Well hello,
I don't know if you really read this, but I thought that it's about time to contribute something to the forums. So here we go.
I consider myself being a fun-person and "Sockenfussel" (the fuzz or fluff of socks) was part of the first discussions with my boyfriend, who is now my hubby. Whenever we had a shower or a bath together  ( don't care if you are shocked, that's the true story)... well on this occasions this fluff or fuzz was something I noticed negatively. So my condition for mutual bath-meetings was the absence of sockenfussel (=his clean feet).
So actually, in the beginning I didn't like Sockenfussel, I don't like them still, but I liked the word as such and I got used to the idea of sticking with him like his sockenfussel... ain't that romantic? No it's not... it's gross... 
Avatar: Is Bethany Sloan from Dogma obviously, a movie I adore... among many others, I like her character and her name, which I used as a nickname before. |

Take your pick - one of these answers might even be true 
Answer 1: What are you talking about? Dragonel is my name.
Answer 2: I love & collect dragons so it was just a dragon-sounding name
Answer 3: "elle" being French for "she" Dragonelle used to be she-dragon, but also sounded like a cute little dragon. Then I grew not so little or cute and it became Dragonel.
Answer 4: This is the twelfth website I've logged into as a Dragon, so it is Dragon-L (having started with Dragonay or Dragon-A)
Answer 5: Shortened version of Dragon-Lurker from when I used to listen but not chat.
Answer 6: I love & collect dragons and my human name begins with L, so it was Dragon-L
Answer 7: When I was irate at incompetence at work, someone called me a dragon and the nickname stuck. I'll admit I partly encouraged it as a fierce reputation helps.
Answer 8: It was supposed to be an anagram for "Real Gonad" but I messed up.
Answer 9: Having lurked for a while, I saw Leviathan12 having so much fun, so I copied him, only becoming Dragon-Leviathan, or Dragonel for short.
Answer 10: I used to be quite a bit plumper than I am now - so it's an anagram of Lard Gone
Answer 11: I had a bout with depression, when I felt like I was a "Drag On Life"
Answer 12: Actually, I'm a guy but I feel I should be a cute girl, so it was Drag One I but everyone thinks the I is a lower-case L
Answer 13: It was a name I was assigned by my brother when he was trying out an RPG "Dragonel the half-hobbit"
Answer 14: It comes from an obscure comic I used to read, "The Adventures of Willard and Pretz", where Dragonel was the name of their pet lizard.
Answer 15: It was supposed to be Dragon-Isle, after the cross-stitch I had just completed, but I mistyped.
Well, actually I'm sure I typed strighat, it was just the computre that messsed up as usaul.

Bah... that reaches back to my very first steps into internet territory. Back then i were a massive Dragonball Z fanboy. Was playing a simple Half Life mod back then called DragonMod Z. Signed up on their board and when i found out the shocking truth that the unique names like "Son Goku" and "Trunks" were already taken i made up my own.
I wantedit to have something to do with King Kai and i wanted an X init. So i fused Kai with Trunks and made the ks an x.... yeah its as lame as that.
Stuck to it by now because i grew quite fond of it. |

Oddkick was my seventeen year old son I lost to Leukemia. He was said to have an "odd kick to his gallop", meaning he didn't feel the need to conform to society. Therefore, I became oddkickmom. |

I don't recall having answered allready on this thread but for all newcomers:
the Dutch-part is obvious, I'm from the Netherlands so that's logical.
The bat-part is derived from the UN-bataljons the Dutch are part of (allthough I wasn't in one but my pal was) Fun-part is that I change the extension *-bat* phonetically according the website I'm logged into.
Therefore you have Dutchbad on various chatboxes,Dutchbet on pokersites, Dutchbed on sites that Nessy isn't allowed to visit  Dutchbite on foodrelated recipe-sites and everything that comes in mind on specific sites that makes a nice nick appropiate will do.

but still everybody understands to which sites I was referring to by stating it like this.
Next time I'll make it: that Nessy is visiting all the time

Well, Mister and Mouse are two of my favourite fictional animals...anyone who's read the Dresden Files will know 'em.
I just liked the way they sound together....
The name is rather deceptive though- I'm a girl:)

You're not the only one in this community who decieves like that. At first I'd guess Angel-eyes were female, Bruiser sounds male to me and so does Victor.
My nickname comes from the game Halo (II) where I was an excellent driver of the 'Ghost', which is a light vehicle there.
It has led to some rumours that I keep a box of (not so) tame ghosts under my bed to scare people with. I will not comment on whether this rumour is true or not...
I've also gone by the name Legende at times, in roleplaying games. That name has quite a large story behind it, but not quite fit for these forums. |
