I was walking around the city a few days ago (one of the little pasttimes that carried with me after I was no longer a Blue) and I started to wonder about something. You walk around this city, and you see so many different people with all of these different names. Now, Names are important. To name is to know. What's interesting is that many of our Redpill names are chosen by us.
What I'd like to know is, what is the meaning behind your name? What is the origin of it, and why did you pick it? Is it a symbol? A nickname? was it an alias you just decided to take upon yourself. or does it mean nothing? "It's just a name, don't fuss over it" as Bruce Lee once said?
I'll start.
My blue pill name is...was Jason Ixios. I was a writer, had a lot of contacts in the gangs. I...umm...had an incident...I fell off of a roof. After that I woke up in my pod, feeling like all kinds of hell. Now I know this sounds familiar, The Kid went through a similar type of thing. But where his experience was all for the best, mine...well...let's just say a part of me didn't make the cross over to The Real. So to me, Jason Ixios, the person I was, is dead. All I am is a Shadow on his grave, the only one who Grieves for him.
I look forward to the responces

The name I carry now is the nickname I carried as a blue pill. As a blue pill, I was know as Rob Barbaro. A person that strived to help anyone in any way I can. Whenever my friends, or sometimes even complete strangers, needed help with anything, they'd always say, "Ask Rob, the car audio guy. And now, its the name I choose to go by because it represents the greatest aspects of my personality that I carry with me now as a red pill.
It is a name that represents my creativeness, my handyness, and drive to always help anyone that needs my help. The part of me that will always be my greatest stregnth, and the psrt that carries no weakness. The part of my soul that I know will never die or be forgotten as long as I stay true to it.
exsuscito - To awaken from sleep.
It's only nuance is the use of a lower-case 'e', as the word indicates an ideal/state of mind rather than a title or name.
The details of my awakening and subsequent choice of 'name' is a different story for a different time.
