  My nickname, Nilli, is pretty much the last half of my real first name with a twist. For paranoid reasons I don't tell the internet what that name is.

  It means much more to me though. As I grew up I was always jealous on all the kids who were identified more by their nickname than their real name (like Matt instead of Matthew). As a teenager I was still hunting for a nickname when someone on the internet suddenly called me Nilli. I used to think nicknames were only made of the first half of names (Matt/Matthew, Mike/Michael, Jess/Jessica) and that didn't work with my real name, so I was happy to learn you could use the last half instead (Bert/Robert). Unfortunately it's hard to change your name after a few decades, so it's mostly the internet who knows me by Nilli, because that's the only place where I get to introduce myself to new communities.

  I used to race motorbikes, and have ridden from the age of 6. Motorbikes have and always will be a big part of my life. Faster the better.

  With THEbitcoinCPA, I was just being consistent with my other profiles, twitter, facebook, pinterest, etc.

  I just got all those profiles setup although I have only used twitter for some tweets. Therefore, I didn't have to think about it. Normally I spend time thinking about user names.

  Just started using it one day while I was studying Roman history. General don't use my own name for online forums, more out of habit than anything else.

  My first name is Andy and I got this nickname from a fellow bartender (that thought I was a little crazy) at the ripe age of 19. After that it stuck, but several others appeared over the years: Loons, Andelicious, and Andagoons. I prefer the first incarnation and use it often online.
