D XRW-147 Gotta agree G, I like him already :lol: Welcome to DF Moey. Moester thank you XRW and GAB. looks like it's gonna be fun GAB Oh, you just don't know what trouble you've landed into!! :lol: :lol: :lol: Moester what trouble??? i didn't do anything.. did i? XRW-147 She means this place is trouble my Sesame friend ;) Moester i see well thanks a lot my rundown robot friend. GAB
Are you paranoid? possibly gullible too?? Oooooh, we are going to have fun with you!! :lol: :lol: PMSL Moester just an act honey, it's just an act 8) GAB You should get an Oscar. :lol: Moester you think so too? awww you're so sweet GAB Ah, a dash of humour and now a little sarcasm. Hey, shouldn't you be working?? Moester funny you mentioned that, my work is finished so i get to go home now. thanks i really lost track of time XRW-147 And the oscar for oustanding sarcasm in a children's progam goes to... dbxsoul
hahaha... going home at 3pm.... can't work for the government then, as they left at 12 GAB He can't be doing much work anyway!! He's posted 19 in one day! :shock: I could never do that! :lol: arniegang nor me :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: GAB Nooooooooooooooooooooooo, you wouldn't spend hours at the computer would ya Arnie?? :lol: arniegang Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo most certainly not :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: geraintindxb wow, it's my turn now. "geraintindxb" Geraint is my english name which is given by myself. it means the Fighter in the War. and i love a movie called " Gladiator". obviously the figher is in Dubai now:) the_zooter
Isn't Geraint a Welsh name?? :? geraintindxb
Yes, u are right. XRW-147
Z, I don't think he meant english in the context of origin. Typically Chinese people don't get given an 'english' name at birth so along the lines of growing up they tend to give themselves an 'english' name to make things a little easier. the_zooter
Ok, sorry, I'm with it now!!! Thanks for clarifying!! XRW-147
Yes, 19/day total would be considered an off day for you matey. If it were 19/topic/day then it would be closey aligned to reality :lol: makhan makhan=butter, do i have to say any more as to the uses of butter. from kitchen to parliament, from the cow till the UNO, and everywhere in between, u find it everywhere. apl apl are my intitials as I'm too lazy to create yet another userId and mix them up. I tend to get creative on passwords though :) only have 7-8 and play them around with increasing numbers. Moester
well i'm one of a kind :wink: GAB :lol: :lol: And you would be implying?????.................Arnie doesn't work much either?? :lol: geraintindxb
u r right. usually chinese people just got a chinese name which is given by their parents when they were bron. you can say chinese doesn't have english name. but they might get an egnlish name when they started to learn english in shcool . It's not offical one, but it's still an english name.;) as i mentioned Geraint was given be myself. Moester not trying to imply anything here Shahad HI, r Salam alekum :) Mine nick this my name that means honey :oops: hashman Since I am in computer science field my name denotes a hash function which is a way of creating a small digital "fingerprint" from any kind of data MaaaD
in what language ? Sara1983 Sara- is my name 1983- year I was born :P GAB
:shock: :shock: :shock: Another spring chicken!! :oops: Sara1983
