Poser forum member question. Not poser but for this forum. Using a new name? Left and returned? Got bored of your identity? What are your othe identeties from the past or present? I see names and think I sometimes know that person under another identity I have been: PheonixRising Anton_Kisiel Akisiel how 'bout you? Who did you used to be?

Well.. I have 2 names I use, but I USE them both so it's not really a matter of used to be :o) I'm ernyoka1 TrekkieGrrrl And some places also Ern Yoka or Ern Sielu Yoka

Hi! I've always been Rendy. Don't read too much into that.

My other online identity is "Morgan )O(" (or morgan32). But I don't post on art-related sites under that ID. Here, I've always been eirian.

I'm Sam Therapy (or SamTherapy if the site doesn't support spaces in the user name) everywhere. I've used the name since my first day on the net.

Coppula eam se non posit acceptera jocularum.

My Store

My Gallery

I use my last name on all business-related sites (and art is a business for me as well as something which I have to do). I'm also known as Shaherazade (a handle given to me on CIS, where I spun off stories for years and years), oft abbreviated to Shah. Another handle given to me was Atilla the Punster after a particularly devastating sweep through the forums. Carolly

This is a topic I have raised myself elsewhere. It's interesting to see how people occasionally need a change of identity. I know one case of someone who posts here who originally used a name containing an obscenity (on another site, natch) and had to clean up his nick when he joined Renderosity. What motivates people to change? It would be interesting to know all the reasons.

I was once known as the Great Destroyer ... but that has little to do with this community.

My other online name (rarely used) is myrm_draconis.

Well, when I joined a Real Life Star Trek club several years ago, I needed a Star Trek name. Since I am supposed (in Star Trek relations) to be bajoran, I chose/made up the name Ern Yoka. At the same time it actually MEANS something else: Yoka was a tag I used in my youth to... er... uhm.. scribble on walls and such.... Like Joker, just very badly spelled. Ern means "The Clever One" in ancient nordic so I thought that would be appropriate GG When I originally joined renderosity, I simply used my, at that time wellestablished web-handle ernyoka. Soon after, I found out I had forgotten the password, and had to make a new one, ernyoka1. But again, this is my Star Trek name and this wasn't a Star Trek site. So I started using TrekkieGrrrl to sign my pics and free stuff and only THEN found out - after about 50 freebies - that it was very confusing with 2 names here. I THINK a lot of people are aware that ernyoka1 and TrekkieGrrrl is the same person, I announce it at any given chance L and if it was possible to migrate all my stuff, including my store, to my TrekkieGrrrl handle here, I would do so this very instance. But I'm ALSO Ern Yoka. I wouldn't like to abandon that name totally. ~Lisbeth (and that's my RL name)

pssst this was only for sites and forums right? not like rpg names or anything?

good lord, Anton! you want me to remember back 3 years? Or is it more now. I am also known as SteelPansy and Vyxyn. But I can't for the life of me remember what my first name here was...

Before there was a Renderosity, before I found Poser, I was known elsewhere by other names. GypsyFlame and Kylandria were the two most common. Then I got tagged with KateTheShrew and have been using that ever since.

"What motivates people to change? It would be interesting to know all the reasons."

A ban? =)

Here I'm Scourge and in my University's network I'm Pihlajis (just an abbreviation of my last name). I played Starcraft a lot a few years ago, and in the game scourges are those annoying little flying alien creatures, that's where I took the nick.

Calypso if the nick is available, Caly or variations if it's not free when I join up.

Thought about a second ID to have two seperate galleries (for photo and Poser), but then I left it as it was. Once thought about a different ID to start all over, but didn't do that too. So I'm still stuck with this ID. I use it on all other 3D sites too. - Well, there is one exception. The question was only about this site, not the Rotica-ID I hope? ;)

el_jefe52 or eljefe52 since the early 80's. The nic was given to me by one of my employees who is Mexican. Jefe is spanish for boss, and 52 is the year I was born. Fishnose, you've got me beat by a couple years. Ah, the good old days of BBS, sure do miss them. grin Robin

Using the last two digits of the year one was born seems to be quite common. For others of us here, it's not something one wishes to advertise!

Well I used to be Zechs here. I was really into Gundam W in the 90s and was still using that name when I discovered Rosity. (Oh the shame) When I got back into Poser around the time P5 came out I decided to switch to a name that was less associated with teenage girls and anime noobs, so I went with Berserga which is the name of a type of combat robot from the anime "Armored trooper VOTOMS" I use it almost everywhere now. I have a seperate handle that I use to post naughty pics... on other sites but I'm not giving that out. :p On a side note I also play online games as Berserga, or sometimes GI Doh! so if you run into somebody with those nicks in a game of UT 2k4 or Battlefield 1942 it's probably me. :D

It's funny actually.. Seems like quite a lot of us posts on the "naughty" site(s) too... Under another name. I DID use another name on Rotica for a while, but at the time where I put up something for sale there, I thought it would be less confusing if people could recognize my name. So I'm TrekkieGrrrl over there as well. there. I said it. L

When I first went online in 1987 I used "Peabody", because friends had often called me that. (After the character of Mr. Peabody in the old Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons... a fair likeness in looks and behavior.) But I quickly noticed that almost every message I posted was an attempt to simplify cluttered logic or eliminate assumptions, so it's been occam or ockham ever since.

I've been BillyGoat since Win95a... Everywhere. Got more technical help with a 'male' nickname in the olden days. But they could always tell I was a gal - most guys do not say 'Oh, what a pretty model', LOL!

so why do people keep changing their names? I can understand if the name is stupid or something but I see a lot of aliases. Maybe people leave and come back?

I've been Lunaseas for quite awhile, way back when I was Cuddlegerbil (don't ask) but most people died from the sugar content of that nick so I've had Lunaseas ever since:) Kirsten Maloney

Phantast said "Using the last two digits of the year one was born seems to be quite common. For others of us here, it's not something one wishes to advertise!" Just for the record mine are not the year I was born ;-)! Engel because it is Dutch for Angel and my real name is Angela. I use Engel47 most places and SedgleyBird where I don't. (I was born in Sedgley).

"What motivates people to change? It would be interesting to know all the reasons." That isn't the only motive :) Many many people here have a couple of nicks for purchasing. I hear some accountants don't like getting reciepts with names like as example- 'Satans little helper' or 'xocjksdfkjak'

When my fiance and I first got together we used to listen to a lot of Journey. Some couples have a special "song", but we had a "band" instead of just a single song. Heh. :) Ever since I started using the internet (about 4-5 years ago) I've been Neyjour, no matter where I am. Always the same. It's Journey split up and flipped around: ney-Jour = Neyjour. But most of my online friends shorten it to Ney or Neyj. :)

I've been LonCray ever since my first real email acct, back around 1993 or so. It took the place of my old Prodigy account (remember them?) which didn't have screenames. Lonkellis Cray was an old D&D character whose name I used over and over again in various Roleplaying Games. I use it on just about every site I can now.

Grey cat was my constant companion for 16 years until he die of old age. I always use that name as a way to remember him.

I have sometimes called myself Buck Rogers, because it was my CB radio handle when CB came to England, and someone chose it for me because I look like a spaceman in my motorcycle gear. In the couse of time I have been mistaken for: air pilot, parachutist, spaceman, UFO crew.

Always been silver, since Silverwing was taken. However at Daz and on my music sites like Mp3.com and Soundclick, it's Christianson. Now when I play Unreal Tournament, it's Rocketboy, 'cuz I prefer the rocket launcher. :)

I didn't actually chose this name oddly enough, though I kept it. I used to be wearefamily with mac's first browser thing, but when that ended, I had just divorsed and my ex gave the new aol account to my daughter who chose names for us. She knew that I was called Barbarella at work, but that was taken so she added NY. For whatever reason, I kept it.

Here, I am "compiler", the non violent Doc Jekyll. I have been also the infamous, Hide-like, "Prof Simon Wright" to post my naughty images (no, nothing porno, I keep it to eroticism at worst). I now am sometimes anonymous.

I'm only martian_manhunter here. At other sites I'm singing_brakeman, RidingTheDragon, dragonrider and right now at daz I just changed my handle from "RidingTheDragon" to "Osho Sannyasin".

some of us change our handles for various reasons..I can think of a couple in the OT forum who have done so..I changed mine, because after a year, I'd passed my 'freshness' date for nu-be..;) dbmale was for another, uh, 'frank chat' site..leave it at that..;)

Xenophon was an ancient Greek military general-hero/philosopher/historian. To discuss his entire life and times would go well beyond the scope of this forum.

Here is a brief synopsis:

*Xenophon, 431-350 BCE, Athenian historian.
Xenophon served as a young man in the cavalry in the war between Athens and Sparta, after which he became a student of Socrates. Distrustful of democracy (a feeling later exacerbated after Socrates' death), he left Athens when democracy was reestablished in 410 BCE. For some years he served as a mercenary under the Persian prince Cyrus, leading a force of Greeks known as the Ten Thousand in wars in the Near East, which he described in his Anabasis. Later he served the Spartan king Agesilaus II, at witnessed the Battle of Coronea at which Sparta destroyed his native city of Athens. For his service to the enemy, Athens banished Xenophon from the city. The banishment was revoked when Athens and Sparta united against the common Theban enemy in 365 BCE, and Xenophon returned to Athens where he spent the rest of his life.

In addition to the Anabasis, Xenophon wrote three works in which he defended Socrates (the Apology, the Symposium, and the Memorabilia), and a treatise on the education of a prince called the Cyropaedia.*

I have a deep interest in ancient history.

I am not Greek, nor am I of Greek descent. Nor do I agree with the real Xenophon's thinking on many issues.

I simply like the way that the name sounds.

Something To Do At 3:00AM

I use dolfijntjes wich means dolphins in Dutch but I always sign with Ang the name I use for years now on the internet but was already taken. Ang is nothing more then my real name but then shorter my real name is Angique but that was to long to type LOL

I initially got my interest in the nick Calypso from the Odyssey, which I had to read in my sophmore year of high school. (the daughter of the Titan Atlas (or Oceanus or Nereus), a nymph of the island of Ogygia who snared Odysseus for 7 years) However Calypso is also a type of orchid or a type of folk song. I love music and flowers. :D And actually I also named my charcoal tabby kitty Lady Calypso Mish-Mish. She;s usually just Calypso unless she's been naughty. ;)

I've always been PapaBlueMarlin :)

...in my last life I was Florence Nightengale. Just kidding, I was Billy the Kid. Still kidding. I started as PDXJim on an old BBS before the internet was widely availble. Then one day I discovered my membership had run out, and I couldn't get the stupid system to renew my on my old ID, so I created a new ID with a random letter ("s") at the end. I've been pdxjims ever since. When I'm in chat, I almost always get asked if there's two of me. I don't think the world is ready for 2 of me. And Anton is Anton is Anton, in my own little heart.

Here at Renderosity, I am, and have always been lhiannan (That's an "L" not an "I" or a "1"). The Lhiannan Shee (aka leanan sidhe)(lan-an she) is a beautiful vampire fae of Celtic lore. In other realms I was known as Artemis, which is a mythology move from Diana, which is similar to my name Deana (Dee-Anna, not Deena)... But then people started mistaking me for male (thanks to a certain character in a certain RPG series). I've also been Alia (in fact, my website still bears that name), for reasons that need not be discussed here, for it is long ago and far away :D

I use Himico for Poser works, and Ken for photography elsewhere.

Well, in the Poser/art community, I've always been elizabyte, a play on my middle name (Elizabeth, obviously). In web design circles, I go by Alicorna, which is the name of my business. Alicorna is Italian for unicorn, with a specifically feminine gender (the masculine would be "alicorno"). And in talker (MUD) communities, I'm generally known as Duchess, uhm.... just because. I think it had something to do with the mad duchess in Alice in Wonderland, and also something to do with the Duchess of York (Fergie), but it's been so many years I honestly can't remember the specifics of why I chose it. And, of course, I do go by my own (first) name, which is Bonni (yes, that's it, yes, that's how it's spelled ;-). I generally sign posts and emails with all lower case letters because that's how I sign my hand-drawn pictures/paintings, and I've done so since about 1978 (long before it was trendy). bonni <-- Like that. ;-)

The only names I ever used and still use: MondoJake mondo_jake ...and mondoxjake here since the site changed my underscore character to 'x' when I signed up 3 or 4 years ago. I find using the same name in different formats a lot easier to really get to know online folks and be recognized at various sites. I am always running into 'friends' using different monikers at obscure sites, but they know who I am right away. Bottom line: There is only one Mondo Jake!

I am, and always have been, Batronyx. My first venture into the online world was on AOL back in '94/'95 (somewhere in there) and I had to choose a screen name. All of the variations on my real name required a number stuck on the end ( yuck! I didn't want to be the 4377th bbowen ). My first cat was a black one named Onyx. Several of my interests seem to be associated with bats ( mostly Batman and various vampires ) so I stuck 'em together. I also liked the way it rhymed with 'electronics', further reflecting my interests in all things technical. I made a logo of sorts you can see on my artist page that further reflects these interests.

I've also had batronyx.com since '96 but don't break your neck to get over there or anything. It's been mostly a vanity thing as it's never been attached to an IP address until this year and I still haven't done much with it, although I have a few plans, including a couple of freebies I've been working on and the requisite gallery. ;)

Sandoppe....everywhere. Well.....except for when I decided to sign into Renderotica to see what it was really like but didn't want anyone to know I was there.....so I used "snoozer"! Muuuuuhahaha!!! The name sandoppe is simply a derivative of my first and last names. Snoozer??? Maybe besides not wanting anyone to know I was at Renderotica, I also wanted them to think I was sleeping when I was there???? :)

Oh, and on sites where "Phantast" has been taken, you'll find me as miss_bian - but I make no secret about it.

hm, I started out as black_canary (like the comic book heroine) and since my real name's mary, that sort of morphed to MaryCanary, as a sig line anyway, so then I signed up a few places as just "canary." Meanwhile I had a yahoo id, chandracrater, taken from some SF stories I was writing at the time. So when poser finished eating every second of the time I used to spend writing, I figured I'd get a new yahoo id that matched up to my forum id's so I wouldn't have to keep explaining why I was chandracrater@yahoo.com! but someone already had "canary@yahoo.com" so I went for canary3d@yahoo.com and registered www.canary3d.com. But I was still black_canary here, which didn't match, so I signed up as canary3d here as well and have used that at other forums since then. Wow, that's a whole saga! A really boring one :) -Mary

Just plain old melanie everywhere because my name really is Melanie and it's the easiest for me to remember (I suffer from Menopausal Blonde Disorder), although a couple of places I've been jonica after a character in a book I wrote a few years ago. Melanie

At Rosity and most other places I'm CyberscapE. I got this name from an old college radio show in Atlanta,GA. They used to play industrial/goth/synthpop music. I also use this name for my music projects where I create techno/industrial tracks on my computer. And I also use it for DJing in clubs. Other names in the past: fudleybutt (my Dad's name for his dog) ogre69 (the year of my birth combined with the name of the lead singer of Skinny Puppy-a Canadian noise band) Present names elsewhere: spankthegriffen (my handle in some chatrooms) nobody's_drool (a yahoo name) I sign my renders with boReeL, which is a backwards spelling for my childhood nickname - Lee Rob.
