Awanken Wasp Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Greetings for you all !Ever since I have joined the Ordo Imperialis, lot of people have been IMing me about the my name and I figured out I should reveal the truth about the name in public instead of answering to all of you separately in IMs. It`s not really a shocking truth, but it might shake your world and give you one of those "OOOOOOOOOOOOOHH ! I GOT IT !" -moments.Let´s start with the name "Awanken". No, it`s not a finnish word. I don`t think it`s a real word in any language. It doesn`t mean sauna like was suggested before (Sauna is definately not homo btw >:C. There is nothing more cool then lot of people sitting in a hot room, whacking themselves with branches and yelling "PERKELE!" from the bottom of their lungs ).The origin for the name "Awanken" started when I needed a new name, something I thought I would use inside furry communities and forums. It started with a simple word fiddling from the word "Awake" (OMG ENGLISH WORD ?!). "Awake" turned into "Awaken" and then I realised I could make people think if I just add one more letter, N... Therefore, Awanken was born. At this time I was fully aware how the people would think of this name but it was funny to follow peoples reactions to the name. Nothing is as satisfying then make people go "OMG WTF WUT ?".The last name Wasp. Well, when I joined Second life I had to choose last name. From all the available last names I chose "Wasp", because it`s also the name of old school heavy metal band. No, i wasn`t thinking those flying angry things that dies after they sting you, but after I made the account, I realised the combination of the name and was all like "Umm. lol, okay" and it stayed. Awanken Wasp was born !NOW, during my stay in here I have also realised something. This name can divide people into 2 groups and I shall tell you more about them. You might even realise belonging into one of these groups.Group 1: Those who see the name as "A W A K E N".People, I´m sorry but you are blind. But atleast your mind is pure from all the harm if you just skipped your way straight into this section of the post. Lucky you :)Group 2: Those you see the name as "A W A N K E N" and immediately think the wors by changing the last letter to R and separating the first A from the other letters.People, you are DIIIIIIIRTY ! But atleast your eye sight is fine ! I love you guys ! Hopefully Aryte isn`t assembling a electric chair for me and the group 2 after this :C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nrom Normandy Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I used to play Everquest 2 with a guy who drummed for Wasp for a while. I was jealous of his comic book collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
