Jillian is my pen name, how they call me, and my favorite song. Godslayer is the name of my band ( I mostly compose of either love, or against dogmas, ergo, against popular gods)

I wanted to call myself "vicious blood sucker", because I was feeling like an ass, and I wanted something cheeky to match my personality that day. After awhile, the name "vicious blood sucker" started to seem somewhat bland, so I decided that I would put a french twist to it. (How very "froggish" of me, hmmm?)

Mine's from a Pink Floyd song, 'Have a cigar'. I was listening to the album constantly for ages. You can just feel the venom the song, and I thought it'd be funny to go on a Goth forum with a pink name! Yeah, I laugh myself to sleep... Plus it's OK cos it seems fluffy and nice, but it's loaded with sarcasm and spite.

I am very fascinated with greek mythology all the gods and the stories and I picked Thanatos because he is black fate and death. Also Thanatos is one of the most overlooked beings in mythology also one of the most important.

Mine comes from Dante's Inferno. I'm sure most of you have read the book or are familiar with Dante's concept of Hell, and therefore have figured out what it means. If not, look up "circles of hell" in Google.

Generally, I use the name 'Kaitan' online. I'm reasonably sure that it is a permutation of 'Kaitain', the Emperor of the Known Universe's home planet in the Dune series. I'm not sure, though... my mind works in strange ways.

I clicked the wrong one; "It just sounded cool" was an accident. I got this name a long time ago.. it's kind of a long story.

4) It means something personal...
My boyfriend sings in a band called Infernal Manes, and one of their songs is called Unholy Traitor, one of my favourite songs ever. So I guess that's the reason why

Well, Jane is my real name... but this is the only place that I use it so much anymore, besides my parents and family.
This is a list of of my nicknames names starting with the most frequently used:
Opie
Opidalia
Eyebrows
Howard
Target
Ron
Sisco Kid
Stop Making That Face At Me
.... how they all ended up being guy-names I have no idea....

The 13 part... well, numbers are all industrial and stuff, but 13 is all gothy. It's like Andraculoid, but not as cool.
meh.

Honestly? I like the word ambivalent and it's meaning. And since I'm only slightly obsessed *just alittle...* with Girl, Interrupted, and Susana says at one point Ambivelent is her favorite word... Yeah, that.

I can't really remember when I first used this nickname. But I think the big breakthrough came when I joined an internet game under this name where I met a lot of people. So I started using it everywhere.
And if you're also intrested in the meaning:
"Mor Rioghain is Celtic, no one know exactly how to write, how to pronounce or even what it exactly means. They think it means something like Phantom Queen or the great one." If you want to know more about it just use google or any other web search engine.

I actually found mine using a goth nickname generator online... I thought it sounded cool.

Pretty much it really.

I can't say I personally feel attached to it yet but I'm sure it won't be long.

"hey Beavis, check it out... it's got a double D."

"Oh yeah, cool, heh heh."
