"daft" for Daft Punk (I was listening to them nonstop at the time), and "alchemist" because I wanted a random work to pair with "daft", and "alchemist" was the first one that came to mind

When I go to bars, I like to play the trivia games sometimes. One time, about 6 years ago, I got a ridiculously high score on one of the games, and my fried said I was "The Man" at that game. So when I typed in my high score, I wrote "The Man" instead of my name. But then when I looked at it, I thought it was a bit generic and unoriginal, so I tacked on an extra 'N' at the end and called it good. I started using that for all the games I played, then eventually started using it as my internet handle as well.

My name comes from a struggle from within, conquering crushing depression and coming out the other side. By this I mean that this was the name of my first D&D character. The half red dragon half drow that kicked everyones asses.

The d is a surname that is actually not pronounced (so its not da-kyros its just kyros). The surname is a mysterious word that starts with d. Kyros was a mix between my real name and the word zero. (10 virtual dollars to the first person to guess my real name).
is it Clearance? Micheletto? Mohammed? Hadrian?

GiaCasanova is a shortened version of Giacomo Casanova, the greatest historical figure of all time. (No, I don't hold that opinion because he slept with lots of the ladies...) And DoubleOhOne is my fakie handle in Her Majesty's Secret Service.

If you run into someone with the code number 001, there's a small chance that it's me. Agent Out.

About 5 years ago, I asked a friend what I should use. She happened to just tell me she liked pie, and the rest is history.

A friend once asked me to help her convince her roomie to name their new kitten Victoria, or some other name she had picked from an old English Author (yeah, she was a lit student), so I figured the best way to do so was to pick something so her choice wouldn't seem so bad in comparison.

What did I pick, completely on the spot?

Wuffykins Von Katze, Mouse Hunter Extraordinaire & Cuddly WWI Flying Ace (also Extraordinaire!)

Oh, I also said it was never to be shortened to Wuffy or Wuffykins, I told them the entire thing must be said each and every time.

So they gave me a very well syncronized 'Noooooooo' and named it something else.

Now why did I shorten it to Wuffykins if I wouldn't let the cat do it? Stinkin' character limits, that's why.

I was playing Red Alert 2 against the computer on hard. I thought to myself: "What would you call a guy who can beat Lybia on hard? ...Well he'd be one swanky fella."

And so a legend was born.

Edit: I was also 12.

ohhh and soo close, Thanks for playing you've truly been a terrific sport throughout the whole ordeal.
All contestants playing get a free Carbos for playing. When you need some speed, grab Carbos.
Carbos is a copy-right of pokemon. Carbos side effects cause diarrhea, dementia, nausea, vomiting, hallucination, erections lasting longer than 4 hours, and the unbridled love of My Little Ponies. Do not take carbos if you have a heart condition as it can cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure.

I like Doctor Who.

But due to copyright infringement, I had to settle for the word "what."

But, as a fan of the spy genre, I have about three different names I go by. Plus there is my pen name.

Even I'm confused.

I have a huge thing for all kinds of mythologies and fables, especially Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. I wanted to incorporate this with one of my favorite video games characters, so I thought Auron from FFX would work given that he is called 'Sir' by many and is chivalrous and inspiring, core values of a knight.

Mine came out from becoming a fan of the hellsing series, as many of you know (and if u dont, feel free to provide yourself with a facepalm) Alucard is dracula backwards,
therefore i decided to use a mystical/mythological figure's name backwards.
turned out to be quite an unique name.

First account I ever made: A yahoo email address when I was like 10. I, always being ridiculously tall for my age, had/have a large armspan/wingspan. Went somewhere once, and it was shown to be on par with that of a Condor (coincidentally, my favorite animal). And thus, it stuck. The numbers were random ones generated by Yahoo the first time I made an email there, and I like to keep all my ducks in a row, so I kept 'em.
