Nominations for Best Nicks! - Page 3 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

eleanor_niphredil · 01-29-2003, 02:19 PM

Its from the Folk of the Faraway Tree. I loved those books. Am I right?

Carlas · 01-29-2003, 03:33 PM

I'd like to nominate Mithadan, its such a nice name. And the guy who be short, it reminds me of all my friends(accept that most of them are girls)

Amanaduial the archer · 01-29-2003, 03:44 PM

the guy who be short? Cool name!

Mithadan...tis a good name, but has anyone else read the Artifacts of Power Quartet? Mithadans name reminds me of Miathan, the baddie. Sorry Mith. Mind you, he was a very cool bad guy...

Aylwen Dreamsong · 01-29-2003, 08:38 PM

I nominate Smith of the Word.

Aylwen [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Spot on, eleanor. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] My favorite books before I read The Hobbit. I have just read them to my 5 year old daughter and she was absolutely captivated - can't wait to read Bilbo's adventures to her. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Gwaihir the Windlord · 01-30-2003, 01:51 AM

Yeah, I read the Faraway Tree books as a kid (I read a bit of one recently actually [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ). They are very good.

The best nick here has to be that of Tom Bombariffic. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] I like it anyway.

Birdland · 01-30-2003, 02:15 AM

Gwaihir - I started when I saw that name, since it reminded me of the "Tom Terrific" cartoon from the old Captain Kangaroo shows. Coincidence? Hmmmmm, we wonders, precious.

That's going wayyyyy back. Wonder if Tom qualifies for the "Tolkien Coming-of-Age" Club. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

*Varda* · 01-30-2003, 04:50 AM

The Faraway Tree! That's where I knew it from!

Come to think of it, now I should have just looked at your location and that would have given it away..

Merri · 01-30-2003, 11:53 AM

I forgot to add *Varda* and Gorwingel

Do it as soon as you can! My dad read me the Hobbit when I was four, and I loved it! Just skip past some of the longer descriptive parts.

Balin999 · 02-06-2003, 12:59 PM

Definitely Burrahobbit. Not just because I like his name, but also because we are at the same forum for nearly three years now.
Go, burra, go!

***Mithadan*** · 02-06-2003, 01:14 PM

I've been nominated? That's a bit of a surprise. For my part, I've always been fond of the nicknames "Amanaduial the archer" and "Marileangorifurnimaluim" (has anyone tried to work out what it means?). "Durelen", "Mr. Underhill" and our inestimable "Squatter of Amon Rudh" are also among my favorites. Of course, for sheer truthfulness "Nonesuch" can't be beaten.

Hmm, well, she's trying out a bit of CS Lewis right now. Perhaps I'll try the Hobbit after that. But, I'm afraid that I couldn't bring myself to leave anything out. [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

I just saw a "bad things always happen to me" that I found rather amusing... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I nominate these here names...

InklingElf
Angry Hill Troll
Lalaith
the_raging_jackass
WarBringer

Just to name a few. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Diamond18 · 02-06-2003, 02:48 PM

Ah, Eleanor, you beat me to it. But I'll second bad things always happen to me. How intriguing.

Funny you should mention that, Mith. But when it comes to names, I must agree. There is none such as Mithadan... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

But honestly, thinking about the meaning of "Mith-adan" I simply refuse to believe that name fits! You're too young, sorry! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Kalimac · 02-16-2003, 12:28 PM

Wow...somehow I missed this thread until now. Thank you for the nominations, Doug and Maril - I'm flattered [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img].

I tend to like the names which are a little out of the way and whose meanings aren't immediately obvious ... which would be about 99% of the names here...

LUSH: Because the word brings a whole host of images to mind at once, all of them vivid [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img].

MARILEANGORIFURNIMALUIM (did I spell that right?): Because it's so friggin' long, it MUST mean something deeply important.

DOUG*PLATYPUS: Again, the reference is mysterious enough that there must be some heavy significance behind it. Doug, where does the platypus come from?

THE SAUCEPAN MAN: Just because it sounds cool.

BILL FERNY: As someone said before, just because it takes chutzpah to call yourself that. I'm still waiting to see someone sign up as "Slant-eyed Southerner".

RAEFINDEL: For having to courage to make a personal coinage in Elvish.

HERENISTARION: Just because it sounds cool.

And quite a few more that are on the tip of my tongue (or fingers) but which I can't quite remember right now...

Nuinatariel · 02-16-2003, 12:59 PM

I nominate Skippy the Nazgul. How can you not like a Nazgul named Skippy? [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

elven maiden Earwen · 02-16-2003, 01:32 PM

gosh there so many and lot of them have already been said.
Anything But Arwen
Skippy The Nazgul
Aylwen Dreamsong
Lush
The Barrow-Weight Beren 87
Im going to stop there but there are soooo many more good ones. Sorry to anyone if i spelled you nick wrong. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Hilde Bracegirdle · 02-19-2003, 11:42 AM

Did I see "Sauron999 member number 666" the other day. Yikes that is scary! Couldn't we have skipped over THAT member number?

Salix · 02-19-2003, 01:44 PM

Dang! I have a nomination, but I can't remember the name. Oh well. I like all the names mentioned. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] Seriously, I don't have a favorite.

Diamond18 · 02-19-2003, 01:46 PM

Sauron999 is just Balin999's alter ego. I think he did it on purpose. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Carlas · 02-19-2003, 05:56 PM

I want to add Lush ! Its simple, sophisticated, and just fun!

P.S. Love your sig. Diamond [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Wow, my 50th post! I'm so proud!

What is Balin999 member number ... 13?

Balin999 · 02-20-2003, 12:45 PM

hey that was not done on purpose! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
of course, I don't mind having the member number 666 as Sauron999, but I didn'T even notice until someone told me. Nevertheless I think it's cool [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
With Balin999 I was Member Number 3 or 5, but it has somehow risen to 61 and the same was the case with burrahobbit. They changed the numbers for some reason. (for the mods, I think)

Nuinatariel · 02-20-2003, 04:37 PM

I have found a new nominee. Balrog Skwerl. Creative, and it has the word 'skwerl' in it. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Hilde Bracegirdle · 02-20-2003, 06:17 PM

Well met Balin999/Sauron999. Glad that you don't seem too beastly!

avarrogion · 02-22-2003, 06:50 PM

CAn i vote my own nick? ...nah just joking
Here`s my vote :

1. The Saucepan Man ( reminds me of a character from Legend of Mana )
2. WarBringer

Gorwingel · 02-22-2003, 08:49 PM

Merri, thank you for nominating me [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
That makes me so happy, I did not expect that [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

Gorothlammothiel · 02-23-2003, 12:53 PM

I'd like to add a nomination if I may.

Lady Aerowen has always impressed me, though I have not encounted her on the forum for quite some time now. Now I don't know that the name was created before the release of the films (or even that the ramble that follows is in anyway significant), if it was then it is an odd coincidence that the Lady Aerowen should be a play on the lady Arwen, and that she was portrayed by a certain very famous rock stars daughter, no? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Balin999 · 02-24-2003, 03:03 PM

Hm, after your description, I'm not a beast (whew).
But you don't need to look like a beast, to be one. He he.
Well, I guess I'm rather a nice person, so you don't need to be afraid of corresponding with someone who's mad, Hilde Bracegirdle.

Hilde Bracegirdle · 02-25-2003, 11:56 AM

You’re not planning on taking over the world and enslaving the free peoples are you? Some people would call that a mad idea, some wouldn’t. All kidding aside, you are right, beasts don’t always look beastly and some who look beastly are quite often very nice, (not that I know any with hooves of course).

Sadbh · 02-25-2003, 01:32 PM

How can you choose who has the best nick? There are so many great ones!

1. Anything but Arwen
2. burrahobbit
3. Lush

And there are too many more to add. But I think the awards for the most unpronouncable nick go to Maril as well as the award for most syllables. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

However, I would like to nominate myself for the strangest spelling. Sadbh is a name, and is pronouncable, just very confusing. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Don't listen to me, I've gone insane.

But you don't need to look like a beast, to be one. He he. Well, I guess I'm rather a nice person, so you don't need to be afraid of corresponding with someone who's mad, Hilde Bracegirdle. __________________ ...Nichts ist gelber als Gelb selber... ...The opposite of courage in our society is not cowardice, but conformity... ...Everything is possible, except to ski through a revolving door...

Some people would call that a mad idea, some wouldn’t. All kidding aside, you are right, beasts don’t always look beastly and some who look beastly are quite often very nice, (not that I know any with hooves of course).

Lush And there are too many more to add. But I think the awards for the most unpronouncable nick go to Maril as well as the award for most syllables. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] However, I would like to nominate myself for the strangest spelling. Sadbh is a name, and is pronouncable, just very confusing.
