If it's frustrating enough to change your user name, it's frustrating enough.
I'd love to be able to have the username Jérôme, but it wont let me use the accents, and just plain Jerome is already taken. sad
EDIT: My, Gaia really doesn't like accented letters at all does it? You'd think it's trying to Americanise us, by not allowing us to do so. sweatdrop

You could do what I did you know, Aziraphale and [Aziraphale] are already taken, put ` before the name (or after)

Well yeah, I could do that, but... you know, I just don't think it looks as good, no offence though to your name. >_>

Well I guess if you really want the name, and you're willing, then by all means. Can't say I've ever heard of the name you're using now, so what is it from, or what does it mean?

Its the angel from Good Omens actually. I always though the name was pretty shibby, and of course, the irony of me having a Devil's Tail is always shibby.
It was either this or a random book out of the Old Testament. I like religious references.

Yes, I like using book references as well, and if I ever come up with anything religious, it either comes from Neon Genesis or one of Dan Browns books. xd
When I joined, I tried Paragon which is from a book but was taken, and my mule is Kettricken, which is also a character from a book.

Well, all mine are references to something else as well, to be honest, Im thinking Ecclesiastes would have been a shibbier name, but its too hard to spell, I typo it almost everytime I try to spell it. Although Lamentations has a nice ring to it, considering my current state (it is a book from the Old Testament). but thats a little emo and the reference is bound to get lost on more people then this one.
And yeh, methinks a lot of people steal pseudo-religious references from them, not that I blame them, I have too ^^
Evangelion - Evangelism . . . there is probably a reason for the similarity, probably some Japanese attempt at the word Evangelist. considering the "angels" are supposably better translated as being disciples or messengers, its just more . . . dramatic for them to be angels.

Ecclesiastes sounds Greek actually. Well the EVA are the Evangelion, which I always just figured was the personified form of an evangelist, though with a cooky Japanes Mecha twists, as they always love doing.

I think Ecclesiastes is Greek actually, I can't remember the book though, but I'm pretty sure the Old Testament was in more than just Latin and Hebrew.
And yeh, the Eva were the Evangelion, which brought the message of peace by destroying the antagonists. . . or something like that, they are very evangelistic in their nature xp Lets not bother with this though, tis a shibby name, a shibby show and there are a lot of red herrings there. The name is probably one of them.

Yus, Neon Genesis was a very shibby show. I'm sure we could sit and discuss it for hours trying to understand it, and barely even get anywhere with it.
And yes, I think there was a Greek Bible before there was a Latin one, probably due the Greece's closer proximity to Jerusalem than Rome.

I wish I did as well. It's probably good that I never got enough money to by the box-set of the original, especially with the directors cut versions now out. 3nodding
Is it some guy posting inapropriate images? I was on GD before and managed to see a couple of threads like that.
