From a misread song title. For those of you who must know, it's "Brain Cleaner (Replay)" From F-ZERO GX, I misread it as "Brain Cleanser" due to the lights of the track and my own silly, silly brain.
I thought it sounded cool, so it stuck. And even works on PSN. *Headshot* "You've just been Brain Cleansed!"

When we were kids my cousin and I created a an alien race and would play as alter egos from that race, my alias was Rylot Sheer, I rather like it so I still use it for all my internet stuff.

Mine is a familiar variation of "Valkyrie" that is used by people who know me in real life. I think that only my Mum uses my original given name. I have used Valkyrie as an online handle since the mid 90s and it sort of stuck.

I'm the fourth J. Moore in my family (JBM are the initials given to the first born on my father's side) and i play ska. So the 4 is both the number and the word "for" as in "in support of." Hence, jmoore4ska!

I was listening to the Sky Eats Airplane song "She Is Just A Glitch". I changed that up into I_Am_Just_A_Glitch, but it was too long and tedious to keep retyping, so I shortened it to Just_A_Glitch, and now its my name for practically everything online.

I'm a caterpillar that's pissed-off because I'm stuck in this form and have been for years. In this time I've discovered human civilization, language, and now the internet. I mean duh, it's so obvious!

War Penguin was the name of a cartoon I was designing. I think the story was pretty well described in the title: There are penguins and they fight each other. Brilliant, right? Well, yes, it did on paper. The final product, on the other hand, was a different story. Still, I got pretty attached to the name, so I kept it as my own little title.

... And also because I'm a penguin... with weapons.

Conjugation of Caligula and Love.

That and turns out to be a Them Crooked Vultures song. Which is also awesome

About.... holy crap over 10 years ago now. Looking for a new user name as I was sick of having mine taken. So I grabbed the dictionary and started looking. And well I found it, kinda liked it, and now I never ever have troubles with other people using my name. In fact never come across anyone else that uses it. So if you see someone around with this user name you have a 90% chance it will be me!

I moved my dwarf Rogue in WoW from one server to another and the name "Gheed" was taken, so I searched up a cool sounding German word again. I liked the word Sturm, meaning Storm, so I checked what dagger is (since that isn't something you commonly talk about with your parents). It was dolch. Combine the two, you get Sturmdolch. Storm-dagger!

And I've been using it since then, replacing my previous moniker, Greedo. That one was from Star Wars and I'd used it since I first used the internet.

I actually have no idea where it came from. I can imagine the impracticality of a chrome warrior but at least they'd be able to reflect the sun into their enemies eyes. Oddly enough, I don't really like chrome. The XIII is just because I like roman numerals and like the number 13.
