FYI, Nexus is currently stalled significantly for want of a screen name for Aral Vorkosigan that kappa likes.

From some lines he says: makeyourenemychange ("A weapon is a device for making your enemy change his mind."), walkaroundtheworld ("One step at a time, I can walk around the world.", said to his father), whatyouknowaboutyourself or just knowaboutyourself ("Reputation is what other people know about you. Honor is what you know about yourself.")

maybe paraphrased to "knowaboutmyself" since the usernames tend to be things of the characters referring to themselves?

I've only read Shards of Honor and Barrayar, but "art_of_vor," or "art_of_vorcraft" has a bit of the play-on-words character of other screen-names. And when we first meet Aral he's captain of the General Vorcraft.
