Mine is a pretty lame story but here goes:

No, it has nothing to do with the cult TV show "Fame" tho I used to watch it long time ago...
My friends were just discussing how choosing the right name is an important step if you reach out for fame.
So one made a stupid comment "what if your name IS fame?"...a little more bla bla and I ended up as Fame.
I know,I know, its the most stupid story you heard in your life but thats just what happened - and we were 9 years old, so please
The rest is history, everyone calls me Fame in real life up to this very day,and I mean EVERYONE-even the guy in the supermarket!
Hell...even the TEACHERS in school used to call me Fame, I kid you not!

So anyway, what about you?
Explain your Username...

P.S - DE NIRO - you're excused

(Unless you want to explain why its all in capital )

When i joined i didn't relise you couldn't change your Name,i put them all in capitals for some reason and "Thats That"

I chose Don_Andrew because, I guess I like being called "Don" (who doesn't want that kind of power?) And Andrew because well, my name is Andrew.

I hate mine. I was originally The Jackal but changed it before 100 posts (meaning about four hours after I joined)

I changed it to Don Vercetti because of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. I would change it in a heartbeat if people weren't used to the name.

Mine is how I sign up everywhere if possible. I try to keep it simple so I wouldn't have to write it down for every single site I sign up. Afsaneh is my real name. 77 is the year I was born.

I hate my username. I kept the one I had from the IMDb boards, but it's so damned long! Basically, the main idea behind it was, IMO, Don Corleone (both Vito and Michael) are my favorite film characters of all time, and IMO, Michael is the best, and most complex character of all time. The "xXx" on each side signified one of my least favorite characters of all time (that being...uh...xXx). Basically, out of every great, deep film character you get, there's always at least 2 (or 1000) more characters that are just stupid. Um, then again, maybe I just like the way "xXx" looks when typed, who knows?

My name, angie ( Angelica), the first letter of my last name Z and my age.

My name. Angela is my first name, Marie is actually my sister's middle name - I don't like my real middle name.... and it makes me feel a little more anonymous.

Mine is pretty simple. Its just my last name...

My name is Letizia. But my last name starts with an M and not a B. The B came from high school... one of my teachers pinned it on me.

We were studying Napoleon Bonaparte, and his mother's name was Letizia. So after that, my teacher would always call me Letizia Bonaparte, and it stuck.

He even moved my name up in the roll sheet and used to call "Bonaparte?" during attendance. And I had that teacher for two other classes as well, and he'd still call me that without explaining why... so other people started thinking that it was my real last name, and pretty much everyone else at school used to call me that, too. :rolleyes:

DonFerro55.

Don because I love The Godfather.

Ferro because it's my name.

55? because I figured DonFerro was taken.


I wish more than anything I had put DoctorFerro, kinda like Vercetti. I knew after I started that the whole "Don" thing was lame for me, so I just started calling myself "The Doc" a little later. People still address me as DonFerro, but I prefer Doc. I don't really care, but wish I was not "Don"Ferro.

I think people know the "Doc" thing more a lot more than the "Don" thing with me though, which is good.

The Doc

I think u mean Vice City, but your forgiven.

Mine is pretty original seeing as it is my name.

I think u mean Vice City, but your forgiven. [/b][/quote]Ugh, I'm thinking of that name too much.

MaryCas is psuedonym of course. I was not internet savvy when I joined the Gangster BB; my first and only internet affiliation (are there others?? ). I chose MaryCas to be unidentifiable and untraceable. I didn't want any identity theft or internet stalkers (paranoid you say?). I figured using a feminie name would really throw people off. I originally used the Mama Corleone avatar. In the beginning of my membership I made sure to make my response non-gender specific. It became a game to see if people responded to me as if I was a female. There were a few. plaw asked me out on a date and Geoff wanted to know my measurements (only kidding). Soon I realized that the board and the internet were "safe". Then I revealed my identity, changed my avatar (not a self portrait), and even posted some pictures. A long explanation, but MaryCas is my mother in law.

That makes two of us. :p

MaryCas, I thought you were a female forever.

No, only for the last 10 years or so...

Money is one of God's greatest gifts to us humans. We need it much more than love, our family, and our close friends. But money is something we always need. That's why we have to use different methods to obtain the green paper that breaks up relationships and makes us kill our sisters and children. We need to get money.....fast! or else we die. I wish there was a beautiful 28 year old woman made out of money. Sure she would have been in everyone's pockets at least once of twice, and had more coke poured on her than a plane flying from a coca field in Medellin. But no matter where she had been, I would still love her, because she is young, attractive, and loving in generosity.

And that's why I mob for money.

No, only for the last 10 years or so... [/b][/quote]

Same here...I didn't know how to refer to you...

As for mine, my name is Gina, I'm (1/2) Italian, and I'm a girl. I sort of wish I had just used "Gina," but it's alright.

Mine is this

Johnny -cause my name is john

and Stiltz cause I really am 7ft1 inches tall

so thats what i came up with

Well I came across this BB just after watching a documentary about Richard "The Iceman" Kuklinski. And I figured that would be a cool(no pun intended )name.

Tony B. That's me. When I was a kid, my neighborhood friends would stand on the sidewalk and yell at the house, "Yo Tony...wanna come out and play?!" YoTonyB just became an easy screen name to remember and use.

tony b.

Marienjo
Marinus
Floors

My initials of my full name.

I named myself after David Hasselhof. And then I tattood his face over my chest.

Well that explains it all!

I chose mine because "Turnbull is a good man..."

I decided on AppleOnYa because of it's similarity to a prominent character in The Godfather .... Luca Brasi.

Apple

Fellini film that is one of the first movies I recall seeing on the big screen (at the drive in ) when I was very young.

Also, the day I registered on this site, I happened to be rummaging through my purse which was of the La Dolce Vita line and saw the brand tag inside.

Thought that summed up everything about my being - lucky and grateful for everything I have, everything I own, everything I am.

The Sweet Life.
