Where did the name Anderycks come from?

“Anderycks” is an online username or handle that I’ve been using for a few years now. It’s my social media username and my gamer tag. You can find me as @Anderycks on just about any platform. It seemed a natural thing to use the same name as my website’s name.

The word itself is an amalgam of my real name “Deryck” and my long time Second Life username, “Anders Falworth.” I put “Anders” and “Deryck” together and came up with “Anderycks.” It represents the blending of real life and digital life, or what’s possible when humanity meets the digital. I pronounce it like And-er-icks, but it’s a made up word. Say it however you like!
