hmm, well, I have this nick from when I was 11 I think. I started playing counter-strike and used this nick for the first time. (I saw a film and there was a guy called ciros, ciros sounds odd and I changed to sairos). well anyways, at the beginning it was SAIROS, then S@IROS, then S@!R0S, then $@!r0$, then just sairos, now it's SaIRoS or .sairos OMG :o

geepee

i have my nick from a game magazine :/ it stopped making mags in belgium but there's still a worldwide gamepro magazine

i added the 0 myself to have just a very little bit of my own in it xD

i have this name because i got internet, never thought of a name, and... i wanted my own name on msn too, so i rushed and took my fav magazine's name :/

well GAn is a nick that i have from when i was writeing rap songs(the good days)
actually the G is the initial from my family name and the An are from my own name(Andrei something like Andrew,Andreas etc)
in romanien its spelled like Gun and it came to me when i was thinking of a name for my hip hop "album" which was GAnderground(Underground) etc etc etc
and i sometimes use 187 in the back of the nick because 187 means death in LA for the ones that use it and dont know

So it is

CRO(atia)MAT(ej)


I thought of it when I started to play BF2 year ago,and thats what I thought of

I use Krp4n on some other forums which is just my Last name

its very interesting where mine came from. I used to go by the name Cloud, then I was like ahh well everyone probably uses the name after FF7:AC came out for movies ect. So I was like mhh I have to get a name that NO ONE has and that CAN BE REMEMBERED. SO I took out a sheet of paper and started writing weird funky japanese names. THats when I decided it should be a name that starts with a Z, that way when I register for something I just have to look at the last page of their members list lmao. So then I started thinking thats when Zennix came up to my head. But now I changed it to Zennixx cause I can basicalled use that name for AIM and HOTMAIL screennames

Megaera
01-28-2007, 06:39 PM
I had loads of names... the last one was: NuTTy^ > Happy Tree Friends :) I used this name everywhere.

After a while I wanted a new name....So I was surfing the web. Then I tried searching for (greek) gods/heroes.

Megaera (Greek: Μέγαιρα, "the jealous one") is one of the Erinyes in Greek Mythology. She is the cause of jealousy and envy, and causes people to commit crimes, especially marital infidelity. Like her sisters Alecto and Tisiphone, she was born of the blood of Uranus when Cronus castrated him.[/b]

The funny part is..I didn'tt know it was a woman :lol:

01-28-2007, 08:21 PM
I chose mine because i was looking for a new name for this new year and to use it for a few years. But then as i thought about it i was searching for pictures of Spiderman-3 and found a picture of venom. And then i thought "it sound like a good name". I capitalized the E because my name is Emanuel so i capitalized it because E is the first letter of my name.

Stoneface
01-30-2007, 06:44 PM

I got veryy good atmthe games i played and was well known in the gaming world under the name stoneface. So i kept the name since he started to stop playing due to work and such. I've been using the name for 5 years and plan to keep using it :)

my name came from a few things. My friend started runescape a long time ago. His name was tpizzle....
Then I started and I was bmizzle... We were then followed by my other friends: kcizzle, tsizzle and ldizzle :lol:

This is how I get my name:

Take the first letter of your first name: Ben
Take the first letter of your last name: Murray
then add "izzle"

On some other forums I added "510" because my birthday is May 10th....aka 5/10 ;)

not very interesting <_<


Very interesting,GAn`s and .sairos`s name origin are most interesting to me

Mine is very boring,but I wouldnt change it for nothing:

esoteric11
02-15-2007, 12:44 AM
esoteric - understood by or meant for only the select few who have special knowledge or interest

11 is (besides the day of my b day may 11 ) just a pro number that i use for all forums or game tags some examples:
red anthem11
massacre11
red taliban11
purple emperor11 i forget wat i was thinking for that one

i was gonna go for mrizzle11 once but then realized im not a noob like my friends

PrncssVOID
02-16-2007, 02:10 AM
Mine is pretty boring too. Nothing fun like some of your guys'

Princess is simply what my friend calls me because I grew up a spoiled brat.

And Void is what some of the randy guys at work used on me when I shut them all down. Lol. I think it is talking about like voiding a check or possible the void of my heart. I dunno but I picked it up.

I've kind of adopted my friend's name too, Omble. That comes from a kid's show where a character named Tommy Tibble had a backpack but some of letters fell off, leaving OM BLE

Konix
07-05-2007, 03:26 PM
Konix was a name suggested by an old MMORPG I used to play, 'Tibia'. While signging up for the game, I couldn't think of anything to suit me so I chose name suggester and this name came up :P. Also, Konix was apparently going to become a game console but it was never released xD ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konix_Multisystem )

Stillwater
07-08-2007, 02:46 AM
Stillwater

Pretty much speaks for itself. Still and water. Water in no motion. This is the name that alot of people use to refer to me in real life. It all started when me and some friends were simply tired of our dumb names and decided to give ourselfs like Indian type of names you know? Such as Sitting Bull or Crazy Horse, but we weren't gonna take any already taken name. Not too long before that, I was reading a little kid's book called "Zen Shorts", which is pretty cool. It's about a Panda named Stillwater who teaches good moral lessons on peace basically. And that's where I got the name from. If you guys ever find that book, you should read it. It's not long but the things said are breath-taking.

Some of my friends got stuck with some funny names, but we speak of it in on offense. A friend of mine sometimes laughs ridiculously lol, and has the a fat pig nose so we called him Squealing Pig =P.

faust.
07-08-2007, 05:03 AM
to be cliched...

a song...

by glassjaw, called faust

i liked the dot on the end, seeing as i did the .NAME thing like 2 years ago and now it's overdone...

the song was a rare release and i really love it... speaks lots about some of my relationships with some lameass ex's...

FUCK, CLICHE!

Niteforce
07-08-2007, 07:22 AM
NITEFORCE actually came from an idea back in the early 80's when the heavy metal band that I had were trying to come up with a name. I came up with Nite when sitting near a dock (boat) with the heavy glow coming off the water. The word Force was a reality when we decided to put together something that meant power. Hence the name Niteforce came from that. Yes, I am an 80's rocker with a bit of USMC in me. After I let my hair grow back and got hooked up with a bud of mine it was a trying time during those days. Later on after I initally got divorced from my first wife I went back to music after a period of time. That is where I met my 2nd wife whom I am still married to after 15 years. I actually gave up a recording contract for my now wife and my 1st son.. I kept the name Niteforce after all these years to keep the name active and withstanding no matter what I do. My buds from across still recognize the name as it being me whether I am "gaming" or otherwise. I can even say the the name went as far as a company who makes rifle scopes to copy the name. But I am the originator of the name none the less........ (too bad I didn't get rich off of it either in Music or in the name itself)


That is just me and the history of the name!

bbob
07-17-2007, 06:51 PM
Got mine playing BF1942 on TS with a good friend of mine, and when I managed to crash my spitfire into two of the 5 palms on El Alamein, he decided to publicly make fun of me and do the classic: "Haha! You n00b!" in the chat..

Unfortunately for him, after he pressed K, a BF109 tailed his B17, and he got busy, ending up typing: "Hahas yuo bb0b1"


It just kinda stuck..

@faust. your name means "fist" in german, do you have a not-so-secret fetish? :P

Dream'O, hmm that's not so hard..
I'm kind of a dreamer though, I'm sleeping in class, dreaming about everything I wanna do (no not getting laid because I don't have time for that).

Also, Dr Emo, is ya well, I dunno, I guess Alki called me Dremo infact of Dreamo and so is that name born.

Boring I know but well ya.

Also, I got WHOCARES. But that's just because I'm different and I don't give a fuck about others opinions in life or what they think of me. I always say when someone is like.. Why are you wearing that ugly shirt..? WHOCARES.
