        Before GFY, I typically used one of two other nicks for all of my online stuff.

        While I have been online since the beginning (bbs days), and in this industry since 1997, I did not really get involved on the industry boards until 2003. I simply lurked until around 2005 when I became more active, and then picked this handle based on the niche, and branding. No other reason.

          I used the name "Nickname" before but It got confusing so I switched to Nicky, don't know why I use either of em since my real name is Daniel lol. It's been too long to change now though.

              I had to think long and hard about it. Was I going to call myself Paul Markham, Markham Paul of just "A crap photographer whose made lots of money.

              Charly was my first Nick that least a year. It was a stage name I had used in movies as an actor.

                        While working for Coca Cola I developed a device that load tested vending machine circuit boards, I called it Vendzilla
                        It kinda stuck after that
                        Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
                        think about that

                            When I created my first aol account back in the days of dial up, I had problems finding a good screen name. I ended up with ilibarcodesili, aol used sans serif fonts and it looked like lllBARCODESlll. This sounds ridiculous now but back then I used to customize my aol profile, make it animate etc using aols butchered version of html. Everyone who did it had a cool, hackerish sounding name and that was mine. =D

                            I widdled it down to barcodes over time, I guess out of laziness? lol

                                  When I created my company I tried to think of something that was easy to remember and would stick in your head. Sarah Designs sounded silly. Z is a very unique letter that does not have that many common names starting with it that I could think of. Zoo something was what I was trying to use. I was working on cam and running a cam studio and had a model named Zuzana and fell in love with the name cause it had 2 z's in it.

                                    Easy. TBS stands for The Barcelona Summit and Andreas is my first name.

                                    As you will all realize now: My nick is outdated, as The Barcelona Summit became The European Summit ... so my nick should read TES_Andreas now

                                                  My name is Richard, and I changed the "i" in Richard to "o" and came up with "Rochard", pronounced ROCKhard. It's because I'm "always hard at work", meaning I have a stiffy or I'm a hard worker - but usually both.

                                                        I've used sarettah since around 94 or 95. I needed a unique username for swbell I think it was and I had the word hatteras written on a nearby piece of paper so I typed it in backwards and have been using it since.

                                                        Little did I know that it is apparently a girls name in italian.

                                                          I built a site for a Playboy model back in 97, a bunch of us were in Vegas and she kept telling everyone what a wizard I was at building websites. We went to the Excalibur to shoot craps and there's a little wizard on the $100 chips named Wizzo, so she started calling me Wizzo along with everyone else and nicname just stuck.

                                                            I got the spaz nick because I ask a LOT of questions. sometimes one answer will lead to multiple questions and I tend to get excited about good things and upset about bad things... sometimes out of proportion. The labz was added when I started a video editing/trans-coding company years and years ago (now defunct). And I liked the sound of spazlabz
