    Eternal Evolutionposted 14 years ago

    the reason i picked mine is because the actual screen name i like was too long to fit lol. i wanted to use eternal metamorphosis, this is the name i use on most every thing i do. my life has been full of changes and i myself am always changing thus i chose a name meaning forever changing. i decided to go with eternal evolution because is means basicly the same thing. to evelove is to chang thus eternal evolution seemed to be a good replacement.

    so why do you use your screen name?

    In fact it is entitled nickname corner....how did you get yours?smile It is o.k. though it is always great to answer the same question although it is phrased differently.
    I use my middle name as my first initial and my last name, nothing extravagant. smile

    Ghost32posted 14 years ago

    Ghost is the nickname with which I was tagged while working as a truck driver in the Colorado gasfield drilling boom.  Had to pick a number (there apparently being other Ghosts out there), and 32 is the number of aspects of Eckankar, the religion of the Light and Sound of God, of which I've been a member since 1974.

    emievilposted 14 years ago

    My reason is kind of boring. Emievil is actually a combination of my nickname - Emie and the first three letters of my married name. But one of my friends who saw my nickname interpreted it differently. She said it looked like two words - Emi + Evil smile. Didn't realize that until she told me smile.

    Mines the name of an old Egyptian God Kephri Ra - the morning sun. I just liked the poetic image of the God of the morning sun. I don't see it very often now I don't have to for work, but dawn is a beautiful time of the day.
