I think I must have explained the story about how I came up with my name somewhere. Okay, for those who haven't heard, I am a huge LOTR fan, and have been since I was about eight when my Dad used to help me read the books. During the huge hype surrounding LOTR due to the films between 2001-2003, there was a site where you could put in your name, where you lived etc., and it would tell you what your name would be if you were a Hobbit, a Dwarf, an Elf, or some other Tolkien creation. The name I would be if I was a Hobbit was Soim Sandheaver.
The name stuck out a bit, mainly because I thought of myself as a Hobbit because I am quite a small person, and my nickname at school was "Ickledave". I tired of my friends saying "Ello, Dave!" almost every time they saw me as a result of being fans of "The League of Gentlemen", so I forged an alternative identity I could use on some Internet Forums, such as this one. I prefer being known as Soim Sandheaver or Sandy, as opposed to my actual name, mainly because I'm a very shy person in reality.
Oh yeah, and I doubt they'd let me call myself "The Administrator"
