What inspired your username?
Over the years I've come across alot if unique and wierd gamertags and psn usernames. So I thought I would make a post and see how you guys came up with them.
I created mine about 10 years ago when I was big into the game runescape. I really wanted it to be "awhisperinthedark" but it was taken already and I really didn't want to have number in my name. But after trying for a good hour with different variations I made mine darkvoice7 and had to settle with a number at the end which was my favourite number. Since then it's the one I use for all online games, and I use darkvoice8 for forums and stuff.
If we can get this trending and keep it trending then maybe we can get deej and cozmo to tell us how they got/came up with their names.
Edit: alot of these are really unique :-) it's cool to see how certain things outside of games can have an effect on how people made their names.
Edit2: over 150 replies wow! I honestly wasn't expecting that many :-) thanks to everyone for contributing. Im enjoying reading them, and I'm sure other people are too :-)

Edited by The New Monarch: 8/17/2015 6:38:02 PMWell mine is based off of my name...lol...very creative, I know I've been using it for probably 15 years or so and I just don't know what else to go with...although I have been thinking about coming up with something new I think in part it came from Lion-O from Thundercats as well as some nicknames when I was younger. EDIT: I guess I should add that the number 3 has always been my lucky number, so that's been thrown in to most of my video game profiles
