Story behind your username?

Arame:
Arame is a Brazilian Portuguese for “Wire”

In Capoeira, we Capoeiristas are given a code name based on a characteristic that stands out. My temper is my most notable trait so I was given the name, Wire because of how “High Strung” I am

JN_TumLover56:
Oh that’s interesting. I’ve heard about certain cultures that do that. Especially when it comes to whatever handle people call you based on personality and whatnot.


Well I can’t speak for other cultures. But in Capoeira, the whole reason we get code names is because practicing Capoeira was illegal. So if a Capoeirista was arrested and interrogated to give up the rest of the group, he/she would give the police the group member’s code name so the cops could never find them.

Story behind your username?

So my username is not fat related or feederism related at all, but it does have a bit of a history:

So back in the day when I was a skinny optimistic little fella, I spend a vast majority of my time playing World of Warcraft. One of my oldest characters, who is a druid (essentially nature wielding animal shapeshifter) name is Nymphweed

So in my young innocent mind, I thought my name would be something like this: Nymph = fairies or fae related things and then Weed = nature related

Felt quite fitting

Unfortunately, I got to learn about the term "Nymphomaniac" AKA Sex Obsession if I am not wrong, after people asking me about it

So occassionally people would ask me if I was smoking pot and had a high sex drive randomly. So despite me having a innocent intention with my name, well, it did not come across the way I wanted most of the time in random encounters

The name stuck around for several years and it just became my "online name" among my friends, with most of them I still am good friends with after almost 10 years

Been playing since 2004 and still playing even to this day

Eventually I switched Nymph around to Nymf, as I got a biased big interest in norse mythology, so I gave it a bit of a scandinavian version of it

Now its just my internet name, and hearing my real one sometimes feel wierd as I hear it so rarely these days

I dont live chronically online, but back in the day, being unemployed and living with depression, I very much was. Spent many many hours online and rarely left my house, seeing people and even times where I would go 1-2 days without eating anything due to declining mood

Im in a better place these days and my name continous onwards, with a lot of good memories attached to it, people I met online and it just feels like a part of me
