What is the most overused online alias?
Let's face it. We have all seen those screenames based off insanely popular VG and Anime characters. Question is, which one do you see the most?

Anything that starts or ends with fire, angel, shadow, dark, or darkness. Especially if the total name doesn't make any sense.

Also, names that are purposely oxymoronic, like "holy evil" or "spontainious plan" or what-have-you. If they run together, that's a bit worse.

Numbers at the end are a little annoying in any place where your name is important. It's not that bad on, say, Starcraft or Hotmail, but on a message board it can be bloody frustrating.

So obviously names like darkangel11 or darkfire356745 are way low.

I HATE people that can't make up a good nickname of their own or are too dumb to use their real name instead of OMGFGGFGFGFHFG325764643SSJPLZTHX. Stop being so dumb, everyone.

Jesper, that reminds me of.

Before I switched to Kitten Yiffer I was considering taking my real name, which is Emil.

Then Anya came and did play around with my name.

ANYTHING THAT IS TAKEN FROM VARIOUS VIDEO GAMES, SHOWS, AND MOVIES! It starts with one person to be that name (Sephiroth, for example) then others keep adding numbers at the beginning and end of the same thing (Sephiroth1, Sephiroth39, etc.). I get so confused who is who and I think that it is the same person. That is REALLY annoying!

I believe Sephiroth is the most overused name. My reasons?

  • "Badass"-type.
  • Bishounen/Pretty Boy-type
  • Final Fantasy/Mainstream Character-type.
  • "Mature" Character-type.

    I think I might've covered them all..

    And as a side note, I've only seen lots of Kirby names in Kirby related boards. And even then, there's not as much Kirby names as I would expect.

    I've had this name for most of my internet life.. Probably like.. six years or more.. I remember I flipped out when I saw people waltzing around with "Kirby" in their name.. I thought they were trying to steal my originality

    Does that include me? :p

    From what I see, the most used alias is Draco. I have seen people use it on yahoo, AIM, message boards, pokemon, Final Fantasy, lots of stuff. It isnt that cool a name.

    I've seen Draco a lot as well. Especially when I used to play Pokemon. My brother and a friend had a Charizard and a Dragonite respectfully named Draco. The only Dragon type Pokemon I ever had was a Kingdra, but I named it Coirnav (EQ players may get the reference).

    My name was Gamefreak19 before.

    Intresting enough, I came up with the name myself. Almost. I get inspiration from a site which added freak in the end of all the names.

    My name would have been there... if I had submitted a guide. Which I never will do.

    uh.. don't YOU just use your first name?


    Anyway, I think the closest I ever got to a common name was MasterPKMN.. pokemon master.. everyone thought I was referring to the Smashing Pumpkins.

    That means that I hate people that use OMGFGGFGFGFHFG325764643SSJPLZTHX instead of their real name. OMGFGGFGFGFHFG325764643SSJPLZTHX is a bit harder to type than, say, Bob, Ashley or Jesper. Unless you're bashing your head against your keyboard.

    Heh, I'm not the only Gandalf in the forums, but as long I know some of other forums with my "clones" as well, I know they're no lamers at all
    I dislike any versions of way too popular names. I think it might be okay, if someone is the first one in a forum and takes a name like "Locke" or "Terra".
    They're original ones as long they are also adored of that game and didn't take it just for fun.
    I'm fond of the magician in LotR, but more of RnH (lik in my sig), but since I'm using a magic character avatar anyway, it just fits perfectly with me, keeping my name either for the saga and tha rest from that japanese RPG
    But my AIM screen name is ... ... nah, I know it sounds dumb, but I own it a very long time, "Gomorrha" was taken, so I simply added 21 after it, what was my age then

    I know a SSJ in a forum who is not dumb at all but a very mature person; this might be only one rare exception in the web
