How did you get your profile name?

[Strawb]

During a certain school period of my life, some of my classmates started calling me strawberryhelmet, which comes from a song in my country(Denmark). The song was attributed to me, as was the name. At first I used the entire nickname for various things, mostly multiplayer games, but switched to Strawb when I wasn't able to write the entire name in some games.

 

[BuckminsterF]

At the time I had been working on a project involving a geodesic dome (invented by Buckminster Fuller) and thought Buckminster was the greatest name ever, still do

 

[Charisma]

I love irony, so I chose the one thing I don't have.

 

[Crosseyes]

Feeling bored during a meeting by my counselor to my 6th grade class. I just doodled this guy and named him, and from then on he was my handle for everything. I wouldn't find out, until many years later, that my avatar is already very similar to that of... Blink-182's *shudder*

Fate really kicked my teeth in on that one.

 

[Teh Ty]

"Teh" is my favorite l33t/txt speek, and 'Ty' is my nickname.

 

[The Atheist Knight]

I'm an atheist who posts videos on youtube I wanted a username that didn't suggest I took myself very seriously.

I like to think people find the username funny.

 

[Scarecrow38]

My favourite author is Matthew Reilly and the main character in, what I think is, his best series is Shane 'Scarecrow' Schofield.

So that's my Escapist name.

 

[Bunnwhacketbuzzardstubbleandboot]

This my online/gaming name that I use just about every where else. It was one of the titles originally considered for "Monty Pythons Flying Circus". It's long and somewhat incomprehesible, but I kind of like the sound of it.

 

[Maggotworm]

unfortunately this is a nickname of mine. It's a very long story.

 

[Ridonculous_Ninja]

I was going to play Ninjas on Genre Wars (the last thing that incited me to actually make an account) and I consider myself Ridonculous.

 

[The Shrubbery Demander]

I just had Monty Python on my mind when I was deciding a name.

 

[demoman_chaos]

I wanted something without a ton of numbers to try and remember, so I went with the first thing that popped in my head. It is my username for everything.

 

[SebZero]

At lunch my friends were trying to help me think of a GT.

My name is Sebastian (Seb for short), and Mortal Kombat popped into my head for some reason. My favorite character is SubZero, thus I said, "SebZero?" and they thought it was good.

I've stuck with that ever since.

 

[Generator]

It was my favorite song at the time I made my profile. Go ahead, look it up. But be prepared to get your socks rocked off by some serious talkbox intro action!

 

[AWC Viper]

I like the Car Made by dodge, the Viper and i was in the Clan »ÃW?. Simple

 

[CrafterMan]

Crafter man.

I don't know how else to explain it really, it's THAT obvious! XD

-Joe

 

[Ossum]

I needed a nickname that wasn't like any of my others, but had to be awesome.

Then I found out it sounded a lot like opossum, so that's my avatar.

Oh, and I like the Fool tarot card.

 

[LordChhaya]

I chose mine because it sounds good and I may have an ego....I was never sure maybe I just crave a peerage.
