Explain your KB name

[Slingshot]

There are some interesting names on KiwiBiker.

Mine is the name of my first bike...Suzuki GSXR250RR "Slingshot", I simply didn't/don't have the creativity to come up with anything better.

So...what does your name mean????

[MidnightMike]

BikerKight90 was taken :crybaby:
so I (being completely unoriginal) came up with this :headbang:

[MidnightMike]

Bump, C'mon guys dont let this thread die :cry:

[Firefight]

Bump, C'mon guys dont let this thread die :cry:


Try a search.

F/F

[Oakie]

'Oakie' ... my father's nickname while a fighter pilot flying out of Singapore in WWII. (just a shortening of our surname)

[Slingshot]

Try a search.

F/F

I'm too lazy to search...and anyway, what would you search on?

"explain your name" (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/search.php?searchid=912838)
"name" (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/search.php)
"handle" (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/search.php?searchid=912840)

So I assume Firefight is because you're a Fire fighter?

[sunhuntin]

no idea what it means....lol. its my current nickname on msn....born from cruisin to the sun, then ct_ts to sunhuntin....prefer this over any other nick ive got. used everywere except trademe.

:sun:

[skelstar]

My best mate is generous when it comes to giving nicknames...my username is a evolution of my real name. It starts clever but gets more and more 'tenious'.

Sean Kelly (real name - I dont hide)
Skelly wag
skel
skel-star (like pornstar, what can I say...the man is a visionary)
skelstar (the one you see here today).

[Karma]

Ask any of the birds I've known in the past, and bam, you've got my nickname.

[LXS]

haha my real name is alex, so alex=lxs

tryed to get creative but um.. yeah still trying.

[Indiana_Jones]

Just stole my name from my Fedora wearing hero, Indiana Jones :D

-Indy

[KLOWN]

always been a bit of a clown

[Bonez]

My name's always been Bonez? "s" is sooooooooooooooo common.

[froggyfrenchman]

My last name is de Malmanche

Known to my mates as "frog" or "the frenchman" Diddnt take long for the two to be combined, forever labling me as froggyfrenchman.

For the record, im NOT french

[Kornholio]

Mine is my mother's middle name. :|

[Deviant Esq]

Came up with "Devi@nt" when playing Counter Strike back in the day. I'd never had any decent name I'd played CS by, and one day a guy had a dig at me for playing under a boring name. Devi@nt popped into my head right away and I used that for a long time. Then I started an online RPG (still kinda playing it now... LOL) about a year and a half ago, and wanted to name myself something royal. Sir Deviant was taken, anything longer wouldn't fit, and I hate using numbers in a username (shows lack of imagination). So I came up with Deviant Esq (short for esquire) and it's stuck since. I like it, since it's an oxymoron of sorts. A classy deviant? Happy with that title. :Punk:

[Sniper]

It was my "trade" back a few years ago.

[Pillick]

I was too much of a pillock to spell pillock properly....

[nadroj]

I just happen to know someone called niveK nadroJ.

[KLOWN]

YAY, counterstrike, that game was addictive. i was KILLER KLOWN when I played cs

[Kornholio]

Lol CS, my name was err Kornholio and my mate was 'Fuckmeat' and I first started out as 'Toolman'

[kro]

I best not explain my name, it is highly offensive to some people. I made it up when I used to play online games, and discovered its origin was less than pleasant. Actually, I might shorten it to Kro.

[WINJA]

mine is a typeo

[Charlie]

My name is Carly; and I was quite the tom boy growing up. My Uncle started calling me Charlie from about age 5, and everyone followed. It kinda stuck.
Again not terribly exciting.

[Korea]

I wanted 'KoreanKiwi' but KB had issues with the Kiwi part (or maybe I was just too inept at the sign-on stage???).
Just went ahead with 'Korea' because I live there... for now.

[Sketchy_Racer]

its my old bike

nothing special

[Maha]

Maha Man....up there with Batman and that other prick that hated green stuff, and i could always see myself riding in a one piece yamaha blue spandex suit with yellow speedo's and cape........:scooter:

[Virago]

Well guess what I ride?

Actually, if you look up Virago you'll find it means "bad-tempered old woman"....<_<

[White trash]

It's my name.

[far queue]

Just a bit of humour. If you really can't figure out what it means, then have a look at the pic in my profile for a clue :finger:

[Slingshot]

It's my name.


No explanation required!!!


White Trash personified:not:

[notme]

Award for the most boring story - to me?

Allun....it's what the parents put on me birth cert.

The spelling means I rarely have to think about usernames for the various sites i frequent.....except the ones where I *want* to hide! :2guns:

[onearmedbandit]

I'm addicted to the pokies.


























Nah lost the use of my left arm in a bike crash 8yrs ago. I don't, as some people have assumed, ride a Bandit.

[deathstar]

For the record, im NOT french

dam...I know some de malmanche's in hawkesbay..... you hav a cuz lance or uncle gary???

[Beemer]

Joined KB when I bought the BMW F650CS and stole the cat's name! We had an old cat called Beemer, so called because when she was younger she was quite tubby and when viewed from the front, her resemblence to a BMW was quite uncanny!

Sold the BMW now, but don't fancy being called Goose. Also, overindulgence over Christmas means I'm starting to look more and more like the cat!

[cowpoos]

It's my name.

its your life....its your potential....its on your fuckin eftpos card for crist sake....and by the way....your brothers think your a ghey homo...

[zadok]

From the Bible. Old testament priest.

[Brian d marge]

Brian d'marge move a few letters around replace the apostrophe and you get .......:crazy:
add a d if you want past tense , but I am sure present tenses apply

Stephen

[cowpoos]

cowpoos

well....its actually my nick name.... most me mates know me as cowpoos or Poo's.... but I got my name coz.... when you milk cows you obviously get shit on ya hands and arms [and some times ya head,shoulder,etc] and most people wash it off every time they can [usually hoses in the milking area of a cowshed] but.... getting wet hands and then dry hands and then wt hands,etc,etc... causes chapped hands...cracks and stuff in your hands that look disgusting and hurt.... but I don't wash my hands all the time... I wash em only at the end of milking....so I have "cowpoos' on my arms and hands for the whole milking.... and then a few work mates just started calling me cowpoos....and it stuck..[like poo's...lol]

THE END

[boomer]

Played Unreal Tournament as kAB00m! and over time people changed it Boomer

[The_Dover]

I'm The_Dover cos my first name is Ben and I do a bit of rooting. So I got called Ben Dover which was change to Dover, then The_Dover courtesy of my old work mates.

I used to have a zippo with it engraved on it but I lost it at the whorehouse.

[cowpoos]

Played Unreal Tournament as kAB00m! and over time people changed it Boomer

[Teflon]

Growing up i idolized John Gotti, so i've always used Teflon as a screen name.

[Dadpole]

My son's nickname since birth has been Tadpole, so he called me.......

[wybmadiity]

Will you buy me a drink if i tell you? :shifty:

[ZeroIndex]

hmmm.... pure randomnesque i guess :p it started out as Zero (Smashing Pumpkins song, etc (but with some of those freaky ASCII characters, as computer freaks, i mean "people like myself", tend to have in their names :p ). and one day i decided it needed something more in it, went through the dictionary and Index seemed to fit well at the end :) hence ZeroIndex

[Clockwork]

Easy to wind up

[dawnrazor]

Well I am hell spawn and cut a swathe through the dawn of a new epoch.

[dawnrazor]

Well no actually, couldn't think of anything I liked, when the song title of a dodgy 90's goth band popped into my head. The band "fields of the nephilium" the song "dawnrazor".
Thought why the heck not, use it all the time now for the net.

For the record my dodgy 90's goth stage is behind me, I just liked the sound of it.

Right I'm off to paint me fingernails black.

[Motoracer]

Since I am such a wiz with motors, my name is Motor Acer.

Actually it's Moto Racer and the reason behind that is pretty self explanatory.

[miSTa]

Nothing to explain - no imagination :doh:

[Uncle B]

I used to be VTWIN but I sold it, the twin that is, and needed to upgrade my name too, so as some of the Welly crew were already calling me Uncle Bruce......dunnoh why, it may be to do with the grey beard I have, so I asked Spank to change me to Uncle B and Ta Da.

It has aged me......I'm not that old, only in the mornings.

[Highlander]

Highlanders supporter in a cheifs area.
I'm a Mainlander at heart.

[skelstar]

Mine is young-at-heart-NOT younger tart!

[Jamezo]

I recieved my moniker in a vivid dream I had once; Professor Oak descended from the clouds on the wings of a Zapdos, and knighted me with his Pokedex.

From that day forward, I was known as Sir Arthur Bigglesworth of the BDOTGNZA. OH NOES MY SEC-RET IS OUT>

[Smokin]

I owned a GSXR 750 and had this really expensive habbit of Smokin the rear tyre up, Marrage and kids kind of destroyed any form of disposable income I used to have so alas the Smokin had to stop :(

[Virago]

Mine is young-at-heart-NOT younger tart!
On behalf of those of us who read it wrong - Oops, sorry! :rofl:

[Highlander]

Yup. :drinkup:

[Beemer]

Highlanders supporter in a cheifs area.
I'm a Mainlander at heart.

Damn, ruined the illusion, I thought it was from the Highlander movie!

Hey, Tim, know any good aborists up this way? We need some advice on trimming our trees to keep them healthy, plus we have a few "cough" neighbouring trees that will be getting a drastic 'trim' when the owners sell up!

[yungatart]

On behalf of those of us who read it wrong - Oops, sorry! :rofl:
All is forgiven, I'm so stoopid I never even realised that it could be read any other way-until G4E told me.... oh the shame...:weep:

(I also like being licked like an iceblock)

[Virago]

All is forgiven, I'm so stoopid I never even realised that it could be read any other way-until G4E told me.... oh the shame...:weep:
That reminds me of a Personalised Plate that was seen around Dunedin for a while - "1MADV8", reading as "One Mad V8". However, it could be read as "I am a deviate".:blink:

[stunz]

[sugilite]

Sugilite is a type of rock. (more Gem stone as it is sold both by the gram and carat)
It was discovered by professor Suga from Japan in the late 1940's.
I have probably the largest highest grade natural unworked piece in NZ.
There is a photo of it on my profile. Bet your sorry you asked now eh :rolleyes:

If I didn’t have a bike I would start importing guns and selling slaves as a hobby, we all need our vices!

"Flying" in Indonesian language.. Worked in Indonesia for a while (flying a charter aircraft for oil companies) and the local crew that I was working with called me that so I sort of keep it now to remind me of the good times/people from there.

[Keystone19]

I worked in a risk management/ski patrolling job up in the USA at a resort called Keystone. My call sign was Keystone19.

Sure I have answered one of these threads before, but i'll do it again.

I figured kbr would be full of old farts who didn't understand anything but normal names, so stuck with the same naming convention that other people on this site from my old school did. Rather than use my e-name/handle that most of my mates know.

It will be changing soon when I revamp the bike... :msn-wink:

[wybmadiity]

Hell Ill buy you a drink if you can pronounce it for me :cry:

Hmmm, Okay sounds good, I'm sure i can do that. ;)

[Lazy7]

being relatively niave when it comes to the bike community - i hope i dont get shot down for saying this...

but - i frequent a lot of "performance car forums" and drive a V6 Twin Turbo so my Nick on those forums is Lazy6 - a play on the idea that a V6 twin turbo is anything but lazy...

and now i am here, and looking at picking up a ZX7R soon, Lazy7 seemed to fit.

[ManDownUnder]

Mine's suggestive and fun and a play on the fact I'm in NZ...

[Wolf]

Mine's what pagans usually call a "craftname" - the name by which I am known within the pagan community. To some people I am better known by that name than by "Jon".

Usually the forums etc I've accessed already have a "Wolf" and I have to add numbers to it (so I usually choose numbers that have significance to me rather than the "That name is taken, you can have "Wolf27" if you like..."

I was quite surprised that "Wolf" was available on KB without any qualifiers or numbers, was quite prepared to have to add a number.

I'd explain why I chose "Wolf" as my craftname but that would entail another epic 1.8Gb post that would upset those on dial-up...

Okay....always thought Craftname was linked to Witchhood but I will go with you to avoid 1.8MgB's..........

[Colapop]

Is that like "Charmed" coz they're hot and you'd be one lucky Warlock(?) or is it Druid? It's all about earth and nature kinda isn't it?

[*sic]

mine:.

Sic is a Latin word meaning "thus" or "so", used inside brackets [sic] to indicate that an unusual (or incorrect) spelling, phrase, or other preceding quoted material is intended to be read or printed exactly as shown and is not a transcription error.

This may be used either to show that an uncommon or archaic usage is reported faithfully (for instance, quoting the U.S. Constitution, "The House of Representatives shall chuse [sic] their Speaker...") or to highlight an error, often for purposes of ridicule or irony (for instance, "Dan Quayle famously miscorrected a student's spelling to 'potatoe' [sic]").

In folk etymology, "sic" is sometimes mistakenly assumed to be an abbreviation of "spelled incorrectly", "spelling is correct", or even "sorry, incorrect".

I however added the * to the front as there was another name that was originally in front that was spaced with the *.. i cut the front bit off and left the *..

anyways, yea thats it.

[Wolf]

Okay....always thought Craftname was linked to Witchhood but I will go with you to avoid 1.8MgB's..........
"Craftname" is predominently used within "The Craft" (witchcraft/Wicca) but I use it for want of another reasonably understandable term. "Religious name" sounds a tad pompous. Not used to hide behind, just more appropriate for ritual than "Jon" ("God is Gracious" which, for a polytheistic pagan, begs the question "which God?")

[Str8 Jacket]

All may mates tell me that im crazy......

[Wolf]

All may mates tell me that im crazy......
Honesty's an important quality in friends...

My ex-workemates gave it to me 'cos of my eloquence, manners and sophisticated dashing good looks!!!:whistle:

I've always had some affiliation with the phoenix. I've got a tattoo of one on my chest, (favourite element is fire, favourite animal is eagle).

The gtr part just came from cars (sorry). It fit and it sounded cool so I've stuck with it ever since

[TraD_MaN]

Cheers colapop. Just a small one this year

[Colapop]

No doubt still got a hangover from last year. Never understood what's so special about 21? Have a good 'un anyway.

"It" is parts of your body that can no longer overcome the effects of gravity- they start to droop and sag-hence "down hill":hitcher: :doobey:

[nadroj]

My days of love are over
My torch of life is out
What used to be my sex appeal
Is now my water spout
Time was when of It's own accord
would from my trousers spring
but now I have a full time job
to find the bloody thing
It used to be embarasing
the way it would behave
From early in the morning
it stood and watched me shave
But as old age approaches
it sure gives me the blues
to see it hang it's withered head
and watch me clean my shoes.

[WINJA]

"Hitcher" is Romanian for "pedantic proofreader". Fear my apostrophe...

A bike club gave me the name moocher, as I can be quite laid back. It got shortened to mooch over time.

In case anyone was wondering (which I doubt very much) here is my story about how I chose my KB name:
Went on my first ride with Jim2 and some of his mates including Mangell6, Mooch, Snuffles - this was a couple or three years ago, the group later became loosely known as the "SCMCC", but that is another story!
Anyhoo........... on the way back from that ride back from over the Wairarapa we passed by the Rimutaka Summit without stopping and LB later posted something like: "I was up the top of the Tuks and saw Jim2, Mangell6, Mooch, Snuffles, et al pass through". So I thought that means I must be "et al" then - and I promptly joined up as such.
My name therefore is nothing to do with me having an ETALian bike, I am totally nothing to do with the "artist" group known as et al, or the reverse of the word: late, or any other connotations there-of.
There you have it, and thanks for asking.

[Virago]

Is that shawda as in "he threw his pack over his shawda and walked off"?
Only in Glasgow.....

[Slingshot]

Ithe group later became loosely known as the "SCMCC", but that is another story!

Do tell!!


I always though your handle must have meant "and others" and I guess based on LB's post, I was right.

[et al]

Damn - here was me thinking I was a man of mystery and you had figured it out anyway. As for the "clubname" - the thread and picture which would explain it all appear to have been lost in the fullness of time but it was to do with a picture taken of our bikes outside an establishment roughly opposite the Wild Oats in Carterton. It was the local Senior Citizens club and none of us were too happy when someone noted the appropriate building signage had appeared in the picture.
PS 100 posts not out!

[R6_kid]

my name is gareth and my last name starts with d.

i was in class at the time i joined up so i didnt have much imagination going on...

have thought about changing it though, but everyone knows me as gareth_d now so that would just be confusing :wacko:

[Mooch]

Was that the day that Snuffles destroyed a couple of rims trying to keep up with us old farts? Next time we’ll take his wife with us instead, I hear she’s a far better rider.
Well done on 100 posts!

Thanks Mooch. Not quite sure (mists of time and all that getting the better of me) but I think the "square wheels" incident might have been on the second ride for SCMCC. Agree that young Snuffles is a bit of a worry, you are quite right to suggest he probably should not be let out on his own with us anymore.

[thealmightytaco]

Back in high school, 6th form, some challenge was put forth and no one was doin' it, I forget what it was but someone nominated me to take it on, saying I could do it and I said "yes, for I am, the almighty taco." And used it ever since.

[yevjenko]

Mine was a corruption of my surname that was given to me by a friend far cooler than me.

[janno]

My nic is highly classified information, only known to members of the Jan O'Connor secret squirrel masonic lodge, a highly secret select group of . . .

What??

Oh. Bugger.

[crash harry]

Mine comes from what my dad used to call me as a kid whenever I crashed anything (bikes, mini-motorbikes, gocarts, 4-wheelers, skateboards, cars, you name it I've crashed 'em all).

I started using it when I joined the JDM CBR forum as a result of buying a CBR250 to replace the ZZR250 that I'd just written off...

I don't know where "Harry" comes from, that's just what he used to call me.

[Rhino]

My nick was givern to me by Scorpygirl about 10 years ago. We were at the movies watching the Robin Williams movie "Jumanji".

There is a scene where a whole herd of African animals appear stampeding down the road while a car is waiting at an interesection. They all go past and then, lagging way behind, is a very old and slow Rhino. She looked at me and said "It's just like you, old, grey and behind the 8 ball.":gob:

After all that I still married her.:scratch:

I use this nick in both Ulysses and KB.

And you all thought is was to do with a large horn.:whistle:

[oldrider]

I was just looking for old biker friends that might be on the net and stumbled my way onto this site.
Didn't know what to do to get on here so just called myself oldrider and it went through.
I didn't think I would be on here for long but just sort of kept coming back and found out I liked it.
I feel like I belong now and have actually met some of you, so I am going to stay.
I think I might be one of the oldest on here! :yeah: So it fits me OK. :niceone: Cheers John.

Yeah, except for Ixion but not even that Roman Centurion who was cursed to wander the World until Christ's Second Coming is as old as Ixion...

[oldrider]

Yeah, except for Ixion but not even that Roman Centurion who was cursed to wander the World until Christ's Second Coming is as old as Ixion...
How do you know I am not that Roman Centurion just moving with the times and riding a bike? Has Ixion got a Roman accent too?
Maybe we should be riding "Italian" bikes! I might get a Moto Guzzi next! :blip: John.

[buellbabe]

Well my handle is just a nickname given to me by some Yanks I met and partied with last year... it doesn't mean I fancy myself!:devil2:
I also contribute to a Buell site in the States and on that one I'm "d'bitch"...
I like this incognito stuff, he he he

[Wolf]

Has Ixion got a Roman accent too?
Nah, his original language eventually evolved into Sanskrit...

[GN1NiteStnd]

Ok mine is pretty obvious, GN- my first and current bike, and one night stand the last rally i had been to before i joined up to kiwibiker.
At first I joined kiwibiker just to find out about the Motor Cycle Handling skills certificate, and riding out on the road in general. Now its restricted lisence time, any tips?
-I know its abit :Offtopic:

My username is a song by The Manic Street Preachers..:)

women's reaction to me :D

my old "alias" had the word "boo" in it, so hiss kind of matched....

[Leviticus]

Mine was taken from a 1990's D&B gropup called Leviticus, I thought it sounded kinda badass, so I used it as a gamertag. Didn't know then it was one of the books of the old testament. Maybe shoulda stopped using it when I found out, but fuckit

[gammaguy]

i am a guy

i ride a gamma;)

[puddytat]

My surname is the same as "Puddytats " real name........

[Laxi]

mines a nickname that sorta stuck from my boy racer days, short for laxative cause my mates used to recon my driving gave em the shits

[Maha]

Maha Man....up there with Batman and that other prick that hated green stuff, and i could always see myself riding in a one piece yamaha blue spandex suit with yellow speedo's and cape........:scooter:

I dropped the 'Man' bit because I gots me Honda now.....:woohoo:

[thealmightytaco]

This thread is 4 years old. Awesome.

My name comes from back in 6th Form, someone was issued a dare, no idea what it was, they refused to do it and someone said I'd do it instead, and I said "Yes, I will do it, for I am the almighty taco."
It got written all over my pencil case (oh the good ol' days), then a few months later the family got it's first modern pc, it made a nice internet nick for the ol' ICQ and Napster, used it ever since.

[Meanie]

I dropped the 'Man' bit because I gots me Honda now.....:woohoo:

I am pleased you finaly admit that your not a real man, the rest of the honda riders on here aint gonna be happy with you though

[Maha]

I am pleased you finaly admit that your not a real man, the rest of the honda riders on here aint gonna be happy with you though

But Maha Legend sounds worse than gay!

[quickbuck]

Hell,
A bit of a dredge!!!! Great reading though.

Anyhow, my name was actually made up by me when I was joining Tard Me...... So, now I use it for almost every site I join.....
Nothing really fast about me, and my name is not Buck... Although I don't mind if people think it is.

[Kingfish]

My last name is King and my mates think i drink like a fish. So the name stuck as Kingfish.

[Berries]

I suffer from piles.

[cc rider]

my name is so off topic :blink:

cc:ride:

[LBD]

Used to be a fan of Daffy when I was a kid..May still be....He often would refer to himself when in a huff as "this Little Black Duck"........Picked it up as a kid and it kinda stuck

[Genie]

Given to me by my Master from a pic of me after I'd been away on a girls weekend and we all dressed up, I went as Genie.

[Big Col]

All obvious when you meet me,[ No imagination I guess.]

[Mom]

I was encouraged to join KB by a member that no longer posts here called Zed. He said KB needed a Mother. I am Canadian and Mother is Mom in my house. So here I am.

[The Baron]

About twenty years ago I used to drive from Wgtn to Auckland every three weeks for work. I often stayed with family. I would time the trip to see if I could do it in a shorter time and was known by the Auckland family as The Baron because of this. Speed/flying. One trip I arrived in Auckland with the words "The Baron" on the drivers door. It has been on many of my work vehicles over the years and one motorcycle, a red honda shadow. I often think of putting it on my BMW's - German flying machine- red Baron - who knows?
I don't have it on any vehicles now but my wife to this day has "The Baroness" on her cars.

[Tink]

Because I thought my other nic would be just wrong wildchild, so I like rockets "born with a bang" on guy fawkes, 1968.

[Hawkeye]

My avater say's it all. Been a fan for years.

[p.dath]

Well my name is, my name! First letter of first name, followed by my surname.

[MSTRS]

I called my bike The Mistress. The vowels and that second s just seemed superfluous...

[3umph]

quite simple really but many ask

3=tri and the rest is what I ride

3umph short for triumph

[Bald Eagle]

Well it's the nickname my youngest daughter gave me, loosley based on the character seen occassionally on Sesame St

[peasea]

The site wouldn't allow me to use my initials, pc, as two letters is not enough, so I just expanded on them.

I've been called pc since I was a kid because there were other Peters in my class and it was easier to identify each of us by initials. There was a PS (which we often referred to as 'afterthought'), a PJ (or sometimes 'jimjams'), a PG ('cuppa') and me, pc, and I often copped pea soup.

Ahh, memories.

I've always been called something Graham so it was easy I guess.

[KiWiP]

Nickname coined by my Bro in law when I came across here (P is initial of firstname). My twin nieces sang it together a lot in a delightful wayso that I think about them when I see it. So it cheers me which is good. But probably annoys real Kiwis as I'm a pom claiming a Kiwi title, which is also good :bleh:

[Jackal]

I have lived in many towns and had a different nick name in each one. Every time I moved I like to change my name. I need to stay one step ahead of my enemies and at least three steps ahead of friends and family!! I used Jackal when I joined KB cause I had'nt been given a nick name yet in my new town. It is what I ride. So until I get given another nick name, or I get tracked down again, Jackal it is!
