Re: Name Origins

Ok so i have probably one of the wierdist names on the site, but it is relavent because of three different points.

1. I obviously drink a "Lot" of redbull. (To keep up with the coarse-work i have to do... its dosnt seem to work :P)
2. I'm also a graffiti artist and it looks good on a wall.
3. The name stuck way back in year 7 when i was doodleing in my R.E book and i wrote it down out of pure whim (it looked awesome) so i just stuck with it.

And there you are, mystery solved. :D
 
Re: Name Origins

Mine is just a shortened version of my old RP name that I used on yahoo, now I use it for just about anything when registering for forums and the like.
 
Re: Name Origins

mine is just some random name i came up with years ago....
it is most likely the combination of anime, and dan...
but that was a long time ago so im not sure...
 
Re: Name Origins

Hey, Ravan, you do know the bird is a raven, don't you? Just thought I'd mention that... no offense.

Anywho, Walker actually came from the second forum I joined. I got started on forums with a writing/forum RPG called Serium, where I was Wraith, mostly because my main character was (originally) a man who could become shadow, from whence came his name; and eventually became one example of an extremely rare species of magic silicon based creatures who could form bodies of magical light and then turn them into flesh forms.

When I joined/co-founded a new site with one of the members of the old one, my fantasy character Wraith didn't fit, and I was starting to think that the name was kind of stupid, anyway. Eventually I came up with another character, named just Walker, and I took that as my name everywhere since. Walker is also one of my characters on something like eighty percent of my remaining writing RPGs. He and a couple other eventually became members of a group known formally as They/Those Who Walk Between the Worlds, or Walkers, and he became the Lead Walker... and it all grew from an utterly randomly chosen name.

And no, I don't think it had anything to do with Chuck Norris or the TV show "Walker, Texas Ranger," though people have said it did.
 
Re: Name Origins

I chose Dark_Master because I like the evil side of things, and because I'm a control freak, so it just kind of fit. But I asked ProjectEgo to change my name to black. because that game is crazy good, and black is still kind of evil.
 
Re: Name Origins

I'm not very original; I basically just take the domain name of the corresponding site and chop off the .com, .net, .org or whatever other extension I'm using and use whatever is left as my username. In this case: projectego.net, only without the .net. This accounts for the reason I go by 'devilmaycry' over on my Devil May Cry Forum, too. Nothing too far but there ya' go.

Yeah.
 
Re: Name Origins

I chose Xzero221 because.. You always gota be 1337 and have an X in your name, zero is my favorite #, and 221 is because my name is short in most games, so i have to make it longer.
 
Re: Name Origins

Nice thread... :) anyway:
Once I visited Neoseeker Digimon World forum to discuss... well Digimon World.
For unknown reasons, some posts there frustrated me (because they were too stupid I guess) and I got upset. So I changed my name to TRA Rotid, which basically means... well, I`m not going to say what TRA means :shifty: , but "Rotid" means "Rats". When I came here, I used the same name (didn`t want to think a new one), because I never decided to stay longer than 1 or 2 posts.
But now I`m here... and I can keep my name.:ninja:

Haha, good point, but I think Ravan was talking about the poetic way to describe a raven...as the symbol of death and despair.
 
Re: Name Origins

Mine comes from the Korean movie Oldboy
Which in it's turn is based on a Japanese Manga Old Boy.
The movie is definitely one to watch (but pretty violent so if you've got a weak stomach; be warned...).

Sometimes Old Boy also refers to the devil :ninja:

[edit]
Hence it has nothing to do with my age - depending of what you believe is 'old' - I'm 25...

Nice thread by the way +rep
 
Re: Name Origins

Reaper, always use it, since death surrounds us all, and the XXX because its always taken (no it's not sex)

Re: Name Origins

I've started using the username, "f39", on a few forums or websites when "Steve" is taken. It's basically the Spartan ID/serial number that I was assigned in Halo 3 online. I'm too lazy to come up with something "cool".
 
Re: Name Origins

my name came from the word man (obviously) i started using this name for a while, ever since i became heavily interested in human evolution and wondered what it will turn us into next. i also use this name at school to write on blank sheets of paper when im bored
 
Re: Name Origins

Miekka, as far as I know, means "sword" in Finnish. I just added an "s" to it for no good reason.
