    My name comes from german slang for crazy/insane.

    I was called Spacks when I was like 10 and it stuck. It stuck through highschool too.

    Lord - I'm descent from African Kings, Norse Commanders, British Noblemen, and French Merchants, so Lord is a fitting title. Also, like Lord Ravenclaw, I'm better than 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% of the fuckwads in this country, so I like to put a bit of distance between myself and them

    Supremo - In English last year, we were watching some educational film and for some reason, a guy said something along the lines of "you could name yourself El Supremo, start a cult, and take over a Latin American country." My friends heard this, and, noting my obvious tendencies towards self-deification and authoratarianism (I believe Dubya put it best (Never thought I'd hear myself say that) when he said "It would be a heckuva lot easier if it were a dictatorship, so long as I was in charge.") decided to call me El Supremo. It stuck.

    Mine is from Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance. Xantam is the big, nasty, purple, thing with a giant eyes and many other big eyes. Known as a beholder. Get it beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I must say I look nothing like this creature I just thought it sounded cool. :wink:

    I was elected 1 of 2 Captains to represent my school. We were competing against other schools. Chuck was already a nickname and to make myself sound more intimidating (ala Jerome "the Bus" Bettis) during my schools Junior Olympics, we added DaTruck to it. Thus My nickname plus something big and scary that rhymes. ChuckDaTruck .


    TaDa!! :D :D :D

    Forfie is a cutesy version of my last name that was given to me by and ex. I use it for HP Fandom because my other nicknames, Tricky, Trick Daddy, TDD, F-Trick, Trickmiester and such, are not memorable. Also, not that many peple know Forfie, so it's less reconisable, and when I started in the 9th grade I was very ashamed and paranoied of my addiction. Now I flaunt it. Go figure, eh?

    Mine is Dumbledore's half brother who preformed inappropriate charms on a goat. Most people think he is the bartender at the Hogshead.

    I don't think the charms were inappropriate so much as...unusual. What Abaforth didn't realize was that the best way to...do what he did with a goat, involves using a cliff so the goat pushes back. :wink:


    It really is the best way. :wink: :wink: :wink:
