You could have been EldritchWarrior.. Warrior and Warlord have the same number of letters.
True, but I thought EldritchWarrior looked stupid without the space. I still do and I don't really know why.

Joshimodo? It's one of my nicknames, since my real name is Josh.

My actual in-game name on most things is Xai Xo, however. I made it up in 2001 when I made an account on Runescape. My current screenname was Nexus, however it was already taken.


I guess Xai Xo was born from my martial art-filled upbringing, which always led to Asian influences in things such as this.

A combination of 2 fears, and influenced by some annoying Extremist Athiest who i believe was kicked off a while ago on GamePolitics, the only difference is his was PandRalisk

MetaKnight19. i dont know how i came to choose my profile name really. i thought MetaKnight was basically the best/most badass character of the kirby games, and 19 is my favourite/lucky number. combine the two and there you have it.

When I was little I had a surgery on my eye. Ever since then I've had the wierd ability to kinda pop my eye a bit out of its socket...long story short my friends in high school gave me the nickname Big Eye and it stuck. hehe

I came up with this when my account name on Xbox was banned...

Took 5 seconds, and it was original.

Stuck with me ever since...

My old name, not on Xbox though was whenfiddlesattack.

mines a splinter cell reference, in the tutorial videos in chaos theory Sam talks about being the unnoticed shadow and I thought "I could make that work..."

the first thing I used it on was x box live so I had to take away an 'n' so I could fit it all

Mine is actually my real name on this site. :)

Though on other sites I go by the name Appsro.

Appsro stands for the After Effects tools I use for animation. "Anchor Point, Position, Scale, Rotation, and Opacity."

happened on the first day of Yr 10 at school, I was acting crazy as usual and my friend asked me what I had for breakfast. I responed 'shrooms'. That afternoon I was playing WoW and decided to make a new character to join the same friend on his server, I made the name as a joke so he would recognise me.

Thank you, you're not the first person to compliment my picture
Seems no one on The Escapist cares that my last name is Rocker but hey if people like my picture instead I don't mind

My original name was Death2uall1 when i was younger. However i grew older and realised how pathetic that sounded so i chose Overlord (after Operation Overlord) and the 59 came from my house number.
