my complete Alias is Kalaim Badkaama. I made up the name Badkarma when playing Duke nukem 3d on lan. Then one night while i was on a real killing spree, (almost 45 kills without death in a row against 6 opponent) i change my nick to Kill'em Badkarma.
a few year later, I started playing live music actz on stage and slightly changed it to Kalaim Badkaama.

I stopped playing Duke nukem

I'm still playing music.

I just thought mine sounded cool. Made it up one day and never looked back.

Also, it's slightly more imaginative than "The Shadow"

IrishDelinquent kinda sprang out of nowhere. Let's just say it had something to do with Bailey's, toilet paper, and running from the police.

Well, when I was younger I always thought it would be cooler if I changed my name to Kristy (don't ask me why, I really don't know) But after a while I dropped off the "K" and Risty became my penname and the name of my OC in the fanfic I was writing. But 'Risty' isn't enough letters so now my screenname is Risty-chan

My alias is Soren Alenko. I came to adopt that name because I can't stand my birth name. (you would too if you knew the reason behind it.). Anyway, the 'history' I guess behind it is this:
Soren comes from one of my favoriet book characters (Soren from the Guardians of Ga'Hoole series.) and it's also what this group of peopel called me when I was going through shit.

Alenko comes from Kaidan Alenko of Mass Effect fame. I decided upon that because I felt that Kaidan was the best personality in the game (and most likeable). Also, I felt that 'Soren Alenko' sounded really good.

I took my name from a party member in a very OBSCURE (wink) game. The guy was hard as hell to get and I only returned him to his mortal coil once through the power of ARCANA. But all the other times he attacked me so I got really STEAMED and WORKED up.
The De Meridian part of my name was added for a LARP I used to fight in.

I originally used it in my email as it was unique, and it stuck throughout. These days I use it as my persona, on line and as a pseudonym for my art.

I was at a beach, and some dudes & chicks needed more people for vollyball, so I volunteered myself and my best friend to play, even though we had just got done with mile repeats on a hard XC day.

So some of the dudes started calling me Johnny All Star constantly and I didn't mind, so after we crush the other team (hint: Bump, set, spike.) he asks me what my name is because I played ok enough for him, and well, yeah it's John, so /win, and /stuck.

Used the name on the first forum I joined up on in my life, VGMusic, a site that made MIDI versions of game music pieces. I needed a name that was to do with games but sounded kinda badass since I couldn't pick a single obscure gaming-related name to go with, somehow end up at FinalGamer because UltraGamer or UltimateGamer sounds too smug.

After a while I came upon the forum of a furry webcomic and after a while decided to make FinalGamer something more than some cyborg ripoff of the Omar from Deus Ex: Invisible War. So now he's a gaming anthro velociraptor, and always will be.

It came to me when me and my friends were talking about wet sand, I always thought it was called mud. So I made up the word Heppenfeph which now means wet sand, I liked to sound of it so now I use it on various games and websites.

This is a long story.

It started back when Halo first came out. Me and a bunch of friends would get together every Sunday with 4 tvs, 4 boxes, 4 copies of the game, 16 controls, 3 pizzas and a lot of soda. My name started off as my name, but seeing things like "TopTen" "Mr.Domino" "Feather" "Saucey" and then my name, made me decide I needed a good tag. At the time I was playing horribly, and usually ranking in the bottom 5 of every game, so liking Japan a lot I got a Japanese to English dictionary and looked up the words "Dead Meat" and thus my first tag of "Deddo Niku" was born. Lots of practice later and I start being in the top 3 of all the games we play and I decide I'm no longer dead meat so I need to change it. At the time I had just finished the anime Serial Experiment Lain, and at the end the main char becomes(as far as I can tell) God of the Internet. So I made my name Lain, but I felt like such a rip-off so I took my other favorite anime character "Nicholas D. Wolfwood" and tried to fuse the two. After about half an hour I randomly typed "Lainwood" and upon saying it out loud went "Hey...that has a nice ring to it." and thus my name for everything ever since was born.

It was a nickname I've had since high school, but always pronounced with some approximation of a black accent, hence "Mogan Freeman"

Arcade machines were my first touch to gaming, and you always had to give your 3 initials when you got to the top 10 list. And I often did :) In computer wonder world where you have OVER 3 characters to type, I felt I should conserve characters but in my excessiveness I wanted to use 4(!), just because I could. And the end with my first 2 initials was a good match those letters that made the string to be my nickname used in real world.

In case anyone is intrested how to read it, its not how english would usually read "late", its more like how you'd say "latte" with short t.

I got mine from two places one from Fullmetal Alchemist the character pride was one of my favorites in the series, so I stole his name. The 42 I picked it because it is the answer to life the universe and everything. Nothing to special but random things I like.
