At the time, I used this name everywhere, minus the numbers. I don't know where they came from ...

Uhhh.

I kill drugs. With an M16.

Or I knew a guy who knew a guy who was high and needed to sober up to think of a name that isn't retarded, he needed to detox, and thus gave me the name >_>.

I like the dot hack games.
It's a clever homophone for ultimate that uses alt so sort of the ultimate alternative.
Have yet to run into a situation where the username was in use by anyone else on the net.

[IA]Paul · Post by **[IA]Paul** » Sat Nov 15, 2008 2:33 am

I've always thought it's been a waste to think of an online alias for myself, so when I first went on Halo, I just named myself "Paul." Then this clan recruited me and they were the [C] clan. It was around this time that I joined the forums. Oddly, someone else had used [C]Paul, so I had to add some numbers or something. So I added 95 (which at first was just random, but then I noticed it was mai year of birth) to my name.

Well, eventually, I left the [C] clan and joined a nonexistent clan by the name of [IA] (Ionic Aardvarks). I asked Kirk for a name change, badda-bing badda-boom, my name is [IA]Paul.

IonicPaul was a shortening of that name for my XBox LIVE gamertag because I didn't want to use the name [IA]Paul anymore. I used Ionic because it sounds cool (and is typically portrayed as cyan, my favorite color) and I've already explained Paul. One sucky side effect is on XBL my name is portrayed in text shows "I" as "l" so people call me "LonicPaul" and it sounds stupid as hell.

Philly · Post by **Philly** » Sat Nov 15, 2008 4:11 am

My original name of choice was 'Phil'. That name alreay existed, so I chose 'Philly' instead. Crazy stuff right there. My other alias, 'Quagmirian' has a more interesting story. I was browsing this site looking at skins in the outstanding section, when I found a guy called Phil Quaglinoman. That's one of the 1337est names I've ever heard. I wasn't going to copy his name, so I made a ripoff, 'Quagmirian'. A more recent alias I have is Private Sparrow...

Geo · Post by **Geo** » Sat Nov 15, 2008 12:52 pm

First name is George, I expressed I didn't like the name George at a young age so my friends and family decided on Geo.

iGeo is because a lot of places require 4 characters minimum for usernames.
