I spotted the name in a TF2 video online somewhere and thought it was hilarious.

Also I love puns.

 

[Capital Orange]

umm..

i don't even know honestly

 

[Angoron]

I actually have a story for this!

I was actually Red Rider for a while when I played WoW, in a guild names Orion.
I needed a new name, so I took the first two letters of my name (Andrew), and the first of my last, and got Ang, and then wondered what else I needed. I decided to add my guild name into it, making it Angorion, but that just didn''t look right, so I took the i out, and I got Angoron!

 

[VP :3]

I was originally HaloHalo, which was from my love for the Halo franchise since I was in Kindergarten. Then, it became ViciousPopTart, which was my Xbox Live gamertag. It then switched to VP-77 when I met some guy on the CSS Jail server and we became buds, and he was IG-88, like that robot from Star Wars. A few months ago I decided to drop the -77 because everybody just called me VP, so it became VP :3. The End.

My brother first told me the VX was supposed to represent the roman numeral 15

No, No, No.

VX would be 5, since V is 5 and X is 10.

15 would be XV.

As for me:

First real online name:
4th grade, signing up for runescape, coming up with a name Maciej ( my real name - Polish for Matthew ) the Killer, it not fitting into RS, shortening to maciejkiller.

Years later, MW2 mod hosting, came up with Polish ( cuz poland ) Snipa ( cuz somewhat good at snipping )

Finally, less than a year ago, messing around on gmod with a friend ( Pride the Arrogant ), came up with Humility the Humble, then shortened to Humility.

 

[Nix]

No, No, No.

VX would be 5, since V is 5 and X is 10.

15 would be XV.

VX isn't a roman numeral at all. If you went to ancient Rome and asked for VX apples, they would wonder why an uneducated, strangely dressed, illiterate fellow was wandering the streets of Rome.

 

[Idol]

My parents gave me this name. My brother is named Icon. He's also a moai.

I was originally HaloHalo

I was wondering where that guy went. He was cool then he just dissappeared. I thought maybe I banned him.

A giant extinct flightless bird native to Oceania?

Look, I never said it was right. It's just what my brother told me when we were kids.

 

[Skooze]

Not really much of a story. I've been using GreazyMeal (or grezymeal back in the irc days and 8 char usernames) since the mid-90s. Greazy Meal was/is this awesome local Minneapolis band that I used to go and see a lot when I was living in Minnesota. Great music, interesting name, funky. The name just has sort of stuck around since then online in games, irc, IM, etc. Most people assume it has to do with food or bacon or fat, but it is more about that Greazy feeling you get from funky, soulful, jazzy music.

No, a giant inanimate statue of a head native to Easter Island

I figured, lol.

 

[Gerbil]

Mine's not very crative...
Back when I played Club Penguin, I needed a name. Puliping is a mix on my Real Name (Paulo) with my favorite sport, at that time (Ping Pong, a.k.a. Table Tennis). My mother was typing it in for me, but she never was the best at that.
Basically: Paulo+PingPong+BadTyping=Puliping

Spoiler

Some people think it's Name+BadTyping+BadPing.

Hey I remember that game my name there was Penguistic, some kind of weird play on words with penguins and fantastic

[smitty2213]

Well everyone one day at school started calling me Smitty and since my two favorite number were 22 and 13, I added them all together by magic and wahla!!! Smitty2213 was formed.

 

[Vinyl.]

Origin - My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

Why I kept this name - It was better than the rest of the names I've made, plus I love EDM. I'm pretty interested in Vinyl discs continuing to be used for recording and listening this year.


I'll never add "scratch". Ever.

 

[Clavietika]

Clavietika Tres Ojos is a character from a story written to accompany The Mars Volta's album De-Loused in the Comatorium.
I started using the name Clavietika in gaming years ago (primarily in WoW and when I first signed up for Steam) and it kind of just stuck (read: lazy).

 

[SKYLINEGTR]

I hate SkylineGTR's, so I chose to have my name as SkylineGTR.

KTHXBYE!

Oh nah, that guy had a bad laptop. It was atrocious, I heard.

 

[Ledzo]

Led Zeppelin is my favourite band.
