Ok I think the title explains it all. :) Aiddat is Taddia as in Nick Taddia backwards. A lot of you probably know that already 'cause my name is on my profile.

PS: If nobody minds, since new members should post here, may I or somebody else bump this every month or so?

I always thought a vruka was a kind of pimple Gamorreans get on their feet, ha! :P

And yes, one of my brothers first words (not the first but an early one) was "Oompla-Loompa", he said it as "Mmha-Mmha" first.

Well when i became Jaiko's paddy i went looking for a new name, it took quite some time, and some people might remember me going through a couple before i settled on this :P

Alexander is Greek in origin, meaning 'Defender of man' or 'Protector' 'Keeper of the peace' etc. One of the well known Alexander's of history was, Alexander the Great, of Macedonia, who conquered much of that region of the world. :)

Its also my middle name, so i decided upon using it as my JA name in the end. Obviously you all know where the D'Kana comes from ;)

While playing Warcraft 3, I glanced at what the players were chatting about and thought someone said Doctor Elvis. They didn't but I thought it was a cool name so I went to make a new battle.net account as Doctor-Elvis but at the last moment I upgraded it to Alvis from that episode of Sealab 2021.

Well, one day I went to this random homing pigeon forum when I was 11 or so, and I wanted a cool name, so I made it from the first two letters of three things that were very important to me at the time. And the name stuck... long enough for me to reach my Jedi Knight series days..

Full Metal Alchemist and Full Metal Panic FTW!

But its actually alot deeper. Belive it or not I have friends who call me Fullmetal IRL. I figured what started as a jest between friends was a rather suiting gunner name.

As for the 8th sin, that came about from my facination with the homunculus in FMA. The main ones are all named after the 7 deadly sins. Rather than use the name of the sin, another ctfer inspired me to use the number and well since the 7th was already taken by this ctfer I chose to be the 8th sin, granting my self a bit of originality rather than choosing something existing.

Hmmm, not an adaptation it 'twas the first name that came into my head when I played the original black and white and had to name my creature. I liked the name and used it since. When I joined the JA and became a belouve of course it changed a bit, got a nice ring to it "Jarhok Belouve" yeh I like that :D

I get my JA name from a character from Lewis Caroll's Alice In Wonderland, who was also called The Cheshire Cat.

A lot of mystery surrounds him in the book, and i thought it would be a good name to use as my character is also supposed to be a bit mysterious.

The Cheshire Cat is not my characters 'real' name, it is more a pseudonym; i might change to a different name sometime.
