I choose traxor because me and Stigmata were in lesson and I wanted an alias, so we were writing loads of names in the back of my french book and I chose trax, I had that for a while, then I used it and it got hacked, then I chose traxor.. and here I am.. i chose traxor cause my mate was hosted by someone who had 'trax' in their url :)

RE: Why didi you choise your name? by sock on 12-21-2004 at 04:08 AM

[boring-story]

One day I was feeling down so I temporarily changed my nickname on IRC to LifeSucks (I've had lots of strange nicknames changing every few weeks before that). After a day or so I decided to change it to Sucks for some reason. :| Then it soon became Socks.

I think I sticked with that for a few weeks, and tried Sox too, but I was annoyed by the fact "Socks's" and "Sox's" look so ugly, so I finally changed it to Sock. Some time later, I tried the lowercase sock and I liked it, and I just never changed it again. I've probably had it for over 5 years now.

A few months ago I decided to change it again, but nobody wanted me to because they've all become accustomed to it, so I finally just dropped the idea. Although, I started using my real name as my username in some places instead of "sock".

[/boring-story]

There is, however, some dark hidden psychological reason for me sticking to that nickname, I believe. But that is for me to know and for you to wonder.


RE: Why didi you choise your name? by L. Coyote on 12-21-2004 at 05:02 AM

RE: Why didi you choise your name? by ~INVASION~ on 12-21-2004 at 05:24 AM

and then the squigly lines came in just because i thought it needed a little something to center it out and make it look neater


RE: Why didi you choise your name? by kangie on 12-21-2004 at 05:39 AM

RE: Why didi you choise your name? by tralala on 01-21-2005 at 01:02 PM

cause i needed to think of something rather fast, and i really couldn't think of anything


RE: Why didi you choise your name? by Phrive on 01-21-2005 at 01:36 PM

This is how i choose my name

"How are things in your little world, I hope they're going well and you are too. Do you still see the same old crowd, the ones who used to meet every Friday. I'm really sorry that I can't be there, but work comes first, I'm sure you'll understand. Things are really taking off for me business is thriving, and I'm showing a profit and.
And in any case it wouldn't be the same, 'cause we've all grown up and we've got our lives, and the values that we had once upon a time, seem stupid now 'cause the rent must be paid and some bonds severed and others made"

These are the lyrics from a song called burning sky, by and old 80's band who i adore called The Jam

I has always liked the meaning, too grow and get better, so i decided that would be my alias, i just added PH instead of TH, to make it more original

Ar first it was _-PhRiVe-_, but i decided that was very clishae, so it then became Phrive


RE: Why didi you choise your name? by Wabz on 01-21-2005 at 02:01 PM

Wabz

Its a long story.  When I was a weeeee nipper in junior school I stuck to Whelan which is my actual second name.  These got changed to Weebles (After some kids toy) then to weebs , then to Wee Wabs then just to Wabs and then I came here and started spelling it with a Z instead of an S

RE: Why didi you choise your name? by CookieRevised on 01-21-2005 at 03:06 PM

see the sticky thread introduction (and some other same threads on these forums)


RE: Why didi you choise your name? by Dempsey on 01-22-2005 at 12:04 AM

I chose mine becuase it's my surname and its what my mates have called me for years.  It first started cos there were a few people with the same first name as me, so it was easier to use surnames, but it just stuck with me and hardly anyone uses my firstname now.


RE: Why didi you choise your name? by rav0 on 01-22-2005 at 11:53 PM

well my name is Ravneel and a friend (Tiffani) started calling me "ravo" and i was going to use it when registering my dottk but i thought it looked boring so i made it rav0 with a zero and it became an alias

PS the first time it is in this post i meant to type it with letter o but my fingers did id with a zero and i had to change it . . . wow

PPS i later found out that i couldnt have registered "ravo.tk" any way


RE: Why didi you choise your name? by xpirdwingz on 01-22-2005 at 11:58 PM

Err, i dunno really..I use to be angel_sweet in a chat for a while, then i kept getting asked about being hurt from falling from heaven :P (which was alright the first coupla times, lol) and then i grew up a bit, so i guess having expired wings show a different side, maybe..

Anyhow , My originall nickname was Messenger_Plus! (About a year ago) but some forum members found it abit deceiving. New Members thought I created Messenger Plus! and so I decided to change it. I'm not very creative so NoName dawned.

and I was bord 1992 so I took the second part and put it with my name so it made up "Salma92"

RE: Why didi you choise your name? by John on 02-01-2005 at 11:00 AM

Jaguar - a nickname given to me when I was 8 years old while playing a game of basketball with my neighbours, because my favourite animal is the Jaguar :) (and Jaguar cars are just awesome!)


RE: Why didi you choise your name? by user13774 on 02-01-2005 at 11:39 AM

Yeah, I like Jaguar cars too :happy:

My real name is Mark and when I started to play Starcraft I also needed a nickname. First I came with Mark Mastermind or something like that... but hey, Markus, a 'Roman' version of Mark, sounds much better :P
In Warcraft III Markus was already taken :dodgy:, so I took Markus.B.. with the first letter of my last name...
