Anyway, explanation for one of the other usernames I use (sceadu):

Middle English shadwe, from Old English sceaduw-, sceadu shade

Shade and shadow are not only related in meaning; historically they are the same word. In Old English, the ancestor of Modern English spoken a thousand years ago, nouns were inflected; that is, they had different forms depending on how they were used in a sentence. One of the inflected forms of the Old English noun sceadu, translatable as either

I was just curious why people chose their user names. Was there a certain reason for this? Did it just sound cool? I also wanted to clear up the reasons for my user name, people had told me it was strange.

I chose mine, because i like the word oasis. i saw one of the definitions of oasis A situation or place preserved from surrounding unpleasantness; a refuge.

i found the idea that opposites attract fascinating eg. An oasis of serenity amid chaos.

I believe that i have a sensible level of intellect, so i decided to incorporate that in the name: an oasis of intelligence amid stupidity. I wasn't sure if i used it in the right context, but i thought it sounded subtly aggressive and kinda funky. I liked the concept.

I thought that entire sentence/phrase would've been to long to make a member name so i decided that there is an oasis surrounded by mindlessness; as a replacement of the water.

There is a sense of wit in there, even if only slight.

Enough about me, i would now like to hear about urs (crosses fingers and hopes for a reply)
