Does anyone know why Day9 is called Day9? I searched everywhere and could not find an answer so I assume it is not common knowledge.

"I just wanted a single syllable name, like Flash, or Boxer, and I really liked the Clan [9], and they didn't exist anymore, so I just chose the word Day, and put it with the clan name [9]"

How do I know this by heart? haha.

He wanted a one word name for his tag because it was popular at the time. Players like "Boxer" were popular and he liked the idea of a quick one word name. The 9 is because he had heard of the 9 clan and hadn't seen it on Starcraft, so he decided to call himself Day with the 9 suffix as such: Day[9]
