The day we all decided to sign up to NZMusic.com we all had to do one thing: Sign Up. This includes making a screen name for ourselves which is preferably an alias and something more interesting than our normal day to day name.
No one has the same name, they either have one or don't (if your a lurker that is!). But the question of this is how did you get your NZM name? Was it out of an obsession of a band? Your own name? Or just something random. Now is the time to share with us your origin!

My name AchillesHeel is taken from a line from one of my favourite Placebo songs "Special K" that goes "You're my new achilles heel". I wanted to call myself achilles libertine but it was too long and i needed something a bit shorter and achilles heel was the next best choice.

Jenni is my real name with a smiley face on the end [sort of started using it on the zed message boards a couple of years ago]. i don't really like my NZM name, i want to change it to Jenni_Punk - my OTHER screen name.
Jenni Punk is the shortened version of 'Jenni_Punk_Is_Broken' - had some online friends who called me punk or punkette for a while, so i adopted it from there. I went tramping one weekend and managed to sprain my ankle quite badly walking along a river bed - when i got home the same friends asked how my trip went i replied "Jenni Punk Is Broken".....of course Jenni Punk Is Broken is too long, so i changed it to Jenni Punk.

A good friend of mine calls me peaches because of my 'english complexion' hmmm...and then one day i was telling my friends why i get called peaches but i was in a nutty mood and just screamed peaches head. I don't understand what i had originally meant to say, but it came out awfully wrong and i found it very funny at the time... it's stuck and i use it for everything because it's the only screen name i have that i ccan remember...
