Yesideez Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Yesideez - an ancient mythological being representing everything of pure evil and blackness.My email address I had years ago was @antisocial.com so yesideez at the start was quite fitting but an email address no longer in use due to spam being received became too much.My avatar came from the film "Human Traffic" and was a logo on a T-shirt.It just "fit" Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/19258-the-story-behind-your-username/page/9/#findComment-803318 Share on other sites More sharing options...

keldorn Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I like D&D styled games, My name is from a character called Keldorn Firecam in Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn. I liked the character becuase he embodies my personal morals. Honor and Good.

oni-kun Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Meh a lame name I have. oni-chan means brother in japanese (I'm not, but..) -kun is a suffix usually for males, so I disassociated it to oni-kun. Little did I know oni also meant demon, Someone on these forums actually explained it after I helped him, lol. Can't complain. Stuck with the name for 2 years now, domain, PSN account.. Â And are you referring to calling him "Presimo" in your head? I was doing that until I read the thread, LOL!

ignace Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 My nickname is my firstname and I chose it for it's convenience.  1) I don't have to bother thinking of names and what they will represent or mean, I usally also start to dislike them after a while and changing one nickname is a hassle (not all websites allow it)  2) Everyone knows my name and they know my "nickname" (friends can easily spot me) and I have no problem them seeing when I screw up (or succeed) atleast I'm trying  3) Everyone calls me by my name like I do with them (I don't believe in hierarchy, in life there are no > and < operators) Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/19258-the-story-behind-your-username/page/9/#findComment-983740 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon_R Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 holy crap it's true! if you add 317 to your current post count, you get... 456!!  That may be what's known as a 'special case' rather than universally applicable.  Whatever!! Being a creative genius, I decided to use my first name and the initial of my surname for my username here. Quite a story!!  Same story with andy just i put an underscore between them.

roopurt18 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 "As for other fantasy writing in general, I've enjoyed reading Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series (although there are a couple duds in there) as well as reading Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth books. I would like to see someone get license to do a couple of the better stories in either of those series, too."   Hrmm might have to look into those.  If Robert Jordan could have kept his thoughts organized the series would have been much better. The first few books in WoT were good. By the fourth one he had opened up so many sub-plots you couldn't keep track of them. I stopped reading after 6 or 7 books.

Lamez Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 My first name is James. If you take the J and turn it around, you get a L. Same with the S, turn it around you get a Z.

Tazerenix Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Thought up my name for a game called Endless Online (which has since died and i stopped playing it about a year ago). My original name was going to be Overmind (from starcraft) but i thought it to be too common so i thought up this. My name is actually a cross between Tassadar, Raynor and Fenix (from starcraft) but Taserenix sounded strange so i changed the s to a z. Thanks for reading xD Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/19258-the-story-behind-your-username/page/9/#findComment-1096127 Share on other sites More sharing options...
