Mostly for us old-timers. How do you feel about your Languish nom de plume after so many years?
Still awesome.
Meh, its comfortable.
Copasetic.
For myself...it's my ancient handle from Everquest. Totally unsuitable anymore, but I'm not arsed enough to change it.
I'd like to hear from the non-old-timers. :)
Prefer original name, neither really feels "right".

I'm alright with my name.
It's the name of my first character in Diablo II.
I'd like to change it, but I don't know if I'll ever do it.

I learned a new word today!
I've been Razgovory for a long, long time now. Since 1997 or so. I'm beginning to think of myself as Raz more then I do as Brad.
I really, really like the "CdM" name.
I'm in the "Who gives a fuck?" Camp.

I also think of him more as Raz than Brad. :hmm:
I've thought about changing it a few times, but never quite sure what to change it to. The only reason it's not 'Caligula' is because I matched it to my old hotmail address, which I couldn't use caligula for because it was already taken. I actually own a pair of caligae too, so that's kind of a neat tie-in.

Well you once gave a fuck enough to change it :P
I still feel the urge to overthrow the unjust Ancien Regime so I am happy with my handle.
Fuck you. That's my name.
:cool:

Given that there are so many freakin llawyers on Languish I feel mine is kind of silly and pretentious. But at least I axed the "Boy" when I had a chance.
What's in a name?

It was less pretentious when it had the "Boy" attached. :P

A FunkMonk by any other name would be just as funky.
Unlike ChilliWilli, FunkMonk was funky enough to stick around. :cheers:
Its all good.
Always thought it was a little clumsy but I don't care to change it. At least it abbreviates well.
Why would I not like my name?

Was that supposed to be an answer?
You're free to like the name or not as you wish; I just found the apparent meaning of the term humorous with regard to you.

I found your old name inspirational. :)
My allonym (even if I didn't spell it quite right the first time through) and my signature are play on Detroit, which calls itself "The Renaissance City." It also fit the time period of EU. Since I no longer live in Detroit, it's no longer as fitting; but I still like it. :)
Since I now live in The Sunshine State", I should call myself Louis XIV and troll Valmy constantly. :P
Wasn't your initial name misspelled though? Savronela or something? :P Edit: sorry read too fast. Originally, I thought it was intentional. :P
My name is my real name only in Latin so it is as (ir)relevant and pretentious as it was 14 years ago when I joined Paradox.
I still like that port wine so no reason to change.
I have used this same name for all things internet for 20 years now. I just can't be arsed to change it, even if it's a bit silly-sounding.
It's the name of a character in the ICE Middle Earth roleplaying game.
I'm over it but change it would just confuse people & be ignored.
Just like when gov change a bridge name. Old name remains for decades.
You mean those aren't your real names? :huh:

Sickly? Check. Old soul? Check. Mustachioed? Check. Kinda pervy? Check. Only fail is interest in young and then female bit. :(
But then you can get them all right when prophesying over a decade ago.
I liked Dorsey4Heisman better. :(

I always used to think that you were Dorsey and declaring your undying love for Heisman. Or the other way round.
Better than ever ;)
My name is great and I am also great.
It is better than ever.
Meh. It still works.

Just want to remind you that when Benedict Arnold betrayed royals he eventually thought better of it.
I dunno why he has to go out of state to find crappy teams to root for when there's the Mets. :P
I'm an American League fan. Blame my dad. :lol:
Anywho, I like my name. Short and easy to remember.
Why did you drop your ass?
Too heavy to lug around.
Edward James Olmos' ass. :wub:
I changed it on a whim back when the new board was first setup and everyone was having fun changing names randomly.
Meh.

Eh. I regret the name change with the new forum, but whatevs. CC suited my particular brand of idiocy far better.

You sound fat.
All overweight people really need to do is believe in themselves, because they can overcome their problems. All it takes is a little discipline, and a little hope, and I think everyone has the ability to put both to good use. :)

All over. After my last bout with fluids, I went from 170 to 240. 70 pounds of it was fluid.
Too bad I wasn't into giving(or taking pervs) golden showers. I would have been in 7th heaven.
:console:
When I first played Everquest, I needed a unique name. I started with money, of course. I took a brief look at Freeport city, and saw a shop called emporium or something. I combined "money" and "emporium" and got this.
I adopted mine because I'm the least ideologically biased person I know. It's ironic. :)
Peter lemonjello was more fun but after being shot at, three brokèn bones, surviving a hurricane in the Florida straights in a thirty foot boat, having a knife pulled on me, surviving pnuemonia and a hemorrhagic stroke I think Rasputin may be more appropriate.

Jacksonvilles anyhow. I told my fiancé early on " all of the rumors you've heard about me being a man whore are true. "
I look forward to the day when we just say "whore," without distinction to gender. :P
