Hi! where did you get the idea for your names?Follow

hi where did u all get the idea for your names? i got mine
"trunksbrando" because when i first got a computer i had to think of a name and my mom suggested Trunks from the cartoon show DBZ since Trunks is my favorite character and im sure you all can guess i got brando because my name is Brandon! wolla! Trunksbrando =)

now you guys?

Twiztid = name of a rap group that runs beneath the streets

Samurai = Man are they cool

TwiztidSamurai = Just a name I've been using as kind of an online alias.

Mine is a mispelling of the first part of the name of the first single sided 3 dimensional shape discovered and used as a symble for infinity. I have been using variations on that theme ever since I started playing around online 20 years ago. I was 10, hence the mispelling. It stuck.

Belhade is a name I made up years ago when I wrote fiction in school (usually James Belhade). I kept using it and have adopted it as my internet persona. Later on I found out that Belhade is in fact a town in western France. The EQ character's surname, Baulien, was also made-up as foreign-sounding.

Debalic is another name I made up when playing Everquest. I was creating a high-elf cleric and wanted a noble elvish-sounding name; Hit the random name generator a few times, changed some of the suggestions around and came up with Debalic. The character's surname, Vanyamar, is kind of a mix of Tolkien names from The Silmarillion - Vanya(r), being one of the hosts of Elves, and Vinyamar, Turgon's fortress in northern Beleriand on the sea.

My necromancer, Dukeroger, is named after Duke Roger Conte, an evil character in a fantasy series who comes back from the dead. Hence the necromancer, although he himself wasn't the one who raises the dead but was raised himself.

I like really short names for my toons so people can type them.

As I looked at my kilt wearing Celtic looking barb...
My last name in the game is McKittle (one of these days I will petition to cap the K which didn't work). Kittle is Scottish for a bit confused and muddled which certainly seemed to fit me, since I was always lost before maps and was by myself in a dungeon somewhere, because I misplaced my group.

The sound I hear everynight as the cat plays with the little springy doorstops... plick...plick...plick....boing.

Too funny! Our cat does that too!

Mikeinsb = Mike in Santa Barbara

Sooooo original!

LOL! My parents house had those, and I used to play with them too, pull em back hard and they go BOOOIOIOIOINNNGGGGfwapfwapfwapfwapfwappapapapapappp against the floor.

Ok, so I was a weird kid.

back when i was playing online in my quake 2 days i was somewhere around the age of 7-9ish. i had gone through a bunch of blatantly unoriginal nick names (stuff like "killer" "punisher" "destroyer" "wolf" blah blah) and i thought, "hey i need something original, something unusual, something that will make people say 'what the f'uck' when i frag them". so, i thought for ahwhile and thought "hey, hippos are kind of an unusual animal to see running around rocket jumping and machine gunning down people. but plain hippo is just too damn dull. i bet a hippo that was gunning people down would have to be pretty angry... hey, ill be an angry hippo" and thus, Angry Hippo was born.

after quake 2 i continued using the name for all other first person shooters. the first message boards i visited were related to first person shooters (i think message boards for the quake 2 mod "gloom" were the first i ever posted on). seeing as it was a FPS board, i used my FPS allias. Flash forward about 5-6 years. Angry Hippo has been in use ever since is creation, and im now playing everquest. as i register for these boards it just seemed natural to be named Angry Hippo.

i got my from the random server generated names

I was originally Pusbag, a shaman, who, of course, uses totems in his voodooery and witch doctory. Hence, when Pusbag retired, Totem became his progeny.

Totem

Except for me. I sold you the throne, remember?
