It was a nickname I was given when I was really young by my sister. I really like it, and I use it as my online name now.

I'm considering changing the "m" to a capital letter though. Think I should?
I changed mine the other day so I'm fairly sure that adding in a capital doesn't count as your name change
I know it doesn't count as your one change, I'm just debating between actually doing it or not.
In that case you might as well change it. If you don't like it just flip it right back.

I got really confused then: you have now changed it to capitals haven't you?
Yes, I changed it a few minutes ago. I'll see how I like it for a while.
I prefer it this way. It seems more like a proper name.

That's why I was debating whether to change it or not. I've always had it lower-case, so it seems odd to me to see it like it is now, but I suppose I'll get used to it.

I looked into the mirror, and exclaimed out load ''What a handsome gentleman!!!!!'' but I signed up for something and it was too long, so I shortened it slightly.

Ugh.

I just used my Xbox GT. I picked it awhile back when I thought something like QuickDEMOL1SHER was actually cool and from then on I never felt like spending ten dollars just for a stupid name change. However, if Microsoft makes it free, I will be the first in line.

my name started since I was a little kid where my friends and I used codenames in airsoft, mine was hunter cause I was really accurate with airsoft. Also my 360 and steam name. The 6475 consists of 2 numbers i love, 64, and 75, dunno why.

It was my Runescape name a LOOOOONNNNNNGGGGGG time ago.
I dunno, when I made my account, a name that had something to do with a high military status appealed to me, so I just added my first name after it.
Upon learning there was already a General Ken, it recommended General Ken8, so I just chose that

well.....my username came about because Jak and Daxter was my favorite video game at the time, and my dad's license plate on his car happened to be "Jak2364".

I have a cat called Arwen (Just... don't comment) and, being the 10-year old prospective Runescape player that I was, I stuck an extra sound on the front and set off into Tutorial Island.

Yep. It doesn't use up your 'only' name change if you only change the capitalisation.
Oddly, that's where mine came from too. I was in year 4 (I forget how old I was) And was creating a second account for Runescape after my first one got banned. I took my initials:
David
Angus
Farmer
I had the Nickname 'Daffy Duck' because of my wide, flat feet,
and I then thought that I should put my initial on the end again. Hence: Daffy F

It began as an insult to me a few years back. Then it grew on me and for...8 or 9 years, I've been Lambi.
Why? Because I have curly hair...

I've used "Feriluce" ever since I started gaming. It has always been my first and foremost alias and is from a CoF song:


Shining Feriluce
Lustrous scourge of fallen spirits
Basked in glory, flew
To lakes in sacred altitudes
Shining Feriluce
Reflected in a jaded mirror
Climbing from the noose
Of time in divine servitude
