[QUOTE="kieveryuu, post: 202575, member: 2225"] There are not many nicknames in my family, the name you have is important. Some families like nicknames and good on them, not mine. So the internet requires a little care, I used my one nickname as my handle for a long time, but no longer have it. Giving it some thought one day I considered the old quote “We sent them our Jews from Odessa, and they sent us their Jews from Odessa.” (A quote regarding the movement of musicians between Russia and the United States.) Going for something a little different I chose “Kieve” with an extra “e“ to better connect it to “ryuu” which is one way of saying dragon in Japanese - so in short (haha) my handle is a contraction of “kieve no ryuu” or “dragon of kieve”. All that and the twist is that I am a sephardic and not an ashkenazi Jew. 8) So, not nearly as inventive as some of yours, but I like it, and now you understand my avatar pic as well. [/QUOTE]
