Why your user name?

The reasoning behind mine should be fairly obvious.

well, the variations of my name were taken(maybe not all of them, but i didn't try all of them), so i went for something that's still me or about me or fits with my life in some other way. this short version of one of the Hebrew names was what ended up being used. i used it in some other website since then, too.

My initials.

My previous username was just my initials (cbh) which I liked because it was just short and to the point, but I eventually fancied a change.

Started using Ellert and Ellert0 long ago despite it not being my name. Had to decide on a username for school computers back when I was only about 11 years old and I didn't want to use my name but I did want to use something similar so I went with Ellert, and because we needed to have numbers in our name I added a 0 to the end and my username is usually Ellert0, not entirely sure why I set my name to being purely Ellert here when I signed up, maybe it felt cleaner at the time.

I started using this name ages ago, I took my own name changed it a little, added some stuff to make it sound even more bad-ass and that is that.
I am also a huge fan of Warhammer so I wanted it to sound a little bit like the name of a Chaos Lord.

No idea really. I made it up eight years ago and have been using it for everything ever since.

To be honest, my online friends just call me by my actual name now. I find it odd when somebody I've known a while calls me EvilFish.

Because I like Syd and I like Floyd, but prefer Barrett's Floyd over Waters' or Gilmour's Floyd...besides it sounds cooler this way.

It is obviously because you are Irish, that makes you evil (don't deny it), you are also the son of Aquaman, thus your name is EvilFish, the "1" is obviously because you are the first Irish son of Aquaman.

I'm sorry for revealing your secret.

Dark Reaper Assualt and Recon Squad is my full name, I was working on a comic book that had that name in it but I stop working on it. It was also the same story that I came up with other name that I use online SBCMarine (Special Battlion Command: Marine Corps Division) . Yeah----I'm a Tom Clancy type of guy B).

I created a PS3 user 2007 called Gorbad and have used that name ever since. Later, I began to add in PS3 to point out that I was the "Gorbad from PS3". :D On some forums I use Gorbad, on others GorbadPS3.

Gorbad shouldn't happen to be inspired by Gorbad Ironclaw?

Well, my name is Ergin, and back when I was much younger I added the "ho" to the end because that is what many great football players do.

It's been ages since I came up with it though, and the name sorta lost its meaning way back then for me. Now it just stuck with me and I'm using it everywhere.

This name is unique to these boards. Waste Ranger is a rank in FO3. I had an account before this but I lost it somewhere along the lines.

Something about being the half-human half-crow hybrid leader of the Crowatian Empire.

It was either that or I somehow ended up with Crow in my XBL username (I think it was Screeching Crow or something but that might have been the second iteration) and eventually moved to Lord Crow. Then I moved to Squidpunk because Ika Musume is amazing. Then to Squarecrow because crows are cool and I thought it was clever. Except I can't change my username and I'm too lazy to start a new account.

How did I get Crow in my XBL username? No clue. Name generator maybe?

I thought you got your user name from the Dragon Age's Antivan Crows.

Mine was because it's my name. :P Well not my name, but that's what most of my family/friends call me.

It's just what I've been using as my online name, so I stick with it.

I had a dog once - a malamute. When it came time to sign up for something I couldn't think of a decent username, so I looked out the window for inspiration. Now "malamute" isn't a particularly great name but she had a fresh bone at the time. I was inspired by the rather savage way she was eating it, leading to the name that I use now.

Which in hindsight is a bit cliche and boring, but what thirteen-year-old ever picks a decent username.

I'm legendary, and I grew up with an NES. Bada bing, bada boom.

Ok, actually it's the title of a song I really enjoy from an artist named Lo Key.
