About My Name


Spoony Bard

436 views

Ok I lied, and because daydreamer pinched me. This will be my last entry of sorts, I guess.

 

Everyone seems to be confused about the name Volar, and why I have it.

 

Well it is Spanish for "to fly", and generally used to note someone of being "fly" (as in cool).

 

I first came upon the word when I went to Hong Kong. There was a VIP Members Only 21+ nightclub called Volar (originally called Fly). I know the bartender who works there, so I made frequent visits during my stay in the city. I was given a dog-tag chain for members and staff only, which has the words Volar on it (chain goes through the O, which can be another good reason why I use the name. Omicron = O). I still have that dog tag.

 

Then I entered the radio career, and needed a radio alias for the airwaves. After much thought, I chose Volar to be my permanent radio name.

 

I use the name everywhere else now. It is my cosplaying name, a name I use for video games, and other various forums and memberships.

 

And considering I am a free spirited, laidback person, I believe the name fits. I am flying high in the sky free from everything else. Flying towards my dreams and away from my worries.

 

And plus I am pretty fly for a white guy.

You might be familiar with it, considering it isn't far from where you are.

 

It can be found in Lan Kwai Fong in the Central district.

Okay, I'm more than a little confused here. First you say you're leaving and everyone cries their eyes out, and now you say you're not? Which is it? Sorry if this comes across as rude, but I'm just all mixed up over this. :wacko:

Darn right you are. :P

 

Well, I must say, the name is no Omicron, but it is rather spiffy in it's own way. The verb "to fly" I can see that. Well...

I thought it was just "Ralov" backwards.

 

No idea what "Ralov" means though.

 

Although seriously, it's an acronym for valor too.

Isn't that a song? Kidding, of course it is. :P

 

Anyway, I can't tell, are you back... ooooor, what?

 

Ooooooh, riiiiight, I get it. Nevermind. I'll shut up. Right now.

That's an "anagram."

Acronyms are words made from the first letters of words in a phrase.

 

Grammar FTW.

*shrug* All I know is that another person, other than me, has taken to the 'skies'.

 

Well... kinda.

 

I'd give you two for flinching, Vol, but I don't think I will. I feel too nice to do that. :P
