I need some inspiration as my current name isn't very unique. How did you come up with yours?

Mine just refers to the term used to describe the people from my area.

I've had a lot of different ones, but I've settled on Nines, because I wanted a new one and I was listening "To The Nines by Hatesphere" at the time and liked the sound and idea behind it. pretty simple.

other names:
Jacobshock
Malign
Romeo
Riot

My nick is Never, which is fitting because I never play online anymore.

12 years ago some young kids saw me smoke a cig. They just started to learn basic english and played with the words "smoke" and "Kim" (my irl name), and then came up with "Smokim". When i told my friends about it, everyone loved it so much that it was my nickname for several years, and since then it have always been my Online/Gamer name

I tried thinking of stuff related to pets names or some sort of strange combination of my name but my dog and myself probably have the most common names in the world (My name is Daniel but I get called Dan, and my dog is called Jake).

Anything with "dark" or "shadow" is fine.

I use plays on words, because I´m slightly obsessive that way.

Steve Wozniak is a pretty cool dude. The Internet Oracle is a pretty cool dude. I liked the mental imagery of Steve Wozniak smiting people with bolts of lightning, so I decided to combine the two. Helps if you want to have a unique handle, think poopfeast420
