Nickname(s) - none, really

YEAH, WHATEVER, LUE-YEENATOR.

You had better change this, punk:

Lied - No, and that freedom is something to enjoy.

Oh, my, that was quite an omission, was it not? Henceforth I call attention to the above comment. :)

v. lied, ly·ing, (lng) lies
v. intr.

1. To present false information with the intention of deceiving.
2. To convey a false image or impression: Appearances often lie.

(1) is used with people. (2) is used with inanimates and abstract nouns.

No intent of deception --> did not lie.
However, it was untrue, so in the future I should watch myself to double-check the truth value of what I say.

Your dictionary is woefully lacking!

In historical usage, the word has also meant a mere falsehood:

1651 Hobbes Leviath. i. xi. 51 Able to make a man both to believe lyes, and tell them.

1820 Coleridge Lett., Convers., etc. I. 119, I am almost inclined to reverse the proverb and say `What every one says must be a lie'.

At the very least, I have reason to suspect your supposed lack of "intent of deception," because you could surely not forget a nickname as unique and as awesome as THE LUE-YEENATOR.

For serious though, I believe you.

Peace out, Lue.

As I said on AIM, the attestations are all of nouns, not of verbs. Perhaps one can tell a lie (probably somebody else's lie) and not be lying.
