  1. Ouch, yeah, that can happen. Recurves have some serious pull to them, which is why I usually have finger tabs on most of the time. Arcus' bow is actually nearly identical to my bow in real life, except for the fact that my recurve isn't a takedown. Sure wish it was, though, it would make it a lot more convenient to carry!

    My broken finger wasn't related to archery though...I had my finger tabs on :(.  Maybe I'll pick it up gain some day...it's a good sport.

  2. Because I love archery, of course! And Latin words... eventually, my name morphed into an OC of the same name, and same old love for archery! :D

    (And for those that don't know, "Arcus" is "arrow" in Latin!)

    I was very much "into" archery last year.  I still have a wood recurve and a set of eclipse steel alloy arrows.  Used a sight and stabilizer and all.  Kinda gave up on it though, especially after I broke my finger :/

  3. My real life first and last names are the weirdest names I've come across so far.

    I have no idea if anybody, aside from relatives, has this name. It's ridiculously weird, but it apparently means "God of Friendship", in Hindu, a language spoken in places far, far away from where I live.

    One more thing.

    I have the same name as a brand of cooking oil.

    Yep.

    Interesting...very interesting indeed.  Whoever chose your name clearly wanted you to watch My Little Pony; Friendship is Magic.  Ironic, eh?  Oh dear-I just said "eh".  So canadienne of me...

  4. It's my name backwards.

    My real name is probably just as unique as my online name. I have met no one IRL who has the same name as me. Ironically enough, while my online alias is meant to infer power and authority, the meaning of my real name has both qualities (my name means sun goddess and centre of all things). Huh. Not intended when I came up with my online name.  I promise I have no relation to Princess Celly.  Totally.  No relation at all.

  5. So...>5 people have answered.  Here's my story...

     

    Short Answer: It's my name, with Lyi being my nickname and Stertlings being my surname.  I have no idea where Queen fits in, but somehow, it does.

     

    Long Answer: A million years ago (by exaggeration), I liked to play Neopets.  And just like now, I liked having hundreds (by exaggeration) of characters.  Now, when you like to have many characters, you run out of good name ideas (especially with the site going the whole "this name is already taken" thing for every legitimate name I had wanted); so...I began using my super awesome imagination and named my characters absurd names like "Zhprunfire" and "Leonardylicia" (if I spelled either of them correctly).  Now, I came across this amazing character: she was half horse, half seahorse.  I thought she was very beautiful and regal (I made her colour scheme purple and gold/yellow)-deserving of an equally royal, unique, and beautiful name.  Somehow, Lyipheoryia came about. 

     

    Back then, every single account I had for everything had a different username and password.  The password part was okay, considering safety and such-the username part...not so much.  As per se, I had to click on the "I forgot my username" button quite commonly.  The next time I made another account, I thought...maybe I should use a name I already used, rather than pick a new username.  Lyipheoryia was the first that came to thought, just because how much I personally liked the same.  It represented me, unique, weird, eccentric and all (those area all words I have been described by my friends IRL).  From then on, every username henceforth was Lyipheoryia.

     

    Now...there was a problem.  Named Google+.  When I first made an account, it rebutted my offer on simply Lyipheoryia, and required a last name.  I freaked.  Last name!  What last name?  So...I took a surname from characters in my then-favourite series (The 39 Clues): The Sterling Triplets.  And added a "t", because-originality.  Tada!  Face that-Google!

     

    Stick with me, there's one more story involving my nickname.  There was another problem...every single time I logged on or typed my username/now online alias, there was a 25-50% chance I would spell it wrong.  And there was a 85% chance other people spelled it wrong.  I got quite frustrated after a little while, facing my misspelled name everywhere by me and others.  So, I cut up my name to simply be Lyi.  Simple, right?  No, not simple.  Lyipheoryia can be pronounced phonetically (lie-i-fee-ore-i-a), and so can Stertlings (st-er-t-ling-s).  Lyi, however, cannot.  Was it lie?  Was it lie-i?  Was it lee-i?  I settled on lee...which made people IRL wonder why I had to chose a Chinese last name.  Oh well...it's alright.

     

    Queen came much, much later.  As you see, I like my avatar being Queen Galaxia, and Lyipheoryia itself is quite a regal name.  Lyi was weird-just because no one calls themselves by a Chinese surname.  So, I added Queen in front of it.  There, sounds nice again.  Which paved way to another problem...now, people though Queen was a title, rather than part of my name.  Meh.  That's alright-referring to me as "the most honourable Queen Lyi" is good, too :).

     

    So, that's my story.

  6. I'm active again!  May I request the Princess Celly thread?  I shall do what I had planned for Luna's thread, with journals and quotes to contemplate on.  Each entry will include a quote, a Celly reflection, an (hopefully) an image.  There may be a collab at some point with Luna's thread if allowed.
