Explain Your Username

DLM_012

My nephew used to call me Sjappie, which is Dutch slang for a soft/funny version of "idiot". I started playing Runescape about 8 years ago, that's when i created Sjappie + PK (PK stands for Player Killing) = SjappiePK. It is my unique name which i use for everything Xbox Live, every pc game i can think of.

Mine is because of a game called NO MORE ROOM IN HELL , in steam , i was playing on a unlimited ammo server , other player was keep fraging the grenade , so i got that that name because one player's character voice keep saying "toss the grenade" , because my old name sucks ( Apple Jack ) , so i changed to TostTheGrenade , Tost is a miss spell of my first attempt of changing name in steam , i wanna go correct it , but nah , it is unique in this way , but alot of player in the server still think i'm miss spell toss

hak Meaning using something for something other than its purpose, 4 Cuz numbers are cool. And fun Because i enjoy it. Not too complicated really... I used to use bighat10 Have no idea where it came from, But i still use it a lot as a company name sorta. I don't have like a legit company, but I use the name  "Bighat Industries" A lot for different projects.

Than you got Unamedgamer1 My current one. Just a way to seperate myself from my other projects. Oh no! I shared my secret, now everybody knows who i am.

Is it bad that my dream setup only costs a few thousand not counting the obutto?

I've been playing D&D since I was probably 7 and my first character that I ever actually designed myself was a dwarf with a massive battle axe and a craving for blood named Jolga Dirona. I started using that name for pretty much everything but most websites don't allow spaces so I shortened it to j.dirona instead

Please use http://pcpartpicker.com/ for everybodones sake!

and quote me if you want me to see a reply please :)

When I found Minecraft around 4 years ago I didn't have enough money to buy it so a distant friend of mine traded his account for one of my pencil's. The account's name was "crazedwishbone" but when I tried to create that Ign in LoL it was too long so I just put "Crazedwish" to shorten it. Pretty amazing how a pencil was the cause for my username.

When I was little I made a minecraft account, Spongy141. Which minecraft got me into real gaming, and into computers (surprisingly). So I put 'Sponge' into all my usernames as tradition.

Well my name is mencido and in Spanish when you say it is sounds like menci2 since 2 in Spanish is dos but in slang you usually don't pronounce the s in dos and you would have to hear how my name is pronounced in Spanish to understand it a little better lol but my old gamer tag on Xbox was menci2loko (loko as in crazy which is actually spelled loco but I wanted to use a k) and eventually I just decided to switch out the 2 since most people wouldn't understand is and made it as MenciTooLoko (Menci too crazy)
I hope that makes any kind of since haha

Skippy is my nick name that my father gave me (I used to skip a lot when I was younger) and for the wazzup part I got from the movie "Scary Movie" when it was doing the "WAZZUUUPPP" scene. I've had this name since 2005. Even though I was ten at the time.

I was originally BindyBoondyBa.  I can't even remember when that came from.  I know alcohol was involved.

 

I shortened that to just Bindy a couple years ago just for ease.

 

I then found out that Bindy was Steve Irwin's daughter's name.  Not to be outdone, I changed it to SirBindy to cement my masculinity!

my current username is MrABAGaming which is also the name of my main YouTube channel. the "Mr" is just the usual abbreviation for "Mister" and ABA abbreviates the term "Anything But Average" which is what i strive to be in terms of my personality. the last part is not at all obvious and implies that i play games and record gaming videos. which i then heavily edit and upload.

Mine is just a nickname given to me by my uncle... he calls my mum Cactus Jack, people call me Edwardo, Edwardo + Cactus Jack = Wardojack... I guess.

Thank you.

So Airkave kinda has a chain to it.

  • So back when I was young a friend used the name "Riot4000", so me being the imaginative genius I am, I went with "Riot 4000" (with a space).
  • That lasted a while, but then when I got my first laptop I decided to use the name Arkrioty, keeping the "riot" from the previous name.
  • I used "Arkrioty" for a long time, but when I built my first PC I decided a new name was in order and I went with "Airkave". I wanted to keep the "Ark" but "Arkave" was taken so I placed an inconspicuous "i" in there.

crazeejimmy has kind of a funny story behind it. Jimmy is not actually my name. When I was in high school, someone, who is actually a distant cousin of mine whom i hadn't met at the time, asked me if my name was Jimmy. I told him no, and he told me that he was going to call me that from then on anyway. Well I ended up making that my gamertag back during Halo 2 days, and it has stuck ever since.
