How did you choose your nickname? Why?

Cheezyshooter. Because I'm was a noob, believe it or not, that could shoot straight. I also told cheezy jokes. Therefore I came up with Cheezyshooter, but of course, most people just call me Cheezy which is just as awesome.
 
My brother enjoyed playing DoD:S like 7 years ago with bots, and the bots were named Bot1, Bot2, Bot3, etc. So, being the ingeniously clever rascal I was, I changed my steam name to Bot14 to blend in with these bots, and joined his LAN server in an attempt to kill him several times. I'm not quite sure whether this endeavor was a success or a miserable failure (most likely the latter), but the name stuck and here I am today.
 
I remember it came from the second online game i played named Ragnarok Online (most of you might not know what it is). In year 2003 when my classmate invite me to play it and i don't know if it's coincidence or intended two of them were using Z as their initial for the user ID. I decided to use Z as my user ID initial too and *poof* Ziant is what i came up.
Since then, i began using Ziant as my user ID on every game whether it's online or offline.
 
I chose Halloween because I love the Halloween and Disneylands Halloween themed rides etc.
 
Armorix came back when i started playing wow. It wasn't even the first name i used. lol I Liked the way it sounded and rolled off the tongue. Now it seems It is a lot more original then i thought, seeing as i've been able to get it in every online game I've played.
So it became my name on the Internet and all online games. :3
 
Before the name-change:
Ragman because I'd wear my clothes until they were rags

Narh:
Mispronunciation of one of my WoW characters, and It stuck.
 
My brother came up with my name cause he use to have the Steam account I have now. I just took it after he stopped using it. I have no idea how he came up with it and I've kept it ever since!
 
I'm in PMS (Pandora's Mighty Soldiers)before I joined eGO and I'm a fan of Bleach.
 
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOtEdhKOMgQ"]This is my favorite scene from a movie[/ame]
 
Real name is Adam, means roughly "of red earth". "Red earth" is close to "red stone," which can roughly be translated to German as "rote Stein".
 
i chose my name because back in 98 i was starting to get into linux. i though the mental image of a deranged and rabid penguin was pretty comical.

back then planetquake had a leet name generator that would take the name you put in and convert it to leet speak, you could also dial in the amount of leetness you wanted. I thought that it was funny that they had a leetness level where it changed almost nothing. so i changed the g to a q.
 
I chose the name Toxin in a MMO I played before eGO was around but the name was taken so I added an extra x = Toxxin. So when I came here I kept the extra x in the name Toxxin to make Idol think I was a girl.
 
It's a part of my real name in my native language (norwegian) translated to english. Turned out pretty good :)
