So whats the story behind the name?

I play chess (a lot). This is one of my favorite openings.

I will just quote myself, 'cuz I am too tired to retype it : [rquoter]If you ever meet me, you will see my hairstyle is not of a FRO, not of a MULLET, not of a SASQUATCH, but it was a huge wig-like structure, since I let it grow so long and puffy for a play in High School. My friends saw this, and they said I had a "SWOLLEN" head. This stuck for a while, and I was all of a sudden "SWOLE", "SWOLY", and "SWO" for variations.

Around that time, Heavy D was doing that "ba-diddly-diddly-DEE" song with Sprite, and Heavy D was famous... then, the Mexican dudes that hung out with me started rapping the same song to "Swoly-D, SwoLy-D", and the name stuck since. If anyone from High School finds me on boards or CF.net, they will know it's me. Hey, it rhymes with SwoLy-D!

p.s. It's not "slow" or "slowly" or "swd"... it's SwoLy-D, and the DASH is silent.[/RQUOTER]

 

I always thought you were a fan of Dontrelle Willis. that's what I se when I look at your name.

My name means M--- L------WOO-.

 

OK! Slowly!

 

It's a permutation of a HS nickname I got from my VB coach, as a twist on the popular phrase regarding Eggo waffles.

I was in VB practice one day, running some drill with the varsity coach, when the freshman coach came into the gym asking if she could borrow someone. The freshman coach started saying "Hey Meghan, come here" since I wasn't actually doing the drill, but more like monitoring it (it's sort of hard to explain). The varsity coach yelled at the freshmen coach, "HEY! LEGGO MY MEGGO!"

The entire VB team stopped the drill and practically died laughing. I certainly didn't live it down while I was in HS, and since I still have a few friends from HS I talk to regularly, I don't see me getting rid of it any time soon. But really, it grew on me, and now I try to use Meggo in most of my usernames if at all possible.

 

You are wrong.

"Am" is implied at the ending of the comparison so you would not say "he is better than me am".

 

Mine is a shortened version of my name.

 

william blake

 

First name Julio...
And my last name starts with an R, but I tried making it look like the Rockets logo. -R-

 

I've also been told that Mario's first name was Jumpman.

 

("jc" my initials) ("ee" items of flair) ("15" favorite jersey #)

 

Mine comes from a nickname given to my favorite guitar player George Lynch.

 

A black dude actually told me about the site and told me that CF needed another brother.

 

freshman year of college I was playing CS and needed a screen name and my roommate walked into the room and says "yo! yo!" so i took it from there I added the The portion of it to make it sounds lot more official

 

Apollo Creed is tizzight

 

I used to date figure skater Nicole Bobek. I added the 'r' for anonymity (which I have now given up).

 

Really?

 

On your forum title, what does "Vamos Los Astros" mean and how did you get that?

 

Manny, I thought you knew that already. It's a grammatically incorrect Spanish phrase meaning: "Let's go ASTROS". [if written correctly, it would be "Vamos, ASTROS"

I will let him answer the reason for getting that. I guess it's the same reason a custom "Hangout Boy" or "Random Idiot" gets designated?

 

My first name is Ken, and Glad is part of my last name.
