Hello there everyone!

As you can see, my current name is "Killykill" and frankly, I can't take it anymore. The only reason I've been using it for so much time is because if I switch, everyone who knows me as Killykill will get confused. But first let me give you a brief history:

I was about 6 years old, and my brother bought Diablo 1. It's an awesome game (obv) and after having fun in single player, I decide to hit Battle.Net for the first time. And I'm hit with the extremely hard decision of naming my character. Now I know some of you are like "Just name it X!" WELL NO! I spent about one hour just thinking of a name. Eventually, I came up with the most original thing I could think of, Killykill. (I was 6 years old, remember!).

As time has gone on, I've continuously have been using that as my name for all things multi-player. Mainly because I don't want to be X in something, Y in something else and Z in a third game. It gets confusing!

But now I am sick and tired of this name created by a six year old. I need something cool, something awesomesauce, and something more mature and makes more sense than "Killykill".

So I decided what better place to look for answers than right here, in TeamLiquid, The Land of.....something... I believe in you people, to give me the greatest (but kinda orginal or unique spelling, so I can take it first) name ever imagined***.

Go think of anything, from Game references, to Mythology, to a mix of both, it doesn't really matter. Keep your magical box of thinking open. And the person who's name idea I choose, is the Winner. The Winner wins something, I just haven't decided yet. Maybe being a practice bitch in SC2 for 5 1v1s? Don't worry, I'll act like a horrible player to raise your self-esteem.

And...GOGOGOGOGOGOGO!

**Might be exaggerating my expectations just a tad bit.

P.S. I am a 600 point diamond player, so this makes my argument more valid than the person under me.

Well you should name yourself, killykill is obviously a horrible name, but you need to figure one out for yourself, just think of random letters, if you dont have better idea, and try to make a word which does not exist but sounds fluent.
Like Khytar, means nothing, but starts with K and has Y in it, so pretty cool.
Or take your real name, some of the names are cool, and using a real name is quite mature

or open up a greek mythology book/website, there are a shittone of not used cool names.
Like Aether, an elemental god, i bet you never heard the name before

It's kinda hard to give you a name without knowing you/your interests. You can use your old name to get new names as well by removing letters, like - Illyk/Kiyil/Killyk/Lyki/Ykil.

Just name yourself. It's not going to stick if it doesn't come from you.

I find it hard to believe you're not creative enough to think of a name yourself.

I like it.

No, no, no....not again.....

But as you probably guessed, I'm a big fan of Starcraft and other blizzard games, as well as RPGs (but not really JRPGs). And a big gamer ranging from Half-Life 2 and Starcraft to my favorite game of all time Deus Ex. The suggestions so far are pretty much what I expected (exception: Geo.Rion, thanks buddy!). So continue!

P.S. Whoever rated this 1 star is a horrible, horrible person.

EDIT: Your right Alou, but I thought it would be fun to do it this way. And if it's a fair amount of fun doing it, I might as well keep it, it would be a good story for later. Also, maybe one of you people will randomly say something I've been thinking/forgot about, and that'll be that. I'll probably end up naming myself anyways, but I might as well get random names out of a hat!

AND I AM CREATIVE DAMMIT! I just can't decide on a single thing yet.
Seriously?

My nickname is my first name with an h at the end of it for some reason and I`m not whining, stick with it in my opinion (it`s not that bad).

I'm with Alou, you should really think of one yourself.
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt
