My Screen name Valjean87 came from 2 things:
Valjean: the character from "Les Miserables" in which is my favourite character from the show. The 87 part came from the year I was born, 1987. So how special everyone's screen name came from and where does it originate from?

Interesting thread! lol Okay, mine actually doesn't have much meaning to it... I was obsessed with Les Mis then and wanted a French kind of name... and since my real name starts with M, I figured I wanted a name that starts with that same alphabet.  |

Ok, there's this game called Warcraft 2. And I was part of this forum that had all to do with Warcraft, anyway, there's a character in the game called Zul'Jin. Couple of typos later and I have a distinctily individual screen name that I now use for everything. And just so you all know, it's pronounced 'Zoo-Gin' as in a place where they keep animals and the drink containing alcohol.

The Three Musketeers, natch, and the desire for a new handle. I was in need, my love for De 3 Musketiers was there... and the rest is history.

Well Eppy is short for Eponine and it's kind of a jokey nickname my friend has for me. So as it's kind of musically related I decided to use that as my name. =]

I've been using this nick online for a couple of years now. Originally I made the longer version (Ciarana) up in a hurry and I still don't know where it came from, but since then it has been the other me.  |

My username came about in many ways.
WAY ONE: The Robittussin Cough Medicine
WAY TWO: My First Name being Robert
WAY THREE: I wanted to create my own version of Pokemon and Robintusin seemed a good name for a pokemon. It is the only I can remember and no-one ever has it so I use it.

Well my name is Hilary, but everyone just calls me Hill. When some family came to visit from Scotland a few years ago, my one uncle was like Hill is too vulgar. I'm going to call you Brae ... and it kind of stuck.

well last april I was in Les Miserables Student Version and I played Eponine. Everyone played around with the name, calling me poutine and such along with EPO9 and so I used it ... it can be pronounced as eep-O-9 or just plain eponine.
