[jhawker23]

I'd like to start a thread where you can explain your username. There are many times I wonder, why that name? Not to pick on any one person, but I have to ask, "DavidFehretysBike"? That is an interesting one...

I guess I should start but I think mine is pretty self-explanatory... I'm a University of Kansas Jayhawk, the 23 got added a long time ago because jhawker became a pretty popular username across the internet. So, the 23rd is my birthday. Haven't had a "used" username yet.

[Zeph]

I googled "cool names", found Zephyr, which I used initially, but shortened it by two letters. Hardly original, but it's stuck with me for many years now. Used it mostly for online gaming in the beginning.

[trog2233]

My nickname and some random numbers after...

[mrt10x]

MRT.. my initials, 10x = 10 x's in a pistol competition,, or 10 perfect bullseyes in a 10 shot string of fire, I used to shoot on the Marine Corps pistol team.. been using it for almost 20 years now.

[shades9323]

In high school I was addicted to oakleys. I almost had a pair for everyday of the week(5). I always wore a different pair on the golf course and earned the nickname "shades". Then some random numbers that yahoo threw in a long time ago for email.

[Dr. Strangeclub]

"Dr. Strangeclub or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Learned to Love the Game -- Sort of"

[nuck81]

Nuck has been my nickname for almost 20 years. I use the 81 since it's my birth year and it keeps me from getting "Username already used"

[zeg]

Made up the name "zegamorphos" for a MUD (text-based precursor to the MMORPGs of today) because it sounded good at the time (15 years ago). It was a bit long, though, so I shortened it, and zeg is a short nick that's usually available.

[alf174]

After my handmade Alfermann single barrel trap shotgun (#174) that has easily paid for itself in winnings.

[DarkPrince]

Old name I used to use when I plaid PC games like X-wing v. TIE Fighter, Counter-Strike, Medal of Honor...and so on :P Use it for most things, like my 360 gamertag is TAD Dark Prince, same with a few emails..etc, just something that stuck. Kinda funny that I also didn't realize it meant satan hahahaha.

[jamo]

Mine is just a nickname. I don't love it but everyone calls me it.

[CarlSpackler]

He's my hero.

[Meddle]

Meddle = my favorite Pink Floyd album
