[Derock]

I never explain mine? Wow, that's so weird of me...

But anyway, on this site when I first got all serious on the interent with my laptop, my original username here was "Kenson" (Remember that name, old members?) How I got the name, well, back when I was in high school, I liked Sonic the Hedgehog and Rurouni Kenshin so much, I decided that combining the first 3 letters of Sonic and Kenshin's names together (It wasn't until years later I found out it was a REAL name that scare the s*** out of me). But then, the name was getting old here after a couple of months of visiting this site that I decided that I use my nickname from real life in here, "Derock", just to show my true nature.

[Torxe]

The meaning behind mine is a bit lame and farfetched (Hey, I was only 14y when I thought it up)

Somehow the sentence Tormented into the extreme got stuck in my head.

this already shows how I get to this yes?

But when I already used this nick I found out that torque is a word that actually exists => a couple of powers (the pulling and pushing motion you exercise to rotate a screw) So basically It's getting tormented to the extreme by a couple of powers

Yeah it's lame I know, let me know what you think of it. The meaning behind it is not smthng I explain to a lot of people irl because they'll probably laugh perhaps this could help me over that

irl they just call me by my first name "Nico" or my best friends by my last name "Verbeeke"

The 2nd nick (the one under my self-proclaimed title of the World's greatest critic) I dare to use in MMORPG where you can have more than one character,
most of the time that one is an orc (if possible)

It means Bringer of Ragnarok as far as I know(/learned from playing age of mythology) the Vikings considered Ragnarok being what we now call the end of the world or the apocalypse or all the things in that direction you get the point.

[Fox-And-Flower]

When I first joined none of the names I wanted were available, lol. I wanted to incorporate my favorite animal in my name at the time, but then I remembered a narusaku fan fiction I read, so I just ended up calling myself Fox and Flower (naruto and sakura) lol
Though everywhere else, I'm known as vixen, memo or Nadia

[KonaKonaFan]

Well...when I first joined here I had the username "TheTripleK", because of my Fanfiction.net username, konata1keyblade1kunai. After I made my first post here, someone pointed out the, um... unfortunate implications that username brought to mind, so I just used the first name I could think of, "KonaKonaFan". It kind of stuck.

[alexander]

When I joined I had beaten the video game prototype very recentely, so I was on a high fever that time, so I decided to use the main protagonist name, Alex mercer gotta be one of my favourite game character, no other real reason beyond that tough.

[Grace]

I wonder where my name could have possibly come from. The world will never know.

XD



Once Kushina was "officially" introduced in the manga (y'know, when she thwaps her son on the head?), I felt like she and I were fairly similar.
And it doesn't hurt that the name sounds pretty~

[Cupcake-chan]

My username "cupcake-chan" comes from my love for cupcakes, and the "chan" is to specify that I'm a girl, coz with my old username I was confused as a male (I don't really know how) in LC, so I decided to change it XDDD
But yeah.... that's how this username surged.

[Muffins?]

I got my name from the shortened version of my regular internet alter ego, Muffins&MaryJane. I came up with this nickname when I was smoking Marijuana (Yes legally, I have a medical license.) and got the munchies, I happened to stop at a Starbucks and I bought muffins there. Ever since that fateful day I have eaten muffins every time I have gotten the munchies and for some reason decided to incorporate it into my usernames.

[Kyuudaime]

Meh, I was a member of a different forum with a username that was too long and I didn't really care for. After about a year of helping the community I got selected for modship and upon gaining it, I decided to make my a new username that looked at least a little more professional. I figured if Nidaime meant 2nd hokage, Sandaime meant third hokage and Yondaime meant the fourth hokage, then Kyuudaime would probably mean the ninth. Something I sort of stick with when trying to make my username, despite knowing there will be arses who assume I'm Asian on XBL.

[ShippudenGirl]

Well, interesting story. I have... no idea... I think it was because Shippūden meant "Hurricane Chronicles" and that sounded awesome so, yeah. Obviously it is after Naruto ^^ I usual use this username for everything!

Same here, "Ohh he must be a Japanese" "What does that stand for" sighs

[Kyuudaime]

Same here, "Ohh he must be a Japanese" "What does that stand for" sighs

Lol, people don't get to the "What does it stand for" question, they stay stuck on the "How do you pronounce it" question.

[Dreamer]

Lol, people don't get to the "What does it stand for" question, they stay stuck on the "How do you pronounce it" question.

"Uzumaki" & "kage" just put the two words together when saying it.

[Torxe]

perhaps add how Torxe is pronounced, since this seems to be important to you all (important in general):

Torx (without e)

[K9ofChaos]

My username is based on my love for dogs and fascination for utter destruction and chaos.



So I just typed in the word canine but with the letter "K" and the number "9" to add a twist to it.



I added the word chaos to the mix because I thought it would sound cool.



And that's how my username came to be.

[TheBerserkMoogle]

At the time I made this I was going through my love of viking history phase, and I didn't really want to make my name just TheBerserker. So, I decided that something from a videogame that completely contradicted the first part would be approprate. I figured moogles were cool, so I made myself TheBerserkMoogle.

[Kyuudaime]

"Uzumaki" & "kage" just put the two words together when saying it.

I meant for mine. xD

[Mary]

I have two usernames:

Mary, which is short for Maria, my actual name

and kamuinoyume, which was a name of a music video from one of my favorite series: X TV. I loved Kamui, and I loved the meaning of the name. I usually translate it as "dreaming of Kamui" = "Kamui no yume", but I don't know how accurate that translation is...

[The Tax-Man]

Ah...my username.

'Tis easy. It's my official nickname. My real name -one of them- is pronounced like [tah-k-shh] the 'tah' 'a' sounds like in 'apple'. Since it sounds like "tax"(and tax is easier to say), I've been dubbed Tax, Taxi, The Tax Man etc.

And I recently found out that there is a Beatles song of the same title

So basically most of my usernames are a name I have been given by friends and classmates since second grade. I guess it just stuck . Now I can't even remember most of school but that's still my name, so yeah... That's Me!

[Black Rose]

My old username: Sakura_1_. Well, Sakura is my fave character and I thought that her name would already be taken so I added the "_1_" thing to make sure that my username would be accepted.

Black Rose: I got bored of the Sakura_1_ name, so I asked a friend for some ideas. Well, they were all bad, but he just randomly said something about roses and such and I got the idea. I thought I could just choose "Rose", he suggested "ThePinkRose", I hated it and suggested "TheBlackRose" and then he suggested "BlackRose" but I wanted a space between the words, so I chose "Black Rose" Yeah, I know...LONG BORING STORY! XD
