What's your SN mean?

It's "dream" in French.

A few years ago I was trying to think of a new username for this forum I was joining. I was listening to "Dream On" by Aerosmith at the time, so I translated dream into a few different languages and liked Reve. I don't even post on that forum anymore, but the name stuck.

When Reve is taken, I use Jourreve or Reve Levon, which are slightly more interesting.

Jour is "day" in French, so adding that to "reve" makes "daydream." (Sort of. The beauty of it is that the French word for daydream is actually "reverie," so Jourreve is nicely unique.)
Reve Levon is Reve plus "Levon" by Elton John. I love both the song and the name itself, so I added it to Reve and it sounded nice.

Awesome - so you don't have any French-speaking background? Where are you from?

Wait, what does the TMB in your name stand for, Jon?
