Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1576 Joined: 25 Nov 2007   | I used to go by the nickname Lone Wolf, because I liked wolves and I was a loner. (Goodness, how creative.) But once upon a time, I happened upon a laser-tag place and wanted to become a member. Sadly, Lone Wolf was taken. Stumped for an alternative, I looked over at their arcade machines, and saw X-Men vs. Street Fighter... featuring Rogue as one of the characters. Honestly, I'm usually a lot more creative than that. |

Yeah, I originally came up with Razavn for XBL, now I use it for every username (including the PSN and it is part of my e-mail address too). |

My username is "greenphalcon" and at some point I could only use the first half (name too long or something idk) but had the second half prepared. Sent "green" through various translators and latin had a cool sounding name. |

Yeah I think srkkl is pretty stupid, it was actually a mistake because I was having trouble setting up my account and didn't expect it to cost 10 bucks to change so I put somthing random, I kept it because It's pretty damn original. |

Sure it makes sense. To you. Mama manaman played a big part in me picking a name. Or I might have just picked something that I might have been using as a name since 1996. Or not. |

Hey guys, I searched this and the last time this topic was posted upon was in August. If it is all right with you guys I would like to start the thread of where/how you came up with your username. If you believe this is an overdone topic than just don't post.
My username came from a misspelled character in a book I was reading. The character's name was Razvan and misspelled it and put it down as Razavn. I have never corrected the "mistake" and it is nice in the fact that it sound cool (relatively) and that I never have to worry about anyone else has the same username. So anyway what made you come up with your username?
