Belouve Family Name - Origins

Ulic Belouve
Many people have asked me where the Belouve name came from, since I have a family of 6 total Belouves, and more people wanting to "be" a Belouve.

As for the origin of the name, it was derived from the Beoulve name. I actually MEANT to use Beoulve, many years ago. I chose a Knightly name for myself, so that in terms of filling out stuff online, I would have a false persona, instead
of using my real name. I chose Ulic, from Ulic Qel-Droma, the Jedi Knight. The Belouve was meant to be Beoulve, a character from a Final Fantasy game, Ramza Beoulve, who was a member of a powerful family, and defied the king, the church,
his friends, to stand up for what was right (they were all corrupted by an evil, and he fought to preserve what was RIGHT.)

So that's the origin of the name. I misspelled it, and it took on a whole NEW family name. I am actually trying to get a custom-made sword with "BELOUVE" enscribed on the hilt, much as powerful warrior families/clans would have the clan name enscribed on their swords, more in the Celtic era than anything.

Also, I found that there is a Forest of Belouve in France. Real beautiful forest, you can see pictures on the web. I might drop by there someday if I go to Paris (which I can 'cuz I can write my own tickets. Dad an airline pilot).

But what is a Belouve? I haven't really put my finger on it yet, but we're loyal to whatever inner tuth there is. Each person has that strength and wonder deep down that we must see and respect. Each one of us was born the same, born just as good as the other person. Deep down, all that strength is there somewhere. We work as a family to reach in and have others discover what is at their core. We are all students together. though I am the head of the family, we have sort of an older brother/younger brother situation. And I have grandpaddies!

But, this should clear up people asking the origin of the name.

Right now I have the idea of the sword handle being of a green marble design, as well as part of the sword blade being tinted emerald green.

I'll work on getting an image scanned in. I'm sure I can do it through one of the campus labs.

Hey Ulic, if you actually DO get the desire to have an actual sword, I have a link somewhere to a canadian shop that makes swords. You could actually get it made. Thought I believe it's kinda expensive.

Nah, Hector is only a 10 minute walk from my computer. I know him better than any of you all, and he couldn't outcool anyone. Even DJ Sith is cooler than him.


And Hector knows I'm just razzing him. But we worked together on the concept of creating a sword. We saw a guy with his own custom-made sword. We can both vouch for how sweet that thing was.

I agree that MAKING one would be better, but probably will not happen for a long time. Maybe you guys can make one for me...if there's ever an occasion that warrants such a gift. I'd say it'd make a good wedding present, but it looks like I'd have better luck waiting for Hector to outcool me than waiting for me to get hitched.

Eh, oh well.

Only one day away from Singles Awareness Day!!! Yippee!!! I like the day now that I'm 21. I can drink enough to make me think that I have a girlfriend. And I don't have to buy her a gift!

Hey all...

I hope we ended the African-American discussions, as I really don't want anyone to get ticked off. And I think we have let the thought run its course, not to mention straying off-topic.

As for the sword, if I get a conceptual sketch done, I will post it somewhere. But I'm not looking to have an actual sword made for a while. I may just purchase a sword that CAN be engraved like that, and have someone just put BELOUVE on it, instead of having them make the entire sword.

That way other Belouves can get a similar sword if they desire.

Ok I’ll admit that I’m prejudice against people from Austria that outpost me:D

On the other hand, you will never have more comments in your profile than me. And putting comments in your own profile doesn’t count.

I’m just teasing you fizz because I am so jealous. I love you man. Now give me an /amkiss

I have to admit I am a little prejudice… against non-Belouves.

J/K

I once had a teacher who said that she was only prejudice against prejudice people. I thought that kinda’ defeated the purpose though.

lol ash. this thread is meant to be serious ;)

yeah I was living next to a black guy for several years, he didn't mind anyone calling him a nigger. Guess we didn't have things like the KKK here, and we do have lots of ppl from the near east here.
tolerance is the word ;)

Boy, Fizz!

No prob with me, but bro, it's a good thing you across the Atlantic with that language.

I have some friends of various colours that would fight you over that word.

However, it's funny how black people use that word commonly and it's considered just clean fun. We live in a world of various standards. People are so crazy.

Later,

D.C. :cool:

yo. same w/ handicapped -> physically challenged....

when I was little I have always used "Nigger" in common sense for black people (I hope I can say that by now whilst being non offensive) but since other ppl feel picked on, u now have to use other words. U can overdo that, imho.

Baba Oje of Arrested Development summed it all up in 1993:
"....I've been called (....) nigger, negro, black american, black-afro-american, african-america, and now I am african...."

Thx, Vaughn!

Ioshee, Ioshee, Ioshee. To a **seeing impaired individual**, KKC and KKK are the same thing. Can you tell me why? Spelling is irrelavent.

Wow, this is fun, our posts go the extra mile.

To all the Belouves (and Vaughn), I love ya!

D.C. :cool:

**Edit: the word "blind" was changed to "seeing impaired" and "man" was changed to "individual", to be completely non-offensive.**

ok. first, i have to say this to Ulic.
"Just to curb a Vaughn reponse:
It is impossible to be MORE equal (hence it is a joke.)
And, there cannot BE a BIGGER half, else it is not really half. (I pull that all the time with my dad when we cut something in half "I get the bigger half!" "Quiet, you!";) "

HEY! No FAIR!!! :mad:
but, on the plus side, you now know me better (you can see potential posts that i may make before I see them :P)

second thing. DCB, after i read what you said, then looked at your profile pic, i was laughing for about a minute. Nicely worded (I never thought i would LIKE to be calling a white man Master).

Belouve dictatorship? Naw. Belouve award? maybe. Belouve family? Of course. Ulic, what you should do, is take a picture of your sword, and send it to all the Belouves, and their desktops should be that picture, or atleast have it somewhere in their room.

LoL @ Derilict. The Belouves can be hard to take all at once.

And Damon it's not KKC it's KKK. HUGE difference:D

It's like Mortal Kombat has nothing to do with mortal combat.

I also liked the sound of "Heart of Ramza" from a post below (Blade Knight).

So, I am making a knock-off of the Doobie Award...
The "Heart of Ramza".

I'm meaning for it to be given humorously for anything that falls under Belouve traits.

Like the first goes to JumpinJedi for his honesty in the statement:
"The only thing royal about anything in the JA is me - the fact that i'm a royal asshole ! :D "

It takes a big man to admit they are an asshole. For that, I award you the Heart of Ramza.

Hmm...Heart of Ramza....Iron Cross...
That makes the Belouve dictatorship too obvious, doesn't it? lol.

Edit. oh, by the way, I was referring to the general JK2 community and the existence of various online clans, not the JA community which is clearly not a clan. And certainly not the Belouve family, because we know that that is a dictatorship. LOL.
