Explain Your Username

[ultimatemythbuster]

Anyone else love Mythbusters on the Discovery channel?

[nWinn]

Mine is quite boring I guess... My legal name is Nate Winn, I would hope you can figure it out from there.. lol

But still, it works quite well imo.

[Nerikk]

When me and my friends were young they couldn't pronounce my full name, so they shortened it to this. And to this day they still call me by my nickname.

[Syraz]

Its a play on words? On most MMO's I have used the Nickname Azilla for my main toons. I made a character on a certain one, but was named after a former forum moderator, since their name usage info says no current forum moderator names can be used or forced a name switch. I was just whiney about it because I again proved their agreement wrong. I wanted to add the "az" part in it, and went with a name of a wine by a lesser known spelling.. "whine and wine" :-) Yes I was that bored that day....Like the name enough I have used it more than Azilla..

[Jkl]

Jkl - Initials. Boring

KtmJkl(my dirtbike with my initials)

^looks like I facerolled my username so try and stick with Jkl.

Old handle was savedpinatas if you watched the "save the piñatas" video.

I think we can rule out my "childhood handles" Ghost_ftw and pinata_ice and every variation of them mixed under the sun.

[Sir. Smudge]

Smudge is a nickname that I picked up when I was in like year three. And "Sir"smudge"is just something I picked up along the way.

[Shakaza]

Shakaza is a name that I made up. At the time, I thought I would use it for the name of a character in a story, but that never happened and the name just stuck 'cuz I like it.

[Ringtail Jax]

I made mine when I made my deviant art account, eventually being used for my YT and now LTT

[Iggledude]

I'm an Eagles fan (as in Philadelphia Eagles).  It's a NFL team.  I've been a hardcore fan of the Iggles since I was about 10 years old.

 

Most people from the Philly area sound like they are saying "Iggles" instead of "Eagles" -- it's the accent I suppose.  

 

So... it just came to me to use it as a username.  I use it for many different accts.

 

Go Iggles!!

[kushari]

kushari is an Egyptian food my mom used to cook in high school. Everyone started calling me it, even teachers, and some were surprised when I showed up in their class and raised my hand when they called my real name. That was over 10 years ago, and now everyone still calls me Kush.

[Jed]

My name is Jed. My username is Jed. 

[mikeangeles 75]

My name is Jed. My username is Jed. 

That's...... deep. My friend's name is also Jed.

[D_____]

It's my real name with underscores replacing all but the D.

[Ryan Leech]

It's my name...

[gatecrasherlok]

My name came from a UK club that I used to practically live in, in the younger days and the last three letters is secret :0

[Milesgaming]

Well, my second name is Miles, and ''Miles'' was taken. So, I like tech, but I don't wanna be a total rip off and go ''MilesTech'' so, I like gaming so I figured why not go with the second most non-original name ''Milesgaming'' LOL

[pizzarino]

I like pizza and my nickname is rino

[Kumotman]

I'm a gamer and I've always wanted to have a username that kinda defines my gaming enthusiasm. One day I saw this commercial for a cereal where this kid was being called to breakfast by his mom and he is dressed up as "Eagle-Man", shouting "Eagle-Man is a superhero that doesn't eat breakfast. The kid was dressed up in a make shift eagle mask and a blanket as a cape. So, then i thought, "Kumotman"! Kumot means blanket in filipino. As the kid in that commercial who doesn't eat his breakfast when he is in "Eagle-Man Mode", as a gamer, I don't particularly sleep when I'm in "gaming mode", thus, Kumotman where the blanket gives me my "no-sleeping" gaming powers for gaming weekends.

[ShutUpNicotine]

Back in highschool one day a friend of mine said something while we were taking a test and i thought she said Shut up Nicotine. So throughout the rest of school we would randomly say "Shut up Nicotine" to each other and since we gamed together it became my nickname and now it has always just stuck

[Dr_Orpington]

Several years ago I was into Minecraft (I'm not anymore) and my friend got me an account activation code. I couldn't decide on a username so I had him pick it for me. Later when I got a Ps3 I just used the same username, so I use it for everything now.

Dr = Just because

_ = _

Orpington = A breed of chicken, because I like chickens.

[iCrayan]

iCrayan

My previous username was iiCrea but I had already used it on my character in the game Jade Dynasty and I wanted to make a new character.

The class of the character I wanted to make was Rayan and thus I mixed Rayan and iiCrea and it became iCrayan

 

 

Sakai-kun

Just took a name from the anime Shakugan no Shana and added "-kun". Boring.

 

 

Muzakashi

("sad" story)

I've been bullied most of my life and therefore I prefer to be alone and not be around too many people..

I wanted a name change on the community IMVU and I wanted to make it something special.

So I did some googling after some japanese words meaning something like lazy, lonely, anti-social etc.

And Muzukashi (lonely) was the word that came up that looked the most interesting.. I just tweaked it alittle and Muzakashi was the result.

[ThorBuildingLegos]

Some people think that setting up computers is pretty straight forward. All you need are those 8 components. But PC builders follow a rutine up to a point when creativity and talent can be added to the mix. So I equate computer building with the fun and very versatile toy building blocks Legos.

[ThorBuildingLegos]

I came up with my name back when I played Jedi Knight 1 on the MSN gaming zone. I was 15 at the time and this one just kind of stuck. I have wanted to change it for the last 14 years but now all my gaming buddy’s know me as this and I have had it for half my life so iv accepted it as a part me no matter how embarrassing and lame it is. 

 

187 in the US is the police code for homicide. Yes I thought I was being a clever little kid back in the day. lol

 

I also started using AnotherBreath when I create second accounts for games I already own (for my other PC when friends come over)

Another Breath is a hardcore band from NY.

 

Embaressing afterthought: where I grew up we all had nicknames... mine was Gen-X, which was short for Generation-X (and it was kind of ironic in many ways - sort of calling a tall muscular guy Tiny)... because, at the time it was all the rage you know...

[Real_PhillBert]

My freshman year of college some of my friend called me "PhillBert," I dont know why. But then when I bought a PS3 I wanted PhillBert as my username but it was taken. So I went for Real_PhillBert. I have had it on several other forums as well.

[spwath]

My first name starts with SP middle name starts with WA last name starts with th.

spwath
