Hi all, Ok some of you may have done this before.... put its fun so join in... and i cant take the credit for this original idea...... so i snurched it How did you create your log on name for the forum.... is it a nick name or because of a different reason.... Go on tell us... i'll start..... be warned this is really boring.... zzzzz When i was younger..... now i sound old straight away... i used to spend ages gaming in arcades. Most games would oly allow 3 letters when you got i high score.... My full name is Matthew... to long, and i hate Matt being spelt with one 't' so seeing as i was a bit of a nutter anyway MAD sort of stuck. But if you see someone writing MAD everyware it puts you off... so madmat was born... simple and boring... So please you must have a better story than that lame one above.... even if your log on name is your REAL name it doesnt matter. Post below ;D

My story is almost similar. Way back in time, I played Duke Nukem via LAN almost daily. I was a very fast & accurate shooter/player and therefore I was nicknamed "god" - sometimes people even [kindly] asked me NOT to join the game coz it was no fun when I was around.
After LAN experiences, on line internet gaming became popular and on internet the nick "god" is too common so I made a combo out of "god" and "gotcha".

Well... my nickname was born one day when I went to vistit a friend who had a 6 year-old nephew. She tell me that if I want to see (or hear) his first words... It's a game of words in Spanish... I will try to explain to you it in a simple way: In that time I had the very short hair, as a boy... and as me it was very high and stout. The child confused me with a boy... normal... je je je The nephew tells me: ;DNephew. - Hello "nene"!! (little boy in spanish) :)My Friend. - Noooo... she is "nena"(little girl)... :-/Nephew. - "Nenaaaa"?? Not! "Nene"! ;)My Friend. - That not... she calls herself Vane... ???Nephew. - "Nene" not? "Nena"? Nane? And at the end, with the skylarking, crisis of identity and other things, I kept that nikname, Nane... Then I added it before the article. ("la" as "the" in Spanish... la Nane = the Nane...) Have you understood it? Well... I hope my terrible English has served as something ... je je je kisses!

I'll just cheat and copy my old text from Kansas if you don't mind, hehehe
Kyntio is just a derivative of my real name Cinzia, which means "woman of Kynthos" in Greek. Cynthia was an epithet of the Greek moon goddess Artemis, given because Kynthos was the mountain on Delos on which she and her twin brother Apollo were born.
Nobody ever pronounces my real name correctly anyway (except Italians). People call me tschintschiia or djinza or other weird names. It's common as muck in Italy though.

Hi there Jen Kind of hard to explain but I usually tell anglophone people to pronounce the first part ~Cin~ the same as ~Cin~ in Cinzano (the drink) and then just ad ~ia~ at the end. My boyfriend tells everyone to think of the chin as in the part of your face and then ad the ~ia~ does that make any sense? hugs Kyntio *

Tom: Real name _: courtesy of hotmail.com Crawling: A song by Linkin Park, not my surname. Although thinking about it, the lyrics to it are fairly crap, but i like the reanimated version which has Aaron Lewis from Staind doing vocal's with Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda.

Hii! Ok, my nikname... well my name is Irene, and the fist time i use msm, that's was my nikname, then, one of my friends use "ramses" as his nikname. I love history art, and i want to mi nikname begin with the same leter. I chose Isis because i love the history of osiris and isis. (she returns Osiris from dead) and... It's begin with the same leter. Maybe is too simple, but... that's all.

Mine's another LAN gaming name, but I got it from mistakes I made rather than skill ;D .
The full version is 'Bullet Sponge'. I got this hung on me after one game of Ghost Recon where I had a run of particularly bad luck. We were playing a co-op mission, and had to destroy some artillery. I charged up one particular hill, which had one of the objectives on it, about eight times - and got killed by the same AI bot each time, no matter how hard I tried to avoid it!

Hi,
My name is Anna and I like Aeryn Sun. I replaced Aeryn with Anna to make AnnaSun. Sun is not my surname like people think.
From Anna Sun Thanks
