Some people have obvious names and others have more comfusing names. I am curious how you got some of these names.

One day I was relaxing in a hamock, which is what most people do around here, and somebody said "man you are just a common potatoe" after that I was known as commontator. Even my teachers call me this now.

i have used franklelock since registering for yahoo mail 3 years ago. i am a wrestling fan almost as much as i am a coaster fan. my first name is frank, and one of my favorite wrestler's finishing moves is the ankle lock. put them together, it's pretty simple.

Mine is actually a derivative of one that my high school students gave me when I was teaching at a school in Sacramento. At the time I had a weak attempt at a mustache and several of the kids thought that I looked like the main character from the movie Willow. (you know, the peck!)
<BR>
<BR>Anyways it kinda stuck, but I found when I started to use it online I ran into 2 problems. It was already in wide use, and when I did get the nick I was often mistaken for a girl. Using SirWillow corrected both of those.

<BR>everyone IM me on AOL i need to talk to someone about coasters. All of my friends hate 'em.

I thought up that name because I live right next to S&S Power and I love all the rides they build. I am very biased towards this company.

Mine is randomly thought of. I have a dog that looks like a Dingo so i just wrote it cuz itz a bit different...

<BR>i asked a friend what i should call it
<BR>he said "dogwumba" and it stuck
<BR>dogwumba is pronounced "dog-woohm-bah"

edit: but now i'm called shallowdays, which is a counting crows song

"she's drowning in the shallow days below..."

anyone who knows me, i have a signature hair style. ever since my barber accidentally gave me a haircut and left the fringe up with a flick, i have had it up like that, this has been like this for about 6years!recently though, i have gave my head an all-over flick, going in the direction of the lead singer from Linkin Park's old cut, and my girlfriend hated it!
<BR>
<BR>that is where i got Flix from, form the word flicks.
<BR>
<BR>not much of a story, but a damn good topic!

I am a high school/year long swimmer. I love swimming, and competing. I also love Rollercoasters. One time, I was thinking of new lyrics for ABBA's song Dancing Queen (It was in math class or something, and I was bored to death) and so instead of Dancing Queen, I came up with Swimming King. The name stuck, and now I use it all the time.

a couple of years ago all my friends skated i went against the norm and said i dont thus the No-sk8 and ER are my initials No-Sk8-ER i have stuck with it everywhere i go ezcept for my newest aim name

Location, location, location..... LOL. If you haven't yet figured it out swOHman stands for southwest Ohio man. I live in Dayton which is in southwest Ohio, so I just put two and two together LOL. My original sreename when I first got the interent was bravefan777 becuase I love the Atlanta Braves and 7 is the number of completion in the Bible, but that has little to do with coasters, so when I joined another forum a about a year and a half ago (URC to be exact), I just came up with swOHman. I still can't figure out why nobody can type it correctly though LOL.

Mine does not come from any of the coasters named Vortex... it in fact was chosen about 6 1/2 years ago (in the 7th grade) when my nickname then "The Mac Attack" made most people think I liked rap, something I despised.
<BR>
<BR>It comes from the concept of a spatial vortex, applicable in such things as black holes, wormholes, gravity wells, that kinda stuff.

Well I'm from Canada. And Canadians are sometimes called Canucks. So I chose Coaster Canuck.

I am 6'2" and about 155 pounds, and believe it or not, I throw the shotput and discus on my high school varsity track team. When I was a freshman a little over 2 years ago, I was the only person on the team that weighed in at under 250 pounds, so everyone on the team started calling me "skinny guy". The name has stuck ever since!
