Where our Usernames come from...

[Marzhin]

I think we should let people explain their names by themselves...

[ThunderTitan]

They can explain Why they chose the name...

[igoraki]

my real name is igor and and one of my nicknames is aki,one i like the most,so when i first started using mirc ~10 years ago i wanted to use it for my nick there,unfortunately in most cases it was already used by other ppl and when i sometimes menage to get it,alot of ppl from scandinavian countries have try to talk with me in languages i couldnt understand,so i finally merged my name with my nickname and become igoraki and now am using it in all forums and other places am visiting

[vhilhu]

everyone i know calls me Villu and im a fan of Cthulhu mythos(but only the original lovecraftian ones) so i put them together to Vhilhu.

[Zombie_Inc]

It's a song by In Flames. It was on when I was signing up for some other forum, so I picked it. Ever since, instead of picking a nickname, I just put this one in.

[Sir William S Titan]

Just playing a game one day, and this is the name I came up with. Titan because I really like the titans from H3. William because it's the first name in my name combination that sounded nice. And S for the same reason as william. I've yet to come up with something that the S stands for, though. But if I was to create a new profile, I wouldn't choose this name. I'd chose one of my coolest NWN characters, Alkar Rahn.

[Mytical]

The way I came up with my name is in the Random Thoughts thread. However, some of the names I come up with have been through dreams. I seem to dream a lot, and in most of my dreams I am somebody else, and usually in a 'fantasy' setting like middle earth ect. Usually the name is in the dream too. Never quite figured this out, and don't really care to .

[Lady Farquad]

I enjoyed playing Fiona since the beginning of the series, and after Shrek, I thought about her as Mrs. Farquad; after all, they were just a kiss away from "lived happily ever after" right before the dragon ate Lord Farquad ... so I must now reign in his place.

[gravyluvr]

This one's going with me to the grave.

[Pol]

I'm also dreaming a lot That's sign of healthy mind, well, when you haven't nightmares. I have no dreams when I'm tired though.... - which's the best option.

I would vote for Corrriba!
(Sort of sticky name, sure, but mine is too )

[Mytical]

Maybe I should have said I remember my dreams a lot. Everybody dreams every night, sometimes 2-3 dreams or more. Actually remembering the dreams is another thing altogether. Most people remember maybe 1 dream every 2-3 days, some not even that much. Me I seem to remember at least 1 dream a night, and sometimes 2. Very vividly also. Sometimes I am so wrapped up in a dream, I don't even know it's a dream until I am woken up.

[vhilhu]

damn i havent dreamed for about 10 years now, sleeping is so boring boring boring black screen. and before that i only saw dreams of getting lost in some strange creepy place(more of a nightmare really).

[Corribus]

Oh just tell m3!?!?!?

Nah, this is too much fun!

[Gaidal Cain]

Mine is a minor character in a book, and I took it for a nickname when I first joined up at the Quill. I use an anagram of it over at the Ubi boards (which I don't visit very much now), since it was already taken there and I had made the anagram earlier for another reason...

And how can you be sure that its really not your real life and this is just a dream?

She did say a few times that she works nights.Slipping a bit there,arent you?

Whenever i start asking myself "is this real or a dream" then i know i'm dreaming. And nowadays i actualy have to make a conscious effort to remember what i was dreaming, otherwise all i remember is that i had a dream, but not any usefull details. It was so much easier when i was younger... i still remember my first nightmare.

Damn... i guess sleep isn't as useless as i thought... damn you tiredness.

[Omega_Destroyer]

My name comes from Omega Red's super attack in Marvel vs. Capcom 2. Omega Red is a mutant from Marvel comics who has metalic tentacles that extend from his forearms. Due to his powers, his skin is chalk white and he needs to constantly drain people of their life to regenerate himself. That's a bare-bones description of him.

OMEGA DESTROYER!!!
Omega Red holds out his arms and his tentacles start flailing around randomly and hitting almost every place on the screen.

Actualy his mutation is that he constantly exudes a poisonous substance from his skin, the rest are inhancements he received as a soviet super soldier.
