decades ago people used to hack phones for free long distance, and they called it phreaking.

Had this nickname for a few years now and have stuck to it. I tried to derive a unique name from the word "nether" and this was the best I could come up with^^

I named myself after the great Norwegian King Epishade way back in the 1200s.

Do you play Travian (web browser game) or is it this a coincidence?

Two of my names are Daniel and Lee, see what I did is I shortened Daniel to Dan and since you can't put spaces in your name on sc2 I just left it as DanLee.

My nick name as a kid was "karne asada" as a play on words for my last name, and then I swapped asada with espada. Shortly after I realized what carne espada translated to and I decided to just go with it.

So...when I first started getting interested in SC2, I downloaded the Starter Edition (because I didn't have enough money to actually buy the full game, then priced at $65). I went through the process of creating an account, blah blah blah, they asked for a name, I just typed "John", whatever, generic name.

So when I bought WoL, I was like "Oh, I actually already have it linked to an e-mail address and password, I'll just use that", so I registered it under that account. Then I opened SC2, eagerly awaiting being able to choose my name and getting online. But I already had a name: John. And nowhere did it say I could change my name on BNet. I FREAKED OUT. Later in time, I discovered I could change my name on BNet's site, but I had already gone under John for so long and I wasn't really sure of a good name to change to. So I just stuck with John. And that's how I ended up with the name "SC2John".

My name is Chris.

I really wish FabledIntegral fit like it did in BW and almost every other game in existence. No idea why the characters are so limited for SC2. Used "FabIntegral" all of WoL. Once HOTS came out I made the [Fabled] clan and now have "[Fabled]Integral" although the vast majority of people think it's just "Integral" which is almost worse .

My name was originally an xbox live autogenerated name, being on topic. I really just wanted to play Halo2 asap, my typical name I had used up until that point (either something referencing Cloud from FF7 or something dumb like DejaVu) was already taken so it had a list of "suggested names." FabledIntegral was the third on the list and I liked it :D. Had no idea it was related to math at the time. In fact, I loathe Calculus, don't particularly enjoy integrals (derivatives so much easier), and love and enjoy Statistics a ton. Taken ~7 stats classes, liked pretty much all of them, but hated all 3 calc classes I took.

Marathi was the name of my mage in WoW, which was a tweak on the Dark Elf Mage Morathi in the Warhammer Fantasy world.

My ingame nick is ChanSungJung who is a korean MMA fighter known better as The Korean Zombie, currently fights in the UFC!

I liked to play with the fps game F.E.A.R. and Aliens Vs Predator 2, I was like 12 when I came up with my internet ID. Also my favorite hungarian products are Ikarus buses... my class mates named me Ikarus for know everything about Ikaruses :D
