I have a big dragon tattoo on my upper left shoulder. For probably a decade prior to joining eGO, my online gaming name was “DragonDude”. You know, the Dude with the Dragon.
Call of Duty 4 does not support names that long, so I had to shorten it to DragonD. That’s when I stumbled into one of the eGO servers, and found a home.

That’s the true story. The alternate version... is that I’m plowing my garden, one row at a time.
 
I have a big dragon tattoo on my upper left shoulder.

That's actually pretty cool.

Nothing too special about my name. I love anime and C.C. from the series Code Geass is one of my favorite characters. Being an immortal witch is a pretty cool guy. She's lived for hundreds of years and doesn't afraid of anything.
 
Well I used to game with the name "Activate your Purchased Game!" But, when I left my old clan, I registered on the eGO website with 'Activate.' Little did I know, your in-game and steam name had to be the same. So I made my steam name Activate, and I've come to like it better. Now I'm here :D!
 
Mine is a nickname I've had all my life. It's a shortened version of my name.
 
I just thought it sounded cool. Same with the old 964 part.

come at me.
 
Middle school I was short so my friends called me shorty or shortstuff. When I first started playing wow both of those were taken so I added lil to the beginning but since wow only allows 12 characters in names I ended up with one f. It stuck.
 
When I was playing game called Combat Arms back at 7th grade, my best friend's user name was SeoulxD(Capital of South Korea) so I was thinking of making it KoreaxD but a and x makes it look like it's suppose to be connected so I but _ which made it Korea_xD
 
Back in WoW my character name was "Shivn". I chose the name "Shivn" because after I slamed my hands on the keyboard, it looked like something I could make a cool sounding name out of. I then joined a guild and they just called me "Shiv" So when I made my alt, I tried to make it "Shiv", but it was a no go. So I made it "Theshiv" But if I can control it, "TheShiv" looks better.
 
A few reasons for the name: One, it has similarity to my last name. Two, a buddy I used to work with would call me by it. Three, the Ferrari Scaglietti.:thumbup1:
 
Simple, My name is Matt, I used to have a Cat ^^ The cat has since gone on to bigger and better things, but the name still sticks
 
I saw a guy on office a couple minutes before I made my eGO app, it was waffles, so hence, I was wafflesandsyrup, then waffles!
 
mine is off the musical group back in early 2000s

"Kazoo" is a nickname given to me by Meep. It's not a nickname of my real name but of my alias "Kasai Kazan", which means Fire Volcano in Japanese. (I'm not Japanese. I just used to be a huge fan of anime/manga and Japan.)
 
since i started gaming i chose joepski as my account name dont know why but just kept using it i think its better then killerman52181920 or something like that
 
Most games I've played many users have long complicated names. They are usually 2 words are more. I like one simple single word that is abstract. "Script" fit the criteria :)
 
Tribes 2, wanted to be a sniper.
Snipe + eye = Snipeye
See what I did there?
 
When I was first signing up for Xfire my name was LukeoftheIrish because my name is Luke and I'm Irish (I live in Minnesota) Later when I was signing up for Gmail and Steam I shortened it to Lukeirish. Most people say Luke r ish now Uma and Manason call me Lukerfish. :P
