Since 2009 I always stumble across some interesting nicknames. I was wondering, where did you get your nickname from and does it have any special meaning? :yh:

Mine comes from the son of the Greek god Titan Hyperion. Mythology depicts Helios as a man who drives the chariot of the sun across the sky each day.


Greek mythology is interesting.

Mine is a fantasy name of a character from a role play game created about 20 years ago. It was originally created on the basis of Tom Araya, the bassist and vocalist of the Slayer :yh:

ice is an archaic word for security. Specifically from the book Neuromancer and was adopted into a number of TV shows and movies like Max Headroom.
It dealt primarily with computer security although it can also mean security systems in general.

I work in the security field. I bypass different security systems every day. Some are physical, some are electronic/access control, some are digital/computer based.

Mine was derived from (of course) Lasers and
Bauer Electronic Engineering (a business name
we wanted to register).

I use that same name on eBay and any Forum I'm
registered on..
