Re: Where did you get that username?

When I found this place, I originally wanted to use the name Fox McCloud, but that was taken, so I used the next best thing.

Re: Where did you get that username?

My original username, Rhea, is short for my RL English name. Liah is short for my RL Samoan name.

Re: Where did you get that username?

Khao is a super insanely long time evolution of my first name, and people actually call me that in real life, it's probably dethroning my first name as my real name, because of that,I use it everywhere since a very long time, the name is so full of awesomeness that even a mediocre rapper (I believe) stole it! Damn him!

Re: Where did you get that username?

I usually go by "Irgendein Typ", which is "Some Guy" in German. "Some Guy" of course being what I used before having a friend translate it. Most people would call me "Irgy" for short, so I just went with that when I registered.

Re: Where did you get that username?

I made up this word. It is a title given to any master of something. The continuation would be Granras, which is also made up word. It is the continuation in other things I use, but for the forums I just put Sye. So basically sye means Master and Granras was meant to mean highest frequency.

I got mine from here: (note, it's the first video and if you ain't in america you can't watch it so BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW)

Adult Swim : 10 Most Ununderstandable Moments - Page 1

at 1:04 where the green mouse says "his name is night moves", I honestly thought he said "Nightmoose". I fell in love with that little "Nightmoose" pet of his and decided to name myself that :3

My more regular username, Sailboat, actually derived from ZU itself. Way back when, I named myself Noob Saibot, after the coolest Mortal Kombat character. People kept misreading it as "Noob Sailboat," so I dropped the first part and just became Sailboat.

I should change back to that.

Funny, the image for Old Kentucky Shark was taken from the shark from 12 Oz. Mouse.

We both have 12 Oz. Mouse usernames.

Did you know that "Panique" is "panic" in French?
Noooo not so super creative ;P


Umm, like I said in all previous threads, I first saw Void Phantom and a waepon's name in Baten Kaitos, back in 2007. I liked it.

I figured it might be.

Also my SUPAH CREATIVE was actually sarcastic.

Other usernames I use elsewhere when Panique is taken are slightly more creative, but not really. I like Panique the best though, since half of my friends I see in real life call me Pani as a nickname.

Fun story: when I was in college last year, a large amount of friends I met that year didn't realise my real name wasn't Pani for a few weeks except this one guy and it took him about half a year to figure it out.

brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrokenjoker.
No where, really.

I was just trying to be creative and think up two words that were random but sounded good together, and I got this. It's so emo.

Re: Where did you get that username?

Original name: loz5686. Figured that was something really simple to remember: loz for the series, and 5686 is my birthday.

andi called me Lozzie one day and it stuck. Switched it as soon as I could.

I changed it to James for a while, as that is my real name. Before my daughter was born, felt that a change was needed back to the good old days.

That is all.

My username is self-explanatory. Armos are recurring enemies in the Zelda Universe. I’m surprised it hasn’t been taken.

Re: Where did you get that username?

My usual usernames are SheikahTao, LoneWolfTao or ShadowTao.

But lately I've been using ZoraTao, kind of replacing SheikahTao after I started to get bored with it. The Book of Tao is a religious book about a Chinese philosophy based on harmony and the yin-yang. (It's also my Internet name pseudonym)

Anyway, my name is a name I thought up when I was 16 to play Starcraft online. I really liked angels and mythology in general and Azrael is just a cool name (it's the name of the angel of death in the Abrahamic religions). However that was taken, so to make my name a tad more original I added Black to the end of it, 'cause black is all cool and evil.

It's been my online moniker ever since. I've been tossing up changing my user name to Saúl recently though. Maybe even Saúlito which is my family's nickname for me and Farore it seems.

Re: Where did you get that username?

Simply put, I created my current username because I needed something unique for my Xbox Live gamertag. At some point, I decided that the accented e looked better, and the resulting change in pronunciation was a welcome one.

As for my previous username (The Great Panda), it came about after watching one of the first episodes of Avatar that featured a giant panda spirit. As it was lumbering away, I randomly blurted the phrase "The Great Panda is done here," and it kind of stuck.

I recall wanting to change it to Panda the Great once, but I refrained from doing so because it sounded arrogant.
