| Why would you change your name? A name is representative of someone. If your changing your name, then you must be desiring to change your image and/or who you are. | |

| Yes, but to quote dear William: "A rose by any other name would still smell as sweet."
You seem to assume essence before existence, Dragon.
So, please, I insist, analyze my name. Then yours. Then Jay's. And don't stop until you have blood coming out your ears from the needless interpretation and obligatory psychoanalytical BS that you'll inevitably need to spout in order to complete this task.
Trust me, I critique literature. This crap happens all the time. | |

| AquaAscension - Well, Aqua is water. Water is life. Ascension is rising or moving upwards. You move up in rank. OMG you're name means you think you're a higher being. God Complex much? That or you're evaporating.
Dragonheart91 - Dragons are cold blooded but noble creatures. You have a cold heart, but you try to be noble and true. However, you're dangerous if left unchecked. Rare too. Hard to find someone like you as Dragons are rare. 91 because that's the year you were born?
SinisteRing - He's manipulative. He just go in circles (Like a ring) of what he wants and what he does in life. This is shown especially by his looping of going in and out of mapping, or his friend cycles etc.
Kind of fun. | |

| Nice interpretations Jay. Regardless of accuracy, that is amusing. I think we should make a forum game out of that. | |

Kind of fun. Yes and no. Not a God complex much, just completely (not really - quite humble I'd say). Aqua doesn't necessarily have to be a symbol for water, although you are using what might be called a New Criticism form of analyzing names here. However, if you pull on a few more ideas you might get some interesting things. For example: Why are both the A's capitalized? Is this a coded message that I am a recovering alcoholic? Also, why the noun version of the verb "ascend?" Is, in this case, Aqua being used as an adjective to modify the type of Ascension, or is it, because of the capitals, that the two are actually separated due to the capitalization. I.e. does my name become the ascension of water or just an aqua colored rising thing? Additionally, what about the assonance produced by the A(qu)a and the A of ascension? Could you derive (based on the context that I've posted about poetry) that I like the sounds of poetry and such? What could this say about my character? (You'll need psychoanalysis and a suspension of disbelief to undertake this.) And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how you BS 8 pages on some meaningless drivel. It becomes far easier to do this when there is more text present and more words... partly because of structuralism and postmodernism and deconstructionism being that the meaning of words becomes fluid and really malleable under this (to a degree). I'd critique your name, Jay, but I have to write 8 pages or more over the weekend so I'll be spending my powers of BS elsewhere. tl; dr: Above is an explication on how to bull shit. Oh, and in response to the "making a forum game out of it," it would essentially become an exercise in creativity and interpretation. I am not opposed to that, but it should be undertaken with only humor in mind as opposed to ... something. My words fail =( | |

| Lol, I spent like maybe 2 minutes writing bull shit. Apparently people like it . I think it would be more fun if everyone made bullshit about the meanings of everyones names opposed to just me.... @Sin: Ya, just lol. I'll be sticking to calling you Sin(isteRing). Or Tidus or Kyle even. But Vegatron? Just lol. @Aqua: What would be the old form of analyzing names? Both A's are capitalized for aesthetics. Nothing more, nothing less. Ascension sounds cooler than Ascend. I think your name becomes the asension of water, not "an aqua colored rising thing" You just like alliteration. Who doesn't? (See my name). It says you're normal, no need for indepth psychoanalysis. Someone make a forum game, or just use this topic....since it doesn't really matter. | |

| I still haven't stopped laughing. This became one of my new favorite topics after Jay's name analysis and Sin's name change.
I too am curious why different people capitalize different parts of a name. What meaning could it have!? For instance I generally capitalize the first letter only, but others sometimes capitalize the first letter of each word or even sometimes the last letter of some words. EXPLAIN JAY! | |

| Vegatron is an awesome name. If you don't like it, gtfo.
Just to piss you off, I'm changing my MSN nickname and I'll no longer respond to anyone calling me "Sin" or any other form of my old screen name. Just to bother you, Jay. | |

| Personally I think vegatron seems a little goofy. Like Megatron except vegan? It brings up a lot of thoughts of concepts you may or may not want to associate yourself with.
It's all up to you though Vega. | |

| Vega is the brightest star in the galaxy. Tron is one of the most classic movies you'll ever see.
Makes for a good mix. It's also up for interpretation for things like Vegeta from Dragonball and probably some name from Transformers. Movies written all across the board, but being called Vega is what I'm looking for next. | |

| Again, your loss Sin. Not responding to me or others is...your loss. Not ours.
@Dragon: Aesthetics. Looks better/more distinguishing etc. Same thing with Jess's spacing with punctuation. | |
