Well my name is Jennifer Ann, which got shortened to Jenna because I hate being called Jenny.

I sometimes go by the nick name 'JennaVAtion' online as I am a part time Voice Actress (VA). That is also the name of my resume.

Wow what a faaaaaacinating story that was. :)

Well, I think everyone has heard name Nemo before. There's the Captain Nemo and the fish called Nemo and Nightwish's song named Nemo.
The word "nemo" is actually latin and means no-one. 8) And of course "Nemo" sounds better than "eikukaan"... *grin*

Well. I used to be a huge Static X fan (ugh... actually I still am, tho these days my musical taste is a bit wider), and I really liked those Otsego songs (Otsego undead, Otsegolation, Otsegolectric). At that time I felt like getting rid of my old nickname... so Otsego it was.

There's a Song called "Akherousia" by Draconian and I just thought
that Akherousin would fit myself nice.

My name is from the Death-metal band Deicide.. It is actually latin..I have the exact translation here:

Deicide:
\De"i*cide\, n. [L. deicida a deicide (in sense 2); deus god + c[ae]dere to cut, kill: cf. F. d['e]icide.]
1. The act of killing a being of a divine nature; particularly, the putting to death of Jesus Christ. [R.]

Earth profaned, yet blessed, with deicide. --Prior.

2. One concerned in putting Christ to death.

You may now have guessed I'm a fan of the band. :P

What an awful name for a Band... or for anything for that matter. Why on earth would you want that as a nickname?

Well after all their lyrical themes are Satan, Anti-Christianity & Death.. :wink: ... And well.. I just think it sounds cool.. also it's latin and well yeah... I like the meaning of the word, not that I'm an anti-christian or satanistic person.. Just like the word. :D

Never wear a shirt with a picture of brownbear in the chest on a bad day. It may have long lasting effects for your behaviour. In english my nick is something like "Badbearz" :twisted:
