Name change

I have been asked by someone to explain Itzpapalotl and the name change. Basically it is the name of an Aztec goddess. Here's an explanation of what she signifies.
Really I just finished reading The Obsidian Butterfly by Laurell Hamilton and just fancied a trashy reference for a while.

Any other names anyone cares to explain while we're at it?

Tuna Ghost: Pratt knot hero

18:07 / 15.09.02

I stole mine from another Johnny.

19:10 / 15.09.02

I'm tall, thin and heterosexual and fancied having a laugh.

19:16 / 15.09.02

I really fancied having a go at the glamorous heroin lifestyle as shown in films such as 'Trainspotting' which show what a cool drug it is, my dealer was deaf and I ended up trying to inject some crappy east-european cars into my arms. Kids! Just say no!

19:30 / 15.09.02

My mum gave me this name after she noticed a birthmark on my bum that looked exactly like it.

19:44 / 15.09.02

Kagemaru is the fabled ninja/revolutionary leading the peasants revolts in feudal Japan.
He was made popular by Sampei Shirato's series "Ninja Bugeicho" and the movie Seiji Ozawa made of that.
Basically a guy revolting against something people like him helped build.

19:54 / 15.09.02

I always thought yours was a Jean Genet reference of sorts, Lada...

We're The Great Old Ones Now

20:27 / 15.09.02

I always feel faintly left out in threads like this.

I use this name because there's something real about it. It's mine, and I inhabit it all the time. No one knows what it actually means except me. And no one ever will.

The Return Of Rothkoid

23:09 / 15.09.02

Well, I'm the Return Of, 'cos I came back, see. Returned, if you will. And Rothkoid? That explains why I'm slightly out of focus and vague, yet startlingly attractive...

*cough*

23:34 / 15.09.02

Trijhaos means "tree that wants to be a squirrel".

At least this week.

00:14 / 16.09.02

Mazarine, the name around which I build all others, is a shade of blue-violet.

Wasabi and sticky rice are two ingredients in sushi, which I would like to eat more often.

00:57 / 16.09.02

I name I sell my services by with a recently added anti-d. 150mg twice a day...but still smoking, still have no appetite, but now without the lows!

07:49 / 16.09.02

... one of my fave LP's chosen at a whim when stuck for a name. Tom cheekily added the "Mr." which I kinda like. However, feel like I could be more original.

09:41 / 16.09.02

The first ii is the number 2, then v = 5, ix = 9.

259. It's a London bus. Not one that goes anywhere near me.

I added the 23 because it seems to be in vogue this season.

09:48 / 16.09.02

I am the living incarnation of Jack Kerouac's Doctor Sax.

11:53 / 16.09.02

Fairly obvious space cadet Bill hating name. I am thinking of changing it to 'Blue Screen of Death' before NT based OSs die out totally.

11:56 / 16.09.02

Shoddy = Shoddy Solutions - solutions for a shoddy planet

Here's my lame theory - on a really simplistic level, lots of the world's problems are caused by people who claim they're better than everybody else, like white supremacists, or people trying to manipulate reality to create perfection (genetic modification, cosmetic surgery). So if people were able to tolerate or even celebrate imperfection and accept thet the world is a shoddy place, then we'd have much more chance of all getting along.

23 because of RAWinspiration.

PS:Nick, you know that is the Devil's "name" right?

20:37 / 16.09.02

Here's something odd:
a nick is either a small cut or to steal, that is, an absence.

my name, the name my sainted mother and father gave me upon my birth, is a gift, usually money, from the government or a large organization, that is, a presence.

we must never meet in real life.

22:22 / 16.09.02

OK, if you assign numbers to the alphabet, where 1=A and Z=26, BIZUNTH translates to 29262114208.
All those digits added together is 37. multiply that by the number of letters in BIZUNTH (8, Maths fans) and that makes 296.
Now multiply each of those digits by the successive number and you get 108. 29/08/61 would be my birthday if I was 41. That's why I chose it.

Now, you see, you people worry me.

"iszabelle" is just the latest variant in a long line of pseudonyms. It mutated from from a screen name that I've used off and on since the days of bbs, which was a twist on a persona that I used when I was taking the Society for Creative Anachronisms seriously, and that was adapted from the name of a local eatery and born out of dire necessity to keep people from calling me something truly vile (an unkind reference to my bedpartner at the time)...

15:33 / 17.09.02

I am known, cryptically, as ZoCher because I'm an international superstar known for my gorgeous wigs and surgically enhanced physique.

In order to blend in anonymously on the Barbelith I use this nom de plume to reflect my deep & abiding interest in the Zo school of Buddhism.

Zo is a controversial minor sect which believes that:
1. you reap what you sow (Karma Made Easy)
2. masturbation is meditation for busy people
and
3. Lord Ganesh is an incarnation of the Buddha
(he is just as cuddly but has more tusks and trunk).

I hate marzipan.

18:20 / 17.09.02

but janina, why the raspberry tart?

(marzipan is awful, I agree)

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

19:07 / 17.09.02

"Stoatie" was an old nickname of mine (and used ny me for everyone else as I couldn't be arsed remembering their names) when I worked in a comic shop- he was originally created during a stupid conversation about the sorts of names Biggles' friends had.
Then some Moomins got in, as they have a wont to do, then an online quiz informed me that of various dictators, I was Mao.

19:46 / 17.09.02

I'm Cath and ambi-everything, -guous and -valent in particular, with the exception of -dextrous and -tious.

19:50 / 17.09.02

Paleface was/is the name of my music project. Was trying to find a suitable name, and it seemed appropriate for a white boy who just loves black music.

The current incarnation is a mixture of dodgy hip-hop referencing and fatbeer-loving goodness.

10:36 / 18.09.02

I am a sparky that is dog-like. Throw me a bone, give me a roof to sleep under, take me for walks and I'm a happy sparky.

jUne, a sunshiny month

10:54 / 18.09.02

it's important, he really need help.

as previously wrote in some old thread with the same topic, june is simply a name i used to spray on my differents towns walls, as a bad bad bad graffiti guy. there's at least the 2 first letters of my first name, and with j,u,n,e, i can do typographics plays and stuff that i love to. really. plus, it's a pretty cool month, too.
