Why/How did you choose your screenname?

[Beowulf]

Just Curious
Mine is a mix between the epic hero, and a badass rifle that someone told me about in A-stan.

[Haiw]

Mine's just something I made up as a nick years ago (at least 5 or so...), and I've used it as online nick ever since.

[Jack Mehoff]

mine is self explainatory.

[Javehn]

I used to DJ a bit , and i was a programmer also 8 years ago . So i pick up that nick , that consist of my first and last name , and i been using it sence .

[MolliG]

Mine is my nickname (well it's more of a real name nowadays) in German. Why German? Well I was born and bred there. Why the capital G instead of the normal lowercase one? Well I wanted it to look like MiG, SiG, StuG et cetera, because, well I don't know... :lol:

[Argyll]

Like Jack, mine is self explanatory!

[Rantanplan]

Rantanplan is the name of my favorite comic character and my favorite Ska-Punk band.

[EvanL]

I got mine after the coolest guy in the world.
Saved 10orphans from a burning house he did, and then put it out using only a garden hose. ;)

[farmgirl]

I didn't want to use my name, and I couldn't think of anything that didn't sound stupid. I guess I could have used Buttercup.... or HRH Buttercup, but I didn't think of it at the time.

I grew up on a farm.... thus farmgirl....

[Seoulstriker]

damn.

when i was playing F/A-18 Korea, i was the first one to use Seoul, South Korea as the perfect bombing range: stadium, oil refineries, towers, bridges, airport, gas station, etc.

[USAF G]

Well I'm in the USAF and some of my friends call me G. I wish I had a better story to go with it. :| Someday I hope to upgrade to either; Highspeed firearms trainer G, or Ultra rich G ;)

[Trigger]

Mine last name begins with 'Trig'. I simply added 'ger' to it.

[buckeyedoc]

I am a navy corpsman with the marines and they call us "doc" and I am from Ohio, the Buckeye State. Hence the name, buckeyedoc.

[duck]

I wanted something sounding high-speed and dangerous.

[IronHeart_26]

Mine was the nickname of a racing legend's father. Except for the 26 part, I used to change it with my age, but I just kept getting older and got tired of adding the numbers so I quit two years ago.

[Ratamacue]

A "ratamacue" is a drum rudiment that I farkin' kick arse at. So...

[Jack Mehoff]

Like Jack, mine is self explanatory!

So, what the hell is an Argyll?

[11F5S]

Like Jack, mine is self explanatory!

But unlike Jackoff, you know how to spell correctly.

[Kriz]

Just my first name Kris only s replaced by z :)

[Jack Mehoff]

Like Jack, mine is self explanatory!

But unlike Jackoff you know how to spell it correctly

Old man, contrary of what your perverted mind tells you because it's Jack Mehoff.

[Roger Rabbit]

I chose mine because 'Rupert' is a nickname for a British army Officer and i would very much like to become one and when i was very very young i used to have a pair of yellow and black trousers like Rupert the bear.

[cut]

Like Jack, mine is self explanatory!

So, what the hell is an Argyll?

http://www.destination-scotland.com/images/locationmaps/argyll.gif

[Dalleer]

Umm, this is just something I made up and the true meaning shall never be told!

(Menacing laughter and all that...)

[Argyll]

An Argyll is/was an Argyll and Sutherland Highlander.
or an Argyll is a type of Sock
or an Argyll is someone from Argyll
or an Argyll is me!!

Have a look at this link for some History about my old Regiment

http://www.argylls.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/

I'm on the Cyprus 83/84 page,on the quarter guard,last on the right!

[11F5S]

Time to drop your **** and pay attention Jack. It's explanation not "explaination".

[Jack Mehoff]

Something have to do with men in skirt? :D

[XASA]

My former parent unit for more than five years was the old U.S. Army Security Agency, better known as ASA. As an ex-ASA'er, I thought XASA had a nice ring to it.

[Roger Rabbit]

Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders is a regiment in the British army.

http://www.argylls.co.uk/

edit:whoops didnt see the question had been answered

[Jack Mehoff]

Time to drop your **** and pay attention Jack. It's explanation not "explaination".

Did i say that? Time to take your medicine old man

[Argyll]

something like that jack! ;)

[stuntman]

I have the coolest name! Ever since I was young I always had pretty good luck with the ladies, so back in the days when i was like 5 or 6 my bro always saw me with lots of girls and then noticed most people after that started migrating towards me. So he told me that I was a stuntman because he used to call girls stunts! Don't ask me why. And Woodland! is just me pciking m81 as a name, thats all.

[ßå$tĮТHÏ¿ð]

I got the nickname bastardchild awhile ago......

Well I was playing Ghost Recon under the name "smokey" when I got on a hot streak and started owning everyone on the server. They naturally start complaining on how im a "cheap bastard" and a "cheating bastard" and how I was probably 12 years old and sat around all day and played Ghost Recon.

So I put up the screen name "bastardchild" and showed them how it was. To this day it sticks even in my msn name says bastardchild. And hopefully I'm going to get a tag for my bdu's that says bastardchild.

[Uncle Sam]

Mine just has to do with being an Airborne Ranger...Such a cliche. RIP_Cord (ripcord), you call upon it when **** don't go right ! :lol:

[11F5S]

[California Joe]

Rogie Vachon rawked. Just cause of his name. ;)


I got to watch the Bruins play La Canadiens in the Forum many times. That was like watching the Lakers play the Celtics in Boston Garden.

Yes it is. Everything about me and anything I produce is totally ****ing cool.

[Haiw]

It gives it the ring of a little Pokemon-card-collecting kid's name.

Hey don't take it personal...take it as some good advice. Might as well give heed to it now and be cool instead of looking lame and finding out by yourself in a few years. ;)

[Salty Dog]

"MarinezDEP4Z" it's got a sweet ring to it! :P

[Salty Dog]

*throws out pokemon card collection*
the main reason why i added the Z was not to make it sound cool. i added it becouse while playing games online my name was memphis{CDN}, i got alot of stupid questions: asking if i was from memphis tennasee(sp) like if i new someone from there or, what part of memphis i live in etc.(even though in the game i indicated i was from Canada with a {CDN} after my name) so to stop it i added the Z so people would not get confused, even though they still sometimes do. but whatever some people are stupid

[budanski]

Boutros Boutros-Ghali was already taken so I opted for Budanski. I heard some poor polish kid ended up with Seoulstriker. ;)

[James]

Uhh, well, my name really is James. Sometimes I am lacking in imagination... :(

Perhaps I should change my persona to something cool, like "Snake" or "Stormshadow", or "Bad Ass Mutha F*cka".

What do you think?

I'm kinda partial to James..... ;)

[budanski]

How about "Peaches"? ("James and the Giant Peach")

[James]

In my opinion, "Peaches" is too close to comfort to the name "Precious" - Buffalo Bill's dog in "The Silence of the Lambs".

Thanks for the suggestion, though.

I think I'll stick with James for the time being.

[ArmedPacifist]

I wanted to appear witty and clever.

[USMarine3521]

self explanatory for my name, just read DEP4's post except im going June 21st and to MCRD San Diego. :D

[Sleeping Sun]

Sleeping Sun is a song of a finnish heavymetal band Nightwish. It's the most beautiful song ever made and the voice of the vocalist Tarja Turunen is just...is just...well there's no word in finnish or english to describe it. This is the only song that sounds every time as beautiful as it did the first time I heard it.

http://www.the-gothicworld.de/cdreviews/06-2002/nightwish.jpg

[Flagg]

My parents always watched M.A.S.H. when I was a kid(only one TV), so I had to watch it too.

Although I thought the show was quite funny....even at a young age I found it's anti-war message beyond heavy-handed.

I always found the character Colonel Flagg incredibly funny...when he made his rare visits.

Like when he wanted the surgeons to save the life of a suspected enemy infiltrator(who he had shot escaping) just so he could have him executed.

And when he made his final farewell from the show, he made everyone turn around as he jumped out a glass window to make his "covert" exit.

[Mr Gently Benevolent]

Studying for an exam and trying to sign up for this forum at the same time, I was suddenly stuck for a name so just looked at the page I was on and Bacilluspolymyxa jumped out at me.

[RealUltimatePower]

Wolfe was an English General who kicked some Frog tail.
117 is the number given to the master cheif in Halo.

[PsihoKeke]

PsihoKekec is from my years in school many kids , considered me crazy and they called me Kekec becouse of the way I dressed during winter.

[DE_Six]

DE stands for Deep Eyes. It's the name of the squadron commanded by Lt. Grey Edwards in Final Fantasy. I'm a fan.

Six is the radio code for the team leader in small units.

Deep Eyes is also my favorite brand of rock climbing gear. It's spanish and very hard to come by in North America but it rules!

So I started using Deep Eyes Six (or DE6 for short) for online gaming years ago and it stuck.

[Nondescript]

Got mine from a coca-cola commercial I always saw when I went to the cinemas in San Diego. Always thought it was funny.

It's DeLux son DeLux rofl

[non-zero possibility]

umm... Its a song by a band I like.... it sounds cool... and was my callsign in all the games i played... and it can be spelt all cool like... with the crazy numberletters all tha kids use these days.

[Andyman]

The head technician who works for my dad's company has called me Andyman since...well I don't exactly remember but he just calls me that and I had been using that name on the net for a while so yeah it just worked out that way. My real name is Andrew as I'm sure many had already guessed. Some call me Andy also.
