Name Abbreviations

[Niteowl]

ok, we've all been in a game where we need a regs attention, and have all used various abbreviations of ppl's names. what do you use, what do you prefer? what have you heard ppl call you?

for me, i hear 'nite' all the time, which i don't mind, i also don't mind 'owl', as that differentiates me from the millions of NightWolf, NightHawk, NigthWhatever folks out there. i've also heard 'gramps', 'the old guy', whatever

here are some abbrev i use!

bob
sati
sancho
hd
anar


er, drawnig a blank here, help me out guys

[ThoraX]

i like replacing the last syllable with 'nub' like so many others.

[X-S-Z]

I keep hearing people call me X-S-"ED"   :huh:

[BobTheJanitor]

It's 'Zed' and you can thank those godless brits for that. They can't accept the proper, godly, humane pronounciation of Z as 'zee'. They insist on sticking with their heathen perversion, pronouncing it 'zed'.

[Doobie Dan]

[Lito]

It's 'Zed' and you can thank those godless brits for that. They can't accept the proper, godly, humane pronounciation of Z as 'zee'. They insist on sticking with their heathen perversion, pronouncing it 'zed'.

That would be canadians, too...

[Dubbilex]

Dubb's cool.  Sometimes people call me "Dubblix"

But meh - I'd settle for "that sexy guy over there" if you guys prefer.

Could we just categorize you all as 'non-american' and therefore 'freaks of nature' and get on with bombing anyone who doesn't look, talk, or smell like us?

[Satiagraha]

Dubb's cool.  Sometimes people call me "Dubblix"

But meh - I'd settle for "that sexy guy over there" if you guys prefer.

Sorry, that's taken :p

I go by Sati, Sat (although that commonly gets confused with satcomm), Satia. I'd prefer it if people didn't try to type out my full name if they don't know how it's spelled.

nitey
bob
isanub
dubb
doob
DHP
zairo

ABS
aciv
fewpid
hunz (or hunzzzzzz)

[Grimm]

My name is perfect as it is.  B)

I don't always call everyone by their full moniker, and the "abbreviated" nicknames aren't always abbreviated much, but they always seem to fit well enough. Anarki, Niteowl, Dubb, Diablus, and Bob all fit well and aren't a pain to type. Some people are fortunate enough to have a name that I can make a new nick-name out of, like how I call Holy_Devil Holy-D. I've been fortunate enough with Grimm to be called Grimmus (AgentOrange was the one who originally started calling me that, if I recall correctly), and everyone else seemed to go with it, so that solved my problem of constantly losing Grimm in IRC.

[Niteowl]

oh yeah, no i remember,

e2 !!

that's what i call him anyways, not eva :/

[Keyser59]

I like to be called senor picklesworth.

[Jefe]

My name is only 4 letters  ^_^

[johnjacobjingle]

johnny boy
johnjacob
jacob
jingle
heimer
schmidt
jjjhs
mary
johnjacobblahblah(tonguenoise)
john
j^3 to the h s

then there's "stab face" which asal so lovingly calls me when i decide to knife all those damned aliums.

...there are more i just can't remember
as to which is my favorite?  mary or johnjacob work just fine.  you'll be bant for mic spamming if you try to say my whole name ;-)

[edit]your name may be only 4 letters, but is it pronounced "gee fee"  or "geef" i've never really known.[/edit]

[Jefe]

It's a spanish word, so the J is pronounced like you would an H

That's why it says "Hehfay" in the sig, you see.

You will be called JJ

[Dark]

a "J" in spanish is pronounce as an "H" so his name is "Hef eh" phonetically <3


edit: doh Jefe beat me to the explanation o_O

...sancho...?

 

[Dark]
