eZabel names

Very few people on this site seem to use their own name as their eZabel name. I was wondering what the story was behind some of these crazy names. (And if you want to share your true identity, go for it).

I'll start--> TOXICGIRL: On msn im my font is lime green. I was talking to my friend from Scotland who always complained about me using toxic green, he could barely see it. So he started calling me toxic girl. End of story.

Oh by the way, my name is Gabriella.

somebody started calling me SunShyne on msn messenger and i loved it! now i am plotting on how to get more ppl to use it. previously, my nicknames were number one (my grandparents called me this bc i am the first grandchild), sergio, sum and summertime

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

I always call people sunshine. like i'll say "good morning sunshine" or "hey sunshine" whether its male or female. it just sounds cheery! *billabong has T with that expression*

violetboregaurd violetboregaurdOG 2003 ·

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is one of my favorite movies of all time - it is about SO much more than candy... lol.

So Veruca Salt was gonna be my name, but that was to much of a throw back to the band - but VioletBoregaurd was second to none so I took her name instead... allrighty tighty I'm out.

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

You know they're re-doing that right? It's going to be called Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Johnny Depp plays Willy Wonka. Should be awesome!

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

I don't know. I have trouble picturing him as willie wonka.

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

Why? The guy can act just about any type of role, he can play a perfect lunatic. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and Ed Wood proved that.

perrin perrinOG 2004 ·

Yeah I know he's a good actor I just can't picture him in that role is all.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 ·

the writer who did the new treatment of the willy wonka book never saw the Gene Wilder version. he went on the book alone. he finally watched the movie and he said his draft came out much lighter than the Gene Wilder flick. either Tim Burton is gonna do a very dark and creepy rewrite, or he's gonna make a LIGHTER version of the film from a visionary writer who's mind isn't tainted with visuals from the original film. i can't wait to see how this goes.

violetboregaurd violetboregaurdOG 2003 ·

I hope he doesnt wreck it - the gene wilder one was dark enough that it was still very light and fun... I didn't see the underlying stuff till i was way older and jaded. lol/jk

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 ·

I think Johnny Depp would be PERFECT. he's awesome in the quirky roles the only thing that I'm going to be scared of are the oompa loompas, they'll probably make them more scarier than the original...

modestjesse modestjesseOG 2004 ·

Not sure about scary as much as psychodelic. But being orange and short munchkins was psychodelic in it's own rights.

Either way with Burton doing it and Depp as Willy Wonka it should be incredible.

violetboregaurd violetboregaurdOG 2003 ·

oh man i know and Tim Burton is directing it!!

walkngplaygrnd walkngplaygrndOG 2003 ·

ahhh yes, I know there has been suspense in the air as I finally give everyone the story behind my screen name . . . which is as follows:

One night a few friends and I hung out at some random playground at night, but it was dark out, though it was a beautiful night . . . at any rate, we were swinging on the swings and playing on the see-saw, and i actually slammed down on my end of the see-saw really hard and the girl flew in the air and fell off the other side. She was kinda sore after that, but she healed pretty quickly.

So I told her we don't ever have to go to the playground again because I would be her playground. And she could play on the milty-bars and stuff. And I told her she could be the beanie-go-round (her name was Sabrina - I called her beanie - let's move on). But that's what inspired the entire playground concept.

From that point on, I vowed to be a playground at all times, but on foot, making me a "walking playground." A long story, I know, but I think it was worth it.

jollycandymanOG 2001 funny ·

Are you saying your body is a wonderland?

walkngplaygrnd walkngplaygrndOG 2003 ·

haha . . . NO. actually, there's a more obscure origin for the whole playground thing, but if anybody knows it, they they'll be sure not to mention it, believe me . . .

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

jollycandymanOG 2001 ·

specialk specialkOG 2003 ·

Special K....well, my name is actually Keirsten, and a lot of people either find it too hard to pronounce, or just too long, so some of my friends just call me "K".....and I think I'm really special, too, hence the "Special" part of my name. :)

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

wait, are you really hot and from northern NJ? (dude! it's your mom!)

specialk specialkOG 2003 ·

Well, the really hot part might be based on personal opinion, but no, I'm from Ohio.

exit stage left, as miss toxicgirl discovered for herself in a music store, is the title of a rush cd. i am a diehard, 14-years-in-the-making rush fan. named ruthie.

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003 ·

Ok, so i am reading this history thing about indian tribal names from upstate new york, and one of the tribes were the Hunkpapas. So i called my band memebers and said that was the new name of our band. We were the hunkpapa's. My name is patrick, so i was hunkpapa-P....

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003 ·

Alternately, a more simple explanation is:
Hunk - As in, well, ME
Papa - As in yo daddy
P - As in #1

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

yeah hunkpapap!!

malibu malibuOG 2001 offtopic ·

i love the name gabrilla.

T
toxicgirlOG 2003 ·

Is that a typo? If it is and you meant to say Gabriella, I was gonna say I like it too. But if you really meant gabrilla, then I'd have to say I've never heard that one before.

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

no that was a typo, i was trying to remember how to spell her name without having to go back and look. so obviously i messed it up. thanks!

frobro frobroOG 2003 ·

just look at my profile pic, than you will understand.

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

i was once told by a friend that i was as dumb as a malibu barbie (even though i have dark hair). when i was younger my grandmother used to call me her barbie so i felt it was still appropriate. i just shortened it to malibu because that reminds me of the ocean and surfing.

my real name is julia.

omegatweeter omegatweeterOG 2003 ·

OmEgAtwEEtEr - there's two parts to my name. i chose OmEgA cuz it's greek and i'm part greek and it sounds pretty cool. twEEtEr is a nickname about 4 years old. i got it from school when this dude started callin me twEEtEr, cuz it rhymes with Peter. i liked it cuz the name fits my stoopidness and kind personality and stuff, so i stuck with it. i'm also guessing that he just saw the Varsity Blues movie (but i never saw that movie). i always capitalize my vowels in my screen names, i dunno anyone else who does, so i thought it'd be something original.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

i remember the day you signed on with this "new" name and said...this one is more spiritual (because it was omega) and someone said... "oh yeah?? like the Apostle Tweeter?" I laughed for a looong time about that.

omegatweeter omegatweeterOG 2003 ·

hehe yup, link's here: /musereply.cfm?id=63905

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002 ·

One day me and this lady friend were sitting on the beach.. in the dim light of the full moon , as waves lapped the shore trickling up to our toes.. during mid conversation a pigeon swooped down and layed beside us.. and i said " how appropriate, look it's a dirty pigeon " and she said " aww it might hear you .. it's a little cute. not dirty" *smack* and i said " aww sorry cute little dirty pigeon " and at that moment the pigeon spoke and said " apology accepted cute little dirty asian" and i said " thanks " and it said " I like you " and i said " hey you know what.. i like you too " .. and the pigeons name was 'Birds'

ophelia opheliaOG 2003 ·

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001 ·

tesoro tesoroOG 2001 ·

tesoro means treasure in italian...wayyyy back in the day..okay like 4 years ago thai was in love with me and would try to swoon me by talking to me in italian..so he started calling me tesoro..then i thought HEY..what a niffty idea for a s/n..and that my friends is how my eZabel name was concieved.

malibu malibuOG 2001 ·

i always loved this story. and it makes me really happy that i know at least one word in italian. there was an effort put in by several old couples in my hall when i was younger to only speak to me in italian and i used to be able to do it, but no, no more. upsetting.

tesoro tesoroOG 2001 ·

aw man! that would've been awesome! i tell the italians in my hall to only speak to me in italian..haha..they dont though..unless i start.

specialk specialkOG 2003 ·

What is your real name, if you don't mind me asking? :)

magnum magnumOG 2001 ·

ill answer that for you, her name is edwina

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003 ·

no its not, her name is Jahanna (or something to that effect... i'm not sure of the correct spelling haha)

specialk specialkOG 2003 ·

Oh, how pretty! I do believe I have heard that name mentioned before (in a good way)....I'm just trying to put real names with ezabel names. :)

magnum magnumOG 2001 ·

yeah that may be her name but i think edwina fits her just fine

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

She is also known as caller #1 on Sunday Night Phone Pranks

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003 ·

OMG! i'm so writing a journal about that right now

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

that was soooo incredibly fun! I'm caller #3, haha

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 ·

I think I was #6 but then I became #7 when Mel joined.

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder ·

Wayyyy back when Ezabel started I had debated between several names, check them out:
/musereply.cfm?id=98

Anyways, "marmalade lagoon" was too long, but that was my favorite. So I settled for the name I use now.

As far as meaning goes...I think the link explains that I'm crazy. Nuff said. It has no real meaning, and that's why I like it...(or likeD it). Pretty much my name just rhymes. It sounds like this:

"Flow-Mow-Joe Poe-uh-node"

My real name is Todd Bastidas. My AIM s/n is something related to the princess bride--it's a cool one, but I just wanted a different name on Ezabel.

J
jollycandymanOG 2001 ·

hahah, all craziness, I like "mynameispooplip".
Hey Todd remember "How about a bumper-sandwich bugerlips?" hey, hey?

Dude, I read your name and I have the name stuck in my head for hours.... GRRRRRR!!!!

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 ·

SKAORSK8 just happens to appear after you have been drinking and come home and just sit on your keyboard. pretty amazing stuff.

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 ·

my name is self explanatory. Forreste with the "ina" ending meaning little girl...Forrestina. i've been called that since i was 5 or so. plus it's a contraction of my then best friend (christina)and my name.

ophelia opheliaOG 2003 ·

Ophelia is actually my real name...My parents wanted a girl...when it dawned on them that they simply couldn't change nature, they figured giving me a female name would be close enough

tinser tinserOG 2002 ·

Tinser-Actually, it was my brothers nickname (don't even know how that got started), but a long time ago, when AOL first started, my whole family shared the same screen name, and my brother decided that the name we used should be Tinser...but eventually, my family stopped using the name, and i kept using it. Then people started calling me Tinser...and i've been using it ever since.

J
jollycandymanOG 2001 ·

this is a really awesomeidea for a thread, you should put up a poll for the best Ezabel name

T
toxicgirlOG 2003 ·

Thanks, I was thinking about it. But whose names should be included?

J
jollycandymanOG 2001 ·

well of course, yours and mine and 5 other random people

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003 ·

Yodasucka was given to me by Bryan.... my old childhood nickname was "yoda" and i always say "sucka" so that takes care of that... also, it doubles as "yo da sucka" like "you the sucka" get it? got it? good

J
jollycandymanOG 2001 ·

JOLLY CANDY MAN--> I was still in school when i first got on Ezabel. I was in Tech class, and there was this hilarious kid named Pat who got held back twice. He would always use the word "jolly" when he talked about how happy he was when he landed a snowboard trick. So when i was first creating my Login name he was sitting across the room making fun of the teacher. So I got Jolly from that. And the night before that I saw "Willy Wonka" and thus the "candy man" part and thus "jolly candy man" and thus how I got my name
