this is not the first thread like this, but there's no problem:
Carlitus is a friendly diminutive of my name, Carles, very popular on my language. I used this due to a girl that called me Carlitus on my Internet first times.
Carles means Charles on english, so Carlitus means Charly.

Have had this nickname, now on line name, for 43 years. Whoaaaa! 
. Hence the 1947 part. My sister gave me that name, as a lark, to put on my gym suit in junior high. Bored yet? Great thing though, someone I had not seen in over 20 years came into my place of work and yelled "SLINKY". Thought I'd fall off my chair. Tooo coool! My co-workers drove me crazy tring to figure out who I was, like a past life thing. Guess you can't shake those nicknames.

Anam comes from friends calling me a true soulmate. First in Swedish (Själsfrände) and then onto English. One day a friend came to me waving a book saying "Hey I got a book with your nick on it". It was Anam Cara, which is Celtic for Soulmate and since Soulmate sounded so cheesy I immediately "upgraded"
The Broken Haiku is a simpler one, it's a character from X-men 2097 (or is it 2099? I have them stashed WAY back in my closet and I honestly don't remember.)
The Character itself doesn't mean anything to me but it had a ring to it that I like, I feel it describes who I am as a character.
