    What's with your username? (OP)


    So I have this tiny little problem.. I'm not very good when it comes to coming up with usernames/nicknames.

    I see a lot of the members here have very interesting usernames and I was wondering if you don't mind maybe you can share how you came up with it, perhaps there could be a meaning behind it?

    My username is Hulk because I can't think of any other username for myself and I just thought it would be funny to imagine Hulk using a computer to go on forums and all.

    Re: What's with your username?

    Marwen is an old arabic name for men. I'm not sure of its exact meaning, but from what I readn it's related/derived from the arabic word Marw, which mainly refers to 2 things:
    1) a type of stones, from the family of Quartz, used to make fire, when you hit 2 stones with eachother, they make a spark.
    2) a type of plant, with good smell, grows in desert and arid regions.
    other definitions (in Lisanu-l-Arab dictionary) say it's a name of a mountain(Marwen), or a town(Marw) in old Persia.

    GANDALF!!

    Wow that is an interesting definition of Marwen, I wonder if Tolkien named his characters based on it.

    Is it your real name? or?? No wait this must be kept secret don't tell!

    how do you choose passwords? I have more than 30 important accounts and it gets very confusing to set differnet passwords and remember them.

    I think there's been a misunderstanding. Brother Marwen wasn't responding to your post, but that of Samiun's. Here's his post again where he quotes Samiun:

    As far as I know, he didn't make any comment on your name.

    These two posts will clear up the matter inshaa'Allah:

    Most likely it got left behind when copying and pasting.

    You're not the only one! My name is Dua'a and so is my username.

    I knew what Scimitar was when I went to Turkey in February, it was in a museum in Istanbul used during the Ottoman Empire! XD I was so surprised when I saw it and remembered someone from this forum had the same username! It was a gorgeous sword though

    No need to appology brothers. Believe me, I never felt offended in this forum with all my brothers and sisters in Islam here, I don't deny the possibility that I could have been misunderstood sometimes, but I'm always open to corrections and to jokes too . (Ask Abdul Maajid if you don't believe me :I )

    Re: What's with your username?

    assalam o alaikum

    its interesting to know reasons from people for choosing their usernames..

    never bothered to notice what some of them means like 'sister harb'..

    and didnt knew what 'scimitar' was.. i thought it was some kind of machine most probably some thing like space ship.. lol.. but that pic has a wonderful scimitar.. i want one like that

    interesting meanings of the name 'marwen' too


    my name 'haya emaan', both arabic names.. 'haya' meaning modest and 'emaan' meaning faith
    i love both the names and so chose it as my cyber identity..
