mine is like if some day, I could type:

Code:
$ ssh bio

That's neat.

Where does neeashade come from? well, the shade was for shadow, our dog at the time.

neea is an acronym for me and my siblings names, (N)athan (E)mily (E)ric (A)nna.

edit: also I was 13 at the time

I have something similar. In the beginning, I went with scharlatan, because I liked the
word and had heard that it is also used in Afghanistan (it's a german word).

Then I started learning a tiny bit of esperanto and got to know about suffixes and prefixes,
so I had the idea of

pra-nom-ostro (ancient name master).

Turns out the correct ending would be estro, pranomestro.
I still like the sound of it, and when pranomostro is reserved (which occurs quite rarely,
but still happens), I can still use pranomestro.

i was hanging out on the notorious S.I.N. (self induced negativity) bbs when silicon toad told me xero was a much cooler name than zero. the rest is history.
It's good. Short, memorable, and unique.
