Title: How Did You Pick Your Name?


Ace - May 7, 2005 03:46 AM (GMT)
I'd like to know how everyone picked their username here at this forum. We have some interesting ones...so my curiousity is sparked.

I suppose I'll start:

I chose Ace because of my initials...which happen to spell out A.C.E.

CoffeeFreak4Life - May 7, 2005 04:53 AM (GMT)
Well the origonal reason i chose it was because i was addicted to coffee . As for why i chose it for this site its because Its what evreyone knows me by at other BBS forums.

Sith_Master - May 7, 2005 12:37 PM (GMT)
i chose Sith_Master cause i went on RuneScape and there was Sith_Master and i thought it was a k00l name. on other forums like on thybag forum, i am Dark_Hunters there cause i went on Jedi Academy Multiplayer and Dark_Hunters was there so i copyied off that.... :o

*Gets award for most boring*

Mine is my name :rolleyes: When signing up for good ol' Sims 2 Talk I couldn't think of anything at the top of my head to use as a username so I panicked and used my name. It has stuck with me so people will be able to recognize me.

Ace - May 8, 2005 03:36 AM (GMT)
You used "your" name? You mean your first name is Rein? :blink: If it is, that's cool, but I didn't think that was your name...or am I reading that post wrong?

Yep her name is Rein Spark.

Me? I don't remember...

Nick402 - May 8, 2005 05:31 PM (GMT)
It's my name and birthday.

Yep her name is Rein Spark.

Yep Shadow is right....I thought you knew that Ace :lol:

Ace - May 12, 2005 02:43 AM (GMT)
No, I had no clue!

Rein Spark is a very cool name. My name is "original" you could say, but definitely not as cool as "Rein".

Twiggs - May 21, 2005 10:39 PM (GMT)
I'm 5'11" and 110-115 pounds, depending on what and when I ate. I was dubbed Twiggy in high school and I've been using Twiggs, because it sounds more masculine considering the supermodel (Twiggy), and I plan on using that and alternatives for the rest of my existence.

10-Neon - June 3, 2005 10:50 PM (GMT)
I have a friend who created a battle.net screen name as Sodium70mg (from the nutrition facts on a Mt. Dew Can) I copied him with another element, 10-Neon. The actual element, Neon, though, goes back to when I was in 6th grade, and I did I project on Neon. It was actually while I was putting it together that my half-sister told me she was pregnant. So it sort of goes to mark my nephew, as well.

BucephalusStud - June 14, 2005 01:56 PM (GMT)
When I first began my adventures through forumming communities, my first name was mighty falcon, which was fitting because I'd like to become a falconer someday. But then I changed because the first few forums I went to were full of ****heads so I went to Bucephalus to avoid their ranting and quit the forums. I gave others thought but I arrived at Bucephalus because it was Alexander the Great who owned a stallion named Bucephalus and I thought it would be cool.

I soon went to get a new email account and typed "bucephalus@hotmail.com) but it was taken so I went with "bucephalusstud@hotmail.com" (which is my current email) and thats the name that has stuck with me.

froglaet - July 25, 2005 08:47 AM (GMT)
Yeah I've had Froglaet for almost everything, because I have a treefrog, it was orginally Froglet but sometimes it was taken in forums, and then I found this "æ" symbol which I liked and put it in to make Froglæt, which wouldnt work so I ended up with Froglaet.

Hope you enjoyed my life story, :D.

Rein_Spark - July 25, 2005 03:07 PM (GMT)
It really is interesting to hear how everyone picks their usernames, you all got some neat stories and names. I need to come up with something like that!

tdlob - August 23, 2005 07:55 PM (GMT)

Boldt

Andreana - September 18, 2005 01:49 PM (GMT)

tdlob - September 18, 2005 03:15 PM (GMT)

Andreana - October 11, 2005 03:06 AM (GMT)

Immy - October 11, 2005 05:28 AM (GMT)
Rein uses her name too.

Andreana - October 12, 2005 11:10 PM (GMT)

TacoBob - December 22, 2005 03:13 AM (GMT)
How I picked mine is odd. Really odd. I was on the Animal Crossing Ahead Forums (One that I stopped going to. Some of the staff wasn't too kind.) and I was thinking of a new name. I saw I had a Taco stain on my shirt, and we recently saw a cat named "Bob".
So yeah.

Immy - December 22, 2005 08:48 AM (GMT)
I've always wondered that TB! Good to finally know.

Well, yeah. That too. Why else would thier be a Taco stain on my shirt? :lol:

Ace - December 23, 2005 07:39 PM (GMT)
A friend eating a burrito ran into you? :lol:

That one was quite logical.
But alas, I am the only one amongst my friends and I who likes Tacos. Sad, isn't it?

Yes it is! I love tacos...they're one of my favorite foods...

...but that's all for a different discussion. :P

I've always wondered how Xero got his name... O!

Ace - December 24, 2005 07:39 PM (GMT)
Yeah...perhaps cause it sounds sorta cool...except you'd HAVE to have a X instead of a Z...it makes it look...better? I dunno.

TacoBob - December 24, 2005 07:42 PM (GMT)
I have no idea. We can ask him when he joins.

sporelooksgreat15 - March 18, 2006 06:38 PM (GMT)
i got my name by speaking my opinion

Alf XD - April 13, 2006 10:24 AM (GMT)
*dun dun dun* My initials + one of my current favourite smileys, that's it. XD

Immy - April 14, 2006 12:24 AM (GMT)
I love yours Alf! XD

SporeFox - April 17, 2006 09:11 PM (GMT)
hmm...mine's more boring than Reins: i'm addicted to foxes, and i'm addicted to spore :P

usually my username's Sanban, but about a week ago, i found out it meant calculation board (A.K.A. the calculater <_< ) in Japanese XD

Immy - April 18, 2006 07:30 PM (GMT)
My new one is something I made up, a nickname for Imoen.

BoBopotato - April 19, 2006 09:54 PM (GMT)
There is no logical explanation for the name BoBopotato but the situation from which it sprang from might have something to do with it, a quake 1 LAN party and a manic episode (otherwise more jumping, dying and screaming than you could ever imagine) so that might explain the random nature of the name but this only explains the origin not the name itself...... which will most likely remain a mystery. :ph43r:

Ever since then I have always used the name in every game I play (other than MMORPGs that is) mostly HALO and other 1st person shooters though.

I needed a new nickname so I took the title of the game, how I feel about it, and when I graduate. :)
