A few years ago my dad bought a new car. A Toyota Aygo, to be precise.
We don't normally name cars in our house, but someone in the office suggested one, so it became a 'thing'.
It seemed to attract dust inside, so I suggested we call it 'Dusty Fred Aygo'.
We agreed this was a sound moniker; mainly because it sounds like the name of a blues singer. Go on, say it out loud and imagine it's accompanied by a languid 12-to-the-bar riff.

QED.

I'm sorry if I deceived anyone into thinking this would be an interesting answer.

I once discussed how people could be viewed as mixtures of liquid (different combinations of traits etc), and how if you got into a bad relationship the liquid would turn into a bad color, or if you really admired someone it would become a lovely color. So I guess the user name is me striving be seen as a "lovely mixture."

Mine is a mix of incorrect spelling and FF VII.

I was playing VII with my young cousin watching after getting Red XIII I was told to name him Dr.Seuss which I then spelt very wrong.

Thus my online persona was born.

I think I did it as a way to describe poor examples of proof on forums. Not really sure now. I might have been drinking when I signed up.

Beyond sentimental meaning, it has none. It's an amalgamation of two previous usernames of mine.

Exius was my Human Knight in R.O.H.A.N.: Blood Feud.

Xavarus was originally Xavar. The name of my Water Taoist in Conquer Online.

When I started Guild Wars, I needed a first name and a last name. So I latinized Xavar to create Xavarus and created the name Exius Xavarus for my Dervish in Guild Wars. And since then it has become my primary username.

It's an alternative rock band. I don't even like the band, I just think it sounds cool.

I wish I could change it actually.

I had to put an I(i) instead of the second L because hollow wasn't available. I do hope that people do read it as hollow however.

As for what it means or where it came from, I took it from a dota RPG map while trying to find out a nick for my first character in World of Warcraft (back in 2004). It could also refer to Dark Soul or Dark Ghost (hollow meaning ghost/soul in the Bleach anime).

Siege is the phoenetic pronounciation of my nickname, while TF was my clan handle for Starcraft 1 way, way, way, way back in the day.

So now here I am, writing on a game forum with many ideas on stories to write and no drive to do them.

Now I feel sad...
Oi, I used to write up my lucid dreams into short stories, though my writing ability never made me happy to read them post-draft.

TheCommanders. My name is Anders. Some guy from back when I was in school called me Anders the Comm"Anders". I thought it was funny so now it's my username. Yay.

Derived from Futurama.

In one episode Bender refers to Fry as Cardinal Biggles, but that was taken on Xbox Live, so I changed the B to a P, removed the space, and hey presto.

As usual, it's a stupid name that just sticks because I'm too lazy to come up with something better.

I was bout 10-11 when i started using this, tried to spell Kamakaze, this was the result, normally accompanied with 893 or 287, no real reason why, had created it for wow or was it warcraft 3? regardless
