What made you choose your name by which other members know you?

I was looking at some of the awesome names some members have & Just out of curiousity what made you choose your name by which other members know you?.....

 

It was my nickname, but not too many people call me by it anymore.

 

JJ is my nickname.. and errrm 87 was when i was born

i wouldnt call JJ87 as awseome though but yeh some people have really cool screen names

 

Because if I told you my real name, I'd have to kill you.

 

I know your real name.

And.. my name is Jesse, plus I seek immortality. there for.. I think you get it.

 

After the LP song.

I used to have the stupidly long name of "This Is Dedicated To The Kids"

 

An emoticon that goes like this:

Although I've had like 3 names before this I think.

 

Yeah I changed mine to my real name because I saw a lot of names like that, and I've been around here long enough to be comfortable using it, without question.

but previous names I've had were...Ohhh boy i think in order they are
Lpfan22 (my leeching days)
LinkinMinor22 (when I started to post more and Fort Minor came out)
Hybrid Claw (Was a username I had when I got into a Video Game)
Roxas ( stopped playing the game, So I was recently hooked on Kingdom Hearts, Chose Roxas cause he's badass)
Nick (Real Name and Dawn of Ambient/Supermember Era)

EDIT** and During the Roxas days I was also The Green Lantern for LPA Superheroes.

 

No Ace, Just You is a song by Forgive Durden, one of my all time faves too, and I decided to call myself it on Myspace and now it's stuck.

I used to be EostreMayhem everywhere, but that was from a sad, puppy love relationship, and we were very sad.

 

Xero due to LP, Minus because I thought 'Minus Xero' sounded cool. And people could call me Minus or Xero. Then some people started calling me MX, so that was cool.

For a while I was Kayce because that's my name.
I was also OMFG CLAIRE during the second season of Heroes. Ah, the OMFG craze.
Then I was Makino during Hana Yori Dango 2.
When the Heroes obsession on LPA turned into just Superheroes, I became Iceman. I play him on X-Men Legends and everything after that, and he's an omega level mutant. That's just cool.

For the better part of 4 years (damn, almost 5 years) I've been here, I kept my name Minus Xero. But as I became more involved with the community (past year or two) I started having name changes like crazy, obviously.

There might be some names I left out, but those are the ones I remember having for an extended period of time.

 

mine is sorta self explaintory HA XD

 

I was Qwerty10, after the song, obviously. Then I changed it to Arlene..because that's my name. Ah well.

lawl@Daniel.

 

All my usernames are listed in my sig, I just chose them by random, I suppose. If something, some name or whatever, interested me even for a second, I'd think about it as a possible LPA username. I'm sticking to names that are more connected with my own nickname these days, though, since I guess it's just more understandable? People recognise you more and don't go, "Hey, who's that person that goes by *insert username* these days? I think he/she's kind of familiar sounding."

 

It's my nickname.

 

Ghost Child --> The smashing pumpkins's Glass and the Ghost Children.
Squee --> Jhonen Vasquez's fictional character.
Marj --> Shortening of my name.
Pooky --> Tomi dared me to change it into that, I did after I dared him into changing his name into 'Penor'. It's sexual, you can figure it out (I hope).
Marjolein --> My name.

 

You get muchos kudos for naming yourself Squee.

I'm planning on changing my username to Gir someday.

 

Noooo, name yourself Homicidal Johnny. Or just NNY. :-D

 

Tehcrusha - My name when I originally registered here. Not sure how I came up with it, but its lameness is undeniable.
[Tim] - Shortened version of my real name. Had to use the brackets because the name was already taken.
Iron Man - My name during the short-lived superhero craze.
Timothy - My real name, minus the bracket-y BS.

 

Oh yes, the superhero thing. I was Mystique for like a month.
