Your screen name and its meaning...

[bakedpotato]

We all have a unique screen name on this site. I was just wondering if you guys mind sharing the meaning behind it :D My screen name is bakedpotato because well...I like baked potato :D

[Xrebirth]

Well its a somewhat long story lol.

First I used x754 because my friend thought it up for me back in grade 6.
Then I decided to use Xreborn a few years back.
Then starting this year decided to use Xrebirth because it sounded better to me then the other 2.

Meh that's the short version of it lol :P

If you don't mind me being nosy but is there a significant meaning behind that X in Xrebirth? Or is it just because it sounds cool like that? :cool:

[sayw]

sayw

syarifah aisyah yong wahid

satisfied xD

[Taikan]

Cool name, from cool character, from cool movie (Kuro obi; aka Black Belt)... my other common nicknames faded into oblivion :O

[verastra]

well actually i have a few screen names myself

Verastra - Vera or Viera is a rabbit in final fantasy while Astra is my ragnarok nick.combine it both and you should get the name Verastra.

Pryde - This is from the Battletech series (if anybody reads em that is)

Vlad - Also from the Battletech series (Vladimir Ward Of Clan Wolf),yes im a trueborn.

Arthemiz - this is mainly used for FPS games (Artemis is a great greek god that fought in the Trojan War,well even tho she is a female,but with a twist of the lettering it became a male for me..hahaha)

[LtKillroy]

This is my screen name, there are many like it but this one is mine.

Basically, Kilroy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilroy_was_here) is an old WWII joke that has survived. Origins are shakey, but I found it interesting. I changed it to Killroy because it was easier to remember (people always typed it in when I told them Kilroy, brain went straight to Kill instead of Kil) and I thought it made it cooler. Also made it more unique. Added the Lt (lieutenant) because it made it seem more military (I play a lot of FPS's) and always have kept it because it also made it more unique, and therefore not taken by people. Lt also rolls off the tongue easier than many things and is semi-high up on the ladder of promotions. Not to mention lieutenants actually tend to fight on the front lines more than many other higher-up officers. And Sgt is cliched.

(Unintended wall of text)

[bakedpotato]

This is all very interesting :D It's very nice to know the meaning behind it. Now it's not just a screen name anymore.

Wooo, another fan of the series. I love Sons of Anarchy too. It's one of a few shows that I really enjoy on TV.

[StarElf]

StarElf, variant StarElven

An elven race that lives and travels among the stars, mediating disputes among the various races of the universe, upholding the laws beholden upon all space-faring races. Typically dwelling on moons orbiting non-evolved worlds who have yet to enter the galactic community and observing said worlds. Typically light/pale skin and white/albino hair. The goddess of the StarElven race is Luminae who guides travellers among the stars and created the StarLords as her enforcers.

[Spydermage]

mine simple.. spiderman is my fav hero and i like mage classes for all fantasy games.

spider-mage looks weird... then one of my friend change is to spyder for me. so then on, i have been using spyder for almost all games. if i happen to play mage class, its spydermage. :)

[Samwise93]

Samwise93- the least clever name. My name is Sam and I'm realitivly short and fat, so it matches up well. Also my year of birth is 93 so thats where that was thrown on. And it was started by one of my friends older brothers friends (if that makes any sense).

[Krullthor]

Krull i dont remember where i saw it warriorish name and Thor from Ancient Mythology mostly known from the Marvel Comics son of Odin brother of Loki :)

[Kaiten]

Isn't samwise also one of the hobbits in LotR? =]

As for my name...uh I just made it up...with following criterias: start with strong K sound and sound japanese and i got it =]...apparently wiki says it's "translated 'Change the World' or 'Reverse Destiny'".So I got more than what I intended it to be heh.

[StarElf]

Krull i dont remember where i saw it warriorish name and Thor from Ancient Mythology mostly known from the Marvel Comics son of Odin brother of Loki :)

Just BTW... Krull is a Fantasy/Sci-fi movie from 1983.

Good to know :) :goodjob:

Samwise is also the Alias of one of the Artists that made several drawings for Blizzard :)

[Manager123]

Well my name is manager123 because i like playing FM manager :)

[Tuanie]

my real name is Tuan,
but most of my friend call me Tuanie
so yeah :)

[Keats]

John Keats is a british poet who inspires Dan Simmons' Hyperion

[Marisa the Rainmaker]

Marisa is a myrmidon from Fire Emblem 8, and I picked that name out of random (I don't really like the character or anything). Strangely enough, my main is an archer instead of a sword despite the name, and I won't change it to sword until the mains could finally be better than the mercs.

If I can, though, I so wish I could remove "the Rainmaker" from my name. It sounds horrible =x.

It's gonna be THE game next year. I can't wait for that either :D

[KrimsonAce]

KrimsonAce

~Bit of a long story, but here's the rundown.
I've always been a bit of a pyromaniac, loving the color of fire. One day while playing NFS:C, the last crew you had to fight was named Krimson, and I became obsessed with the name, it's relation to cars (my hobby) and to the color crimson, which is similar to fire. Ace relates to a military jet fighter who has shot down more than (I forgot the number :D) number of enemy planes in combat, and I loved both jets and the view of a jet flame. Combining my love of fire, planes, and cars, gave me the name of KrimsonAce. Ta-da! :D

[Flabble]

omfg necroposting!

Herm....my name.....It was the first word that popped up into my head. I had no clue what it meant, i just used it

...later I searched it in Urban Dictionary and discovered it meant excessive body fat. I decided to never again to use this name -.-

[Zilpzalp]

You know this bird? Chiffchaff (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiffchaff)... uhm. Yes. I love it so much <3

But since I am in germany, since I behave like a german and since I would call myself one, what about its german name?

Here thou go! (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zilpzalp)

[wraith75]

wraith75 : from Wraith, an obscure Marvel Comics character, former friend of Wolverine, and 75 for my birthyear (ok, I'm not that young anymore :))

When I was younger, I always used "Wolf" as nick, but then I settled on "Wraith"

AlannaSaeli (IGN) : in all the RPGs I played, I named (when possible) my character Alanna Silverstar.
When I played the World of Warcraft trial version (never played past those 7 days, don't wanna pay and Atlantica's so much better imo), "Alanna Silverstar" didn't fit in the name box so I had to make it shorter and Saeli was the first thing that came to my mind and sounded fantasy-like enough.

[raznik]

Raznik - random name of one of my characters back when I was still playing pRO (Philippine Ragnarok Online)... just a random name from my head.. got too lazy to think of another name so i named my character as such and also my account here and in the AO main forums :)

as simple as that...

[Trucido]

Trucido - Its Latin. It means "to kill" or "i kill"

[k0n0k0]

My screen name comes from the videogame Oni's character, Konoko Hasegawa.

[macsu]

Hi all, my user name is Macsu that comes from 5th grade when we were bored in school and started to play card games. I taught ppl the game Machu - Pichu and the name kinda stuck on me. Then it became Machu only since it is smaller. Take this and the fact that I'm hungarian and you get the hungarian spelling Macsu :)

this is not my IGN however, IGN is usualy Enkyl ... this comes from Anne Rice's vampire chronicles where the elder vampire was named Enkil. I liked the spelling better with "y" + usualy enkil is already taken IG. :)

If I create more chars or so I try to use the rest of the vampire names, except Lestat which seems to "comercialized" :)
