I used Ivan_2068 ever7ywhere before using my real name here.
Once a friend introduced me to his lunatic girlfriend who was some kind of witch, and when I kissed her face (Peruvians greet girls always with a kiss the face, no shaking hands normally), she entered into some kind of trance.
It was spooky, and she said "You're going to die".....I was terrified, after a few seconds with her eyes turned white she continued........."In 2068".
I don't know if she's really a psychic, probably just loony, because none of her predictions have come truth, but in that moment I could not do anything that laugh in her face.
Since then I use Ivan_2068 everywhere and even some friends call me like that, becuse this guy told everyone I turned pale greenish after the frst part of her trance.
Iván

My nickname is quite obvious, no need to explain.
IMO oliverstoned is the best nick in our forum.

A rocking octopus, a great album and it wasn't taken. Nothing serious.

You forgot MicroMachine and MurderManiac  About mine: I've written short stories all of my life and in most of 'em, a character I invented appears and this character's name is Bern. It comes from nowhere. I just thought about that and wrote it a long time ago. It stuck. Now you all know

As for my nickname, it's the pseudonym I use for my musical fumblings. It's a quality I wish human beings had more of.

Mine's been an Internet net since I was about 18 or so (I'm not 25). I used to frequent a chatroom and needed a name and it popped into my head. Initially it was just Gecko, but one day someone had that name so I changed it and it's stuck.
I've actually discovered another dude in America with the exact same version of my name, it's disheartening!

A mispelling of the first track on Moonmadness, "Aristilus."
According to BaldJean/Friede, it means "little butt" in Latin (or something like that).

Ed The Dead - it sounds quite cheesy, plus its an Iron Maiden reference...

It's the name I've been using on another forum for a few years now, and
it's a song by In Flames, one of the bands which let me into metal,
which led me into prog etc. etc.
And the simple abbreviation MMG makes it pretty easy and recognizable.
