I think mine is unoriginal

I once remember the first time playing xbox, at my "cousins" house.
we played ghost recon 2
after winning 15 straight matches just using a sniper rifle, he was about to turn off the tv, however instead of pressing and holding the center button long enuff to go straight to the power off option.

he held the button to short, going into the Xbox menu
at the top i saw his gamer-tag was Polakwithagun

the name had imprinted in my mind,and would not reemerge until 4 years later when i first played CSS. although i originally choose the darthmatt(since i was 11 and loved darthvader), however i decided that the name Polak_With_A_Gun sounded scarier, and so i changed.

much later when i got my Xbox 360 i created my gamertag PolakWAGun <-- since polakwithagun was taken by my cousin.


with images of my lost heritage in my mind, and starting a new game called minecraft i came up with polakwitha_____
i didn't want to use gun since you don't shot in minecraft and i didn't want to sound like a COD tool, so i settled on block

and so Polakwithablock was born. :chicken:

At one point back in 8th grade, i decided to make an AOL Instant Messager username, and there happened to be an empty packet of skittles next to me on the desk. I also had a new-found fondness for the word "pwn" for some reason, so i tacked that on at the end, since "skittlespwn" was taken, i added a z, and since "skittlezpwn" was taken, i pressed the 2 number keys closest to the middle finger of my left hand, which are 4 and 3.

Your guess is as good as mine. :P

Just kidding. It has to do with the fact that grizzlies are one of my favorite animals of all time. However, every variation of Grizzly Bear was taken, and I despise username numbers. So I thought to myself, "How could you describe a grizzly bear?"

Well, they're rugged....
:D

This username first hit the interwebz, (As my spam email account of all things,) when I was 11. I saw no need to come up with anything else for Minecraft. Plus, I like the initials RB. And there you have it, ruggedbear.

So back in the day when we all played Yu-Gi-Oh (when we all thought we were bosses), there was a card that had a cool flamingknight on it called flamewarrior hence the name flamewarrior199. The 199 came from me making an e-mail that needed numbers in it(thats not my email by the way) :D . Oh and all the Dutch people on the servers you're awesome cause I'm also Dutch! :happyzombie: :happyskeleton: :happycreeper:

Well I had just watched an episode of south park, where this group of future people came to the present and took all of south park's jobs, and a bunch of rednecks got angry and kept yelling out "they took our jobs" in several different ways. They eventually came to the idiotic idea to get naked and get gay so there would be no new babies... :happycreeper:
I found the "they took our jobs" quite funny, and yeah, that explains my name...
(and hopefully this eliminates any unclarities resulting my name...not directed at any actual race :D )

I'm not sure I understand this post, but I'll make an educated guess. You made a mistake and got pregnant. And you have a username.

I've been using the name "fragmer" for so long that I've completely forgotten where it came from. I started using it a little over a decade ago.

I got the name Don_Don_Don when me and a friend decided to try out Minecraft, he typed some random name which just ended up as Don_Don_Don.
After playing over a few servers I decided I liked Minecraft so i took over the account as I had a rank on an old server. ^^

I don't actually like the name but I kept it because i got known by it.

My other alias is know as Whiskers. I use this mostly on steam or if I want to be sneaky
Another of them names I just ended up with and stuck with, but I actually like this one ^^

It doesn't take a genious to figure that my username is from the ever so popular webl's stuff video badgers that wasnt actually the name i originally wanted when i registered on minecraft i had just seen a top gear episode where the guys have to buy an old car in africa and drive aroundd there and jeremy clarkson was warning the othes about a fiercome beast called honeybadger that rips off its victims nuts ofcourse that sounded really badass and i wanted it as my nickname but it was already taken so i took the next thing that came to mind from badgers mushroombadger since then iv rolled with the name and also its finnish variant sienimäyrä.

My name originates from 2 parts.
My real name which is Ash, but it was extended into Ashy, a few people have called me this.

And Dobby comes from the Harry Potter house-elf. 7 years back in my first maths class of secondary school, meeting someone for the first time, they said I look like Dobby (from the ears) Since then friends, family and teachers have called me it. I used it on my Playsation3 id ASH_DOBBY and decided to use it in my minecraft name.

I needed a name not "THEbalzie"

Don't ask. ^


Since I know you are going to ask anyway:
My friends needed a name not "balz", so THEbalzie was born. They suggested I used it. I don't know if I was snorting unicorn dust that night, but I went with it. I hated it. I then shipped this name to boot camp for the rest of its miserable life, and birthed Jjb14.

As you may know and many people have spelt it like this, 'Arvana' is a real name, but not mine. I really respected someone with this name and decided to use it as my internet name, but due to a taken username on a certain site, it had an extra 'r' added to it. I also have a fetish for names beginning with an 'A'.

My other name is Rapidshot2, this was created due to my brothers name 'Mysfire' and I wanted mine to be similar, so one day I was playing KOTOR (knights of the old republic) and saw one of the special gun attacks which is 'rapid shot'. The '2' is my brothers date of birth.

I have a brother complex :/

This one is from a Super Nintendo game, Lufia: Rise of Sinistrals, great game that.

I was intentionally trying to find a neutral nickname I could use for everything, not just character names, but other things like cities as well. I played SimCity2000 at the time aswell you see. It's a good name for a mage/wizard too.
So Dankirk is a castle from Lufia game, a bit ironic for me to mention this on Minecraft...

Of course I only later discovered Dan Kirk is someones actual name, like the Comic Juggler you get when googling dan kirk. That was so hilarious when I found it out. Nevertheless, I plan on sticking to this nickname.

-----
About other nicknames I use:

Later on in RPGs I started playing female characters and so I needed a more femine name. Lufia was a logical choice for that, the whole game got it's name from that girl... sinistral... magical being, whatever.

Sasami, my current avatar, is from an anime Tenchi Myuo. The reason it's stuck so well in my head, is that I was playing WoW in 2004 as a female gnome mage, twintails and all. And then this character pops out in the anime and the resemblance was too stunning.
