What's behind your name?

[merkin]

Mine is a Pearl Jam single which consists of two songs: I got ID and Long Road. It's actually called merkinball, but I just say merkin.

[SonyFan]

Uncreativity. ;)

[ddaryl]

My name is Daryl, add a 2nd D and I usually find my name isn't taken at most forums, emails, or other sign ups. Its my thing

[TaloFinn]

Talo Finn was a non-player character in one of the RPGs I ran a few years ago. Of course, a friend of my -really- hated the character by the end of the game. Poor guy thought the NPC would not get slightly annoyed when a player tried to kill him for no reason. Believe that game ended with good ol' Talo Finn betraying the player or something. Of course, the NPC was originally meant to help him in defense of someone else, but the player always felt the need to assault random NPCs.

For here though, it just happened to be a name that seemed to fit with the forum topic.

[Samwise]

I love J.R.R. Tolkien and Samwise is the name of a character from The Lord of the Rings. Excellent trilogy, BTW! :)

I was inspired by Frodo - because I was thinking about his username right before signing up, so I wanted to use a Tolkien name too. :D

[Hawke]

I would've used Lei Wulong here too as my name, but I thought it was too unoriginal for such a high calibre place. So I took the name of my R-Type Delta ace pilot, Hawke :)

[Living-In-Clip]

Ani Difranco--Double live cd.
Loved the sound of it. Couldn't think of anything else at the moment. Didn't plan on posting much (ha!), so I registered it.

[SmallLady]

Small Lady is a character in a manga called Sailor Moon. She is a little girl who is also the princess of the moon, and very kawaii too. I relate to her, cause she likes all things cute but can be tough if need be.

[AlteredBeast]

Wanna hear a funny story? OK, it's not really funny. but dodolododolo (scooby doo)...

I registered in here with the name NeoSega about a week before I did with this on. The story behind NeoSega is, is I love the movie the matrix, I also happen to love Sega, mix it in a nice pasta and Wa La! NeoSega!

So after I registered under NeoSega at my friend's house on his computer, I went home and started to make a post (on the old UBB server :)) Put in NeoSega as my username and then *!* couldnt remember the password. Crap. I reregistered, but couldn't think of anything good. I thought and thought, then *!* I made it be the first game I ever bought by myself, Altered Beast for SMS. make it into an easy to swallow 1 word name and Wa La! AlteredBeast.

Also, AlteredBeats is my DJ name for when I spin Jungle at parties. Man! That name is the best! hehehehe :D*










* Also, I have another name for when I spin Booty House, BodyTwitch :) After I get done with my set, I get on top of the table and shake furiously :) everyone thinks I am on X, but nope!

Eric Jacob

[Sublimesjg]

well i am a very laid - back kind of person so it fits that way - but mostly becuase i like the musci group Sublime and sjg is my intials and i have been using the name on aol for years now

[soundifound]

[Bobs_Hardware]

im a porn star, i go by two names

ICQ = Bobs_Hardware

AIM = Buck Headly

[IronFist]

What's behind your name?
I think that it is just the black background behind my name; unless, of course, the name took the place of the background, then there really is no more background. Which bring up an interesting question: Is my name on top of the background, or did it actually replace the background? Think about it.

BTW, I'm sure you all know where I got my name from. ;)

[Darth Joyda]

I think you've already quessed it ( if not before, then at least from my pic ).

I was a SW fan; and I love the original trilogy still, but I'm not a serious fan anymore. And Yoda was my fav. character.

So I thought would I sign as Dart Fader, Dart-Maul or Joyda, and I took the last one because it's simple but kewl.

I'm da Joyda, man!

[nO-One]

Joyda dude get into Star Trek it's a heck of a lot better than SW ;)

Well, I used to love Star Trek the next generation -serie, wich is the BEST entertainment Star Trek can offer. Oh and the best Star Trek movie is The First contact.

Mr. Spock wouldn't be a bad name, but some ST series have ruined the name of Star Trek ( no offence but.. )

Well, that horrible Deep Space Nine serie and Voyager as well... they S-U-C-K ( sorry if you're fan of them... )

But I do remember waiting every monday night to see the newest episode of Star Trek the Next Generation ( I was on 3rd grade I think back then )

But these timeless battles ( of nerdies ) like "SW vs. ST" is, I won't participate. Star Trek has its moments, but so does SW.

[a communal name]

a pot of gold and three little men in green suits doing an odd, yet strangly hypnotic jig

[Snow Fox]

I love J.R.R. Tolkien and Samwise is the name of a character from The Lord of the Rings. Excellent trilogy, BTW!

Thats my favourite book, I use to use the name Strider alot but found others using it so I changed it to Aragorn, but then changed to Snow Fox, as I use to be called it because of my love for Snow.

[kirath]

I have had this name since WingCommander 1. I beat the game and then took the name.

Remeber the Kilrathy... Well modify it a little bit, Kirath.

I have been using this name since then. Well over 10 years now. But sometimes I find someone with my name. I would like to blow up their compter but I can't. Sometimes the litte kids think its cool and take it. Well I hunt them down, and well thats another story.

peace

Quess it, I did ;)

Kirath sounds Kilrath, yes?

And so right I was. Good at quessing I quess I am.

[Rushs2k]

I own a delivery service called Rush and I drive a Honda S2000, hence Rushs2k :)

[CygnusXI]

My name is taken from a Rush song by the same name.
Also it is a real name of a black hole. And also my e-mail.

cygnus@blackhole.com

It's all to eerie:)

(PS don't send me no crap like N genner did)

[CPLesane]

Lesane Parish Crooks a.k.a Tupac Amaru Shakur

[Dolbytone]

I agree with you on DS9, it reeks, but if you give it a chance you'll find that Voyager is quite good. I like it as much as the Next Generation.

On my username, well it should be quite evident. I wanted instant recognition with as little effort as possible and without having to make enemies. While some people might not recognize obscure game titles or characters, most everyone has heard of Dolby Labs, so considering I spend a lot of time working with Dolby equipment on the job, and audio has been an interest of mine since I was in grade school, that's what I went with.

[nO-One]

I love all the Star Trek series mainly suz I've been a fan for about 8 years now.If you give any series a chance you'll find out it is actually very good.

[Falgarok]

My name?

Well, i'm a RPG's narrator( or a DM if you like AD&D) and i've invented in the past a saga called Falgarok. It talks about how easy the people could get lost in the ambition and the search of power and forgot the real reasons to enjoy life.
Sometimes the videogame's world could be like this, with people who enjoys numbers instead of entertainment.

That's the reason cos a choose this name( and i think that it sounds good too :) ).

[Ratlad]

Well, back in high school my nickname was 'rat'. Once I started posting at message boards I figured it'd be easy to remember so I began using Ratboy. I used it at quite a few boards but when I got here it was already taken. Ratlad was what ddaryl used to call me at some of the other boards so I used it instead. Not very mysterious, eh?

[w1ngman]

Well there are two things (okay, my wife makes the 3rd thing) that I enjoy in my life. 1st, my PS2 (damn, my wife's looking over my shoulder...okay, my wife is the number 1 thing I enjoy in my life). We'll say my wife and my PS2 are a strong tie...how 'bout that hunny?...<smack>...<"ouch...that's gonna leave a mark!">. Anyway, the other thing that gives me joy is my fully restored 1982 GL1100 Honda Goldwing Interstate (that's a big-a$$ motorcycle for those that don't know or care). My personal plate for this bike is WNGMAN. That's WINGMAN (as best as it will fit for M/C plates in Virginia). Given that usernames typically are taken for "Wingman" given those gamers that like flight sims, etc., I've gone to replacing the "I" in wingman with a "1" and...presto, chango, you have w1ngman.

- w1ngman

[Luke]

I picked my name cause my real name is luke and im a huge bulls fan and about 4 years ago i heard dennis rodman call somebody "biggins" in a interview and it just stuck with me.

[Peltopukki]

I use 2 names Ember is my demo-scene name..
and when i started to visit forums and to play games in net. i had to create new one and i wanted it to have possibility for little changes...
so i chose Peltopukki.
first word "pelto" means field, and it can be nicely changed to city, town, mountain, joulu or whatever.
pukki is a ram. "the animal"



"oh. and ram also means ****er..So it fits quite nicely with some of the variations. :)

[justagirl]

Cause i'm just a girl that was looking for info about PS2.
I have a PS1 but I never play except this weekend my boyfriend bought me Frogger. Justagirl is also my fav song from No Doubt.

I've been dying to ask you this: Is "Farewell to Kings" your fav? And, what is your preference: Cygnus X-1, or Cygnus X-1 Book 2, though by no means should it be a competition. Just curious.

[live]

[Soul Reaver]
