I've got a terrible memory for names at the best of times, but having been away for a few months I seem to have missed enough iterations of what appears to be a veritable jag of name changes, I've not got a clue who half of you are.

I gather a few people are returning from hiatus at the moment, so I might not be the only person feeling like this.

Any chance you could list your various incarnations over the last year or so? Particularly if at some point you've changed your name beyond recognition.
 
 
DRR... DRR... DRR...
(prev. Mordant)
01:22 / 21.09.07
I'm about 3 names removed from Mordant Carnival now. Might go back, might not.
 
 
Smoothly
01:29 / 21.09.07
You I'd worked out. But it took me a while. This is what I mean! 'Aunt Beast - prev. Live things in you'; complete nightmare.
 
 
Quantum of Solace

Quantum: Theory of Insanity
(prev. Mark VII Super Quantum E-meter)

Hello. I am secretly Quantum, Scourge Of All Evil. Fear my T-shirt.

I am E. Randy Dupre, he's Bizunth, and Bizunth is me.

05:10 / 21.09.07
No, wait, sorry. I'm Bizunth and E. Randy Dupre is grant.

I might not have the sequence quite right.

09:31 / 21.09.07
I used to be various permutations of id and entity, and now I am various permutations of Zippy and Cavanaugh. And sometimes a little of each.
 
 
Tamara Willett Hurt
(prev. Milton FUCKING Friedman)
09:56 / 21.09.07
I used to be The Car You See Too Late, and G for Gundetta.
 
 
Rex Feral
10:02 / 21.09.07
Was Illmatic and Lucky Liquid (still my fave name).
 
 
Tryphena Absent
10:41 / 21.09.07
Does anyone else suspect Shaftoe did that for the laughs?

Vivaciously Marzipaned Janina
Anna de Logardiere
Nina
Nadezhda
Tryphena Sparks

I think there have been some variations but those are the names I use.
 
 
Boboss
11:35 / 21.09.07
I used to be Bobossboy

Weird, eh?
 
 
Disco is My Class War
12:22 / 21.09.07
I think everyone pretty much knows that I was Rosa Luxembourg years ago.
 
 
Happy Dave
(prev. Happy Quadrangle)
13:27 / 21.09.07
I have always been some form of Happy.

Except when I was briefly a reference to a World War II propaganda film, in that I was called '7s in the Continental Fashion'.
 
 
Better Be Ready

I'm still dead...
 
 
Janean Patience
13:44 / 21.09.07
I have always been some form of Happy.

I thought you used to be Elvis Dave, or something like. Who was that then?
 
 
grant
16:10 / 21.09.07
I was Rosa Luxembourg years ago

And some of us still carry a torch....
 
 
Tryphena Absent
16:23 / 21.09.07
That's exactly how I reacted to the name Rosa Luxembourg. You were definitely one of the people who made me want to actually contribute to barbelith.
 
 
Mon Oncle Ignatius
16:24 / 21.09.07
I have been Django-Ignatius Durango, back(wards) in the day, and combinations of Django and Tango and Mango with other midly-amusing (to me) references to nothing much of interest at various times.

I am not however a member of the Spartacist League; but some might still carry a gun attached to the torch...
 
 
Boboss
17:08 / 21.09.07
Well if we're going back to the day, circa 2001/2002 I went by:

Hindermate

Pranny

I am Twenty One [actually I wasn't]

I still like Hindermate. It's one of my favourite words - fits a certain sort of person precisely*.

*Ziggy from The Wire
 
 
Rail Transfer
17:13 / 21.09.07
Like cockblocking*, but more generalised?

Nice coinage.

I joined during the great registrations reopening of summer '05 as Canty, later Fat Lee, now Mysterious Transfer Student, with various one-off names sprinkled in between... my favourite being Detective Goren's guitar solo. I was watching a *lot* of Hallmark Channel crime dramas....

*I swear I've never used this phrase even in jest.
 
 
Boboss
17:51 / 21.09.07
Detective Goren's guitar solo

I'm not that keen on screen names that take the form of noun phrases, or narrative, or commands, or description these days. It can be done well, I suppose, but on the whole it doesn't work for me.
 
 
Stoatie. Stoatie? STOATIE.
(prev. Stoatie's power level is >9000)
19:35 / 21.09.07
Christ, I'm dull.
 
 
grant
19:38 / 21.09.07
Wait, I thought dull was one of the Jenny Everywhere organizers.

Weren't you one of the Annas?
 
 
diz
19:45 / 21.09.07
I'm pretty sure all of my names have a "diz" element to them. I'm going for the minimalist approach right now.
 
 
Boboss
19:55 / 21.09.07
Thinking about it my old name was I am Twenty Five, which - again with the brain engagement - I actually was.
 
 
Superman
(prev. Iron Man)
21:24 / 21.09.07
I used to be 'MacGyver', and before that 'I'm A Celebrity, Cut My Face Off And Wear It Like A Mask'.
 
 
All Acting Regiment
22:04 / 21.09.07
Legba, Legba Rex, Allecto Regina, etc etc
 
 
Quantum of Solace
22:24 / 21.09.07
'I'm A Celebrity, Cut My Face Off And Wear It Like A Mask'. I loved that name.
 
 
E. Randy Dupre
23:26 / 21.09.07
I used to be Hans Zatoud Ishus.
 
 
Busts'wana Beast
01:14 / 22.09.07
Thinking about it my old name was I am Twenty Five, which - again with the brain engagement - I actually was.

I don't know that you were throughout, though; I think you're at least two years older than I, and you still had it when I was twenty-five. Maybe.

I am any name with the letters f-a-l-c-o-n in them; also, briefly and perhaps somewhat embarrassingly I attempt to play up third world credentials with 'I am the African' and most recently went with the 'Is it fascistic? I don't know, hope not' German translation of 'The Falcon'.
 
 
Busts'wana Beast
01:16 / 22.09.07
I thought Harrison Ford battletank was 'I'm a celebrity, comfawilam'?

huh. Also, I thought Fred, encore left so that's nice.
 
 
Keggers. Classic.
03:00 / 22.09.07
I once was Keggers.
