About the titles on my LJ...

[fajrdrako]

From xinef and kikibug13:

1. My username is _____ because ____.
2. My journal is titled ____ because ____.
3. My subtitle is ____ because ____.
4. My friends page is called ____ because ____.
5. My default userpic is ____ because ____.

**please commandeer for use in your own journal, and let me know if you do so**


1. My username is fajrdrako. It means "fire dragon" in Esperanto - pronounced "fire dracko". I chose it because I was born in the Year of the Dragon, and I like dragons, and I like the image of a fire dragon - colourful and active - and I love Esperanto; it's one of my favourite languages.

2. My journal is titled "World enough and time". Because I like the quote. Because it's meant to imply that there are no conceptual limits. Because it's meant to be a thematic link to my web page 'World of Wonders', which is somewhat defunct now - why keep up a personal website when you have a perfectly functioning LJ?

3. My subtitle is 'exquisite infinity ' because I wanted to imply that my interests and scope were unlimited, and positive - again, trying to encapsulate that "World of Wonders" concept but maybe, this time, not limiting it to a world.

I also think of the text on my banner as something of a subtitle: "You've gotta be ready". This is of course a quote from Torchwood, but I like its Girl Guide implication of "be prepared" and it's serendipitous implication of "anything might happen".

4. My friends page is called 'the force of uncountable thought', based on the notion that my friends and acquaintances here are likely to be a diverse and eclectic bunch. Again, that infinity notion - with a touch of chaos and open-endedness.

5. My default userpic is a picture of John Barrowman as Captain Jack Harkness on Doctor Who and Torchwood, chosen purely for its aesthetic value and fannishness. If you need to wonder more than that, it's clear you haven't been reading my LJ over the past year, with its happily shameless Captain Jack obsession.
