gamertags - What does yours mean?

mickyt

My Gamertag is fuzzyfuzz,

when I was in Primary School I went into school one day and my hair was all fuzzy. From then right up til I left secondary school, I was called fuzzy by my mates.

Then quite simply fuzzy was taken so I took fuzzyfuzz.

Does anyone elses gamertag have a background story?

I just choose a handle I liked the look of. I have no fixed way of pronouncing it.

Dick Gaywood has a bit of a story to his handle: [Link]

Nevaeh2Die4

Nevaeh is my daughter Pronounced (na-vay-a)

redbhoy1888

ChilliNuts

Mine's ChilliNuts because it's a stupid name for a food.

rizzla

Mines will i am not. My name is William but I'm not will i am, so it's a not joke. I just wanted to be on xbox live so I just put in anything and everything, as long as it didn't have a number at the end I was happy.

Keggers

Ghost Larkin, larkin is my favorite character from the Gaunt's ghosts seri of books

FreeOSCAR

FreeOSCAR and I have no idea. It was a Christmas night and there was Alcohol involved

kaimera

helios

I chose a name, then I was told that it was already taken. I was offered some random alternatives, so I chose this one

RobertFoster

My initials. Confuses the fuck out of people as it's unpronounceable (sjamcm). Dates back to my first email address. I wanted something unique and I didn't want a number in it.

Ha! cheesy!

Mine is an alternative word for the elbows or knees in Maydupsville.

thebman

brim4brim.

brim - appreviation for my first name and surname but is always fooking taken.

4brim was added out of frustration of brim always been taken so brim4brim means brim 4 me or its my nick so fook off everyone else that keeps taking it.

Daysha

deise59 for me. Deise cause of the Waterford background, 59 for 1959, the last time we won the All-Ireland.

Because it's Irish and is pronounced daysha, sometimes the Yanks do get a bit confused.

"Oi, Dee-I-See, what are you doing?"

tman

Erm... tman was already taken:p
People just started calling me tmoneh a few years ago due to the whole pimpdaddy thing, guess it just turned into my safety nick...

Retr0gamer

retr0gamer1337. 1337 added because I'm brilliant but mostly because retr0gamer was already taken by some other bellend. Used retr0gamer since the start of my younger obnoxious tosser boards days and have been using it up until my present obnoxious tosser days.

Mine is SyrusVocah

Syrus: From the movie Con Air character "Syrus The Virus" John Malkovich.

Vocah: A big scary monster looking thing from Buffy The Vampire Slayer. The girlfriend at the time was a big Buffy fan and I saw a picture of one of them and thought it looked cool.

Not exciting but it sure is unique.

dazftw

daz0rz

daz short for darren

0rz cause im a big nerd

:pac:

the Americans pronounce it dayzorz

Fringe

I combined Viva Pinata and Assassin's Creed to form PinataCreed. I also stole a bit of it off a Penny Arcade comic. My motto is stay your bat from the candy of the innocent though so it's funny enough.

johnny_ultimate

The name of a satirical superhero created during a particular boring lunch break that, while the joke may have worn off long ago, is just the general handle I use for the 'net.

Stokolan

was stuck for a name a few years ago.. Looking around the room for something, most stuff was taken. except this...



Been using it since!

Nailz

Minw is MNUtd; Man Utd, Manchester United, Man United, Manchester Utd and MUFC were taken.

Burning Eclipse

I wanted Maleficent. (The Disney Villain) It was taken
I wanted The Nerevarine. (Morrowind) It was taken
Indoril Nerevar. (Ditto) Taken...
Silver Eclipse (Ramirez's most powerful S-Move in Skies of Arcadia). It was taken.

If the fact that I'm a nerd hasn't come across from GT choices it never would...

Hence, Burning Eclipse. The Americans call me Burning.

Ironically, since I took up this mantle, the 'Heroes' symbol could easily be described as a Burning Eclipse!
