[Pierre-Marie Baty]

coincidence...
what does "splorygon" stand for anyway ?

[sfx1999]

Let's turn this into a name origin thread.

My original nickname was going to be sfx1997 (sound effects then the year), but that was taken. So I made like car companies and turned it into 1998. Eventually I made it 1999 and held it there.

I was like 9 or 10 when I made the name.

[stefanhendriks]

i have had different nicknames. Though on forums i was so lazy i just put my first +lastname. So its 'stefanhendriks' since the very beginning of this freaking internet experience.

In games its always something different, though i like to have odd and stupid names. My nickname is now "Dumb"... With a friend of mine, his name is "Dumber"...

Funny thing is, wen we both join th eserver, other people rename themselves into "dumberer" or "more dumb".. i mean, come one! whats in a name?

[HangFire]

Mine used to be Khadgar, from Warcraft.

Then it was "Uzi", because it fit very nicely into arcade high score tables.

Then also when I was about 12 I changed it to HangFire. I got the name from an old post-apoc novel called "The Amtrak Wars". The book's main character had the code name of "HangFire", and I thought that the name really suited my temperment.

[TruB]

my first i used was blue raptor..

then
True Blitzer.. which turned into TruB.. i use Tru for arcades score tables..

[sPlOrYgOn]

splorygon is a put together of a few words...
the S stands for starcraft because I love it
the rest is a mix of...
polygon - I like math and was in geometry when I made the name..
explore - I loved exploring...
dragon - I like dragons and I was born in the year of the dragon

[Huntkillaz]

huntakillaz ,from playing starcraft 2 yrs back i first meet the hunter killers (elite zerg hydra's ) and they were awesome


so then i started using that name in cstrike\wc3 but it was too long to type so i shrunk it to huntakillaz


my alternative scarlet spider came from being a big fan of spiderman in my intermediate\ high skool yrs, but i liked the costume of the clone far better




and then i found this card which made me start using the name
