Chemistry and delicious mexican food.

I wanted nachos as a screen name but wanted to make it look cool by having those names that have conjoining letters. I turned to the periodic table. Halon stuck out and beat carbonachos by a slim margin.

Mine is my Xbox Live username, so I just used it again. Since I'm an aspiring writer it seemed appropriate.

Same as wannabe writer above. Should you ever see Cryonicleech, it is me in one of my many guises. MWAHAHAHAHAHA!

It roughly is "Frozen Leech" but whatever. I like the souund of it.

I used to call a friend of mine Benio. this evolved into Barlio for myself which is a play on my last name.

mine means i am purple... despite that is a lie.

I like back to the future, and wanted a name like mclovin from superbad.
Little did I know there was a band with that name....

Mine is the name I use for most of my online accounts, I like most stuff mythological and so this one seemed to work.

People call me cougar, because my last name is coogan and i'm a big dude... the logic doesn't make sense to me either but thats how it was explained to me...

People at school call me OC-D because its my intials. It also (hilariously) stands for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Because of the uniqueness of my name an intitials I put 'the' in front of it, therefore 'theocd'. Not 'theo cd' which a lot of people call me and then I get confused on forums like this one.

The OC-D

was my first inquisitor model and best painting I'd ever done, I knew it was sad back then but needed a name for warcraft or something like that and kinda stuck somehow. Online it always seems to be taken however 84 (year of birth) isn't. Surprise surprise I guess.

I smile while I kill you.

sA

as you disd before assasin,

Gaming tag. It was originally to be Gandar named after a character in a Playstation One RPG called Valkyrie Profile (which is exceedingly rare and expensive) I highly recommend any RPG fan find and play it. Well, the name was taken so I added an "i". Since then I've stuck with it.

Gaming name I have used for about 17 years.

Mine is the name of my first Baldurs Gate character, since I have used the name on most of my game profile or forum nicks

Shinigami means god of death in japanese, and there are a lot of them in Death Note, the anime, which I love.

I am relatively young and I have blood inside of my veins.

I first created it for a Rogue in WoW, but since it's got such a good rhyme, I've stuck with it. It's also (almost) my gaming tag (first place someone already had it!)

Also, I always cheer up when someone calls my name lame

Mine was actually my old school username whilst i was there:

99 - Year I joined
M - my first name initial
Deery - my last name

I use it because its simple so I won't forget it, that and I dont think i've ever seen someone with same username as me.

The OC-D

oooh i thought it was a reference to a tv programme called The OC... as its apprently addictive so i though The OC-D was an amusing pun.

Mine was a nickname for me by my sports teacher.
I remember it so it stuck.

i was working with a friend on a project about WWII and our subject was propaganda posters. he had a pic of a soviet one that was supposed to motivate the workers. the word on the poster that referred to the workers was manworker (thats singular).

i dont know why i use it it just stuck. i use it for every thing now steam xfire COD everthing gaming. the only variation is manworker1 since my first steam account got banned for hax (im slowed)

Mine is the amount of juice the American penal system uses in their electric chairs.

Mine just came to me. Don't really know what it means...

I made up this name when I first started to play Runescape when it first came out, I was hungry when i made it. (and looking back, i wasted so much of my life on Runescape lol)

again i thought this was a pun on the song "johnny be good"

A nickname I got in high school for not taking crap and kicking too many men in the... well... you know

hmm..... my username........

My nickname was given to me by a good friend of mine. Its from the early Smackdown Vs Raw games on PS2. We looked through all the names you could pick for the announcer to .. erm .. announce, and thats the one he thought suited me, since then I've been the Hells Guardian for everything regarding electronics

Mine is based off a story I had written named "The Vermilion Butterfly", loosely based off of one of my favorite Slipknot songs, Vermilion and its video...

Ever since that, I've been using that name for everything... from screen names, to display names on websites. And obviously, here too.
