Where does the nickname come from?

You are probably asking yourself, "what does Fiddeou even mean?"

Well, here is the somewhat funny story of how that weird string of letters came to be my alias:

Since I was a kid, I have been always very thin. So thin, that when I was about eleven years old, a friend of mine, who was even more unusually short than me, once made a comment about how "noodle" I was.

That was actually said in our native language, which is Spanish, so verbatim, the comment was: "Estás bien fideo".

That word resonated in my brain for quite a time.

A year after, I had the need to make myself a e-mail account, and for my username I modified fideo into fiddeou to make it sound less like the meaning it came from. Since then, I've been using it as my username almost everywhere, and eventually it turned from being just my online name to be the de-facto term to address me.
