It's an obscure reference to the Belgariad series of books. My name is Tom, and in the Belgariad, disciples of Aldur put the prefix Bel- in front of their names.
Nice one. I love those books... I want to read them again, but I know longer go to school, so I can't borrow them from the library... I do own Redemption Of Althalus.

Anyway, mine is a bonus track from the band Children Of Bodom. Just a random jazz track, amidst all the Death Metal...
The keyboardist was trained in jazz for 6 years, so yeah... But yeah, it amuses me, and I figured it would make a cool username. And it's really obscure, I have yet to see anyone else using it...

Rhope? This name came about from MUD experiences and part of a Out Of Character discussion of a typo, I meant to type 'I need rope' and it came out:
"I ned rhope."
I got variations of the typo for hours after wards, ribbing from friends. Eventually it got shorted to just rhope and it stuck.
It became the generic name I used for throw away characters, then it became the user name I used when I was testing out sites or games with a log in.

My current STEAM name was a recent development (Halp!). It first came about as a joke about a game I forgot the name of. The way NPC guards said help when they spotted the player, I had a macro for the sound file of it in some games, use to play it at random intervals.

Shadowsole I thought of it when I was horribly depressed about 8 years ago when i was nine. It was meant to be shadowsoul but I couldn't spell it and I asked my dad, I said "how do you spell soul? not the one on your feet the other one" but he miss heard me (I hope...) so yeah...

I'm also most of the shadowsoles found on google, exsept the WOW one.

Drummie comes from the fact that I am a drummer. 666 comes from a stupid thing some christians say about atheists following satan. (I'm an atheist if you couldn't figure that out from the last sentence.

Well, Norendithas Songsteel is the full name. To be exact, it is the name of my first D&D character (not the online version, which isn't nearly as good as having a DM), who is a Half Elf Bard.

Honestly, I was bored and I found the awesome flash game site Kongregate. I was in a rebellious mood so I decided to be a wasted youth, since that sounds punk rock-ish. And '89 is the year I was born.

My username comes from Babylon 5. Black Omega is an elite unit attached to the Psi Corps which is awesome and was created by Alfred Bester who is more awesome. Plus their Starfury design looks so good.
The two? I don't really remember where the two came from, I suppose a number is just better.

I got mine from an asian person who couldn't say my name properly. Not being racist it's just how it happened.

I've honestly got no idea. I've been using Xealeon for a decent while now and for the life of me I cannot remember its origins.

Well, a few years ago, I fell in love with the band Sky Eats Airplane (a shame I didn't care for their second album as much as their first), and my favorite song off of their first album is She Is Just A Glitch. So, I took that and changed it to I Am Just A Glitch. But, after awhile, I got annoyed having that long of a name, and shortened it to Just A Glitch, and it has stuck ever since.

Enriel is a name I randomly thought up and really liked the sound of. Later I found out that one of my friends had used it as the name of a character they had drawn, so I may have subconsciously stolen it. However, after that point, being the massive nerds we were, we had several RP campaigns and I used the name more often and my Enriel got much more in depth character development and it officially became my name.

And then I just decided to use it for everything. Cause it sounds cool I think.
