Me and Dylan were hanging out in grade 7, and I forget exactly what it was, but the day I made my account, we had some joke about typhoid. Plus I thought it was pretty funny to be named after a flesh eating bacterial disease-thing.


Plus, now whenever I hear the word "typhoid" in a sentence, I immediately think of myself.

Come to think of it, that's not all a good thing.

So yeah, just went with that and it stuck.
That's actually pretty cool, though wonder how the missing letters fit in.

How often do you hear "typhoid" in a sentence?
I can't imagine that coming up too often.

Though reminds me of why I hate the word "early" sure it refers to a relative time, but it also is such an adorable nickname for me... so yeah first few years was a tad annoying whenever I heard it, and really one of the few nicknames I loathe.

I never said it was frequent. It's just when I hear it, I think of myself.

Man, we've had so many of these threads over the years.

One day about 10 years ago, one of my friends decided to merge my name (Dylan) with flon (a disgusting dessert dish). He called me Dylflon out of nohere and it just so happened that I needed a new hotmail account since my original (Joe_Cool_55) had been hacked.


Nobody can pronounce my username correctly. Most people online pronounce it Dial-flon rather that Dill-flon. This is wrong.
