It is also a fairly common first and last name. Don't know if you can claim you made it up.


No, I 'm just saying that I thought this name was completely imaginary, as I hadn't seen it anywhere else. I used it as a name for my Dwarf character in various RPG games many, many years ago.

There's a painter on CMON who shares the name (I am not they).
There's a car nut on some Mustang page that shares the name (I know SFA about American cars).

I've only used this name for the last 12 or so years.


The first and second results in the google search were my posts though.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

My name is a secondary character in the greatest play ever written.

I'm not even the most famous internet Polonius, some guy has a blog. You actually find my IG codex review on Page 16 though.

On most things, I'm actually Polonius42, which is unique to me. (a search pulls up deviant art, of all things, which I only joined to see a comic book a friend had drawn.)

Hey! Did you guys know there's a type of giant fething sea-bird with the same name as me? Why didn't anybody tell me?

I'm gonna have to change my name to 'Cormorant' or something now. Hope it's not taken.

Just type your name in Google and search and see where / if you find references to you in this guise - I guess with Avatar in your name you'll need a specific search, so do this "AvatarForm" - the quote marks will search the exact word rather than just 'avatar' and 'form'
