Divereth:
Diveriks is the title for God of the gods, Master of the sky(in Baltic mythology). I didnt like the "iks" ending so i changed it to "eth". Also Divereth had only 7 hits in google before i started to use it and for me thats a sign of a good nickname ^^. ID should be unique.

DrGreen is my old nickname and I just took it from Cypress Hill - Dr.Greenthumb song. Had full nick for some time then I shortened it a bit.

Mine was influence when i was 15 and watched "the day of the jackal", i liked the name a lot and decided to use it as my own (and it was the time me and my friends were deciding on clan names). Been using this ever since and i still like it a lot

And since jackal is a common username, i aways go for the 03, since 3 is my favorite number and i add a 0 next to it to make it stand more

My favorite npc char from SC:BW was Praetor Fenix and seeing I was a big time fan of old FF games I just find it to my like to use fenixdown, before the campaing point where Fenix dies I used Praetor_Fenix.
I love protoss because it is tough and straight. It is a race for the men. - Reach

I'm not entirely sure, I played a dude with black clothes in some game I don't remember at a LAN in the 90s and called myself "the_blackone". Has been my internet name ever since

So many nicknames...not enough time/memory for me too explain them all

My current one is just simply the nano bots from Trinity Blood anime, might add my clan's tag into it at some point, but I'm far too lazy for that at this point Especially since I already did it twice for my 360 GT, lol.

I've used other names, the most common being Rook492, I think it was just something random that I picked when I was playing chess for like 2-3 hours everyday, but it's been so long that I don't remember anymore.
Steam: rook492

Back in bw my micro was amazing. In some games the commentators would comment on "His probe is still dancing around his opponents base" and how well i could keep my units alive. I ended up creating two smurf accounts one of them DanceOfBlades and DanceOfStorm because of my zealot micro and psionic storm usage. When sc2 came out I chose the name 'Dance' because to me the game is more then just macro + attack click. It becomes a rhythm and a pace you set yourself to while executing little tiny micro tricks, and multi prong attacks to throw your opponent off balance.
Dance.943 || "I think he's just going to lose. There's only so many ways you can lose. And he's going to make some kind of units. And I'm going to attack him, and then all his stuff is going to die. That's about the best prediction that I can make" - NonY

Well some people like to produce my name wrong as demonisssss instead of Demon Ace.

When I used to play CFS2 back in the day, my favorite plane was the P38 Lightning and the leading Ace in that plane was Richard Bong with ~40 confirmed kills. I became 323rdAce in my squadron back then, then turned into 777thAce and eventually into 222ndAce.

After my flightsim era, I went onto Empire Earth, Company of Heros, SC1/BW, Age of Empires series and I wanted to become a bit more against religion and have a darker name. So I added Demon to it

From Wikipedia.org:
demon or daemon, daimon; from Greek δαίμων daimôn,[1] is a supernatural being described as something that is not human and in ordinary usage malevolent.

34 was added on because it has been my baseball number since I was 6 years old and because I've always had numbers in my name since the beginning of my online gaming career.

The story of my name is quite boring:
I created a character on a Neverwinter Nights Server and couldn't think of a name, so i used the Random Name Generator on the character screen and after getting a few horrible names i got Morfildur Seltanoide, which sounded ok, so i took it.

My alternate characters/smurf accounts always have the 'Morf' prefix, except in games where it's possible to use a surname. I think i have the most alternate characters in LotRO, where i have the dwarves Morfalin (like Balin), Morfgrimm (grimm sounded 'dwarvy' enough), the elves Morfuil, Morfthalion and Morflas (admit it, everyone had an elf with a similar name in some game...), the Hobbit Morfbrand (was a suggested suffix in the game) and of course my main Morfildur.

I now take most of my names from the names i used in that game, so that my Terran and Protoss smurfs are now Morfalin and Morfgrimm

Well my SC2 in-game nick is "Hairy", but I typically use "TheHolyChicken".

TheHolyChicken came about because it was the most ridiculous nick I could think of, originally for Worms Armageddon I think. I came to adopt this for every game I played....except for Blizz games where there's a 13-char name limit (GRRR!), which means my name would be either "TheHolyChicke" (which is rubbish) or "HolyChicken", which I didn't really like.

So, for WoW, my main character had to be crafted a brand new name; an even more ridiculous name, and thus "Hairyspleen" was born. After a while I noticed that 90% of the time - presumably because my nick was too long - people would shorten it to either "Hairy" or "spleen" (almost always the former). So for SC2 I just rolled with it, and here I am!
Sometimes I sits and thinks, and sometimes I just sits

Calm to remind me not to be so angry while playing (I play zerg).
Now that I think of it, Frantic would be more appropriate in most games lol

I honestly thought I somehow got this name first, without realizing that Calm is a pro bw player. Lol. But afaik, he's not on TL or in SC2 yet, and I will gladly think of something else if he ever joins either.

I'm a teacher in real life, and I once had a pupil whose name was Husnanda (I think he was Indian). I liked the sound to this name, but it was kinda long, so I shortened it to Husnan to make my WoW character, and I kept on going with it since then.
