Um. Well, my nickname was Captain Rob through grades 8-10. When I finally (FINALLY) got a 360 and Live, it was taken. One of the suggestions was HalfCaptainRob. And I dunno. It stuck.
Monocle Man was taken and I like titles with the same letter starting each word.
also it has a nice ring to it, my PSN tag is "Willah since my nick name and I inevitibley have some one say it out loud in whatever I play online

Well, this username I have on this site is a combination of two identities I've acquired. One (Aby) from Guild Wars, and the other (Z) from Xbox Live. My other, new one is either aZn or Death (maybe both).
I see usernames as just another way to identify someone. In the end, a username (or perhaps the shortening and... nicknaming of the nickname) can end up truly becoming part of you. It's funny, as 'Z' is my middle initial, so it works out quite well.

Meh. Usernames are simply required by almost all forms of media. Want to talk in a forum? Username! Want to play an online video game? Username! Want to contribute video/audio to the internet? Username! All I do is pick something that means something to me, if only mildly, and go with it. They aren't important. If everything I used usernames for had only ever given me a random number instead of a name option, I'd be no worse for it.
It started out as just a name, but now its become an identity. I use it (or a variation of it, but always containing at least Piff) on all the forums and videogames as my username/screenname. Basically if you see the name Pifflestick its a safe bet to say thats me unless the name starts with "IHate".
In fact, my name is unintentionally descriptive of the way my posts work a lot of the time. Piffle is defined as "nonsense" and to the random outsider who hasn't gotten to know me my posts will at best seem rambling and at worst be an unintelligable clusterfuck; Especially when I'm writing on a topic about politics.

It has become my persona. It is misleading, but an excellent identity, I feel, for the future ruler of the world.
I'm of Irish ancestory and I have the Berserkergang (fits of uncontrolable rage during battle or strenuous work). thus my name.
This is my username everywhere. Makes sense for it to be it here too. I just remember at first I wanted to be penguin, that was taken. Then I tried megapenguinx, taken. So I finally settled on megapenguinx.
