Why'd you pick "that" name?

[LouiDashcam]

my original name was "cheesehead272" IDK why I had that so I decided after months of having like that, I just changed it to my nickname everyone calls me with my favorite number "Loui27" ... before i changed it to Loui27 it was "Dashcam337". I also have a friend who's username is "A Simple Cheese Burger w/ fries" @A Simple Cheeseburger w/ Fries

[sko0923]

My username in the forum is just short of my real name, with only 4 letters of my last name in.

 

In game though, first 3 letters of my last name are "Sko" (from Skorynin), and a lot of my friends have called me that for a while. I was born on September 23rd (09/23) which is where the numbers came from. My name is sko0923

[#null]

Just for fun, I wanna know what will happen if I use my Email address to be a name.

[MrNoseyBonk]

Username is based off the kids Television character Mr Noseybonk from the jigsaw (1980's) 

[Killua // Ireland ^_^]

Killua is my favorite character from my favorite show   Killua is the one in profile pic/gif   My name used to be DavidOC93 which is my first name, 2nd name initials and year I was born, my name on steam/in game used to be APL | DavidOC93 | Killua but I decided I didn't really want DavidOC93 in my name anymore and changed it to APL | Killua | Ireland Ireland cause I'm from Ireland and APL cause I'm in APL Decided to keep DavidOC93 as the 2nd part of my name here on the forums tho

[A Simple Cheeseburger]

My user name originated about 4 years ago, when I was on a Gmod server and saw that someone had the name of 'A ham sandwich'. At the time I thought that was the funniest name ever so I named myself A Simple Cheeseburger.

it wasnt untill mid 2014 when a friend and I were on another server messing about with our names, I eventually came up with A Simple Cheeseburger w/ Fries and its stuck ever since

[Guest]

[Guest]

Mine comes from the iconic character from Mortal Kombat.  Been a huge fan of that game since i was a teenager....now being 35 it still presses the right buttons whenever i play it. I'll forever be a Mortal Kombat/Scorpion fan.

[Guest]

Nice! Haven't played that game for years tbf lol

[Guest]

^The difference between the original Mortal Kombat and Mortal Kombat X is insane

[Guest]

In all fairness, I haven't looked at that game sinse I was a kid so I wouldn't know from then to now lol

[LordBenji]

I had a few nicknames for different games and platforms. Some of them includes Kr4zyB3n, Benjinathor, and the one I use most commonly LordBenji.

The term "crazy" was just for fun, because I'm different and weird. Benjinathor was just something I made for fun. LordBenji is the one I'm most likely to stick with from now on. Why Lord? I like medieval and fantasy stuff, so I just decided to take that. (No I'm not a real lord lol )

 

EDIT: Oh and I do believe this thread would fit better in Off Topic.

[McDodge34 [FR QC]]

Mine is pretty unique I'll say, My first username online was Dodge34, but no one could even know why I choose that name, I have a passion for 1 car, and its the Dodge Sedan 1934, don't ask me why or anything about this car, I don't know anything about it beside the look of it, I just love the look of it, I know I should dig up more info on it but I never did, Then in 2012, I discovered a game called Minecraft, I wanted my username to reflect my love for this game so I added MC in front of Dodge34, I had a few people that where thinking I was a DJ or something, nope, that's not for that. If I'm not on the road in ETS2 or ATS, I'm more than likely playing Minecraft.

[Guest]

lol, I'd be thinking MC as DJ too if you hadn't have said that.. nice car though!

I love german language D: that's all D: 

[Fulgura]

I always liked the word 'Thunder' -and actual thunder-lightning too-, so I choose it for my nickname in the old times. Then there was a concept car named Fulgura, from a Moroccan supersports car company named Laraki at 2002, if I remember correctly. Car was looking meh, but it was built on Lamborghini Diablo, one of my favourite cars, and liked its name for no reason. Did a little research about the name, and found out that its meaning is Thunder-Lightning in Latin language. Picked it over the old one, stuck with me for all these years.

[Guest]

@The Scottish Lad Came up with it. xD

[xOceanSpirit]

When I made my name, I was fascinated about the ocean, so I made my name "Ocean", but it was too simple, so I thought well...I walk quiet, I breathe quiet and I can easily sneak up on people, my mother said I'm like a ghost, so I tried OceanGhost, but that didn't sound right, so I tried OceanSpirit, sounds better. But it needs something to compliment it, so I just added an x at the start. 

 

This was in...2009 and I've stuck with it ever since. If you see xOceanSpirit somewhere else

[Hpro1]

My friends called me H pro when I was younger, and it has been my gamer tag since  The 1 came because H_pro wasn't available on PSN

[Miles!]

I usually have a different name for every community, usually a nickname. There's no solid online name for me it's all dynamic but here and Steam it's Miles because I like it  

[xBestBBx]

If you want me to be truthful, I chose it because it's what I say in real life, to people I dislike.

[HeyI'mAmethyst]

I lived in Leeds at the time I made my name, but now I've recently moved to Harrogate so I'm considering adjusting my name accordingly. Dunno tho
