I was thinking of a common description of items nowadays and with time being short everyone needs things instantly. And Benz is my last name. I took this on a few years ago as I lost touch with my former aliases. Oh, and I dislike spaces ... makes it more rapid.

When subscribing here, I had no idea what to use. I like playing Pyro in TF2 but wanted more than just pyro or pyro123. My train of thought went something like this: "pyro, isn't that latin? Are there other latin words for fire related stuff?" Turned out that ignis is a word for fire. Jam them together and you have Pyrignis.
I already know what it is, so I'll make two guesses.Julianking93 said:

Sitting in the car one day...my brother and my father were bantering about how my Dad tends to refer to himself as 'The Great and Powerful Odd' (instead of oz, obviously). My nickname up to that point had been Lizard(Elizabeth-->Liz-->catching lizards in south Florida-->Lizard). It just kinda flowed out at one point, and it's been my online persona ever since.

Alumnus of Rutger's University who wanted something in the Medieval / fantasy vein. Can't believe it was actually available.
I made this name about 3 years ago for my main WoW character, and the name ended up sticking. Its origins are a bit fuzzy, in that I basically mashed it together from different sources to make something that was unique and sorta interesting. I then took "Rei" from this new name and applied that as a nickname. Only later on did I find out that my nickname was, in fact the name of a major anime character I had never heard of up until that point, namely Rei Ayanami. However, once I decided to check it out, I decided that I liked Rei enough that I decided to keep the name, the nickname, and to embrace my new discovery by making Rei my avatar of choice.
It's more complicated than that obviously, but that's the gist of it.

I needed a nick for PSN and everything I usually used was taken. My current username is from history (Erbkaiser = Hereditary Emperor, a title of the Habsburgs when they were Holy Roman Emperor), and since I'm somewhat of a history nut it fits.
This one was free at least...

I'm interested in Soviet Russia so I decided to make a username based on that. The Tsar part came from the fact that Communist's and the Russian empire hated each other so I thought it would be cool to include that.
