I have a question of urgent importance for you all.

... Who started calling me Loot in the first place? And how the hell did that catch on? It's not even the first time someone made a nickname for me and others just started to call me by that. That's creepy.

I've referred to you as Loot in my head for ages, thanks to me saying "l337" as "leet." I think Dylan is the one that brought it to people's attention, though, if I remember correctly.

This is not urgent. You're spoiling it for the rest of us, when we need something of critical importance because there's a terr'ist with a gun to our head.

THE LOOT
THE WARRANT
THE CROOK


At this point I bounce randomly between thinking of you as "loot" or as "Bond."

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

I don't know if it was because of someone else calling you that, but I've been using "loot" since I've had more to do with you (AIM, in-jokes, what-have-you). *shrug* I don't like thinking in numbers, mostly. "L007" was used for many years, however.

As far as I know, I either started it or at least started doing it on my own without seeing others doing it.

A lot of things are like that, though.

That sounds good. Yes, another trend started by your best friend and hero: me, Dylan.

Vitamin-D has done a lot in terms of nomenclature.

I think of you as "Elle Oh Oh Seven". If that helps.

Phonetic name spelling or pronunciation just means you've been namelessed, in most instances. Timmle, Simmle, SeeKay, Esskay, Essdee, HotDee, Aye Eye, yada.
