The origins of your name

Well, you see... When I was born I received a name, and this would be it :3
 
My original name (Benzene) came from when I was studying chemistry and thought it sounded cool.

My current name comes from the Morrow Days (Mr. Monday, Grim Tuesday, Drowned Wednesday, Sir Thursday, Lady Friday, Superior Saturday and Lord Sunday), a group of supremely powerful, semi-deific beings from the Keys to the Kingdom series by Garth Nix. They're kids books, but have some very adult concepts and tone.

Plus they're just the coolest books I've ever read, settings wise. I feel like the author just sat around thinking up cool names and found ways to fit them into the story (and it worked).
 
In college, I won a nearly flawless victory over my opponent in the finals of a Super Smash Bros. Melee tournament. Somebody in the vicinity said my playing was god-like and I, being of great humility, adopted that name in Latin, one of the languages I was studying in college.
 
Well, I was watching Avatar: The Last Airbender heard the name "Kuzon" and thought it sounded cool!

Yeah thats about it

I like these books too - actually, I like everything I've read that Garth Nix has written.
 
My first name was from Runescape, i was trying to think of a cool name for my character and i thought Zelda was pretty cool.
So i made it manlier and changed it to Zortha.

Later on, and after many "RS GFS" i learned that name was weird and not attractive.

So i started playing xbox now, and oblivion was the coolest game ever. So i named my xbox account after Azora.

For the longest time i stayed with Azora until one day i was on a GMOD server and i was trolling in a Fallout New Vegas: Roleplaying server hosted by -[XR]- and they kicked me, and kept kicking me.

So i changed my name to my favorite singer/songwriter's name Dan Hunter. (PlayRadioPlay!, AnalogRebellion)

It just kind of stuck.
 
Clavietika is a character from a story written to accompany The Mars Volta's album De-Loused in the Comatorium.
I started using it in gaming years ago and it kind of just stuck.
 
Well I watched a movie called FlyBoys, about WWI and on the headsquadrons planes (both the first one who died on a suicide mission and requested the 2nd one had it painted on) Was the words "JeVoisTout" with a bald eagle and under it said "A snake deserves no pitty" JeVoisTout stood for "I see everything" so I took that as my name. 2 1/2 weeks into eGO I saw it was hard for people to pronouce my name so I decided to get a name change into StormChaser, something else that I'm crazy enough to play with life threatening things.

One of my favorite authors for a long time. Some of his more recent books have been disappointing though.
 
Started off as Gundum on Xbox OG (I heard the name Gundam from somewhere, and changed the letter).

Then I got into WoW and Became RedRider.

I wanted to make an Alt warrior but what to name him?
Well, I took the first two letters of my first name, and the first of my last which made ANG. My guild at the time was Orion's hope(Which is now By The Way).
Angorion? Nope. Took the I out and the name stuck.

(I added an 0 to my tf2 name because B4nny has a number. I like b4nny).
