EXPLAIN Yo' USERNAME

My username is the word used for "boy" or "guy" etc in the teenage "Nadsat" slang in the book/film A Clockwork Orange which I just finished reading.

Kurai= Dark
Chi= Blood

Kurai Chi = Dark Blood

(That's all Japanese)

I normally dislike numbers in my name. But when I was trying to come up with a username for a different forum I just typed in 'Unit7'

From then I have grown fond of it. I have used it in some of my short stories and even came up with a loose idea of how the name came about. Though when I become a published author(a guy can dream...) I think I am going to have it pop up as a cameo in my stories. Unless the story is about the character who uses the hanlde Unit7.

But yeah, the name came out of complete random typing and I just fell in love with it

First part is first part of my nickname, second part is the second part of my real name

Jimbob
James

Put together, we get Jimes!!

Cool thread. [even if it's supposedly been made a lot already]

I was like 12 years old on my first forum and had some obsession with cheese. But that was taken, so I made it cheeze instead. Now almost everyone on the internet calls me that. It's stuck.

Because of the Pocket Cucco in the trade quest in OoT :3

I thought it just sounded cute xp And well you know, the cuccos are awesome.

Because Red is the greatest Pokemon trainer ever.

Oh you can also blame Holly and Cody for it.

My old name, PyroShadow, comes from my Xbox Live gamertag, PyroShadow3. I tend to base what I can off of it, for simplicity's state. So if Pyro is taken, I just go with PyroShadow.



LAWDS AM I FULL OF ******RY, RIGHT

"erinys" is the singular for "erinyes." In Greek and Roman mythology, the Erinyes (or Furies in Roman mythology) are underworld deities of vengeance and the anger of the dead. Their heads are wreathed with serpents and their eyes drip with blood.

so yeah, Greek mythology and all that.

My ego deserved no less than a heroic name.

But it's not just that! I fight evil! I can hear that high-pitched sound that many can't!

Came up with it way back in the day when I first got my Xbox. The gamertag I wanted to use was Maze but it was taken, so I just added another word in front of it, which was Viral. Thus, Viral Maze was born, and I used it ever since. I don't know why I chose Viral, I could have just as easily have been table maze, or bottle maze >_>

Lets see.
I just love the name HellsAngel because there is a biker group named HellsAngel.
And I didn't even heard of the name until my mom recorded some Bio on the history channel about them.
But I even made my own character too. But otherwise I just love the name.

Well its a good thing you didn't.

Because Viral Maze sounds awesome and Table or even Bottle Maze just sounds stupid

My friend thought it would be funny to mix my name with buttocks. It stuck, as Zeldace (Vector) will be quick to point out on many occasions.

I've been using my username for YEARS I wanted to change it to "the great 32" but my friend wont let me...

EDIT:
she knows who she is and she may post below me

EDIT2:
ha see I told you she would!

Ever read The Silmarillion?

It's named after this, explanation over.
