Your Names
I see all sorts of interesting names here. Share what they mean, how you ventured into creating the name, what inspired you, and if the name is what you had on IMDb.

shareWell, I started by making a list of cool-sounding names of people and places from my favorite movies/series. Two of the best of the list were Princess Leia from Star Wars and Lothlorien, the beautiful Elven kingdom of Lord of the Rings. They sound glorious together, and my creative mind thought of how awesome it would be if Leia was an elf. So viola, my username was born.
I never actually had an account on IMDb, because I mostly lurked the message boards and looked up trivia.
That's a nice tribute to both franchises, though! Good call!
shareThank you! š
I thought about doing something with Game of Thrones, too, like Targaryen or Stormborn or First of Her Name... but it was getting long anyway and I like the alliteration as is. And I can never remember if it's TargaryAn or TargaryEn. I think it's the latter. šš¤
King of lotuses. Parents. Parents. The same, but lowercase than the one I had on IMDb.
shareMy name is one of the pubs the gang goes to in Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.
shareOlio is creature in finnish language. I added the z because olio was already taken in imdb. I could have changed it now but I've been using it for over 13 years.
shareA language variation of my IMDB handle
shareStratego was also my username on IMDb since 2001. When I had to make up a name, I was sitting behind the computer in the attic staring at some old games on the shelves next to me. 'Stratego' actually wasn't one of them, but 'Guess Who?' was already taken and 'Fashion Wheel' sounded kind of lame...
