Your Username

Postby Togtdyalttai » 11 Feb 2009, 00:37

What's the story of your username? Why'd you choose it? Anything else we should know about it?

I've been using my username in all sorts of places for about 4 years now. It stands for That one guy that died yesterday and lived to tell about it. I chose it because i thought it sounded cool. Because it doesn't make sense, I don't like it when people abbreviate it to Togt, but I'm fine with Tog or Togtdy.

Well I'm S.Williamz for obvious reasons, I'm a fan of Serena Williams. lol I put z instead of s because I thought it sounded cool, also because I wanted to personalize it, and because I thought there would be tons of S.Williamses in the game anyway.

When i grow up Stefan Edberg was in the very top of all players. So it was very easy for me to get an favourite player.. Mats Wilander was another one but i liked Stefan more.. I almost forget Björn Borg but he was a little before my time... I was only 5 when he quit.. So therfore it was easy for me to pick an TE name.. Thats my story... :lol:

Ro.Federer Why the Ro ?
a lot of people were using Roger Federer or R.Federer (e.g. that guy from Argentina) so I decided to add an O after the R and now as I can see this name is on the market man :lol:.

My full first name is Alyanna. Nobody says it correctly, so I go with Leena or Leelee. And my tournament name is Brie Whitehead, because she's the best professional tennis player ever.

I thought togt was an odd spelling of "Talk to you later". Now, this makes a little more sense. :wink:

Nothing too creative here...just "b" for Butch (my nick) and "taylor" (my last name).
"Brie Whitehead", the best pro tennis player ever?...REALLY,now 8-)
I thought that honor belonged to someone named Court, Graf, or Navratilova... :roll:

Consistent in what respect?
Keeping balls in play or winning matches and tournaments? :scratch:
When did she play?
On what level did she play?
If pro level, is she in the Tennis Hall of Fame?

You need to do some searching on the greatness of Brie Whitehead.

Basically, she's a running joke. She loses 0-6 0-6 nearly every match, and her delusional rich parents travel her around the world, and must pay some serious money to get her WC into WTA qualifying events, just to get destroyed in tennis matches. This led to the WTA and ITF requiring a specific ranking to get into events, but Brie even beat that... well, I don't want to go on forever. She's also quite pretty.

Brie is the luckiest girl in the world.
