In my case, Yirg is a short for Yirgacheffe - my favorite type of Ethiopian coffee beans.

What's the meaning of your username?

Oh, and meet Millie, Pester and Pongo :-)

A reminder that once I was a 15yo kid who swore other kids mothers while beating the shit out of them on some online game :)

I'm looking for an other username long time now, but can't seem to find a good one that means something to me. I'm all about the meanings.

I'm sure people can come up with suggestions for a new meaningful nickname, but you have to give us something more to work with...

I thought of making a thread about it a giving some info to help you help me, but I'm not that much of a "thread making guy" and also I don't have anything to giveaway to please the thread gods.

I'm working on the later and I'll see what I can do about the first.

It comes from my first name, Wojciech. In early 2000s there was a ski jumping game where real ski jumpers names were replaced by "almost identical" fictional ones. One of the replacements was Wojciech -> Waciach. My brothers started calling me Waciach and I decided it was a good nickname.

Toki means "Cleaver" in my native language; thought it was cool. When I got here it was taken, and I was too lazy to think of something else, so I just added 2 random letters to it. Though I could have used Tokl, now that I think of it.

So, I didn't always use this username. I was creating a Blizzard account for SC2 and I had to create a shorter username, so I just thought something up on the spot. Squire, because knights are cool and stuff, and Zed because... honestly, I have no clue. I didn't think it through very well. Then my brother just cribbed Squire Ned, because he's lame and stuff.

Way back, when I played The Minish Cap for the first time, I thought I'd name myself "Hero", 'cause ya know, that's what you're playing, and I was about 10 years old. Then I started playing online games, where, of course, the name Hero was always taken already. I didn't like adding numbers or weird stuff like that, so I decided to double the vowels. And this I've been using ever since (^w^)

In school we made up words that would have the acronym "wtf" because we thought it was funny :D I used the name in some games and later in Steam. One or two years later I became vegetarian ^^

Some people think, that I am some kind of the ruler of the world, or something, but I always meant it as "The majesty of our human race". :)

I always loved the Frank Herbert book Dune, as well as the mini-series. Some bastard on another site e-mail?, steam?, I no longer remember took Desertmouse &/or Desert_mouse, and I took the only reasonable action left.

I needed some unused username on some forum, so I used the first thing came to mind - it was tequila - and changed the first letter.
Don't know why I chose it here, because I've never used it anywhere else, preferring something lizardlike for a nick =<

It was a while ago. I was a kid, playing Runescape like a boss. I could barely speak ennngrisshhh and because of that I thought that words with Z and X were badass. Amazingly cool! Like... the best thing ever! So, one day when I was sick, I was thinking of names. Names like Zurlek and Xarnoz came up, but they felt horrible to pronounce. So I picked up Zeruel after "careful" considering. About 1 month ago, I found out from my stream viewers, that there is an anime character in a show called Evangelion called Zeruel, who looks like toilet paper.
Since I have never watched an anime show except Avatar, I don't call it one of the influences. It's just a coincidence. Although it's amazingly cool and funny in my opinion, since I used to be a kid who thought that the name xXAzraelXx is cool! xD

I was logging in to play Asheron's Call for the first time (1998 or 1999, I believe). I was in a hurry to get into the game to play with a friend and couldn't come up with a character name, so I closed my eyes, pecked random letters on the keyboard, and rearranged them into something somewhat coherent.

I've had the same name in every MMO since then, and I just kept it for consistency and recognition among my friends. All my long-term gaming friends call me T.Z., though. :S

No, but I get asked that a lot. ;)
Sadly, I'm not very creative at all when it comes to game-names.

I'm not even Russian -- I'm Irish/American Indian. :X

TheLuckyShamrock
The = It's an article, you know. xD
Lucky = I'm considered a very lucky person.
Shamrock = Shamrock means clover and clover is supposed to bring good luck. Also, the shamrock is the emblem of Panathinaikos, which is the Greek team that I support.
