Ambivalent.

Ambi, a prefix meaning both ways, like ambidextrous.

I started to not like it, because it sounds kind of like a cutesey, girly nickname for someone called Amber, which I am not.

I suppose it reflects on my indecisiveness.

For some reason I had to turn upside down to read it backwards.

Mine comes from an odd habit I had in Fallout 3 for stealing garden gnomes. I kept them and used them to decorate my Tenpenny suite.

Well, when I had to pick a username, I said "It has to be witty, original, and has to describe me" and I realized, I'm a rather snarky person, why not have a snarky username?

snarky username...

Snarky Username!

And the rest is history.

tklivory = tickle ivory, i.e., piano player (the phrase 'tickle the ivories' is an oooold way of saying 'play the piano' from when piano keys used to be made out of ivory)

I'm a pianist, what can I say?

My username is short for a name I had on the first MMORPG I played, Asheron's Call. The name is weird as hell on its own, and oddly, I really don't have a story for it, I just thought it up on the spot and didn't care. The name: Klak At' Klon
Wow! An Asheron's Call post, you don't see many of those. I still play AC, almost 11yrs and still going strong. It has the best character skill customization, PvP(if you like that style of play), monthly updates with new story lines, quests and critters.

I picked my name from the "the Prisoner" series which I first watched in the mid 1970's when it was on Oregon PBS.

be seeing you.

I chose my nickname at the time my whole country was on Anthrax alert.
Some politicians had received a series of letters with a suspicious white powder in them.
Nothing really serious happened though.
But I thought the name of a product for biological warfare was pretty cool.

Contrary to popular belief, my nick is NOT derived form the band Anthrax. (but they are also pretty cool)

A 3 letter Rotation Cipher [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_cipher] (or Caeser Cipher) of Cold spells the word Frog. Just dumb coincidence, but I liked it. Then I decided to never change it and for most places I haven't had to.

I just thought it looked cool. Originally was "Zehidra", then changed it to "Zehydra" so that the pronunciation was clear. the original wasn't a mispelling it's just how I wanted it. I guess the 'y' looks cooler anyway.

Well it used to be Estovakia, an AC6 reference, then one of my friends misread it as "Ester-Carvio". And i misheard that as Estocavio (Es-Toe-Cay-Vee-'O'). And so a unique identity was born!

I came up with my name when i was trying to make up a name for the first online game i ever played (it was runescape.)
Couldnt think of anything else and now its my name on XBL, PSN, etc.
Whenever i cant choose it i always choose devmustkill or devdudedude.

uh, That's not it. I just typed something random into the "new username: " field and it sounded cool so I stuck with it. I actually made it like 8 years ago for Graal online (lol).
