quislibetSince many of us seem to be meta-journaling here, writing entries discussing interests or people on friends' lists, I ask you this:
Tell me about your username. And/or, if it differs, the name you have put into the "title" line.
In some cases, it's pretty obvious; a few of you have simply chosen to go with your actual name or some version of it. But for others of you I'm simply baffled.
And for those of you who are using your real names -- feel free to talk about that, too. What has prompted your bold stand for identity in a world of pseudonyms?
Or something.
Meanwhile, I will write about "fest noz."
'Quislibet,' were it not for that pesky crack-induced "S," would mean "whoever" in Latin, with the sense of "whoever you wish." When I first signed up here, I had it in mind to be mysteriously anonymous and to write in Latin, as I had done in a paper journal years ago to practice my mad Latin Prose Composition skillz. After two months of not doing anything at all, I decided instead to keep a regular old livejournal and to start adding to my list the journals of friends I had been reading, thus announcing my presence.
So isn't that exciting?
