Interesting topic!
Tenric Starkindler:
the first name came last and the last name came first
(I find life is often ordered that way
)
I have been using Starkindler for ...oh... about 8+ years now.
It was my first screen name on AOL and I carried over into the forums I joined and the two websites I Co-Admin.
I got the name from one of my favorite musicians, Michael Card, he has an album and song by that name. Looking into it I found that it was an old Celtic name used for Christ. It seemed a good name to adopt, and a constant reminder of my faith while surfing the 'Net.
when I re-discovered my SW fandom and started visiting the forums it seemed like I needed a good first name to go with the one I was using. I did a couple of those name-generator things but didn't like the results much (at least not for naming a human).
So I just went to a randomly generated list of names and started going through it.....when I hit Tenric I just liked the sound of it as it rolled of my tongue so I stuck with it.
***trivia***
for those so minded (and future Trivial Pursuit players )
I almost went with the name my wife and I had picked out for our last child if it had been a boy......a nod to a ST:TNG (Data-centric) episode and a name we both liked upon hearing it....any ST fans care to guess?
