My username was an amusing private message from a /b/tard asking me to, and I quote
"stop bieng such a gerammer nazzi."

I obviously refused.
Also, I corrected his spelling in the reply PM.

a nickname coined in year 9 by a group of friends. Lots of people asked me where it came from, and all were severely disappointed when I said "Charlie just came out with it when discussing what I should be called, since "Anthony" was just plain boring". I'm also called D'Tiger by a few people :p

I noticed a lack of fancy men, I became Monocle Man to fill that void.

Some may say Monocle Man is a hero, other say he's a villain. I say "Whatever suits the situation"

It was originally clicketyclack but then I forgot my password so I just changed a letter when I made a new profile.

I wanted it to be boiling acid bath based off of a D.I. song, but that's too long so I shortened it to hotacidbath.

I didn't want to use my typical RuroRemy name, so I went with this one.
I often go for overly stupid and redundant usernames when I quickly make something up, like FrozenIce or BurningFire. Instead this time I thought of directions.
So now my name is Up, AboveUp.

Mine is my gamertag except i forgot to press the space bar between EMF and Crackshot XD
I chose it because the day i got xbox live i had just earned my RAF marksman badge at cadets and everyone was calling me crackshot =D
The EMF is from the first clan i joined. i was just too cheap to change it. It stood for Earths Muppetry Forces. Don't ask me, i didn't make the clan
Anyway, that has now become my online identity.
There you have the story of my internet name.

Mine came from a 3E D&D character I had who became stupid powerful due to the dm not being very good at providing higher level challenges. So since I liked the character a lot I started using him as a screen name, PSN name, works great since its moderately unique.

Like I said in the Origin thread:
Was watching Back to the future hence Time Travelling
Ended up making toast hence Toaster
and studying an English poem give me alliteration.
So Time Travelling Toaster was born :) and I noticed that's a fair bit of multi tasking for me >.>

On another forum, I signed up with the name Zuko, as an homage to the character from Avatar. I quickly devolved into nubness, which became something of a long-running joke. Thus, I needed one of the users on the forum to make an email for me at one time, which ended up as Zukonub, and I decided to keep it when I registered on other sites.

Both halves of my profile name come from two different games that i have played and enjoyed, SoS came from when I played Soul Caliber III, and was "Soul of Siegfried',because It was the character I used. Everyone called me SoS, so it was shortened, but SoS is always taken, so I slapped Overlord on there, if you guessed because of the Overlord game, you are wrong, It is off the SRPG Disgaea, Overlords reigning over entire netherworlds were awesome!

It's a pun at the fact that I almost never finish my 3D stuff and that I'm in the process of learning modeling, texturing and rigging and animating.
