My name, Jack: Originates from "John" a hebrew name meaning "God is Gracious." This is the common one I find. However, I've found alternate meanings. I think it can also mean "boy" in old english, although I can't find any evidence of that. However, my middle name is far more interesting - "Percival" (also spelt "Perceval"), who was a Knight of the Round Table (boo yah!), means "Piercing the Valley" or alternatively "Piercing the Veil", something to do with the Grail. Even cooler is the Welsh spelling which is "Peredur", which I must use as a character name sometime in the future.

My name is the new title for my novel.
That, and I wrote reviews on FanFiction.net under this name.

When I became a member of deviantArt, I was planning it to be "Warthog In A King Prawn Suit." The same as the writer's club I used to go to. The reason being I like warthogs and Pepe Le Shrimp from the muppets.

Unfornately the name couldn't be that long so I changed it to WarthogDemon because I'm pretty interested in ancient demons of mythology.

WarthogDemon has been what I've used ever since.

My user name doesn't have any real meaning to it. It's a short version of Fisher, but without the E. I've been fishing since I was old enough to walk. So, I've been fishing for twenty years.

My real name is Jessica, which is Hebrew. I believe it has alternate meanings such as "Wealthy" or "God's Grace." My last name is Bruce. Though it might be obvious, it's Scottish but also French. The meaning; "Woods" or "Woodlands."

My real name, Brianna, means "the strong." Though I am terribly weak physically, I have strong ambition.
My midddle name Kristen means "follower of Christ" which is pretty cool. ^^

Well, my screeen name was a big mistake in my opinion. I was called Firebird on some other site, which I liked a lot more, but people thought I was a guy so I went for something a bit more feminine. Not even I know how to pronounce it. I had a character with that name, but then, appart from realising it sucked, I thought "Why torture her so?" so I've decided not to torture her. I just ask everyone to call me El.

My real name is Lucy, which means "light" or "bringer of light" or something to do with light ... so therefore Lucifer means light too ... although I think fire. My middle name, Jane, means "God is Gracious" and I can't think of a meaning more boring.

Warthog??? from TYWC???
*cries* *can't help myself*

Fontroy is erm a word play Font and Royal lol.

Vernon is French and it means Alder Tree.

'Backgroundbob' is from a band I used to be in (one of those high school things - never went anywhere, but loads of fun) called Backgroundnoise; it just kind of stuck to me and I kept it.

Robert is a family name: there's been one in the family for however many generations that I can't remember - it's from the Scottish and Irish (just Gaelic, really ) sides of the family, and means 'shining and famous', from the old line of Scottish kings. My last name comes from my Irish side of the family, but our official alligence is to clan Macpherson through my grandmother. Just in case we ever get called up for war

sabradan is a screenname I've been using since I got on the internet. Its a combination of the word "sabra" which is a native desert cactus plant (that tastes really good) that is native to Israel. Also, sabra is a nickname for native-born israelis, after the plants, because Native-born Israelis are said to be, like the plants, "hard and prickly on the outside, and soft and sweet on the inside"

And Dan, my name, comes from Daniel, which is obviously Hebrew. It means Judge, and also "My Judge is the Lord". It comes from the story of Daniel the Judge in the Lions Den in the bible.

My username...

...I really have no idea how I came up with my username.

Well, Roaming Shadow is the assumed name of a characters in a sci-fi story I've got hanging. He's the only person in the galaxy (After being abducted and taken away from the Milkey Way Galaxy) and since he then goes to live with a race of aliens whose names are quite literal, he feels the name suits him. He feels alone and almost nonexistent (the shadow part) and he knows he'll never be able to stay in one place long (roaming). Hmm...maybe I'll post what I've got on that soon.

As for my real name Justin, I have no idea if it has any kind of special meaning anywhere. If anybody knows if it does, I'd love to know!

Crayon because i fill peoples lives with colour and because somebody once asked me if i could be an animal what one i would be and i said that first thing that popped into my head which happened to be "Crayon" i wasnt thinking straight that night! Oppppps!

Any my name is Hannah which means "able to weather any storm" in Hebrew and "Grace of God" and my middle names"Joy which is pretty self explainatory.

Erethror-A name in a story I used, and looong abandoned (it may come back...)

But my real name? God's Judge....wait a minute, thats not right (maybe not in your minds). Judge of God....still isn't it... God is my Judge, there we go! (Hey sabradan, if it was Eldan, then would it be God's Judge?) Anyway, yes I share the same name as our favourite Israelite!
