SkyGriever Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Ok... SkyGriever. I remember the Sky was part of an old screen name of mine Skyline, like the car. And the Griever is from FFVIII, the lion on Squall's collar and ring and also part of the final battle when Ultimecia creates a manifestation of the GF to battle the party. That's all... Maybe I should get a new one, what do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vargras Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Vargras just popped into my head one night. Not even kidding. It's fairly unique, so I'm typically able to get it when I need it. The Steam name I typically use is Sock. Why Sock? Because of a demonic hamster. I absolutely love the animation style this guy has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

excel_excel Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 This anime Excel Saga had a main character called Excel Excel, who'd introduce herself as "First name Excel, Last name Excel, Or just Excel for short!" I loved that. So yeah excel_excel! Except I'm a guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZTF Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 ZTF stands for Zero the Fool. It comes from tarot (not Code Geass, which a lot of people assume). I find that I identify most with beginnings and potentiality, so it stuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizzenya Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Mine is from an awesome cutscene from Tenchu. I was watching my cousin play and the first cutscene I see has the most ridiculous voice acting. There doesn't seem to be a clip on youtube of it, but it goes something like this: "What is this Bizenya? There is more here than usual." "It is merely a token of our appreciation." After referencing that line religiously, my friends started calling me Bizenya, or Bizzy for short. The extra 'Z' was added because the name Bizenya is sometimes taken and I like to use the one alias to keep things simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VicariousShaner Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 I use the same user name for every thing I join, whether MMO, forum, or online gaming. Vicarious means in a nutshell, the same as. (ex.: As a awesome ghost, I was living vicariously through the eyes of some guy I possessed.) Also, Shaner is a nickname. Thus, VicariousShaner was born.

Jack Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 (edited) It is simply short for Jack O'Neill. The Jack part stuck, the O'Neill not so much. SycoJack is merely a marriage of my first screen name, Syco, with my more recent, Jack. Edited February 20, 2011 by Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gigawings Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 After a year without gaming and active online (my PS2 got stolen and my PC is kinda wonky) I finally able to buy PSP, NDS and a PS3, start posting in Kotaku (and finally here, TAY.G) so... yeah My name? I love to create names, I have tons of active emails and a couple of forums memberships, mostly with different names, I usually ended up with gibberish names and weird meaningless words for the passwords (I have tons of passwords too, sometimes my brain filing cabinet can get messy) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NekuSakuraba Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 I'm Neku Sakuraba. So, I choose NekuSakurba as my screen name. It wasn't taken. (HURRHURR.) No, but kidding aside, I've been lucky that it hasn't been taken (I made it in time before someone took it on Kotaku too) He's my favorite character and I felt a lot like him when I was younger so I made that 'connection' and...yeah. I also used to be in a TWEWY RP as Neku. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRevanchist Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 Named after Revan of Star Wars: Knights of The Old Republic. Star Wars Wiki says it best: "Once reunited with his disciples, Revan's campaign for Jedi intervention in the war against the Mandalorians continued, albeit somewhat differently than before. Whereas his efforts had previously been considered a curiosity at best, in the context of a larger Mandalorian War he suddenly found himself a celebrity. As the Revanchist movement behind him grew, the Republic media cast Revan in the role of crusading savior, wrongfully ignored by the aloof High Council. Though first referred to as "the Revanchist Leader" in reports, it was not long before the young Jedi Knight was given a new, "snappier" moniker: the Revanchist." Revanchism - definition: (Government, Politics & Diplomacy) a foreign policy aimed at revenge or the regaining of lost territories Hence, the character from my favorite game was named Revan. On a related note, BioWare was hacked today/last night. Now I need to change another password. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kovach_ Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 I, uhm... put a _ next to my last name. Yeah. I still think it's pretty cool for some reason tho. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturnine Tenshi Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 WHY AN UNDERSCORE!? WHY NOT xXx OR oxo!? OR KOVACHxTENSHI!? Saturnine Tenshi originated as kuraitenshi sometime back in '98 or '99. I used to be a heavy RP'er, and one of the folk I met through that allowed me to imbibe her Japanese tongue and... wait. That sounds much more appealing than what actually happened. I changed the kurai to saturnine because I'm a saturnine motherfucker. |: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kovach_ Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 WHY AN UNDERSCORE!? WHY NOT xXx OR oxo!? OR KOVACHxTENSHI!? Well, before this one, the name i was using is... better forgotten. So when i wanted to change, i was like, eh, let's go with Kovach, everyone calls me that anyways. But it was taken on this forum that i was going to regularly, and a friend was like "Just add something random to it lol". So yeah, underscore, cause it looked cool.
