Oh my god, all your storys were awesome... I've got to have the most boring story ever:
Well, I think I was nine to ten years old when I decided to get a nickname, keep it and then use it everywhere. I've been called many things before it (Including "MilkyWay" xD), until the cool name "Darwin" popped up in my head as a ten-yearold. At first it was "Darwin", then it became "D@rwin" and finally "D@rw!n" that I was called in many years. I actually changed it to "Dλrw!N" the very day before I joined this clan! And by the way , no it has nothing to do with Charles Darwin. Anyway I came up with it and I wanted it to contain those "cool" letters that everyone was using. Later on I found out that's just a bit annoying so I kept it pretty clean.
And now the name's proudly wearing "=(eG)=" in front of it's name! :')

I have been using Purple Huskies as a user name since 90s. University of Washington's mascot is a husky and the school colors are gold and purple. So combined UW Huskies and their team color, you get Purple.Huskies.

[quote1204919984=RESPAWN]
I was actually considering starting a thread to ask the same question. You get a cookie Moose for reading my mind.
Anyway, I chose my nick waaaay back when people still used 486s. Me and a friend used to dial in to each other via our modems (none of this cable/dsl junk back then) and death match each other in Duke Nukem 3D. Anyway, my poor old computer could barely handle the load and so I got killed a lot and spent a lot of time at the respawn points. It got to be a joke between us and so I just took the name RESPAWN and have stuck with it or a slight variation ever since. (Except for a brief period when I returned to Counter-Strike after a lengthy hiatus and played as Duke and had a bunch of my keys bound to Duke phrases that I would shout after killing somebody.)
Anyway, I only spend slightly less time at respawn points these days, but at least I can't blame my computer anymore. >.<

There's a similar story (Quake II on a 486DX2 anyone?) that ended up with me using the name "RetardMonkey" for a while, but I stuck with AfroNinja, 'cause that 's what everyone called me at the time... even at work. It was odd.
