Does your name have a reason or meaning behind it? Please explain.

[Gypsy]

My old clan was the JL (Justice League), so to join, I needed to find a superhero name. I wanted something a little less well-known than Wonder Woman, so I poked around a bit and found Gypsy. I've been Gypsy for so long that I didn't really see the need to change it when the JL folded up and I joined eGO.

 

[Dr3am]

my friends had an abstract name, so i thought of one and i came across Dream since it's quite nice. And because i've seen most people replacing e's with 3's, i did the same thing with mine.

 

[B00MB00MBenji]

A kid named Griffin at my school starting calling my Benji, since he thought I looked like a Benji, since I am Asian-American. I added B00MB00M to my name, since when I think of my name, I think of a explosion

 

[Vipers_Venom]

I've been gaming since the beginning of games with Viper, but then everyone and their brother started using it after the movie Top Gun came out, so I figured I needed to change it to be a little different. I got to thinking it's not really the snake everyone is terrified of as much as the deadly venom he's carrying, so since everyone should be terrified when they see me join the battlefield that's what I changed it to.

 

[TheJollyRoger]

I used to call myself Hannibal (as in the famous Punic general) when I only had HL2M and Rome:TotalWar. But as I bought more games, I decided to change the name to avoid confusion with Hannibal the Cannibal. Since my birthday is also Talk Like a Pirate Day, and since "TheJollyRoger" simply sounds like a cool game name, I choose it as the replacement.

 

[DurkSG]

Well I was gonna put TickleFight, since i like to tickle people while fighting. But a former member said either to pick Tickle or Fight. So I chose Fight. And I also chose Fight just because I hurt Lots of People.!!

 

[oH HorizoN x]

Well, as I'm sure most of you have experienced, my username has been quite a few things over the years I've been on the internet and gaming.

Started out back in the Halo 2 online days when I first got LIVE, as X MC SPARTAN X. The MC stood for Master Chief. Quite the creative 12 year old, wasn't I?

Then I discovered GMod and CS:S shortly after, and on Facepunch forums my name was (and still is, I suppose) MasterChef. This was my online name for the longest time.

Only in the past couple of years did I start using HorizoN, Oh Hey HorizoN, or similar. My most recent XBL name change was oH HorizoN x, and that's what I used when I had to have one name for eGO. It started actually when I was a big fan for Bring Me The Horizon for a couple months, but after that I thought it just sounded cool as a name. Hah!

 

[Zero711]

Zero from Megaman has always been my favorite character and seemed like a cool name, even if its fairly common. To differentiate I tacked on my birthday, July 11th 1993, 71193, or 711 for short. Nothing special.

 

[PepperRabbit]

I'll explain how my name came to be in a commentary I'll release by the end of the week.

 

[Raul Tha Monk]

I use to play guild wars it was my live i had more then 3,000 hours on it and i followed a guildie here and then i joined

 

[PBJ]

Party Beast Jake. #nerdy

 

[Slazenger]

Slazenger is the brand of golf ball that is used in the James Bond movie "Goldfinger". I'm a huge 007 nerd...and as such - I thought it was a perfect name. It's easy to find a short version, "Slaz", and it just sounds cool!

 

[koolaid]

i wore red shirts all the time then i got called koolaid and thats why im koolaid OH YEAH

 

[Chuck Norris]

<-------- pretty obvious one....

 

[stewie574]

i'm an evil genius...well, maybe not a genius. my real life name is relatively close to stewie, so some people started calling me stewie!

as for the numbers, they have no meaning whatsoever. when i was making an account for Xbox LIVE, i wanted to add some numbers to my name, so i just put in the first 3 numbers that popped into my head. thus, 574

 

[Believer]

Contrary to popular opinion, I am not a Justin Bieber fan (don't get me started). I'm a Christian so the name describes me well.

I used to go by "Marine4God" a while back but changed it to avoid confusion (I've never been in the Corps, but chose the name originally to honor my grandfather who was a WWII/Korea vet).

Cheers!

[Garlick Brad]

Before I was born my brother who was like five or six at the time had never heard of the name "Bradley" so he kept calling me Bramble and the name just stuck.

G stands for "Garlick", my surname.

 

[Lucas15]

Although I asked the question, there really isn't a meaning behind either of the names I use--Lucas15 and Archada?. For Lucas15, it's just my name and age. For Archada?, I was just trying to make a unique name and I somehow came up with it. The trademark symbol made it look better, so I just added it on.

 

[mdgrim]

1st initial, middle initial, and last name, simple as that lol
