Why the Handle?

Reid · Jun 22nd, 2003, 03:34 PM

Why did everyone here pick the handle/username that they did?

Mine's story is pretty dry; Reid's my first name so it was an obvious pick.

How about everyone else?

trunks69420 · Jun 22nd, 2003, 04:43 PM

At the time i was really liking trunks from dbz... and the numbers well... you can guess that... 69 for sex stuff and 420 for mary jane

Chara · Jun 22nd, 2003, 04:56 PM

Mines is because Charizard is my favorite pokemon and the a is at the end because a is the first letter of the lphabet and I'm always first.

Hylas · Jun 22nd, 2003, 05:13 PM

Hylas is a character from a myth, but I started liking the name after seeing a painting at an exhibition called "Hylas and the nymphs". Hylas is a male character, but since I like the name, I don't really mind

Gadzoox · Jun 22nd, 2003, 06:34 PM

I was watching my favourite show 'The Oblongs' and Bob said something along the lines of "Gadzoox this is thrilling!" as I was signing up, so I used that!

DSgamer · Jun 22nd, 2003, 06:39 PM

jeez, can u guess why i chose my name??

kittens&cats · Jun 22nd, 2003, 08:10 PM

well for me it because i totally love cats and kittens they are
so cute little animals

Azuma_Ninja · Jun 22nd, 2003, 08:57 PM

About the time I was signing up I had just completed Tenchu WOH. Since it's one of my fav game series I thought it only natural to chose the name that I did. I bring honor to the Azuma clan.

Really ? Hm, that's a cool name you've got there, then

.

Anyway, "Mena", as was the original name I picked (and the one most still refer to me as :o), is short for my first name. Well, it's supposed to be.

ZeroSniper... erm- well, I don't really know. Zero (from megaman) has always been my favorite from the series and sniper because I can actually snipe pretty well (in games that is O.o). So, yeah; I put the two together and voila !

Redpyramidhead · Jun 23rd, 2003, 02:36 PM

I used one of my favorite antagonists/villain from any game. Nothing in terms of enemies in a videogame had been more awe-inspiring or depressing to me than the infamous Pyramid Head from Silent Hill 2 as he is called before. And well, not only does James refer to him as a "red pyramid head thing" but also it sounds even cooler with red in front and it's a creepy color

that can imply so many things.

_RED_ stuff

Vicious_2003 · Jun 23rd, 2003, 05:27 PM

I am obsessed with Cowboy Beebop and and I wanted to pay homage to the gretest anime ever created. Also my dads really. really, really, really, insanely, religious . I havent lived with him since I was like 3 , he left my mom and had 5 kids with a different lady. All the kids he had are deeply religious (Because they were tought to be) and largly because of my resentment towards him im not. So in a figurative way I feel like His little fallen angel forced from heaven through him leaving, and they all kind of look at me as this urban bad kid (The Demon i have become) . Anyway its not really THAT deep at first I just thought the name sounded cool, it wasnt till after thinking about it that I realised how it related. The 2003 part is just there because someoen allready had Vicious. I hate putting numbers after my names so I just use the year .

Deathwatchz · Jun 24th, 2003, 03:04 AM

I picked my name cuz i just keep the thought of mortality in my mind. It allows me to ignore the fear of death. "Knowing that death watches stops you from looking over your shoulder for him" basically.. Originally, i had picked the name cuz reaper was gone, but it was deathwatch, then the z got added on cuz i joined a chat group the "z-soldiers", and after that, i just changed it to deathwatchz rather than deathwatch-z. ah well, i like the name.

Meiko · Jun 25th, 2003, 07:17 AM

Meiko is a character from the manga "Marmelade Boy", which I liked a lot when I was younger. She was my fave character from that series.

Beretta55 · Jun 25th, 2003, 12:23 PM

Mine is really quite simple my fave handgun is the Beretta. The numbers 55 meant something at the time but i dont know what it means now.

Carlito · Jun 25th, 2003, 12:23 PM

From the movie Carlito's Way. Obviously

MakgSnake · Jun 25th, 2003, 02:11 PM

My name's initials are MAK.G and I am a big fan of Solid Snake. So thats why MakgSnake (Its no rocket science).

But the next time I create a username. It'll be "The 7th Killer" I like that or "Please Do Die"..... or "Your Diluted Snake"..

Nelo Angelo · Jun 25th, 2003, 02:20 PM

Because Nelo Angelo owns all obviously.

Duh.

merylsilverburg · Jun 25th, 2003, 02:50 PM

Mine's a no-brainer. I really liked Meryl Silverburg from MGS and was sad that she wasn't going to be in MGS2. So, I decided to pick this name to remember her, in a way.

Cannibal Clown · Jun 25th, 2003, 07:20 PM

I didn't even pick my name. SSSnake did. It didn't really matter, considering the fact that i was just going to spam and see how long it was going to take for me to get banned, hoping to beat my last time of 6 days as FlatlinerClownboy2001, which was also made by SSSnake. After a while i began to like these forums, so i stayed, and kept my name. Everyone here just calls me CC anyways. I don't like clowns, and don't eat really red meat unless i'm at a fancy restautant. So the cannibal part is odd too.

Pu the Owl · Jun 26th, 2003, 09:38 AM

This is not my usual handle. Everywhere else I use Pu or Panuru. Fortune is only for the PS2Fantasy.com community. Having to pick something suitable for a videogaming site, I wanted to use a name from a videogaming character I like (Fortune from MGS2).
