EPTSaw it somewhere spelt, "saracuda". It kind of always struck me as a cool sounding word. So when I did my stint on WoW, to not be a complete thief I spelt it "SeraKuDA". It's just carried over since then.

oDieN[Siege]

My friends then thought it would be necessary to call me "Odie" so I carried the name "Odie" throughout everything. These 2 guys I was on a team with (mainly a botting team back on West) were Solo and Nega; had their own website NegaNetworkz and SoloNetworkz I then went with OdieNetworkz.. when I was done with the whole 'botting' scene, I joined a team and obviously "OdieNetworkz" was too long, so I cut it in half and went with "Odien". I wanted to be a little clever and capitalize only the letters "O" "D" and "N" which sounds out my alias --> ODieN. | ||

rederoin
Netherlands51 Posts
I was active on this dutch forum(solarsoft), They had forum-comic thing going on. The goal of the comic was to add the forum members as character to the comic or something like that. My forum name wasn't really fit for it, so I created a rp name based of my irl name. Which is how rederoin was created(my irl name is Ramon). | ||

Ig

Original WoW character name Ignigena, people couldn't pronounce it so they just called me Ig. I added the "lol" in WoW because I trolled trade channel all the time, the 420 was an inside joke in my guild where 69 and 420 were the best numbers. | ||

MadDetective

So I thought of random fiction characters and the first one to come to mind was, Igor, the Mad Scientist's Assistant So I got into thinking about assistants and I thought of Dr. Watson, Sherlock Holmes assistant So the name I came up with was Igor Watson, the MadDetective's assistant. I just thought MadDetective had an awesome sound to it so I stuck with it. | ||

In the fluff surrounding Arnold Rimmer, he wrote "I am a fish" 500 times in the spacecore astro navigation exam. Hence fish 42 is the meaning of life the universe and everything. Also the book called so-long and thanks for all the fish played a part. This gave me fish42, which was misread on another forum as fish for two. This just stuck with me and has been used ever since. Along with this many years after adopting the fish42 I found that if you take a=1 b=2 ect the total value of fish is 42. This made me stupidly happy. This is all over the course of 15 years or so. | ||

lyrlian
Netherlands257 Posts
My wow account Lyrlia got hacked and wasn't able to be restored. Start new account with Lyrlian! Lyrlia comes from Lyra who is a character in "the golden compass" which is a (children's)book series/movie. She's pretty cool! But Lyra was already taken. So I was forced to add some extra letters. Becoming Lyrlia (female blood elf paladin in WoW). Now I still use this Nickname for SC2...kinda weird since it's female. I'm trying not to think of it too much. Don't tell my co-casters about this xD | ||

adwodon
United Kingdom592 Posts
I played it for a bit, just messing about then the first expansion came out and I made a necromancer, used the in game name generator and it came up with Adwodon and I really liked it. Kinda just stuck with it, it shortens nice to Adwo, easy to remember, easy to pronounce and ambiguous in its origins to not be associated with one game type (ie not too fantasy or sci fi sounding). | ||

In these novels the color of the dragons rates how intelligent they are. Zaranth is a green dragon, low on the totem pole (rank is Gold/Bronze, Brown, Green, Blue). Most greens are just there to fight Thread and not much else. However, Zaranth is unique because not only does she have a female rider, but she figures out how to move things with telekinesis (dragons can use telepathy and teleportation but up to this point not telekinesis). So she becomes basically the first green dragon to teach anything to the larger and more powerful bronze and gold dragons. I picked this name because a) I'm a female b) I'm a noobie, thus an underdog, and c) I hope that I can figure out a really awesome way to play the game and maybe even teach the pros a thing or two. As a side note, I think it would make an awesome logo ... a large golden Z with a green dragon curling around it ... if only I was handy with graphics and design tools. This=awesome! I loved the Pern books growing up, and that's an amazing name conceptualization. | ||
