My actual username refers to Anne Boleyn (nanbullen), second wife of King Henry VIII. I was reading fictional account of Anne's life when I created a new account.

My original one (Linda Rhaldeen) is an anagram for Daniel Handler. My current one (Edgar Allen Poe) is a tribute to the greatest horror writer of all time. Not to mention the father of the detective story and whose lyrical prose was so magnificent that they dubbed it POEtry....okay, I made that last part up.

Poetry comes from the Greek word "poeio" meaning "I create." The more you know. My name was JD Salinger, in honour of the author of Catcher in the Rye, Nine Stories and the Glass family sagas. J is for Jesus sounded like a fun WackY name for my Jesus-freak personality in the HP thread, and J is the first initial of my alias.

My username comes from my obsession for progressive, neo-classical, and symphonic metal music. Extremely underrated, but this style of music is my life. I figured that I should use that name.

My name, S. Who, comes from my father, and his father before him. *laughs*
My current name is after a famous mathematician, René Descartes, the Father of Modern Mathematics. He invented the coordinate plane, and established the unit i[/i], among other things.

My original name, vfdmaster 2003 was well, the only thing I could think of. From there I went on with a lot of vfdmaster inspired names (e.g. Pharohvfdmaster, dukevfdmaster etc..)
After a while I settled on Sora my favorite game charactor. That is the name most people refer to me as.
As for my current name Jack London, it was inspired by the great author of White Fang and Call of the Wild. Machiavelli just wasn't working as everyone get thinking I was making refrence to the parody singer of the same name.

Well, since everyone was doing author names, I decided to do my own thing and turn my username into the scientific name of my favorite animal.
But my real username is the name of my favorite cat in the musical Cats.

My first username, violetbaudelaire13, is a bit obvious, I just added the 13 as a personal touch. My current username, Sugary Snicket, is my alterego (My Gothic, somewhat depressed alterego.....), and a tribute to Lemony Snicket all rolled into one name.

My regular username is Hooky. (Obviously refering to the hook-handed man A.K.A. Fernald in ASOUE.)
My current name comes from the name of a character in a cartoon movie. I decided to use it for a short period of time because it is very similar to my username.
