Well there's a story as to how my user name came to be "Alex V.Sharp": 8)
"Alex" is a shorter version of my full name "Aleksandar" (eng. Alexander) I used since old games could not fit more then 5-7 letters for a player.
"Sharp" used to be "Sharpeye". My sister suggested it once when I located a small scooter screw that fell off while she was playing. I found it within a minute on a very wide and dusty street with one look (just lucky, I guess), so she said I have "sharp eyes" which I associated with the "Sharpshooter" unit from "Heroes of Might and Magic 3". I begun calling myself "Alex Sharpeye", referring to my favorite archer unit and shooter game skills. Couple of years later I used the computer's "read out loud" to hear how my name sounds and the PC pronounced it completely wrong! It begun to bug me, so I started using only "Sharp".
The "V" in the middle actually stands for "Vulpine" (Middle English, from Latin
vulpinus, from
vulpes = fox; perhaps akin to Greek
alōpēx = fox) which refers to my favorite animal. Since there were
A LOT OF "Alex Sharp"-s I had to make mine more unique, and guess what? None of them have a middle user name like I do!
