I was inspired to make this thread

Been looking through the SG Closed Threads Archives (started on Page 600), learning the history of SG.


Anyways! How did you guys come up with your username? Mine was from a long time ago, I seem to always have a hard choice picking usernames for games so I thought: nose + f = nosef. I've been using this username everywhere ever since :P

Name of the main character in the Darkangel Trilogy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Darkangel_Trilogy), way before Stephanie Meyer came onto the scene. He was kidnapped as a child, had his heart gilded in lead and was unable to love. Maybe it's 'cause I read it when I was 11/12, but I've always enjoyed the books for its strong female character, & Irrylath's inability to love.

My original alias was Tapeworm. I get it from a song by the band known as Pigface. Unfortunately, I forgot my password for it so I switched to Tapewormz. I've been Tapewormz since 1992. It goes back to my days on BBS networks.

Since you asked...a friend of ours (we're now married) said that I was the Chaos his life needed, and he was the rock that I needed. His name is SILiconVampire, as he builds & repairs computers, and Vampire because he stays up late at night working on said computers. Henceforth, the name. I am Sil's Chaos :D

I didn't know how to write two hands so I decide to write it tohands ;p

nah but that's what people think when they see my nick, reason behind that is my old company has the name "Hands" and we were using the old redirect site (kickme.to) so if you read the url it said kickme tohands, that's where the tohands came from. I hope you love my story, haha.

Me: Let's find an uber generic name. Oh I know! Sinner!
And if Sinner was taken on any other forum, I would use DatSin. I was thinking of Dat Ass at the time. Then I realized that it was very close to DatSik.

Back in the day, I played Webkinz (if you didn't know, it's a sucky pet-plush animal social/MMO thingy)
And I had to pick a username- cvcv8. C for my first name's initial, V for my last name's initial, and 8 was my age at the time. But, my mom typed it wrong- thus making all my usernames ever since, vcvc8.

For the record, it was 5 years ago, and when my username is taken (which only happens when I try joining a site I forgot I joined, and have no idea what the password is) I use exquisite12 (12 is because exquisite is usually taken too.)

Long time ago, when I thought that Ragnarok Online was a good game, and I had some friends crazy about it...
A friend of mine was helping me to create an account in some RO server, we had to put an username, and it went like this:

Friend: Ok, username?
Me: Uh... I dunno... Araña (Spider)?
F: Nah, fuck that, I'm typing arañita (Little spider).
M: Fine.
F: What? The server doesn't allow Ñs.
M: Just remove it, it will be fine.

I'm ashamed of that story, but I'm too lazy to make a new, decent name.

Just a random name I made up. I generally like to go for gender neutral or what might be seen as a "male" name.
