What's the story behind your username?

Why did you choose the username that you did?

Comments

My Forums username is just something i came up with randomly. It also used to be my IGN before i changed my IGN to my real name, Replacing A with 4, I with 1 and E with 3, because somehow i thought that was cool at that time 😂🤦‍♂️

Thanks_D19

A typo

Luke9523

Decided to go with 616 coz... You know. And it's been the same for quite a few years now.
... or the number of the beast?? Curious.
Iron maiden were wrong all these years?

Iron Maiden 🤟🏻🤟🏻 Hell yes! Good music taste!

That songs like 40 years old and was accurate at the time.
I don't know how it happened or came about (I'm not religious at all, just remember reading this), but it was said that they way the numbers were written, it was 616, not 666.

TheBair123

My ADD told me to make my name "symmetrical" in a sense if you get what I mean. Like if my name was KiLlErOfMaN I would never be able to sleep at night

Ctuchik

A bad guy in a David Eddings book series. Sounds cool so I went with it.

Rookiie

Rockycreed was my IGN (after Rocky and Apollo Creed, who inspired me when I picked up boxing).
I wanted a different forum name, and Rookiie came from Rocky.

Xguard77

My #1 hobby (sorry MCOC) is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. X Guard comes from that, it's a 'move' of sorts, and I use the name for MCOC, Peloton etc.

ProximaMidnight_8

I really like proxima midnight and it wasn't available so 8 got added

Snizzbar

A bad guy in a David Eddings book series. Sounds cool so I went with it.

Pushed into the stone underneath the city-mountain, by Beldin I think. If I'm remembering correctly that is - I hope I'm not confusing him with someone else 🤔
Edit: and of course I was wrong. Zedar was sealed in stone and Ctuchik was the "be not" guy.

DigletGaming

I like diglett. But at the time I spelled diglett with one t so...

JragonMaster170

Dragons are real.

My height

Epistriatus

Merged the latin name from my pet snake: epicrates striatus (striatus) > epistriatus.

Wow! That's awesome.
I love snakes, I have an epicrates cenchria maurus.

Drenlin

When I started playing Dungeons and Dragons back in the 80s it was the name of my first character. I actually DM now for my kids and Drenlin is an ancient Hero known throughout the land

Squirrelguy

So it’s Squirrelgirl...... but I’m a guy. I’ll let you figure out the rest

TrashPanda12

I'm horribly unoriginal.

#PandaGang

same, #PandaGang

Scarcity27

Weird one here.
My main's IGN is SkyChaser27. I chose that name cuz I'm writing a book and the protagonist's name was Skylar Chase. I did change the last name, but Chase is now the name of her best friend.

My forum's name, and my second account's IGN is the same. I chose Scarcity cuz it sounds like a cool book title.

ADwar616

Decided to go with 616 coz... You know. And it's been the same for quite a few years now.
@ADwar616 Did you go with 616 because of Marvel's Earth-616 or the number of the beast?? Curious.

Yeah... I like the prime Marvel universe. So, 616. I thought of going with 2149 ( the zombie Marvel universe), but 616 seemed nice.

Wubbie075

Wubbie is my actual nickname. More people call me that than my birth name.

The numbers have significance too but the explanation is boring.
