what is the story behind your nickname?
September 14, 2006 - 03:16 PM

Hello all...what is the story behind your nicknames? nosey i know but i saw a lot of nick names here and some of them are wierd, or things that really i dont think about when it comes to making a nickname, or simple but i always wondered why?

for example my nickname here froot!

I took it from a juice bottle was beside me when i made my proflie , i didt want to think and i was in a hurry so i took it, i didnt even like the juice * so what is the reason behind yours?! plzzzz

oh one more thing, in the discussion board i didnt know under what category should i put this thread why isnt there one just for fun or stupid threads like mine!

Hey froot,

Assalamu aleikom!

It's not necessary that the names some of us show here on TIG are the true nicknames used by people whom they know to call them.

For example, my username here is aymanelhakea, it's just my name and family name.

But in real life, I have been called with a kaleidoscope of nicknames throughout my life.

Mino, Ems, Monti, are derivation of Ayman in Egyptian slang Arabic.

My display name الوعد الصادق
is not a nickname, it's just means: The Trustworthy Promise.

السلام عليكم

اشكر الاخت هبة على هذا السؤال

DNA99
ارغب ان اكتب وجه نظر بعض الاصدقاء من هذا الرمز وجوابي لهم :

1- DNA هو اختصار لاسمك الثلاثي............. قلت لهم نعم انه رمز لاسمي الثلاثي وهو ضياء ناجي العلي وهذا يعني اني احد اطفال ناجي العلي وهذا يعني ايضا اني احمل بعضا من افكاره واحب فلسطين والرسم مثله تماما واسعى الى ما كان يسعى

2-DNA هو رمز الحمض النووي المختص بنقل الجينات الوراثية ................ قلت لهم نعم انه مختص بنقل الجينات الوراثية ولكنه ليس حمضا نوويا وليست جينات تنتقل عن طريق تلقيح الحيوان المنوي للبويضة وانما عن طريق الكتب والثقافة والعلم التي يورثها الكاتب او العالم للجيل اللاحق فتتولد فيه الافكار والطموحات ناجي العلي من اهم الكٌتاب الذين اثروا بي .

3-DNA هو اختصار لك ولحبيبتك.............................. قلت لهم نعم انا احب حبيبتي وافديها بحياتي وهي فلسطين

4- DNA 99 وهو التاريخ الذي كان فيه محور حياتي

طبعا لكل احد منكم ...هدف... يسعى اليه
لذا اقدم نصيحة للجميع ان يضع هدفه امامه عن طريق اسم او رمز او شعار ويلصقه بمكان يستطيع رؤيته كل يوم ...............

سلام
DNA99

Members are asked to please use English on the English boards. If you prefer to use another language like Arabic, it's easy to access the boards, just click the appropriate link at the top of the discussion boards page (or use the language drop down language menu at the top of the site to use another language interface).

I'm sure the Arabic boards would love to welcome new members!

OK, I hope the following translation makes sense b/c it was done by Google:

الاعضاء : الرجاء استخدام اللغه الانكليزيه في المجلس. اذا كنت تفضل استخدام لغه اخري مثل العربيه ، والذي يسهل الوصول الي المجلس ، الذي اكد في المناسبه لربط في صداره الدوري مناقشه المجالس صفحه (او استخدام لغه الدراسه علي لغه قاءمه علي صداره الدوري الموقع الي استخدام لغه اخري بينيه). وانا علي يقين ان الحب المجالس العربيه الي الترحيب بالاعضاء الجدد! يرجي عذر والترجمه ، وانا باستخدام قاعده!

My nickname 'Rerenga' means 'flight' in Maori. So I'm 'taking flight, taking it global' here on TIG!

I also consider it to be the shorter version of 'Rerengatahi' which can be broken up like this:

'Rere-ngatahi' - Fly together
'Rerenga-tahi' - Flight alone / One flight

So, depending on what kind of thinking-mood I'm in is what the meaning behind my nickname means.

- Rerenga

I think the stories are much the same for most people. Some stupid, some weird and some, well... just a name in haste.
I was looking for a way to shorten my full name, which is MOhammed ALEEyu PAIKO without loosing any of the three completely for my email ID. So, I took bits and pieces from the three names as shown in capitals and came up with MOLEEPAIKO, simple. Stupid, some may think but hey,I like it!
