Rizumu is a japanese romanization of the english word "rhythm". As to why I picked it, your guess is as good as mine. I needed a new nick, I like music, I like japanese and it sounded cool? Highly plausible

Chinchy is short for Chinchilla. I used to have one, and that's what I called him. Wasn't very imaginative. I used to have a hamster too. I called him hamstie. I'll let you guess what I called my dog. It gets harder with an aquarium of fish, but somehow it works since I can't tell any of them apart.

Actually come to think of it, I call almost all my friends some form of their name ending in -y. I just think it's kinda cute.

Of course it gets into weird situations, since because I'm Chinese, people have misinterpreted it as Chinky. Ah well.

The very day I chose my screen name was the very day I was 1. being educated about the old German zepellin blimps used for war by my uncle who is obsessed with war history and 2. listening to Led Zeppelin for one the first times and being completely moved by the artistic geneous of the music!
I quickly typed in the name zeplin thinking that was the right way to spell it and left it at that. I then soon realized that I had spelled it wrong but kept it that way to be "different" and because it's easier to type zeplin instead of Zeppelin...all the holding down shift and remembering how to spell each time I have to type it

Something of a generic british name (akin to John Smith so I hear - maybe one of you UK types can verify this?). I use this name for all my online forms and free registration stuff. Some Tommy Atkins somewhere is getting a bunch of junk mail...

No, my name's not tommy.

To get my nickname, I took the first two letters of my first name, the first two letters of my middle name, and the first three letters of my last name.

The "42" is a desperate attempt to add a Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy reference.

Nick Danger is a recurring character from the minds of "Firesign Theater".
Occasionally I am seen as "regnad kcin" which is the name nick sees as he's sitting in his office gazing through his door window while waiting for clients.

My name is more of an inside joke between me and a couple of friends. To be blunt, my methods of computer modding are quite ghetto, cardboard and duct tape are common tools of mine, so i've been dubbed ebonyks (A ebonics translatation of ebonics).
