This is somthing that I've done on several forums that I've signed up on and all you do is tell where you got your name that you use for games and forums that you sign up for.

I got the name Berserk from an anime my brother used to watch. It was alright but I liked the name.

by Messy
I used to call myself Messiah, a name I originally made up for a friend who couldn't be arsed to find his own name when he started to play UT.
I liked it more than my current nick I guess (I forgot what that was ¬_¬) so I adopted it as my own when he decided not to play UT anymore (his dad didn't allow him to).

Anyway, people always tended to just call me Messy and I guess I just liked it so much I stayed with that.

meh..not really interesting I guess.

by Rino
I created a Linebacker with NFL Madden 2003 and i wanted to give him an italian name and surname, a name that also looked a Heavy, powerful, rude. So i called that Linebacker Rino Ceronte that can be a real name in italian, and it the name of the animal, if u read it without space.
So when i started to play on line i rememebered that and i used to be Rino Ceronte that obviously turned after some weeks in Rino \o/.

by Cenotaph
Well, not much really...

I needed to change nick coz my previous nick (TI_MI_RE_OR) didnt fit in Ut2003 limit when using the tag of my first DB clan (-=PB=-), so i had to came up with a name.

Cenotaph happens to be a name of a song from Bolt Thrower and is also a name used by several bands (my main inspiration was the turkish Cenotaph) ;)
I just thought it would be a fitting nick for me ;)

BurntLeaf > L33FY > l0af

The change because people at some other community I used to talk at had a person called B33FY and they were all liek OMG ITS B33FY AND L33FY LOLS so it stuck. I then realised all cap names were gay (sorry to anyone) and people from DB community were calling me loofeh, loof, or l00fer. So.. l0af... :p
