Can you explain your Username?.. **Official**

[stncttr908]

I'm sure everyone has seen The Simpsons episode with the Stonecutters (who keeps the martians under wraps?). So, I made this name up well over 5 years ago when I was a complete computer n00b. My first ISP was (ugh) AOL. At that time, screennames were limited to 10 characters. Stonecutter numbers were ranked in numerical order, Homer was #908. So there you have it, I removed the vowels to make it fit. I've used it since, and thankfully have long since ditched AOL and moved to my yummy cable connection.

I've used this username for everything since 96.
Back the I didn't understand computer and didn't even know what windows was.
Sure enough, I knew of macintosh because my school had a bunch of those so I tried to use it for my hotmail account.
But somebody had already used it, so... machintos it is. Till now

[GimpTG]

It stands for Gimp the Great, back in the day, as many know, you were limited to 7 characters for a sign on, thus the abbreviation.
I just made up the name in high school, kind of an oxymoron.

[optimistic]

I'm really bad at making up names, so when I sign up for internet accounts- it's really tough for me.

My name? It was what was playing on Winamp when I resgistered for AT two years ago... Radiohead - Optimisitc!

Hey it's my two year anniversary~! Go me!

This thread is so long.. Not sure if I've already posted. :Q

my new nick is the name I use everywhere. it's my real name, (Craig) and I drive an R/T (the name originated from car related message boards) so i thought it was better being as it was more functional. so I had it changed here too.

[chizow]

Chizow is my frat nick...picked it up my freshman year in Cancun and it stuck. Its my universal s/n nowadays and has gotten nice mileage in various online games and ladders. I also go by Chiz- with a variable ending to suit the game or to use in games with multiple character names (ie. Chiz-Falco, Chiz-Draco etc. in Diablo2 HC).

[forkd]

I set up an email account for my little sister about 9 years ago and her name is Katie. for K-d.

Most people think it is something dirty but that is very far from the truth.

I once spoke with a friend about why she never responds when I try to IM her and we figured out that she didn't know who this forkd guy was and it sounded like a name of someone up to no good. lol

 

[KROME]

when i was younger i use to tag and Krome was my "tagger" name

[clicknext]

I was looking for a good username on some service, forgot which one, and every one I could think of was taken, and then I saw at the bottom of the page it said "click next to continue" so I was like... hm, clicknext, sounds good.

 

[Emveach]

Easy. My real name is Michael V Haynes. The initals are MVH. Sound them out and type them how they sound, and you get Em-ve-ach.
