Paulrus was my nickname at vocational school. Keaton, named after the ghost fox character from Zelda, used to be my sprite comic user name. I used them interchangeably up until I decided to combine the two.

My son, since he was four, after watching me play Lego Star Wars refered to R2D2 as "robot slipper" because I guess it looks like he's moving around wearing slippers?

[sanomaton]

Well my username is a Finnish word that means "unsaid" or something similar to that matter... I just liked the word a lot and I think it describes me as a person really well as there are lots of things I leave unsaid, hence the username.

[JezebelinHell]

From a song by Poe but it isn't a name a usually use and I am not sharing where I typically get my user names from because it would reveal too much about me.

It's shorthand for "Atmosphere".
The duality I tacked on at random because plain old Atmos was taken already.

It's just an archvile. The ninety three doesn't mean anything, I just tacked that on so it'd work for future usernames in other places.

[zega frega omega]

Several years ago, I watched a Final Fantasy parody called "Cactuar and Tonberry". In one particular video ("Resident Cactuar", I believe), Cactuar was talking and said something about the 'Zeta Beta Omega frat boys'. I loved the phrase, even though I didn't understand any part of it: I didn't know any of the Greek alphabet and I didn't know what a frat boy is. Anyway, when I got an instant-messaging name, misremambered the words and set it up as ZegaFregaOmega. Months later, still unknowing of the mistaken name, it came time to purchase scool hoodies; I had mine printed as "Zega Frega Omega". Time went by, and a year later, after registering to different sites and such, I ran across the cartoon again, and realized the mistake I had made. But I figured there's no point in changing my name, so I stuck with it. Three years passed until I signed up for The Escapist.

 

[jrubal1462]

I wanted to just use my name, Justin, as a username when we first signed up for Prodigy. Apparently there were 1461 equally creative Justins, because try as I might they WOULD NOT let me have just Justin, so I reluctantly took justin1462. I think we switched away from prodigy and then back, so they still had justin1462 "taken" so I was forced to switch to first initial last name....I kept the number
