How did you come up with your username?

[Vitehite]

My name was made by Final Fantasy XI's random name generator. Been using it for everything after that even though I only played FFXI for a month at the most.

 

[snappydog]

I liked how it sounded at the time. That's basically it.

 

[The Wykydtron]

Basically stole mine from the song "Wykydtron" by Three Inches of Blood. Its about a robot that destroys humanity XD

 

[sb666]

My user name "Tirone" came about before I realized that Tyrone is a stereotypical name for a black man. It was a combination of two original characters' names: Tyro, and Prian. A cookie for anyone who can figure out the significance to the number 231

Something to do with the 2 characters.

Let me give some hints...the number comes from a video game, and instead of seeing two hundred and thirty one, look at it as two, three, and one

I'm still not seeing it.

 

[The Salty Vulcan]

Marty Stu, I know, but I got it from a character in a comicbook I'm writing.

 

[Deguasser]

Misspelled a song by Brand New.

 

[sb666]

Mine evolved over a period of time. I was originally Syndrome (from the Muse song Stockholm Syndrome), but I prefer unique names (not having to put numbers etc after them) and Syndrome isn't exactly unique.

After changing a few letters and watching a film that had a building site with cinderblocks I came up with
<------

 

[SimuLord]

God of simulated people. Been using this message board handle around the Internet since March of 2000.

 

[SalamanderJoe]

I ended up just placing animal names next to random names. SalamanderJoe just seemed like a winning combination...

(but so many variations now. SalamandeJ0E on Xbox, SalamanderJo on PSN, THESalamanderJoe on Youtube...I MEAN C'MON!I THOUGHT IT'D BE UNIQUE!!)

 

[Glamorgan]

Honestly, it's my surname. Simple as that.

please don't stalk me

 

[Anima the Aeon]

It's my favorite aeon in FF X. So, naturally, I chose that as a username. Was lucky that it was available.

 

[Tigurus]

In Warhammer 40.000, the Spacemarines have some dude called "Tigurius" but I always forgot the second "I" so it turned into Tigurus by accident. Best mistake I've ever made ^_^

 

[Supertegwyn]

Well, my Cat is called Tegwyn, and I like the name, so I use it. It basically means super cat!

I'm still not seeing it.

Another hint...the video game in question is a Zelda game on the N64

 

[Rhatar Khurin]

My username means wicked/evil in Lithuanian.

It's also almost a place in Lord of the rings. http://lotr.wikia.com/wiki/Edoras

 

[BENZOOKA]

For a few reasons, which I'm not going to share here, I've always been an admirer for the name Ben, and names starting with it. It's actually very far away from my own name. Bazooka has a nice ring to it and goes along nicely with Ben. Also I like guns, and bazookas as well. I invented this many years ago and yet I have to not become too bored with it. Also one of the most important reasons for it: It's original.

 

[ilspooner]

My username is a shortened version of my name. My first name begins with I, my middle name begins with L, and my last name is spooner. It is never taken!

 

[Koroviev]

My name is taken from the novel The Master and Margarita. There is a chapter within the book entitled "Koroviev's antics," and I personally think public forums and antics go hand-in-hand.

 

[I Max95]

its my nickname
I is my first ential and maxwell is my middle name
also i love movies so it fits

i was born in 95
