Explain you Username thread

CompKronos · Post by **CompKronos** » Fri Nov 14, 2008 5:43 pm

Well I have wondered what do people think when they make there user names or gamer-tags or whatever, so I thought why not everyone share (only if they feel like it of course) and so I made this thread.

my CompKronos or Computer Kronos (comp for computer) comes from a cross between the radio shack computer tool series called Kronus and Computer Kratos as kind of computer hacker or ruler (with my on-internet friends i super cede their computer intelligence dramatically not at all so much here) However at the time i thought Kratos god of war was chronos so eventually i got Computer Kronos.

hope this is enjoyable somewhat, thought it could be interesting curious on Tural/Veegie/Yodel and others

Yes you are. =p

Mine is a word I made up when I was like 10, and it's just sort of stuck with me, and I use it for a lot of things.

Also, if I recall, there's been a thread like this one, but that was a while back, so whatever.

well i've had many different online names so...

1. Bighalfling: my first username ever, it was my original xbox live account (not xbox 360 live)

2. Deathkitten: My second online username ever ever, i made it when i was a little kid and i thought it sounded funny, no real explanation

3. Abefroman: my second username, it's the sausage king of Chicago which i got from Ferris Bueller's Day Off (a movie), i had this username changed from deathkitten ages ago a little while before i stopped going to this website and started playing WoW which leads me to my next username which was my first username on WoW

4. Freedhem: if you've seen the commercials it's the one application hemorrhoidal cream, after that i made a bunch of random ones that didn't last more than a week or so, but one of them has lasted for a really long time and is my current xbox (360) live account name...

5. Themurloc: This is only my xbox live username because microsoft makes me pay to change it, i quit WoW ages ago but the WoW reference remains in my gamertag, Murlocs are these wierd fish/shark/person monsters in WoW that i was obsessed with, almost every character i made was named some variant of that, i.e. Tehmurloc, themerloc, etc...

6. Manbearpig: an obvious south park reference, any account i make online nowadays is called that. It's also my nickname at school (don't ask)

arranged chronologically, which reminds me, looks like you got the god of war and the god of time mixed up when you made your name, Comp

Actually bibbit, where I live it's slang for any kind of insect.

And yes, there was a thread like this.

Damn, I love those snacky-cakes.

"Yodel" was (and still is) my username on Halo: PC, as well as Halo: CE and Halo 2.

I'm angry and I shout a lot. Ignore the rvb part. I think this is the 5th thread about this very same topic.

okay fine, i understand i haven't seen the other threads but if you guys really hate giving a bit of insight into your online pseudonym then fine, i guess i thought it was neat

and yeah AbeFroman right after i had made the GT i realized i had confused the two but i thought it sounded cool nonetheless

guysullavin · Post by **guysullavin** » Fri Nov 14, 2008 6:55 pm

i made mine when i was in grade 4, it was actually a comic book series, then i made Bob Mc George, but that's another story for another time. but Guy Sullavin just sorta stuck with me and now its almost like a second name to me

Corvette19 · Post by **Corvette19** » Fri Nov 14, 2008 7:01 pm

Corvette19... ages and ages and AGES ago...
This is where it all started
I remember when I made that name, I was madly insane over Corvettes, and My lucky # was 19, still is.
19: When I was in the 2nd grade, it was my last year at my elementary school, because I had moved from the country into the city, and 19 was the "number" I was assigned in my class, so it stuck as my lucky number since.
It has brought me luck many times, seriously.
But yeah, corvette19 was my gamertag back in 04-05, that's when Halo 2 was in it's prime, before MLG came in and ruined it, and brought the disease to Halo 3.

sup

My name has no story. I just thought of it one day. Wanted a short name that didn't reference anything or sound gay. Sorry.

WaeV · Post by **WaeV** » Fri Nov 14, 2008 7:21 pm

My first username was zbugz15, because my mom called me "bug" for some reason. I wanted a better name with a catchy tagline (taglines were pretty popular back then, if I remember correctly) so I settled on "Wave - Go with the flow / floe"

After a year or so, I needed a photobucket account badly, yet the site wouldn't let me register, so a friend (aka Monazite on these forums) registered for me. Wave was taken, so he used WaeV as the username. I liked it better, so I switched.

Or you can be a downer and read my explanation.
And versions of KB, K_B, or just Ketchup evolved.
Hurrah for internet names!
