This has probably been asked before but I wanted to add another layer/an alternative.

So, I ask, where did your username/pseudonym/nickname originate from? What’s the meaning behind it?

Or alternatively, which is the most creative/interesting nickname origin you have come across?

    Are you friends with count zero :-) ?

    Another computer error.

        From Willian Gibsons (the guy who coined ‘Cyberspace’) book Count Zero, if you put zero on the interrupt on address zero you’ll just get stuck in an neverending cycle.

        And it was the chosen nick of Bobby in the book.
