Story Behind Your Username

So I always come across some odd/unique usernames on forums and always wonder what it means to the user. So what does your username represent or mean?

Story Behind Mine:
Creativebot......best username I ever thought of honestly in the past 5 years of being on forums. As I got better in the design field I wanted to build a reputation on the internet with one name that was unique, professional and fun. When I was brainstorming names I came up with Creativebot. I am a "Creative" person and I like robots. In the sense I am a robot when online. Because I design computer graphics for users that live all over the world. Most of these people have never met me in person, or even know anything about me online, unless your in my social network ring.

Your turn! :yes:

Re: Story Behind Your Username

Well it was probably 5 years ago i made this name. It was when i used to play Counter Strike Source a lot, and i joined a clan called _Van1lla_. But basically straight away they disbanded, and i was left with the tag, i like the look of it so i changed my name to _Van1lla_. And basically over the past 5 years i've always had that on forums, but changing it to what it is currently. Now when i join a forum most people will know me. On some forums though my name is changing as i have changed my name on CSS. Its now Swish.uk. 😀

Re: Story Behind Your Username

I've only had mine for a few years now. I originally had the name Darkness back in the day (4 or 5 years ago) but after that name being taken on so many forums I switched to Ghost (it wasn't taken on many forums at all). From there I really took on the username, even school friends called me Ghost. I decided once I hit 18 i'd legally change my name to "Ghost" but I needed a first name. So I chose Leo. "Leo Ghost" will be my name once I turn 18 😛

I don't think you legally need to have two names. I may be wrong, but that's what I heard.

Re: Story Behind Your Username

@Jaosals
I don't think you do either, but it'd just be weird to have a single name, and "Ghost" is already a little weird. Don't need that much weird in my diet 😛

Re: Story Behind Your Username

Well... I have this bad habit of thinking up huge amounts of random names out of the blue.
I actually have a list. 😕
Anyway, I thought this name up awhile ago, I used it in a building challenge thing on another site, since then I have used this for everything from forum User-names, to game character names.

I don't get many birdies when I play...

But mine:

Anybody watch 24? Then you might know...My name comes from Agent Curtis Manning who worked at CTU (Counter Terrorist Unit) in the show. He was later killed by his buddy Jack Bauer.

Why did Jack kill him if they were buddies?
