HBK · 22nd May 2021, 17:29

Have been an avid WWE/WWF fan and hence the username is based on one of my favourite wrestlers i.e. Shawn Michaels. HBK (heart break kid) is his nickname and over the years I have been using this as my name/username on various websites/forums.
P.S. My favourite wrestler is John Cena.
The Champ is here.

An Otto cycle is an idealized thermodynamic cycle that describes the functioning of a typical spark ignition piston engine. It is the thermodynamic cycle most commonly found in automobile engines.

RavyaLe · 2nd September 2021, 12:53

My Name is Ravi, My friends call me 'Ravya', and 'Le' is a much-appreciated suffix added in Uttarakarnataka names. I would like to know by RavyaLe name here in Teambhp.

My name is Akhil Deo and my friends used to call me "Akhs" sounds as "axe". Hence, my username "axe_deo"

I'm ScorpioYadav but I don't own a Scorpio !!

My username is based on my Sun sign + my Family Surname.

Background : A cousin had created his email id with his Sun sign & our family surname, he was a Piscean. Impressed by him, I created this one as mine when a gmail invite came around back in those days.

I can also be found on Twitter with the same username/handle.
The same format was later used by my father when he created his twitter handle. he is a Taurus !!

A350 · 3rd September 2021, 14:42

It is the model no of my first vehicle a 2001 Royal Enfield Machismo A350.

Very good thread!

Slayer23 used to be my alias in online games while at collage [Counterstrike, Quake3, DOTA]. This has since stuck with me as username for anything and everything. Slayer because it seemed apt for a violent videogame and 23 because I was born on a 23rd.

I still use this as the username wherever it is available. Somethings just stick with you

HumbleBee · 3rd September 2021, 20:11

Well, one of my favourite car is the Porsche 911 (especially the GT3 Touring). According to me it looks very cute and humble . That's where the "Humble" part comes from. And out of multiple videos I've seen about the 911, the 911 slays, rather stings its competion (just like a bee) . That's where the "Bee" part comes. Therefore, HumbleBee.

How did you come up with your username?

My username is made up by name and star sign and my favorite Human Race ..
My name is Hari Krishna and i am born in March .. so my sunsign is Aries and that makes me an Arian ... and i always was fascinated by the Aryan race since my childhood.. So my half name HAR and My star sign ARIAN ..
HAR + ARIAN + HEAVY INFLUENCE OF ARYAN = HARYAN ..

As I am found of roads and venturing on road is kind of passion engraved. Thus, roadie@76.

My first new car, bought at the end of the nineties, was an Excel Grey Matiz SD.
Cost me a few years of gross salary but was proud of my acquisition. And crazy about little Mattu too. Hence the moniker.

RR96 · 21st September 2021, 08:10

My Username RR96 has the first letters of my first name and last name. 96 represents my birthday. Also I hope RR96 sounds similar to VR46

mazda4life · 21st September 2021, 09:10

My username 'mazda4life' professes my love and passion for all things Mazda, which I think reflects my tastes of being understated at the same time stylish and well engineered. I have had in my stable some of the best Mazda that were ever built from Sedan to Minivan and since then nothing has come to give me the joy those cars have gave me. Hopeful that once I again move back to US, will be able to buy my beloved brand and this time miata https://www.mazdausa.com/vehicles/2021-mx-5-miata

AdityaDeane · 21st September 2021, 09:29

For me it was easy, it's just my name, without my middle name.
Full Name: Aditya Samuel Deane
Handle: AdityaDeane
Easy peasy...

@MODS - May be off topic - but is there an option to change the username in TeamBHP? I feel I chose one in a hurry, and never thought that the display name will be same as the username.
