I tried making "MartianFightingMachine" on one site, but that was taken, so I put "MartianWarMachine" instead, and then I used it everywhere. All hail Jeff Wayne!
What's the meaning of your username?

Its the first and last letters of my given name, middle name, and surname. Thats it really. I use it because its always available, and I dont need random letters or numbers. The only problem is i've ever had was the last part of my name being censored on some sites because of this: read the second entry [http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=nbr]. But its a rare occurrence, and people done seem to know that meaning (I sure didnt)
Back when I used to play Spore, I called one of my very first creations a "scorpatious".
I decided to create a Youtube account with the name, only to find out that I accidentally added a "t" after the "p". It stuck however, so I decided to use that username in almost every site I go to.
And that's how I became known as scorptatious!

Named after the character Big Smoke from GTA: San Andreas.
Which is weird because I have nothing in common with him, but I loved SA and thought the name sounded kinda cool.
#str8 thuggin homie
^Used to be my avatar. It was far more relevant.

This one was one I made when I was like 8 and it's stuck. Basically it's a character from an SNES game called Illusion of Gaia. The assassin, The Jackal, who was foreshadowed after the first dungeon. I didn't actually finish the game until about 7 years later (I saved in the Mushroom Mountain area, and that place is a huge maze, and I left the game for a few months. Didn't know where I was and I gave up for a long time). I have to say I was disappointed when I finally got to him. 87 is the year I was born.
My other ones are characters I made for DnD.
Dhallus Thall(The one I use very commonly now, I don't use the surname usually), Is a Chaotic Good/Neutral/Evil (He changes over the story), who was the first villain I made that I was proud of because he was pretty relate able until his inner demon drives him insane and takes over. The name was take from an enemy type in a browser-based MMO I played. Dolus Thrall, change some letters and rearrange the rest.
Kobalt Kilganon - I go with this one if I want to RP a "good guy". I don't know the origin of the name really, but I made this character when I first realized I was a furry. My persona at that time was a Cobalt blue fox (Pretty much a darker blue, male version of Krystal, without any of the sex appeal). Later I changed personas, but the name stuck. Kilganon was added when I was trying to come up with a surname for the character in a game I'm making. I decided to borrow a name from Coheed and Cambria, the surname of the protagonist in that story (Kilgannon, or Killgannon, not sure which spelling). And it's stuck with me since.
I don't usually Thejackyl87 or Kobalt Kilganon as names anymore, mainly because I love my creation of Dhallus too much. Seriously, it was hard for me to create a villain you could relate to, while still making him the villain.

Well, El Kabong is an alternate ego of Hanna Barbera cartoon, Quickdraw McGraw. His shtick is that he's Zorro...if Zorro just smashed people on the head with a guitar, yelling "Kabong".
I also have adopted a certain level of irony associated with it. So, political types may note the below image as being Woody Guthrie's guitars. Commonly, it's adopted by extreme left-wing artists. Not that I disagree with what these people say, but whenever the conversation where the image was shown below (or written on some other songwriter's guitar), I found it extremely funny to image some leftist politician swinging overhead and bashing GW Bush and/or Reagan on the head. That, or by directly drawing the comparison of whatever serious, leftist band/group/artist to cartoon characters in discussions with extremely left-sided people.

You can find the reason for my name here:
At around the 10 minute mark.
I loved Beyblade when I was younger. It would have been like Dranzer, Driger, Dragoon or Draciel, but they were really popular and already taken. Griffolion was a decent sounding name that barely anyone knew about. So there you go.

It's Latin for (lit): Contradicting Eyes, or can be translated to: "Counter Argument", I tend to play the Devils advocate and I see the world in a very different way from most people. Though, this Username is a little outdated (because it's Prentensious), that's why I often use the user name "Mr. Pedantic" now, as a bit of a pejoritive nickname for my attention to correctness.
Textrodotoxin, frequently abbreviated as TTX, The toxin can enter the body by ingestion, injection, inhalation and through abraded skin.[25] The mechanism of toxicity is through the blockage of fast voltage-gated sodium channels. These are required for the normal transmission of signals between the body and brain, as a result, TTX causes paralysis of voluntary muscles (including the diaphragm and intercostal muscles, stopping breathing), the loss of vagal regulation of heart rate (causing it to increase to around 100bpm), and loss of sensation
ts name derives from pufferfish, porcupinefish, ocean sunfish or mola, and triggerfish, blue-ringed octopus, rough-skinned newt, and Naticidae.
The toxin was first isolated and named in 1909 by Japanese scientist Dr. Yoshizumi Tahara but the first recorded cases of TTX poisoning were from the logs of Captain James Cook from 7 September 1774, on which date Cook recorded his crew eating some local pufferfish, then feeding the remains to the pigs kept on board. The crew experienced numbness and shortness of breath, while the pigs were all found dead the next morning. In hindsight, it is clear that the crew received a mild dose of tetrodotoxin, while the pigs ate the pufferfish body parts that contain most of the toxin, thus being fatally poisoned.

When I started playing Maplestory, I named my first character Takedown1. One day, I met this girl and me and her became online friends very fast and became inseparable in game (I think we were both kinda lonely irl). Eventually, she started calling me "takey" since I didn't tell her my real name for quite awhile. Eventually I made a new character and called it what my username is now. The "b0y" with a 0 instead of an o just kinda... Happened, no real reason why. The 2 at the end is because I was stupid and the account that had the first "takeyb0y" on it got phished and I had to start all over again, making my next character "takeyb0y2". And that username just kinda stuck with me forever.
I find the username kinda dumb now, and I've started using "KuzunohaXXII". Too bad I can't change my username here :l
As for Kuzunoha, it's from here [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shin_Megami_Tensei:_Devil_Summoner:_Raidou_Kuzunoha_vs._The_Soulless_Army].

'Grouchy' - used because I am a grumpy and cantankerous fellow.
'Imp' - used because I have a mischievous and childish sense of humour.
Fairly straightforward, and it says a lot that I gave myself this moniker in the early 90's (playing Mechwarrior on Compuserve servers) and haven't felt the need to change it since.

Signa was a warrior angel in a book I read. I want to change it now that I'm not religious and I've seen a few instances of Signa being an actual girls name. Strangely, I don't remember the angel being a girl though. Still, I've been Signa so long it doesn't even mean either of those things to me so I'm not going to bother coming up with a new name for myself.
Some random sound making a feminine name. Searching it I had found some pages with 'kala hee' which I never found a translation. Searching it now Google is filled with my profile from various websites and my deviant art pages and some "meet love" scam sites. Someone once told me it was a sound in some african tribes to call for attention. Trying to find a translation on Google Translate in Hindi I got "Art" for Kala, well that works for me, but i mostly like that it's unique, or almost?
