Why is your username special and/or how did you think/get it?

[Carl The Manicorn]

What... how should I put this...inspired you to make up your username?

For mine, my sister calls me Ducky all the time. So as I was watching "Back to the Future", I thought, "It would be cool to..." then I thought "Duckymcfly" then my favorite number 99 (because it's almost one hundred, but isn't. It has this sense of infinitive suspense).

 

[DrDeath3191]

My name isn't all that special. I just went with something that sounded menacing, back in my Starcraft days. Soon, that name was always taken, so I used the digits of my birthday, and BOOM: DrDeath3191.

 

[ScruffyTheJanitor]

The simple yet effective.
"I'm Scruffy, the janitor"

 

[Pimppeter2]

I had this name on the first forum I was on. oblivionsource I love you!

So I brought it over. Sure its silly and kiddie, but its fun

 

[walls of cetepedes]

My fiend at school called me it as a joke, so I used it as my Gamertag. I now use it everywhere.

 

[Time Travelling Toaster]

Time Travelling Toaster, see the User name Origin thread and all will be explained.

 

[BlindTom]

Because I'm blind. A fact that seems to greatly amuse the people on this forum sometimes.

 

[TalonsOfWar]

well my favorite brib like species is the hawk,falcon,eagle so i put talonsofwar because they are birds of prey

 

[Dorian]

Do I really need to spell it out for you???

 

[Wadders]

It's mah nickname amongst my mates

Surname= Waddington, hence nickname = Wadders

And thats all there is to it.

And it's pronounced Wadders (as in a wad of money) not Waders (as in the big waterproof leggings people use when fishing)- I've heard plenty a Yank mis-pronounce it, much to my annoyance

 

[Arkhangelsk]

I... Have a crazy haircut... And I'm born 94.

 

[UberMore]

My friend made a small comic spoof of The Matrix where Morfeus was called "Morefungus".
3 Years later I remember this, and decide to ride with "UberMorefungus" cos I became a God at SSX Tricky, and seeing as "Ubermoves" get the most points for single tricks I thought I may aswell slap that infront.
Typing "UberMorefungus" can get annoying, and as this is a casual site (well, I see it as more community), I thought I'd shorten it to "Ubermore"...

And that is a very long and boring story.

 

[Souplex]

Suplexes are awesome, there was a soup place with no official title that I called the "souplex", Souplex sounds awesome. Becuz pour literusy is kewl.

 

[hortez the champion of the frozen wastes]

My name comes from an achievement in World of Warcraft. The Hortez part is just a name I always thought was funny.

 

[Zombie_Fish]

Well, Zombie-Fish was my Bebo url, and then Bebo changed it to Zombie_Fish, and it has kind of stuck ever since.

Oh, and the words Zombie and Fish were just random ones I used at the time.
