What's in a Name?? History Behind YOUR Name!

^^^ MAGNIFICO!!!!!


Now, if only your name was the hero of paragraphs, more would know of your great deeds.... But alas, the tale is forever lost in a labyrinth of letters.
 
Inferno comes from the character Jesse from the comic The Amory Wars, which is written by the lead singer of one of my favorite bands Coheed & Cambria. (All of their songs tell the story of the comic) Jesse was given the nickname Inferno when he was part of the group with his brother and sister-in-law KBI (The Knowledge, The Beast, Inferno). He later became a boxer where he fought the Prise (or the angels of the series). He became known as The Prise Fighter Inferno. When the lead singer of Co&Ca started working on some solo stuff, he used the name The Prize Fighter Inferno. I took that and used it also.
 
I was playing Melee and needed a 4 letter name to fit in the name registry, I dunno why I chose Yaya, but that's what it is.

Of course, I then started playing more traditional fighters and discovered there was an ST player about one million times more skilled than I could ever be with the same name, but what can you do?

Space Cadet + Keon, short for Keonakana.
Now "Cadette," the feminine form of cadet.

EDIT: And now back to normal because
A. I think everyone's got the picture by now, hopefully.
B. "Space cadet" is gender-neutral anyway.
C. Brand-name recognition, yo.

My last name because it's pretty unusual in portuguese my two surnames mean something as "stolen necklaces"
 
This name was something I made up for gaia online years ago.
 
My name? My name has an amazing story behind it. A story I only tell maybe once or twice a year, so you kiddies are in for quite the treat. Alright, lemme being...

It all started after I saved Christmas... Now that I think about it, the tale may be too long for this forum to handle. It might even fucking crash, oh shit. Alright, lemme link you guys the story.

Prepare your butts.

looks like a text version of the dolan duck show...
 
Well, I usually like to keep a ton of puns around in my thoughts to use on my friends, so im always armed with puns. Why not make a name that is a pun and describes me perfectly at the same time? Kills two birds with one stone.
 
Chicken is my animal totem, my life inspiration. It's a nice useful animal, easy to domesticate and the true heir of the mothafuckin T-Rex yo.
-withtie because animals look silly in clothing. I like silly things

Oh and my real first name comes from a Disney character

I use this name everywhere, and when I thought of it, I loved Missingno. Considering that Missingno is a glitch, the name GlitchyMissingno is born. Sometimes I have to shorten it to Glitchy or GMissingno, though. Now you know my story, so GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!
 

that's it!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I have a ridiculously massively huge dark navy blue peacoat. The first day I wore it, people kept calling me Admiral and when someone asked my name, I said Admiral Speakeasy.
 
I used to use the name SmartyPants on every website I frequented, but got tired of it. I decided to shorten it to Smarty, then came up with this "clever" idea of removing the y and adding an s. Thus, becoming Smarts.
 
I've been working for a small indie company in my sig (usually no pay) for over seven years as the artist & animator. PSN is... my name. I was never expecting to game online when I created it.
 
Gonna start by saying i tried way too hard in making my name, S is for the first letter of my name (my name being Simon), Sin is for the fact that i sort of like evil things like characters in games, Ink, because i like to draw (though im not amazing at it) Rity was an afterthought just to make it flow better (my original name was Sink but i was tired of being known as an appliance >.>) unfortunately people still call me Sink so i guess it was for not XD
 
<- That's my real name. :Coffee:










.............Oh and it just so happens that's also a name of a country........go figure.
 
I always dreamed of becomeing one of thouse Game Reviewers like Jon Tron or Caddicarus, but when I was thinking of a name...


This abomination popped up in my mind

I love old Snes video game OSTs and TMNT Turtles in Time was my all time favorite. Used to play it just to hear that silly voice at the start.
Also listen to that bass. Thats my jam.
That was my favorite stage too. Played that game forever just to hear it.

Funny, last night I was watching the TMNT Turtles in Time entry of the Best Friends' Turtle Week. When they got to that stage, I put two and two together.

I am a huge Yu Yu Hakusho nerd. I love the show.

#13 was my primary Water Polo cap number in high school athletics during Freshman- Junior year. Water Polo/Swimming was one of the most fun experiences I've had during my four years attending high school where I got to meet great people and swim around elbowing (and being elbowed) people.

Unfortunately I don't have the cap with me (school property which is pretty pricey for a set of caps), but they let me have the ball that was used to score my last goal (I wasn't much of a scorer since my primary duty was mainly ball control/passing) so that was a cool thing to keep.

I actually still use it whenever I go to the pool/beach mainly to play catch. Also got some nifty HS Water Polo/Swimming apparel throughout the years and even a signed photograph from a certain Olympic Silver Medalist (still holds swim records at the HS) who visited his old highschool (probably for a photo op) too.

Edit: oh I still got my team speedo (you don't want to see that do you?) and swim cap at least

So yeah #13 was my cap number so remember that since it will be on the test.

I thought your username was a Juju reference omg.
I guess this shows not to assume things of people.
 
My name is pretty much self explanatory...I have a nice butt.

Yeah there are things that I definitely like that is associated with #13 such as Golgo 13, Organization XIII, etc, but ultimately #13 is just a reminder of old glory days.
 
my username on here has been my email address for about 16-17 years or more now.

how i got my email address? i thought it sounded cool at the time, and for some reason it was familiar at the time. i think it was actually the name of a robot on BBCs robot wars years back.

my gamertag is named after a character from monkey island 3. Captain of the Sea Cucumber!
 
first name middle name GoLLoTt
 
I really don't know what compelled me to name myself Badnik96. I've liked the old Sonic games since I first picked Sonic 1 up for the Virtual Console, and I guess the name Badnik just spoke to me. I added 96 for no reason other than it sounded cool. It isn't my birth year.
 
I just really like Devil May Cry.

As for KillerKroc, I was a big Call of Duty nerd and my brother wanted people to know that a 10 year old was winning, I was into Batman at the time so I thought of a villain. And viola. 98 being my birth year.
 
Many many moons ago, I used to be known as RydiaFromFF2. Rydia was my favorite char from Final Fantasy 4 and I took on her persona. "FromFF2" was a joke to the US copy of FF4 being labeled FF2.

about 5 years ago, a friend of mine showed me a game. I played it and latched onto the main char. Kit Ballard. The game? Blade Kitten. her personality matched my own much closer than Rydia's did and apperently I sound like her. So I took on her persona, even taking her into my name (Sally Kit Ballard) as I tend to accedently tell people the wrong last name.
 
yo, I like Sanosuke Sagara from Rurouni Kenshin
and Kaito Kumon is my favorite character in Kamen Rider Gaim
so yeah.

also RedRummage because while it's a reference to red rum, it's still a unique sounding name.
