My first online nickname was Beast, and I went under that nickname for quite a while.

Then a few years ago, I switched to zeroSignal, which comes from Fear Factory's Zero Signal track.

Nothing exciting really.

My first nick on FG was CSL and at that time I really liked the M3 CSL so I named it after that.

My current nick is formed on the basis of the LeMans 24hr race and the Mclaren F1 GTR

Mix them together and you get LeMans GTR

Wellsie is my real life nickname, and working for tojo, I thought TRD sounded cool.

So there you go

I came up with essentialatom several years ago when I wanted a good online handle. I didn't want Mike because someone would have it and I'd end up hainvg to be Mike_557. I picked essentialatom partly because I figured nobody would want to be essentialatom_2, and partly because I was a science dweeb at the time.

AND PROUD

Heh, I was just thinking of starting a thread like this last night.

My first name is Lev but back when I first started playing online games I made my name Levee. For some reason a few people started calling me Level and I kinda liked it... so it's been my name ever since. Not sure how the capitalization of the V and the second L came about... probably something about the name being the same when read backwards.

It is my real-life nickname.

My first name is Jamal so people would call me Mally or MallyMal. The Dangerous part got associated with me after a night of "spirited" driving back in 1995. After that night dudes started calling me Mally Dangerous or Mally D.

I learnt Basic, Fortran IV, Algol(e) and ANSI Cobol 74 as my first programming languages.

Anyway always had a soft spot for the ANSI Cobol 1974 standard version of Cobol, verbose but fun in a long winded sort of a way.
