What Inspired your forum name?

[hobbzinio]

Yeah just wanna see why you are called what you are around here and see the reasoning behind it.

My name is a mixture of two things. This girl at primary school when I was a nipper who I went out with for a week or so lol, used to say my italian sir name was hobbzinio.

Years later, when I was playing Champ Manager on the Nationality it came up as italian and I thought "Im Hobbzinio!" lol and selected it.

Since ive just used it as me online name. So why are you all named like what you are on here?

[mcj metroid]

michael christopher john Metroid


Metroid for obvious reasons:)

[Roostophe]

I am an Aston Villa supporter. Villa's nickname is The Villans. Therefore I am a Villan. In fact I am THE Villan!

[mcj metroid]

[Coolness Bears]

My usename is a result of my brain being to random. :D

I used it to show my excitement, by accident.

Instead of saying that looks cool or awesome, i said ahh!! Coolness Bears. :grin:

I had never said that phrase before in my life. :)

[Mike1988uk]

My 360 gamertag... Mine is quite boring really. First name-year i was born-country i'm in.

[Slaggis]

It's vaguely like my surname, so people used to use it as my second name instead of my real one. Also I came back from scotland once and used it as my username for a forum, and have been ever since.

[EEVILMURRAY]

\/ \/ \/ \/

[Dan Dare]

Dan Dare is an old comic strip character like Flash Gordon

[Stefkov]

My brother's nickname with my first name in front of it.

[darksnowman]

Erm, I wanted an email address that was unique and wasn't simply my name like so many others seem to have. Took me a good afternoons thinking to come up with darksnowman, I wanted something that wouldn't need numbers after it either... and thus when I registered on C-E I was darksnowman, and continued it onto here.

Been tempted to change, but I'm used to it.

[Twozzok]

Needed something for xbox live back in 2003/4, this is what came to me, used it ever since.

[harribo]

Can't stand them.

[Shino]

[Tales]

Registred this username at the time I was a huge Tales of Symphonia-fan. Now I use it one every other site I register on because I think it sounds cool and unique, nothing to do with the Tales-series, although I'm still a fan of it.

[Dyson]

Because I suck.

[Hellfire]

I was spawned in the dark pits of the land of doom where light can't reach.

Also, it sounded cool.
I had no idea people actually used the word hellfire for... er.. fire from hell, nor that it was a missile.

[Supergrunch]

My name just popped into being, fully formed.

[Oxigen_Waste]

http://www.blackcerenity.com/pics/shino.jpg

Best Naruto character.


As for me, it's what I am. :D

[Letty]

Its my actual name :smile:

I was registered as sarkas_girly back in the day, though, for obvious reasons.

[Happenstance]

Mine was just the name of a Fozzy album and I liked the sound of it

[Ant-Shimmin]

It's my name and I don't really have a Alias of source...

I'm proud of myself wether people think my opinions are wrong or right and I want them to know who said it

[bluey]

i wanted something different from the username i usually use for eeeeeverything ~ ("niftylite" <-- thats got a story behind it :P) when i used to post on the `NEO magazine forums (woo..... heh) my avatar was a blue gloomy bear - gloomies are cute and wanna maul people all the time (not like me at ALL.... hehehe)
tadah bluey.

[Blackfox]

I saw it, and stole it. And hate it.

[Jordan]

Lol @ James.
Fail.

Guess where MINE came from.
One guess.

[Daft]

Daft Punk f*cking rock! We named the band I was in Daft C*nt. Daft C*nt then became my user name on my computer...I then decided to tone it down a bit so it went to DaftMaster (Still my e-mail address)...and I just cut it down to Daft for the forum....I'm thinking of changing it to DaftVice in line with my Gamertag...

[Fanelia]

fanelia is the name of a kingdom in an anime series called "escaflowne". not the best series ever, but i liked the kingdom because it got burned to the ground. i'm quite the fan of putting things on fire. and it has a girly note to it. i like girls too.

having that nickname for 8 years now... on the net that is.

[UK]

Can't stand them.

Oh, the irony of it.

Mine is from an outburst of patriotism.

[Jamba]

Think I posted a pic of Dr Jumba from Lilo & Stitch on another thread. As my girlfriend will tell you, it's one of my favourite films and when I needed a troll name for WoW, I adapted it. Annnnnd it stuck; just like kibbles.

[Naruto]

Too obvious to explain.

[Jordan]

My guess is, you like Dragonball Z? Am I right? :p

[My Buttons are Magic!]

magic stars +
dairy milk buttons
=
magicbuttons!

then someone *grr you* changed it into the sexually suggestive My Buttons are magic!

[EchoDesiato]

Echo because it sounded cool at the time.

Desiato comes from Hotblack Desiato, a character from the second H2G2 book: The Restaurant at the End of the Universe.

I'm thinking of changing my name.

[UK]

magic stars +
dairy milk buttons
=
magicbuttons!

then someone *grr you* changed it into the sexually suggestive My Buttons are magic!

Oh, but I really thought your buttons were magic.

Seems logical, though.

[My Buttons are Magic!]

my buttons are magic!

just didnt want the whole forum to know :indeed:

[Goron_3]

magic stars +
dairy milk buttons
=
magicbuttons!

then someone *grr you* changed it into the sexually suggestive My Buttons are magic!

lol i love your username! And your sig is too cute btw :)

Now where did I think of Goron_3 from...hmmm. Back in the days just before I was getting my first laptop, my friend was creating me a msn account and I needed a password. At the time I was playing through Ocarina of Time: Master Quest and my mum said something to me like 'Anil, that 3rd brown person looks like you' (referring to the Gorons), so I figured that my msn password could be 'Goron_3'.

Anyone reckon I should change it straight to Goron?

[Jamba]

Silly buttons!

hehe thanks...
i do quite like this sig.. i love eevee's!

Silly buttons!

yeh well.. wasnt me who changed it..lol
.. augh well.. i like it and it stays!

[Jamba]

hehe thanks...
i do quite like this sig.. i love eevee's!


Yeah Eevee is the cutest. So cute in fact that I named my bike after her, kind of. It's a Suzuki Van Van --> V V ---> Eevee

[mr-paul]

My username comes from a couple of years ago in French, when some of my friends randomly started calling me Mr Paul occasionally, and I kinda liked it so it became my msn address, and then everything else just became it aswell so I don't have too much too remember in terms of usernames etc. I'm never referred to as Mr Paul now, but it kinda stuck as an internet name.

[Aalborg]

well first I was Erling here.. my sur name.. then i was Librarian.. my work.. now im Aalborg.. my hometown and my xboxlive name.. I chose it so that if I by accident stumble across some other Gamer from Denmark he/she would recognise another Dane

[My Buttons are Magic!]

Yeah Eevee is the cutest. So cute in fact that I named my bike after her, kind of. It's a Suzuki Van Van --> V V ---> Eevee

umm.. ok . :heh:

on another note.. i dont like it when people change their names all the time - i can never keep up!

[Strider]

Lord of the rings.

The one before (The Twilighter) sounded mystical so i had that, but didn't like the "the" so i became Strider.

[Retro_Link]

Retro = Retro Studios (pure class)
and the fact I started out on the now Retro games,

Link = umm... Link!

[conzer16]

Mine comes from the first email address I had when I was online for the very first time.

conzer - a nickname I had when I was younger
16 - the age I was when I first signed up for an email address.

[welsh_gamer]

Pretty obvious really isn't it? I just decided on using a gaming related title (gamer) as this is a gaming forum afterall, and my nationality (welsh). I must of have been in a rush when regestring, but the fact that I am the only welshy I know, who play's video games should make my name somewhat unique.

[Bluejay]

I saw it, and stole it. And hate it.

Change it to FlackBox then.

Just don't change my to JewBlay. :shakehead

I'm thinking of changing my name.

No, it is good.

I am thinking of changing mine to Old Man Peters.

[Fresh]

I'm very Fresh.

[Iun]

It is one of my 8 names. My third middle name, to be precise. I'm part Native American, see.

[EEVILMURRAY]

I'm very Fresh.
As Fresh as?
http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/9130/freshprincegp7.jpg
I highly doubt it.

[LazyBoy]

Partly because I love these:

and partly because i'm lazier than a rug on valium.

[Fresh]

¬_¬ Maybe.

[Gizmo]

Because I suck.

I lol'd :p

As for my name;

http://gaypatriot.net/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/gizmo.jpg

Apparently I looked like him when I was a kid, and hes awesome.

[AshMat]

First 3 letters of my first name.
First 3 letters of my last name.

[chairdriver]

My sister used to say: "You're such a chairdriver!" whenever I did anything stupid (its a reference to disabled wheelchair users, I'm not disabled myself though)

And then she was making me an email account for the first time, and she thought of that while I was away, and then it kinda just stuck.

Yeah, kinda shit story.

[GigaPlay]

I really don't know.

[weeyellowbloke]

Who knows. Maybe it has something to do with emoticons usually being small and yellow. Maybe it had something to do with the jaundiced dwarf sat next to me at the time of signing up. Or maybe it's just one of those things lost in the distant haze of time.

[Happenstance]

Partly because I love these:

http://www.vasanth.in/content/binary/LazyBoy_20009_thumb.jpg

Whats that on the chairs arm?

[Eddage]

My name is Edd, some people call me Eddage, simple really!

As for my previous names...

Twilight Link - because when I joined the first post was gonna be about Twilight Princess and Link is my favourite character.

Raw - first three letters of my surname (hence the RawEddage as my gamertag, Eddage was taken)!

[ReZourceman]

Was gonna make a thread on another forum being really helpful, but then just like didnt.

[Emasher]

My last name scrambled up with some letters added to make it pronounceable.

[BeerMonkey]

Because my old nickname in school was "Monkey"
i didnt want to be called just monkey so put "Beer" in front of it as i happen to like beer :P

[Cube]

The GameCube inspired my name.

[Dante]

[triforcemario]

If you can't guess mine, than you deserve multiple kicks in the groin.

[uəʌəsʎɐɾ]

I, too, want to change my name. Too many preconceptions with being Emo...

[Monopolyman]

Dunno. I suppose it sounded catchy at the time.

[Whisky]

My name starts with a J and my surname starts with a B. JB. And the avatar tells the rest of the story. Excepted that I kind of inherited this nickname from my brother.

Catchy nickname, isn't it?

[martinist]

Its yer ma's pet name for me while i'm in yer house every Sunday night givin' her some lovin'

[mariosmentor]

Um. Mario is cool. So I thought I would use characters in my avatar that I believe are cooler than him as a fictional mentor.

At one point it was Auron, another Roland from Dark Tower and now it is Wolfwood from Trigun.

[Platty]

My surname is Platt, My friends call me Platt and over time that turned into Platty.

and tada username.

[Konfucius]

I came across the name Konfucius in a film called Monkey King and the name stuck in my mind. It was also this time when I only had internet for a few weeks and was searching for a nickname.
Now I know better though how a) Konfucius should actually be written and b) who Confucious really was but I'll stick to my own spelling of Konfucius.

[AshMat]

If you can't guess mine, than you deserve multiple kicks in the groin.

That post for some reason had me laughing for about 5 minutes.

[mariosmentor]

Lol, Monkey King! What a horrible film!
Total American bastardisation of the classic series.

[Konfucius]

Lol, Monkey King! What a horrible film!
Total American bastardisation of the classic series.

Yes it was pretty crappy and confusing but I was young and needed a username :D

Well actually after watching the film I wasn't really that impressed but the name still stuck - partially because I knew that Confucious really existed and wasn't invented for this film.

[mariosmentor]

I must admit his repeated lines was the only thing I remember. It was something like "Confucious says...." at the start of every sentence.
Strange actually, he is the only characters name I can remember even before seeing you're user name, it was just stuck for some reason.

[Demuwan]

Bet you'd love to know wouldn't you ;)

[Gaijin von Snikbah]

My friend told me in a dream. And that is the truth.

[Ginger_Chris]

It may come to you all as a bit of a surprise, as its a bit of a secret, but I actually have ginger hair.

Even more surprising is my first name is Chris. The underscore is there to remind me of the good o'days.

I always thought you were actually smalle, but the reason was always better and less obvious than that.

[Twilight]

I dunno... It´s pretty dark over here in Winter and I quess it also has something to do with Twilight Princess. Oh and I also know a guy from a band called Twilightning.

I think that´s about it. :heh:

In Winter, is it dark 24 hours?

[MoogleViper]

Back on C_E I needed a username and FF was my second favourite game series and I like moogles. I don't really know about Viper, I think I just liked the word. I was gonna change it when I joind R-E but I never did. Might change it when I join Nivtende-Virtual-Reality-Europe.
