    Errr.... Why? Most people stick with the same nick for years, even when (like me) they've discovered that the character they named themselves after isn't what he appeared to be from the first 18 eps of the series... smile.gif

    It's not like the annual nick spring-clean... tongue.gif

    But... um.... big cats...

    Tony O'Reilly?
    Michael Smurfit?
    Alfie Kane?

    No hang on, those are fat cats.... what about...

    Lion
    Tiger
    Panther
    Leopard

    err.... I was always crap at zoology stuff...

    dont bother jag. I changed my name to Hecate around september last year and it was the biggest load of toss ever. Now i'm in the precarious position of playing q2 as [HIV]BobaFett, Tribes as [EM]Hecate, going on the boards and irc as Hecate...plus everyone still calls me bob...headwrecking.

    heres some suggestions tho:

    Catfood
    RonanKeatingsVest
    UncleFester(or FesteR)
    2fast4you
    JagBeNimbleuBeDead (a personal favourite smile.gif
    AOLdisk[!]

    You're not being adventurous enough IMHO, so you should try something more extreme:


    KaC'Hak, Destroyer of Worlds
    Mr Ivan
    Squeezy Cheese
    Pigeon Lightfoot
    In-Bread
    Coconut Truffle
    Key-Bored
    Seven_Day_Travel_Card
    Revolving Turnstile
    Two4thepriceof1
    Orangutan Man

    So, vote for one of THESE!!

    and a bear is exactly how closely related to a big cat?
    why do you want to be named after somehting that sounds as if it should give brighter pictures, bigger smiles and less red-eyes?
    anyway, why not choose 3 or 4 names and just confuse everyone?

    only problem is, sometimes you start to suffer from serious personality clashes. on the other hand i am a q2 clan in 1 but my teamwork needs a bit of practise smile.gif
