Re: What is the etymology of your moniker?
I got mine from the Monty Python skit about the joke that won World War 2. It's supposed to be an imaginary German word or possibly a German name.

I use RCCCL for everything online. E-mail addresses, B.net, forums, and what have you.
As for the origins, well it happens to be my initials,(Yes, my full name consists of 5 names!)I have a hyphenated middle and last name.

Re: What is the etymology of your moniker?
Hmmm, interesting question. Back in the dark ages of my role-playing days (the original D & D, not advanced D & D), my first character was a fighter named Ragnar.
He was dubbed Calthalion (means to shine strong/dauntless in Quenya) by an elven NPC run by the DM (he loved Tolkien, almost every human character got an elven moniker, like Gandalph was Mithrandir to the elves), so he became Ragnar Calthalion.
After doing some Tolkien research of my own, I changed it to Kalthalion, and years later tweeked it to Kalthalior in another fantsy RPG to denote the title "High/Supreme Commander". Been using the Kal part for some time now in other games/forums - if you see Kalad & Kalax it could be me.
