Essentially, I want us to sound like cavemen.

I'll start:

HomesliceAbe was playing Mario kart and HomesliceAbe's dad couldn't think of name of one of courses (HomesliceAbe thinks name was "Moonview Highway?). HomesliceAbe's dad called course "Homeslice Highway" and HomesliceAbe thought new name was hilarious. Also, HomesliceAbe is big fan of Abraham Lincoln.

spaysi sound almost like spaysi real name, and was nickname when spaysi was little kid… sometimes was called spaysi as mean teasing name, but spaysi take the name and make it own so can’t be used as mean name calling anymore

IRC nicks were max'd at 8 characters and listed alphabetically. Given that dogs are no-go!, to choose name that made full use was simple.

Edit: See some fails in this thread.
