Best Username

This might be a stupid thread, but I often find myself laughing at the cleverness of Tiki Central members usernames.

Anyhow, my vote goes to:
Sabu the Coconut Boy

Every time I see this I start to laugh.

And a handsome boy he is.

His turban is even bigger in person.

Wersmo Derinc is one of my favorite usernames.

That's a pic of my buddy Sabu before all the plastic surgery(think MJ). I first remember meeting Sabu at the Big Bash. I look at him with this grin on his hace, an oversized straw hat on his head and he's slipping the tongue to some alligator. I said to myself" that's one creepy mutha Fu**er! I too vote for Sabu!

i thrice the vote - Sabu!

I like many of them... Humuhumu, Kiliki, Basement Kahuna, Unga Bunga, Traitor Vic, Selector Lopaka and many others...

...but the name "Tiki Bong" gets my attention like no other. Hmmm. I wonder why?

I used to really like the name Martiki6 until it was changed to Martiki. Now I hate it.

(just kiddin')

I apologize for not providing you with an entertaining name but I try to make up for it with annoying - pointless posts.

For me, it's fartsatune every time.

em

For me, it's Slacks Ferret. That just kills me.

I like fartsatune also. I forgot about Slacks Ferret, I don't even know what it means, but I like it and it does make me laugh.

i think that the dali-esque juxtaposition of "flounder,""art," and
is a winner :tiki:

I guess I will add my 2 cents....Suburban Hipster is my fave user name.

Yeah, I forgot, I did actually laugh out loud when I saw Slacks Ferret's first post.

Fartsatune got me too, especially when I found out it's a girl!

Sabu is a great name to yell across a room... SABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

You probably don't realize exactly how great a name Basement Kahuna is until you really see his basement.

In addition, I always like Atomic Cocktail and weirduncletiki. And nice fishy gives me a giggle in it's simplicity.

But I think that Exit into the Unknown (insert Twilight Zone music), Hanford Lemoore, may be the coolest.

The exit is not unknown. The exit is 198.

:wink:

My favorite name is Captain Ambiance.

Too many good ones to pick just one. Sabu the Coconut Boy and Polynesian Pop are my two very favorites, but I like Atomic Cocktail, Boob and Tiki A. Moaikingbird too.

I'd have to say SirParrothead

Mano Tiki Tia ain't bad either.

The name Basement Kahuna makes me laugh every time

The name Basement Kahuna makes me laugh every time

I wanted to be pupuplatter.com but it was taken. I wanted fishtick.com but it was taken. tikifish.com was about 15th on my list, but now that it is mine, I cannot imagine it any other way!

I have been the DOG for so long it was to late to come up with anything else, BUTT
when I found out I could get TIKIFRK for my cars plates, I jumped all over it.
I was listening to some women behind my car the other day saying
"What is a TIKI FRANK"
I told them to just add some ketchup and you got it??

A Dawntiki's husband :P

I'm very fond of some of the Rock-a-billy Tiki names here, like "SugarCaddyDaddy","Johnnievelour", and "Suicide Sam".

Also like the Kahuna variations such as "Basement Kahuna" and "Cowtown Kahuna".

I like any name that shortens into a nice nickname; "BK","Johnnie V","Z", etc.

Sabu

I like LimpTiki's name. Given the phallic nature of Tiki's I got a good chuckle out of that one.

And I also remember a religion thread a while back. I think it was BambooBen who then changed his name to RevBambooBen. Anyway, that was pretty cool.

OK, there's crude sexual reference & religion, just let me mention PoliTiki to complete the trifecta...

Thanks Fonduie, next time you're in Modesto drive by the tiki motel parking lot and view the inspiration for my handle. Have you been around long enough to remember the "Lanai" in San Mateo?

Oooh! I want to add the tiki carver called "IdolHands!"

I like Floratina's name. It wasn't Hibiscus Hannah or Plumeria Pam or Lily Lucy or TikiFlower or TikiTina, it was Floratina and it covers the botanical world. Very original.

My favorite names are EMSPACE and Atomic Cocktail

Emspace is just plain cryptic and wierd..kind of scary..I love it!!!

Atomic cocktail sounds like something you could order at Tommorrowland terrace!

very cool!!!!

my vote goes for "kooche", i just love "kooche", i mean who doesnt love "kooche".

I dunno, I kinda thought chisel slinger was a neat name.

If I were to be born again (not that born again, the other one), I'd wish my parents would have named me Kevin.

There were too many Bongs at my school and it got real confusing sometimes (especially after the lunch period at Lucus Vigors house cause he had no daddy and we could do what ever we wanted there (and we usuall did)).

I remember Lucas Vigor well!

Boy, we had many a cool party at his house...Bong, do you remember when we broke into Mr. Vigor's liquor cabinet in 1st grade?

I tried to make a mai-tai with Grenadine, and you threw me in the pool! Man, that was fun!

How is old Lucas doing these days, anyway? I haven't talked to that cat in ages!

Is he still doing sound tracks for porno movies out there in Simi Valley?

I heard a rumour that he was starting a band up with some exotica singer named "Pop Ylop", or something like that!

Is that true?

It could be worse, you could have "What's a FAGCUTTER" like Martiki gets when people see his FGCUTTR plate...

ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Bamzeno has a nice ring

Floratina is so beautiful sounding

TikiBong scores for most memorable

Like theJab, Johnnievelour and MonkeyGod

Snarkoutgirl - love it! Don't know why

Smogbreather - a classic

Fonduie - sounds yummy

Swanky - makes you want to meet him

mrsmiley - i like happy things :)

OneBigSwinger - has one big post, but i like the name

Also like inkylouise, sugarcaddydaddy, vintagegirl, Turbogod, Cherry Capri, kick the reverb, Doctor Z, Surburban Hipster, Sabu, humuhumu and tikivixen... this is just from skimming the first 8 pages of the member list. I'll stop now. Too many good ones. Sorry if you got gypped and your name appears on pages 9 - 37!

Amusingly enough, whenever I hear someone yell "Hey Fagcutter!" at me when I'm driving, it always turns out to be mig.

I think my fave would have to be Slacks Ferret. Its not particularly tiki, but for some reason it makes me wanna make up an Adult Swim kind of charactor called "Slacks Ferret, one-eyed detective."

I also like Slacks Ferret.

I grew up in L.A. so I'm going to have to go with Smogbreather ... it's a classic.

In my next life I want to be something sexy like tikivixen.

My favorite is "absolute-shemale" even though He/She has never posted.

I like "Hanford_Lemoore". I though "Hanford" was Hanford's real name until I saw the sign for the Lemoore/Hanford exit way up the 5 near the East Bum-Hole, Egypt Slaughterhouse.

I like Tiki Mo Fo, think its a fun name.

I like "shipwreckjoey". It's got that Robinson Carusoe (sp?) salt factor to it.

I also think the uga-chacka chant names are pretty cool like: "Unga-Bunga" and "Humuhumu"

Unga-wa-lo! :)

for some reason, the name "Tonnikan Jinn" has been bouncing around in my head. then last night it rang out in my head: "tonic and gin." classic! pretty dam clever my friend...

this segues into the douglas adams assertation that on every planet, there is a drink called "jinnantonic" regardless of what is actually the recipe for the drink.

well, I get all sorts of whack stuff for my name!
Are you into Wicca? -NO
Are you a druid? -NO
I am a Suburbanpagan! Oh, never mind!

Thanks J.D.!

My name was inspired by 3 things, two of which you nailed....

1. Tanqueray an tonic. Accept no substitute.
2. Hitchhikers Guide to the Gallaxy. Which reminds me, it's been 10 years so I should really read that again.
3. Star Wars. Big fan / borderline freak. I created this name over on a replica movie prop board where lots of the people have "Star Wars" like names. This one just killed several birds with one stone.

Hey, was that ezboard.com's ASAP (A Site About Props)? I joined that one as cosmicjackalope to post a question about Burke Chairs as used on Star Trek. I checked back til I picked up an invasive program that tried to re-assign my wallpaper.

the two names that make me laugh are
Sporkboyofjustice and Suburbanpagan

Sporkboy conjures up a vision of a superhero ~ his job is to provide cutlery (spork of course) to the etiquette challenged masses.

SuburbanPagan cracks me up, because all the pagans i know.. wouldnt drive a Suburban, nor live in the suburbs...

so many fun usernames ~

[ Edited by: dogbytes on 2004-06-10 00:27 ]

I thought it was Spork as in the luncheon meat. Either way, great name.

how to foon a spork
