Lofty

My name was actually given to me, I chose to keep it. :3
Main influential factor would be due to my love of flying and the many accomplishments in my short life so far.

Lofty.
[lawf-tee]  Extending high in the air; of imposing height; towering: lofty mountains. 

Merrick

I had chosen the name Merrick Maverick for an alias many-a-year ago, but never really knew the meaning. I just looked it up and Merrick means Fame Rule. I assume it means fame rules over my actions and emotions, which is true because I act like I have an ego bigger then a blimp. When really it's only the size of a 2 story house.

Maverick for a surname I have known that it means something along the lines of "operson who takes chances, departs from accepted course." I have been known to try some VERY stupid risks and make it out completely fine.

I guess the whole meaning means: Fame rules over the radical. I take chances for the fame  receive from them I guess.

Drake Wingfire


Drake Wingfire

Drake Wingfire.. hmmm

A name that has no particular meaning, I came up with the name for myself back when I was.. what 14? if I recall
at that time I was really lacking any sorta creative skills so really I kinda went on my looks as inspiration for a name.

Drake; that first name just came to me as a very subtle and nice name all be it sorta generic in the world of dragons XD  Drake = Bob when compared to human names pretty much XD (no offense to any other drakes here ^.=.^; )

Wingfire; .. look at my dragon self, I don't think I need to explain XD though the dragon last name is something I had from the beginning as well as I knew I wouldn't be the only Drake to roam the world, its usually why I always call myself/ have the user name "Drake Wingfire" everywhere, so people know who I am XD

CatNamedOwl

The first time I went into an IRC furry chatroom, I did so with the name OwlCity, seeing as it's my favourite band. Everyone called me Owl, and the name caught on.

But there was a problem. Everyone thought I WAS an owl, and after multiple explanations, I decided it was time for a name change, not to mention I didn't even have my species down! (I was new to the furry fandom at the time)

So I did some research, decided I was best fit for a cat, and the rest is history.

Fun Fact: My fursona sort of evolved from the name itself, I am a cat that has an identity crisis, often acting like an owl, trying to fly at times! It's quite cute, hoo...

;D

Awesome trait. :3

Sheppy

Mine is just for "German Shepherd" which kinda describes my personality. Unfortunately it's fairly generic and doesn't describe things such as my love of cars...

HexV

There's nothing really special about my name... just a little bit of history, really.

HexV is a shortened down version of Hex_Vain, which was a handle I used online a long time ago. Eventually I just started to dislike the appearance of Hex_Vain and tried to alter it, using HexV2000, Hexean, Hex, and the current flavour HexV.

Unfortunately, that's as interesting as it gets for me. No real sentimental meaning or anything behind it, just an online handle that stuck to me like glue.
AM NOT A BUNNY!

AM NOT A RABBIT!

I AM HARE! HAAAAAARE!!!

tokar

for me there are two stories.  one the truth and one for other people. 

first the other peoples version.  i used to driver a tow truck and visited a friend who's son was learning to talk.  when he saw a truck he would say what it did such as dump twuck, buth, fire twuck, and a tow truck was "tow car" for what it did.  when i went to visit one day his son saw the tow truck and yelled out - "tow car , tow car" so when my friend opened the door he said welcome tow car which i changed to tokar which is an actual scottish name and i have scottish roots.

now the truth.  i used to drive a tow truck and i toke so i amalgamated the two - tow car and toker - and came up with tokar.  please note it is spelled in lower case.
1 ton truck available for hire.  contact me by personal message for info

Nibi

Oh my...I used to be a huge Narutard in middle school, so about 6 years ago. You know how there's Kyuubi right? Naruto's demon? They have 9 demons in total and the second (two tailed) one was called "Nibi No Nekomata". I loved cats and Naruto, so I made it my username. Later I just shortened it to "Nibi No Neko" because it was annoying to type all of the time. :-3 Now I have shortened it to Nibi, which can have an entirely different meaning, but it's grown on me too much to change it.

Carl Foxmarten

Carl because it's very close to how my real first name sounds, and Foxmarten because he's half Red Fox, half Pine Marten. =^.^=
