My name.... Humm.... Well, like many others, I needed a name fast, and my real one just wouldn't do. I wanted an appropriate 'verse name, which could have been anything, but I sat here for about three minutes racking my brains trying to think of one.
Then it hit me. In the episode The Message, Jayne recives his fantastic hat from home, along with a letter. He proceeds to read the letter out loud. It says something about a member of his family being ill--Mattie.
To me, Mattie is a sibling to Jayne, even if that's not really the name he says. So, I guess you could say that I'm claiming a relationship to a member of Serenity's crew.
Wacky fun!

Mine spawned by the Peter Straub book "Shadow Land"... In the book there is a scary ghost type thing called "The Collector"...
Other Names on other boards I've used have been
Razgriz - Which is an Ace Combat 5 thing
ShadowsBite - Which is a book by Stephen Dedman... awesome book I might add...
Brilliance is like 4WD... It allows you to get stuck in even more remote places...

When I used to play D&D (I've since moved on to sci-fi rpg's which do far more to captuer my interest) my character was inflicted with cursed eyesight. The outward signs was that basically he looked like he never slept. He had children, and I roleplayed most of them, each carried the curse and the surname "Darkeyes".

er, crazily enough, can't remember why I started using this name, it was when I was a kid, before I even saw a computer.
A serin is a very small british bird, for some reason we had to choose names of birds, my sister chose Robin and my best friend linnet.
Of course theres a grand love in my family for using y's instead of i's, so Robyn, Lynnet and Seryn.
All my emails and other user names are variations on this, Seryndippyt, Serynity, and even the god-awful Serynade (I was desperate) the only one I had different was Annyaenne (two-year-old for 'aunty Helen')
ta daaaa, not too interesting really.

In CounterStrike, Team Fortress Classics, and battlfield 1942, I was known as River1138 long before I ever heard of Firefly. "1138" comes from Lucas THX-1138 movie.

1986 Slabsider Suzuki GSXR-1100G.
Kaylee would like it. Old, unsophisticated, unbreakable, quite the badass in its day.
Obviously outclassed by modern equivalents, as indeed I am myself, I'd still choose it because of the hoot that comes from something that will go fast, but doesn't mollycoddle (or come to think of it, does not give half a hump about the continued survival of) the rider.
You know Marv from Sin City? Just like that.
