Please redirect me if this topic already exists, but I couldn't find one. I put this in the music section 'cause if you're like me, you never check anything else, so sorry if it doesn't belong here. Anyway, I was curious where people's usernames came from. Kind of a nerdy topic, especially for all you too cool folks with just the boring birthname as username approach, but play along if you don't mind.

Alright, my username. My first name is Caleb, and a few years ago I played club soccer with a guy who started calling me K-leb Tweli (mixing up the rapper Talib Kweli's name to sound like mine, obv). I liked it, so I modified it a bit (kalib) and adopted it as an online moniker. Your turn!

there is an egg on the cover of A ghost is born by Wilco, my fav record. And Jeff Tweedy is the band's leader, so that's it.

Emperor was the best black metal band of all time, and they had a song, "I Am The Black Wizards". Combine this with the red wizard class from early Final Fantasy games, and voila! You have "I Am The Red Wizards"

my first name-just indie, at the time i only liked indie music

my 2nd name-the national spoon of montreal-3 bands i liked blended into a cool name. sweet

physical combat-i dont really know why i chose this name to be honest with you.

Most of mine have been obscure names from the Simpsons

The current is derived from “Little Jamshed” called upon to watch over the Kwik-E-Mart by Apu in the episode “Homer the Heretic.” Little Jamshed cocks out a shotgun and says “I have waited for this day” Jimbo, Kerny, and Dolph freeze in their tracks. I just thought that scene was hilariously.

I later modified it to J’Shed, and had been referred to as simply “Shed” by other users. Not too long ago I saw a picture of SuperTed while I was messing around on MC and decided to put Super with Shed.

"pianofaerie" is a combination of my favourite non-vocal instrument (the piano, which I play), and my perhaps-naive belief in fairies, faeries, etc., however you want to spell it, and other planes of existence. The "solid brass. ring it!" is lifted from an amazing episode of Strangers With Candy. "It's the Liberty Bell. See the crack? Solid brass. Ring it!"

Catch-22
