Gamertags - why did you pick that name?
- Thread starter sorry user name taken.
- Start date
Both are a bit old and have their own story.
mykalwane is for simply mixing my first name with wane from wayne for Batman. At the time I thought was how wayne was spelled. I first got into Batman threw an old relative listening about him. This was back when Batman was more detective then bad ass. When I tried once to spell it mykalwayne the name was already taken. So I have sticken to mykalwane because most don't spell wayne wane.
MawBedlam is one that came from me first finding out what maw meant. I simply was into neat 3 letter names that make words. JAM for example, so thought if Mykal Wane was my real name what would make a word out of that. So first thought was try with the A then if that didn't work try another vowel. I liked the sound of maw, and cheeked to see if it was a real word. Turned out that maw meant the throat, gullet, or jaws especially of a voracious animal. Meaning the teeth. Since Bedlam means insane, and insanity comes forth from my mouth went with MawBedlam since that means the maw is a bedlam.

My Gamertag is Humanfishboy
It was a nickname given to me when I was a kid and, even though it's never used in real life any more, I still have it as all my internet personalities.
The only reason I'm "Amarok" here is because I already joined as humanfishboy but forgot my password!

crazysm0kybac0n
I had this whole "sm0kybac0n" thing going on pretty much every website I signed up on for a while (That's a long story...) it had never been taken on any site i'd been to so I assumed it would be available on LIVE too.
Anyway, when it came to make my gamertag it was taken [OH THE HORROR!!!] so I started latching stuff on to see what sounded good and BINGO: crazysm0kybac0n

The story behind j0z is a long one...
When I first got into playing strategy games (Civ to be precise) I didn't want to use my real name (Joshua), I wanted it to be a bit more foreign. So chop off the ending of my name, stick a z and you got it. Where did the zero come from instead of an "o"? Well, sometimes Joz was taken, but not j0z. Then it just stuck.

the thing with skullcheese501 is when i first started online accounts my friend suggested skulldude or cheeseman so it put them together and made skullcheese501 and 501 because they were the first numbers that popped into my head

Bad Advice, as in "You were killed by Bad Advice."
Yeah, it was like my 40th choice. Finding a gamertag that isn't taken is hard.

KnyteFox. Heard the name on some movie, liked the sound of it, spent 5 minutes trying to find a version that wasn't used.
Bam.

None of the names I wanted were available and this one is always a gaurantee to get.

There are a few reasons for each of my tags.
1) Cesasse: A throwback to one of my roleplaying characters
2) Tan: Always liked that name. Dunno why.
3) W33vil: Old tag, not used anymore, but to do with weevils.
4) Desynchro: Desynchronised, an odd depressive thought in my head
5) Reconnection: My. Fucking. MODEM.

bugexe...well partly was because i actually really liked the first 2 megaman battle networks and then my friend nate had this game that was terrible called onimusha blade warriors but we played it when i went to his house and on there one of the fighters is megaman and he could be in bug form and it was called BUG.EXE so i guess i stole from 2 game series......
