Lily the Pink: I always liked the name Lily and I used tigerlily as an alias online all the time when I was a...newbie. But then I became friends with these three guys who sang an old British drinking song called Lily the Pink (Lyrics) And it grew on me.

[Shazbot_the_Pirate]

Ryan is an Irish-Gaelic name and means 'Little King'.

My two middle names, Thomas and Peter are biblical in nature, both of whom were Christ's disciples. They are the names of my mom's father and dad's father, respectively.

My last name, Røed, is a Norwegian derivative of Roe, which is in turn a derivative of the Norse word for 'Clearing'.

Shazbot_the_Pirate comes from my nickname (Shazbot) and a liking for pirates.

My nickname Shazbot was used on an old show called 'Mork and Mindy' as a replacement for s**t. It's used in an online game called Tribes in the same way. I just liked the way it sounded and used as my handle when my friends and I played LAN matches. Another nickname of mine, Shazzamatazz is simply a combination of Shazbot and Razzamatazz.

My previous nickname was Captain. I'm not really sure how I got it, but I go by the username Captain Shazbot on a number of different message boards.  

[snarechan]

Snarechan/Snare-chan/Snare dates back to my youngin' days when a show called Ronin Warriors aired on Cartoon Network. I loved the semi-evil villians - titled the Warlords - the most. Two characters - Dais, a white-haired, one-eyed gentleman who controlled illusions/spiders and Sekhmet, a green-haired, purple-eyeshadow-wearing guy who had power of poison/snakes - were my utmost favorite of them.

Though Dais was my #1, the Snare in the name derives from Sekhmet's affinity for snakes. Both words start with 'sna' and snakes tend to 'ensnare' their food. The 'chan' is just from the Japanese, in how they add them to names to indicate status and whatnot.

Behind the name

KATHERINE
Gender: Feminine

Usage: English

Pronounced: KATH-u-rin, KATH-rin [key]

From the Greek name Αικατερινη (Aikaterine). The etymology is debated: it could derive from the earlier Greek name ‘Εκατερινη (Hekaterine), which came from ‘εκατερος (hekateros) "each of the two"; it could derive from the name of the goddess HECATE; it could be related to Greek αικια (aikia) "torture"; or it could be from a Coptic name meaning "my consecration of your name". The Romans associated it with Greek καθαρος (katharos) "pure" and changed their spelling from Katerina to Katharina to reflect this.
The name belonged to a 4th-century saint and martyr from Alexandria who was tortured on the famous Catherine wheel. Another saint by this name was Catherine of Siena, a 14th-century mystic. This name was also borne by two empresses of Russia, including Catherine the Great, and by three of Henry VIII's wives.
