I originally let my young daughter build my profile and she chose a name she thought fitting of a fantasy princes and hence I became @lesleyannia
Which was fine, because I wasnāt going to get very involved anywayā¦
But to my surprise, I got rather (too) involved and started to get recognised. I felt a bit disingenuous when people gave me a cheery 'you go, girlās
When Petri offered me the mod job I discussed wanting to ācome outā as a bloke and picked a new name.
@witch or possibly @Azure had been very generous in praise of my silly poems and christened me ābard of Correlliaā.
So I incorporated that with a name that matches my initial and had some scriptural parallels.
So here I am.

I am not. Just normal American, Iām afraid. But Wales is a beautiful country, and eminently worth a visit. If you enjoy hiking, the Snowdon Horseshoe is a lot of fun.

My name is inspired by the god of mischief Loki (hard to guess I know). I like nearly all incarnations of him from Marvels Loki to the old nordic god.
The title Professor I stole from a book āAera: The Return of the Ancient Godsā by Markus Heitz. There Loki appears as Prof. Prof. Dr. Dr. Dr. Loki.
As a random fact: itās not the first time I borrow a name for a character from his book.

Mano Ai is my game name in honor of my father who passed away. His aumakua (family god) was the shark which in Hawaiian is Mano. I added the Ai because he used to always say it when going into the ocean. I picked up the shark avatar & change to it when in the AW events. I think itās a cool 
touch. Lol!!

My name comes from the hypothetical 100th monkey effect Hundredth monkey effect - Wikipedia where by once 100 monkeys learn something others spontaneously develop the skill. In general I take it to mean that once I know something everyone should / does. While I do not believe the effect exists as stated I do like the concept.

my name: Boolz San
I play a Blizzard game using a friendsā account name 'Boolz' prior to joining E&P.
I watch(ed) japanese anime and 'San' is the most commonplace honorific and is a title of respect typically used between equals of any age (Japanese honorifics - Wikipedia)

I am a Chef by profession. In a previous game my game was just āChefā, but some guy wanted to challenge me for the name. I won the challenge and changed my name to āTheChefā and he took on the name āTheSousChefā.
My IGN now is āChef Puddinā which comes from a bet I lost to @Xero786. He made me change my name to Puddinā for a week and people liked it so much that I decided to stick with it. Its a āSuicide Squadā reference, how Harley Quinn calls The Joker. I guess that makes Zero Harley Quinn and iām the joker, since he started calling me that.
