Skreename was a horrible pun based on a Metroid enemy and the fact that it was my screenname. This is an abbreviation of said horrible pun, but should hopefully cut the misspellings in half.

I very definitely need a new and witty name, but I have no creative spark...

So I turned 10 and got this new video game for my birthday, right? And I was making a new file and needed a name. Well, the game happened to be Ocarina of Time (OMFG), so I merged my name with the game's name (as in "Zelda" and "Drew"). Zeldrew looks ridiculous because Drew is a weird name (argh wtf I have a weird name!) so I chopped of the weird part and kept the rest. "Rew" is just one of those combinations of letters that looks and sounds funny, you know?

You don't?

STUF [<-- not a typp (<-- that is though)]

(Btw my paper mario file name was "Mariew"; I am that ridiculous)

Like Danielle, my name seemed fitting.

I hate having to come up with nicknames. It's not like we're using our full names as aliases.

My current name is a byproduct of my Pokémon obsession. It was originally Vuplix, named after my Vulpix of the same name in my LeafGreen file, but after a certain IRC event it became Ninetales.

No, that's Grey's name.

A lot of us are, at a young age, instilled that REAL NAMES ON THE INTERNET IS EVIL!!! by our parents. It tends to stick.

I just don't want people calling me, like I know they would
My parents never went me warning about bad stuff on internets. Of course I kinda knew about the bad stuff back then anyway.

Oh, my name is based of Ailuro, greek word for cat. Not many who knows this though.

I got mt username while looking at a book full of hints and tips.
It was in a section for some game, and I picked up the word found the word h4x0r.
I put the a back in, removed the four, and had hax0r, and appended sir for unknown reasons. I couldnt think of anything else to put as a username, so I stuck with it, though my email is sirhax0rzero at g-mail.corn. Strange

I'm an aspiring writer of sorts.. So the current handle I'm using here happens to be from one of many characters in a story of mine, this one resembling me closest in personality and style so.. yea, it just sort made sense to use it.

My name is Josh Davis.

Contrary to the previous statement about parents warning us about using our real names on the internet, it was actually my dad that set up my AOL screen name as JDavis1186 (November '86) way back in '93. It stuck. In fact, I originally signed up on Acmlm's as JDavis1186, but I had the 1186 cut off following one Christmas season (2003, I think).

At the old board I was Koneko, the Japanese word for kitten, because back when I decided what I wanted to be known as Japanese was the coolest thing evar and Japanese words were always preferable to English ones.

FireHaven is a spell from Anvil of Dawn, one of the last of the first-person RPG games for the PC that only pretended to have 3D graphics. It was a mildly secret spell that was meant to protect you from fire but could cause some really weird glitches. Incidentally, AoD is awesome and if you haven't played it I feel very sorry for you.

Back in 2005, I made a fake AIM to prank one of my friends, and typed in Chainlink (as a reference to one of Donkey Kong Country 2's castle levels), and typed in random numbers at the end.

I joined here with that name, just because. Not really sure why the first time, since that was over a year ago. And I joined now with it, because I was known as Chainlink on the other board.

Speaking of board, I'm staying at this one; the other one isn't as good.

One Halloween at one of the earlier ABs, I renamed to TEH FUZY EVIL. Kyoufu Kawa is a loose translation.

I will eat the face of the next person to call me Dread River.
