How did you come up with your nickname?

It comes from the first song that Queen (the band) ever recorded under that name, titled Mad The Swine. That was my handle way back when I was at high school in the mid to late 90s, and it got shortened to madswine when I was at college. I had a brief stint playing Counter Strike when I was at university and you had to have letters and numbers in your handle, so I used the 1337 letter a. I've stuck with it ever since.

Why did this thread die out? I'm gonna be a bad mod and necro this since name entymology can be interesting, granted mine isn't...


Went to play some game online, don't remember which, my usual handle (Vyse) was taken. I happened to be reading the Wheel of Time books at the time, tried Saidin, taken, combined it with Saidar to get Saidir. Been using it ever since.

In high school, an old friend of mine gave me the nick name Kay Cake which is perfect name for my initial, its K.C; I have been using Kay Cake as my name over the internet ever since then instead of using my real name. From 2010 I kind of, went crazy for Nicki Minaj, I was very obsessed with her, and at the time the whole "wanna minaj" thing was going around so I gave myself the name "Cake Wanna Minaj".

Purple is my signature color. To be honest I love it so much that it's the sole thing that attracted me to Urban Decay when I stepped in a Sephora for the first time. The "417" stands for the day my bf and I decided to go "steady" lol.
