The "Where did you get your username?" Thread

VesilisVesilis Member UncommonPosts: 21
I've seen these on other forums and always found them fun to read. Lets hear some good stories!

 I got this username when I first started playing MMOs (Runescape, eww) and needed a name. My friend had a similar name (sort of) and I kinda just rhymed this with it. I remember it needed to start with an unusual letter, and V rox yo sox. Ever since then I've used this as my main roleplaying name.

As a sidenote, my original runescape name was Rhinohunter. I realize now that rhinohunter is obviously a better name. image

    it's terribly uncreative, I know. I usually only use it for account names for e-mails and such, but I signed up here with no intention of posting much.

    I started using this name about 10 years ago, not sure if it started with The Realm or just with Quake or something on a similar timeline. Was just a cool word, and nobody else ever used it at the time. Hey I was 10, but at 20 I still love the name. Since then of course, many people have started using this name and sometimes I have to resort to aliases image

    paulscott,  throw my middle name infront of my first so I know if I've met the guy before/liked them.

    permith-sounded like it'd be around for a while, later found out that it was an insecticide

    rodaron-chose some vowels,  and then shoved random letters(yes other vowels were allowed as I didn't feel like coding that in)



    I find it amazing that by 2020 first world countries will be competing to get immigrants.

    Apparently I got my name from "A Fiddler on the Roof" which I had seen at least twice before using it. The butcher was named Laserwolf. When I was trying to think of a cool name on the fly while playing UO's (Can't remember shard, it was the one where you could walk through gates to get skill instantly and there were factions with their own castles that were solidly blue or purple or green or red) shard I pulled General Laserwolf out of my ass, or thought I had. As I grew older I realized "General" was lame and so I just started using Laserwolf after that. I believe it became my main username while playing Battlefield 1942. Before that I went by Orion who was my main UO Character.(Named my Dog Orion too).
