Mine, is N3IWVC and if you were to turn your screen upside down it would read DAMIEN which is my first name. I know lame right... but is yours cooler? let us all know.
I am not liable for any damages to your screen if you did attempt to turn it over.

Reapus (Said like: Ree-pis) was a nickname given to me by an old .Dot Hack friend.

As the title says, what is the origin of your username? Why do you select such a name? Is the name special to you, or just a random name you thought of?...

My name, Zeroke, comes from an old imaginary world I thought of years ago. The world was a mix of characters and places I had seen in video games, televison, etc. I was the main protagonist, and I decided to name my "other persona" Zeroke...since Steven (my real name) wouldn't cut it.

What's your origin?...

However, as far as MMOs are concerned, I will usually go with a name that's more deep-rooted in mythology, or with a name
that sounds german...

I take what I said back.
My current MMO name is inspired by cough sweets :E

Databug- well this one is obvious, as it is pure .hack// related, and it does reference to me being a PC tech.

Comander Starlin- because i am an old westwood fan from the days of C&C alot of people know me under this name here as i have used and still use this name for just about everything, hence the Starlin MIX

Bwahahahahaha you are welcome to try. , but to go over Limit.

Because I'm an arsonist!! Nah I'm kidding, I really just made this up, and added kid...because I'm young.
I just might trademark it. I have two emails with my username in it, as well as other site urls.

Wow I never once posted in here! 0_0 Well any how I chose my username out of randomness. I like looking at different japanese names and there meanings or the kanjis and making up my own names. And well I came across this one and like it alot and decided I would make it my user name....only now I forget what it means. ^_^; (Gaint epic fail!!!) Though I am sure its on my list of favorite Japanese names I have laying around my pile of other important papers.

Sylux is my favorite character from Metroid Prime: Hunters.

Kenji Shinomori is actually the name of my Guardian Angel. Its a long story that only my closest of loved ones can know. >w< But yeah. He is my guardian angel~

FFR comes from a shortened version of a username I use on many different forums, FarFromRedemption. The username originally came from my very first account on gaiaonline. I have since lost interest in gaiaonline to persue other sites geared towards my interests. IE DotHackers.net

Apparently my username has a meaning that I never knew xD : http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/amaso

Mine is the first 3 letters of my last name (with a Z instead of an S) + A character from a book I like - VIZ + GIX

Mine comes from one of my favorite books, Imajica. John "Furie" Zackarius, a.k.a Gentle, was arguably my favorite character from it. I also use the names Gentle and Judith (Judith is my second* favorite character)

looking at this topic... i really should have been more original with mine...
BUT i ain't goin' back now!!!!!!!!
