What IS your "name"?

Monster Rancher Metropolis: The Cafe: Town Hall (Polls): Polls on Other Subjects: What IS your "name"?
By Lord_Durahan on Wednesday, February 20, 2002 - 09:08 am:

I saw a few names that caught my attention and was wondering where all of you got the names you use here(Lisa is an obvious one). Two specific ones are Alucard blue(I'm guessing Symphony of the Night, awsome game)and Lacan(guessing Xenogears, another awsome game).


By Omni Strunks on Wednesday, February 20, 2002 - 01:07 pm:

Omni Strunks

Omni ~ Taken from the coolest limit break IMO, Omnislash.

Strunks ~ Strunks is my actual nickname, due to when I parted my hair to look like Trunks...put my real name and Trunks together to get Strunks.


By Velo on Wednesday, February 20, 2002 - 05:00 pm:

My full online name is Velociraptor. Three years ago I was watching way too much Jurassic Park, and when I needed a new screen name I deicded this and it stuck. Velo is my nickname, which is also strangely French for bicycle.


By Automaton on Wednesday, February 20, 2002 - 07:10 pm:

My name came from the Magic: the Gathering Card from the Exodus Expansion, Mindless Automaton.


By danz on Wednesday, February 20, 2002 - 08:52 pm:

eh, I just named myself this for my ignmail account as DanZ, then I started to pronounce it dan's so it stuck. Elsewhere I'm Pie_Taster named after the AWESOME! ska band The Pietasters.


By Eagle Fierce on Thursday, February 21, 2002 - 02:45 am:

Eagle is my old high-school nickname, because I always had the fighting spirit and need for freedom. The Eagle and the Fox are my spirit animals. I used to use the analogy that we are all special animals, and was teased by the bullies about being shot down.

Fierce is actually my last name. Grimm translated to Enlish = Fierce. Fierce was a title once given to the equivalent of a "knight" back in the days of the nomadic tribes.


By Kurasu Soratobu on Thursday, February 21, 2002 - 02:53 am:

Kurasu Soratobu is Japanese.

Kurasu=Class
Soratobu=To Fly In The Sky

Which makes me: class flying in the sky?

Ok, the reason behind this is a misspelling and mistranslation: I wrote a character for a fanfic that I wanted to name 'Raven'. Raven (or crow) in Japanese is 'Karasu'. Due to a friend's mistranslation, it was rendered 'Kurasu'. And by the time I got corrected, I was known more as 'Kurasu' than my real name. So it stuck. :)


By torey_luvullo on Thursday, February 21, 2002 - 06:41 am:

torey luvullo is another misspelling...that of a journeyman utility infielder who began his career as a detroit tiger, then played for the rangers, yankees and indians, before ending his career in japan.


By Lord_Durahan on Thursday, February 21, 2002 - 08:41 am:

Wow, I'm glad so many people replied. But still no Lacan or Alucard blue to confirm my theory.


By Tigerbubble on Thursday, February 21, 2002 - 10:46 am:

Tigerbubble is my little way of saying Galum, which is the water-going sub-breed of Tiger. A Galum is a Tiger that lives in the ocean, and all monsters in the ocean make bubbles.
The reason i initially chose a Tiger (rather than just saying galum or galumbubble) was because it reminds me of my late dog (Benson), and is nearly the namesake of my still living cat (Tigger). So it only seemed right to stick with a Tiger.

PS: i'm not really sure why Tigers remind me of my late dog, since he was a Bichon Frise, maybe it's just the canine thing.


By Corpse on Thursday, February 21, 2002 - 12:43 pm:

I chose my handle "Corpse" for three reasons. One, it's the street name I'd be known by, if I still hung with some certain friends of mine. Two, it's been my rancher name since MR1. Three, the idea came to me when I bought a copy of Resident Evil 2 (brand new at the time) for only $6.66 off a friends little brother. (Don't ask how I got the idea to start using my online name Corpse outta this; even I haven't figured that out yet)


By Medjai on Thursday, February 21, 2002 - 08:05 pm:

Well if you've seen the recent Mummy movies then you'll know where this name came from.


By back2good on Friday, February 22, 2002 - 09:40 am:

my name is back2good. its my favourite song by my favourite band and i always go by the name back2good.yup. thats about it.


By Zidane on Wednesday, March 20, 2002 - 04:23 pm:

all this got me thinnkin. i want another name!
im tired of usin zidane all the time...


By Khift on Wednesday, March 20, 2002 - 04:34 pm:

I've gone by too many names, none of which had any real inspiration.

Originally I went by paj363, which is still my Hotmail address. Then wehn I joined Uo, I needed a good name for a fighter, so I named myself Jack Varukisas. When I made the name, I didn't realize it ended in 'kisas', which, sadly, sounds like something that a bad student might do in order to raise their grades. After my friend pointed that out, I panicked and wanted a new name. After looking through some of my MtG (Magic the Gathering) cards, I saw a card that I liked alot - Aether Flash. I liked Aether, so I dubbed myself Aetheri. After a while at Gamefaqs, I got tired of that name and wanted yet another new one. So I made Khift. I've stuck with it for almost half a year now, so it should stay permanently.


By lynx on Wednesday, March 20, 2002 - 06:38 pm:

By SCT on Thursday, March 21, 2002 - 04:55 pm:

My name started out as Sorta Crappy Trainer, but someone found it offense and I was asked to abbreviate it.


By Dreiz on Friday, March 22, 2002 - 07:17 pm:

My name comes from my favorite character from the roleplaying game Dungeons and Dragons (yes 3rd edition, 19 level cleric) His full name is Dreiz Grimshade.


By JsyHeat on Sunday, March 24, 2002 - 07:32 am:

Jsy = Joseph Sy (me)
Heat = The Miami Heat (my fave NBA team)


By Lord_Durahan on Monday, March 25, 2002 - 08:53 am:

I just realized that I never posted an answer to my own poll,

Lord- Ruler

Durahan- ...Durahan

Granted It's not poetry but I like it.


By Green Golem on Saturday, April 13, 2002 - 04:00 pm:

I'm posting this for my freinds

Cospr- Toa of War, stands for Cournal Sargent Private

Argulor- Big eagle form Redwall, he's a bookworm and doesn't get out much. also sadly he is hardly a monster rancher convert


By jello on Sunday, April 14, 2002 - 01:04 pm:

well i dont go by jello on all forums, but on this
one i do. when i first came to the board on b's
board i loved to train jells...so i gave myself the
name jelltrainer. after awhile i thought it was
kinda stupid and unoriginal, and since my
friends called me 'jell' or 'jello' for short, the
name jello kinda just stuck and i use it for this,
my email and another forum.

there...now stop asking me if i really like jello!


By KefkaRox2002 on Sunday, April 14, 2002 - 02:01 pm:

I got mine (Kefka) from the AWESOME game Final
Fantasy VI (III in the US). I use Kefka on practically
every message board...Hey i should probably make an
sn on AIM that has kefka =P

Dude, any guy who can poison a whole kingdom just by
putting poison into a river is instantly cool ^_____~


By Khift on Sunday, April 14, 2002 - 02:33 pm:

Lol, that was funny, when it happened. Seriously, that'd be pretty durn hard to do.


By Lord_Durahan on Wednesday, April 17, 2002 - 06:06 am:

By newdragon on Wednesday, April 17, 2002 - 01:33 pm:

my name is just not good.
new- being fairly new to this site
dragon-my favorite monster to train and beat the other monsters with


By Lacan on Friday, April 19, 2002 - 09:04 pm:

I got the name Lacan from the game Xenogears. Hey it was either that or I would end up using names that I luckly didn't, like SuperMoo, Hipster, CrazyPixieFan, or Groove.


By lovesaurian on Friday, May 10, 2002 - 07:19 pm:

lovesaurian was something i made up on the spur of the moment when i was asking about the hot springs on the old message board. i wanted it to be something-saurian, as my fav. monsters at the time were the zuums. my friend (sitting next to me) suggested love, and thus, lovesaurian. i don't like it that much, but i don't like change, so looks like i'm stuck for it. :) i'm known in most other places as either Lisa (my real name) Greywords or Lisa Ri. why? if you watch slayers of fushigi yuugi you should be able to figure it out.


By JoeSecurity on Friday, May 10, 2002 - 10:58 pm:

Lets see.. well i'm usually known as Prozac or some variation of since on most boards (Like this one) it was taken, but today in theatre workshop we were writing our own plays and then I was "JoeSecurityGuard" I don't know. Its fun, i go around sniffing the audience.


By terance on Saturday, May 11, 2002 - 07:48 am:

my name


By Infinite Joker on Sunday, May 12, 2002 - 06:27 am:

Infinite as in never dying, and eternal... with a never stopping number

And Joker is my favorite monster, put them together and you get a never dying, never stopping Joker.


By torey_luvullo on Sunday, May 12, 2002 - 07:54 am:

ij, i've seen your name as both "infinite joker" and "infinite jokers". as long as names are the topic, which is right?[or is it both?]


By Infinite Joker on Monday, May 13, 2002 - 04:05 am:

well on MR.com I use it with an S... but i didn;t mean to, when i first registered. But over here I perfer using it without an "S" as it was originally suppose to be. But, I still slip sometimes and put an s at the end, so either one is fine. they are both me.


By torey_luvullo on Monday, May 13, 2002 - 06:16 am:

ok - i will try to use the "without s" variation.


By hengers rock on Monday, May 13, 2002 - 12:39 pm:

I made this name on josies old board, cuz I had just raised a henger, and it rocked. as I moved to different boards, I decided to just keep the same name.


By Omni Strunks on Monday, May 13, 2002 - 07:15 pm:

Lol.....

It's been a year, and I still don't know what Mepersoner means, or where he got it from...


By mepersoner on Monday, May 13, 2002 - 08:02 pm:

And you never will.

As for Jokers_Avenger, he made that name because I continually beat him down so he started training a lot of jokers to "avenge" his other monsters. Too bad only one joker ever beat any of my monsters...


By Infinite Joker on Tuesday, May 14, 2002 - 03:32 am:

Yeah actually.... I would like to know too, I have not the slightest clue, on what Mepersoner could mean.


By torey_luvullo on Tuesday, May 14, 2002 - 04:13 am:

just for myself, i think every "me" is a person, and no "me" is any "personer" than any other...

but that's just me...


By Monster Fenrick on Tuesday, May 14, 2002 - 07:20 am:

LOL.. Torey's Logic..

Mosnter Fenrick:

Originally Fenrick was my First RPG (D&D) Character name. he was the Dashing Elf (Fighter / Mage). I played him as an over charismatic Han-solo.

Most of my "Serious, hardcore" D&D friends thought this was outrageously funny.. and so started actually calling me "Fenrick". it became a nickname, and so when I got my first computer with e-mail addresses they became Fenrick so my friends could remember.

Monster came into play as I started getting online with the Mosnter Rancher stuff... and so was evolved into the Main/Sub of Monster Fenrick.

(of course i am still named Frendric, frankie, fendrik amongst many many other misspellings.. i didn't realize it was that hard to spell)


By Djinnmastr on Tuesday, May 14, 2002 - 10:16 pm:

Djinnmastr is a combination of Djinn, which is from Magic: The Gathering, and Master, which is a person who is in charge of something. Back in the day, when i played MTG, Djinn's were insanely powerful cards that had a tendancy to damage their owners. Another card similar to Djinn was Efreet, and, although i'm not sure, i think Djinns are Genies and Efreets are Ifrits (Like in Final Fantasy, i dunno the mythological meaning) So why do i still use this name even though i don't play M:TG, and why do i use it without an "E" in Mastr? Because I signed up for AOL many years ago, back when there was a 10 character limit on the names, and I never wanted to change it, since this is what people knew me as. Its that simple


By Velo on Wednesday, May 15, 2002 - 04:47 am:

I like how you put your Mosnter typo in the beginning......it was all on purpose right? ;)


By torey_luvullo on Wednesday, May 15, 2002 - 06:38 am:

actually, the "mosnter" typo has a long and storied history...the first guy who said it, iirc, is the guy with glasses who runs the training center in mr1.


By Velo on Wednesday, May 15, 2002 - 03:08 pm:

aha, neat


By Flare Reiketsu on Friday, May 17, 2002 - 11:31 am:

Flare Reiketsu-Since 1st grade (I'm in 9th now) i've used Flare, and Reiketsu is Japanese for something like 'blood and gore'or some such thing (it's been awhile since i adopted it)

Khefka is the essence of the Scary Evil Clown


By Plastic on Friday, May 24, 2002 - 06:25 pm:

I got the name Plastic from the awesome portal PlasticMan.Org. After it was shutdown, I started using Plastic as my name for everything. I'm known as PlasticDragon, PlasticBahamut, PlasticNirvana, PlasticSkeleton, and PlasticSword


By PixieMan on Sunday, May 26, 2002 - 10:03 pm:

I picked PixieMan for the reason i love Pixies they are my favorite monsters and they're kinda cute (do not read if you are PERVERTED!!!)


By Mega Dragon on Saturday, June 1, 2002 - 07:14 pm:

my name is usually mega dragon or dragon and sometimes blue eyes ultima dragon i just love dragons!:) (you might know that blue eyes ultima dragon from the show yu-gi-oh


By The D on Saturday, June 1, 2002 - 07:18 pm:

The D. I got that because My name is David. So my friends came up with nicknames, and I was The D.


By Harehound5 on Sunday, June 2, 2002 - 01:11 pm:

I like Hares, Tigers, and most of all the sub-breed of the two. Five is my lucky number.


By phatlad on Monday, July 29, 2002 - 07:54 am:

My nickname comes like this. Although know one calls me "phatlad" (everyone calls me bigdaddy), here's how I got fatlad.
My friends and I were playing a golf game on sega, and you could only have six characters maximum to enter your name.
I have what you would call a weight problem, and I tend to poke fun of myself a lot (all in good humor, I'm a funny guy). So, I chose the largest golfer of the bunch and put the name "fatlad" as his name.
Anywho, about a year later, the "ph" craze swept the nation (around the time of the atlanta olympics, I believe). I was getting into online stuff and set up a yahoo! email account, and fatlad already was taken so I chose "phatlad" to be funny. (my friends and I always prounced the ph on purpose to be funny, like the p-hat farm, instead of the fat farm. I know, we're so crazy!)
Since then, I've just kept it for every thing I've joined online. either that or the alternate "phatladok" for oklahoma.


By Green Reaper on Monday, July 29, 2002 - 01:03 pm:

well green is my favorite color and joker (along with worm and gaboo)is one of my favorite monsters. and since joker reminds me of reaper with his scyth i picked green reaper as my online name.


By Djinnmastr on Monday, July 29, 2002 - 11:14 pm:

i still want to know what Mepersoners name stands for... is it just me, or does anyone else think of smeagol/gollum when they hear "Mepersoner?" I dunno, it just sounds like something he would say

"Yes, my precious, yes, we musssst keeps it from the nasty little mepersoners, yes precious..."


By Hare Brained on Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 12:41 am:

Guess why i picked my name...

Because i like monols, of course!


By Animatrix4 on Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 04:22 pm:

I combined two things I like a lot, anime and Matrix. The "4" came when I tried to use animatrix as my sn on AIM, but numbers 1 thru 3 were taken.


By LanceHeart on Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 05:37 pm:

LanceHeart (wery well separated) is quite complex...

I made the name when I got my first heartbreak.
Instead of an arrow in my heart, it was a lance.

Here is my oh-so-famous sig from many boards (you'll find it even by searching "LanceHeart" on Yahoo!):
"My Heart has been pierced by a Lance, hence my name, LanceHeart!"

The purpose of this nick soon changed and became my explanation to my affinity with lances.

I even try to get the lance FIRST of all the monster-items in MR2!


By Yamcha on Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 08:11 am:

By Vince_V_ on Sunday, August 18, 2002 - 08:25 pm:

Ummm, Vince is my name...
No, actually i just like the name and apparently plain Vince was already taken, so...


By CHONAS009 on Tuesday, August 20, 2002 - 04:42 pm:

PS [CSF]Zidane is that u?

By Xervis on Wednesday, August 21, 2002 - 11:46 am:

my name, Xervis, is something I made up one day whiel trying to spell the name of an old NES game(Xevious if your wondering). I was trying to confuse a friend on a chat site in class. he never caught on.


By Sartugha on Tuesday, September 3, 2002 - 05:14 am:

While I was pondering a name to use for MUDing, i kept trying different names, and finally this one stuck. Ever since, i have yet to find a board/MUD/online RPG/Fremail account that has this name taken.

And if I suddenly find it start being taken, some heads are gunna roll ;)


By Rovest R. Yakuto on Friday, September 6, 2002 - 10:42 pm:

Well my Full Name now is Rovest Rova Yakuto
Threw 7 years of Online naming. My name Has gone from Josh to Rovest R. Yakuto threw over 30 evolutions. Josh, JJpm *pokemon manster*, Grewlithra, Mechalithe, MetalGarurumon, Rover, Roven, Rovun. Then another 22 names starting with R. The longest being name is Revinmao Mukintho Yenrakio * a name for a friends story*. The longest one word name is KawaiiTsunoTiger * you may have seen it on the DW3 or MR3 messageboards* But I've mainly used Rovest.


By Alai667 on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 12:34 am:

A= indicating a single item
lai(lie)=an untruth
667= between666 and 668

no actually, Alai is an awesome Mage/Assassin type character I made up for stories. He is Half high elf/Half dark elf and attacks with twin magic swords. Durall Racks the victims with pain while Durath shatters their sanity.just thought I'd say it even if no one wanted to know....oh and it would have been 666 to indicate the darker side of Alai's nature but I had to change it for intolerant GameFAQ's


By Chibi Silverfox on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 06:24 am:

Silver - quick
fox - clever, my fave animal

I go by chibi silverfox or torrent silverfox every where except on Gamefaqs.com then i'm kageboushi.


By GoldenBoy on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 03:13 pm:

All the Young'uns in chat ask if it's Golden Boy "from the anime?" and I say no.

For me Golden Boy is the name of one of my best heroes from the Champions Superhero RPG (though I'm sure Thorr will contest the "best" par). Simply imagine a 6' 8" Oscar statue, without a sword, and you have a good handle on GB. GB has been converted into a Rifts Earth version as well, so I could use him for a friend's campaign.

GB isn't a genius, unless you ask him about comic books, kick boxing, or being a hero, but he gets by. He's managed to become one of the government's "top men" simply by being reliable and personable, and capable of stopping artillery shells with his chest and lifting a tank. He's an all-round good guy and a lot of fun to roleplay.


By Windine_Rancher on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 04:43 pm:

Windine_Rancher>....
it shouldn't take much

Windine- Pixie/Goat in MR3
Rancher-Obvious...

yet, my chat name Xoshiro...
thats something i made up on my own time...
i use it for mostly roleplays... but as far as i know there is no other way to explain it.

Xoshi -Yoshi
shiro- shiro.
basically thats the way it is suppose to be... anyway... good luck ranchers.


By Mewger on Friday, January 24, 2003 - 06:16 pm:

oh, well my name isn't as creative, just took my favorite MRA monster name, and there you go..
But I do have another nickname, Kawakami, named so after a trainer in a pokemon game, whose name struck me as awesome, so I wrote it down, and for most other internet things(except ScytheGirl in the char, that was made up on the spot), that's what I go by...
(You can find Kawakami outside Fushia(sp?) City, out the right gate, where all the people are standing and there is a bit of grass. Going up reveals a VEEERY long path back to lavender. She's a teacher, so if you have the game, go find her, if you're reeeealy bored.)


By Kishe on Monday, January 27, 2003 - 06:21 pm:

Hmmm...

Well if anybody has played Revelations: The Demon Slayer, you would know where the name 'Kishe' comes from. Kishe is arguably the best character in almost any RPG (Except for a select few characters from the FF series and other RPG's...)
Kishe is the Second character you get in the game. Although he is not the main character(El is the main character, FYI), he is the best character in the game.( Except for maybe Lucifer)
Only Kishe and Lucifer get the strongest spell in the game, Holy 3(So powerful!!!)


By Eric B on Monday, January 27, 2003 - 07:10 pm:

well Eric is kinda my name. and b stands for Bowie my last name. im clever


By Divine Dragoon on Saturday, February 1, 2003 - 02:42 pm:

Divine Dragoon-In the PSX game legend of Dragoon, there are 8 main dragons, and the 8 Dragon knights or the Dragoons. The divine is the strongest one of them of all. My other message board and chat names are
pokemonandrew-used but I only regularly use it on gamefaqs, picked it because hey, who else is gonna.
OROCHI-Orochi is a serpent with 8 heads in Jap. mythology, or a villain who's a god in King of Fighters. Has a very deep storyline.
OROCHI1017-Well, orochi with my b-day put in cuz OROCHI was taken.


By Infernus on Sunday, February 2, 2003 - 11:18 am:

Infernus...
Inferno, but in a kind of name form. Nobody got the idea that I was one of those things that keeps your house warm (furnace) did they? I know people who have...Eric Bowie...I know you...I think...E-mail me a question to prove it or something...oh the irony of it all...I really have to stop with the dots...lol...


By Infernus on Sunday, February 2, 2003 - 12:29 pm:

Oops! That should be e-mail me a question and I'll prove it.

ummmmmmmm........ i just like dairy
monstrosities,
i am also known as :
cheese_zilla,
darth_dairy, and
big_evil_cheese


By Daeore Dermegil on Wednesday, March 5, 2003 - 01:49 pm:

My first nickname was from a character I made for 'Vampire-Dark Ages' Ly'fandes. (say the name slow, you'll get the joke)

Next, a few years later, I was still into the whole vampire game thing, and made this name. Daeore Dermegil. I had a book of 'English to Elvish; (by J.R.R. Tolkein)
Dae = Shadow
Ore = Heart
Der = Dark
Megil = Sword

The end result was Daeore Dermegil. (said: Day'or'eh Der'me'guile )

I've always been a sword freak. I have a nice little collection already too. So, I really liked this name. Sounded good on and off paper.

I even wrote fanfiction (sailor moon, I know I know no stones please) with him in it. And have used the name ever since.


By Pyernranjarth on Wednesday, March 5, 2003 - 07:36 pm:

My name is a misspelling of a creature of my favory book The Neverending Story. The Creature is Name Pyernranjat but I Like to add an extra letter so that my be de "H". This creature is similar to a Golem.


By S y n r e on Wednesday, March 5, 2003 - 07:56 pm:

Mine is just something I pulled out of the air... use it for pretty much all RPGs if I want to change the charectors name or if I get to design the charector, and for paper and pencil stuff...

Synre's D&D Class: Runelord(custom, from a book series)/Dragoon (custom, but aquired from a website)

Little info on him as a charector...
Hair: Black
Eyes: Red(like my contacts =P)

I dont consider him to be "me" by any means, but I've found I've role-played as him enough where my personality is similar to the one I gave him than it used to be. Scary.


By Mick_barnes on Thursday, March 6, 2003 - 12:58 am:

It is my real name. Well abreviated. My full name is Michael James Barnes.


By Pyernranjarth on Thursday, March 6, 2003 - 12:57 pm:

Another of my nicknames is Digi-Destin,that I got it from the Cartoon Name Digi-Monsters. I Just Have 2 nicknames


By Gizmo the Lemur on Sunday, April 20, 2003 - 07:58 pm:

My mrm name came from an actual Beanie Baby named Gizmo (yup, it's a Lemur). The Gizmo's beanie is my fav. b/c it's birthdate is the same as my b-date.

I got my chat name from my dog. :P

On GameFAqs, I go by NoobForever just to see if I can throw some people off with my name when I post stuff (heh heh).

By Arakeshi Saner on Saturday, April 26, 2003 - 06:41 pm:

BTW, my name is Arakeshi Saner now, not Flare
Reiketsu.
'tis an extreme alteration of my actual name (Alexei
Samolsky). Plus, Saner is a spell from Phantasy Star,
one of the best series of all time!


By That Naga Chick on Sunday, July 20, 2003 - 12:21 am:

I have been role playing MR Nagas for years, and I love them. I draw them whenever I get a chance, I have a MR1 game that has gone on for 100 years raising little but Nagas. I like snakes. I like the color purple. I am female. I detest telling people my real name. THUS!

That Naga Chick is a befitting title. ^_~

By Trousle on Sunday, September 28, 2003 - 12:31 pm:

My full online name is Trousle Undrhil. I picked Trousle because it's a mispelling of Trouble. Don't ask why I was going to use Trouble Undrhil for a name ... cause I wasn't. =) Trousle just sounded cool. And, no ... I didn't get Undrhil from The Lord of the Rings. I never even read the trilogy until someone asked me if that was where I got my name. I actually got the name Undrhil from the name of the street I used to live on in Orlando, FL (Lake Underhill Rd.) I originally was using Underhill, but when I tried to get the name on AOL once, it was being used, so I shortened it to Undrhil and I haven't changed it back. =)

By Agwe on Sunday, November 23, 2003 - 02:02 pm:

I played the character of Agwe the god of water in my first musical "Once On This Island". Other than that I go by Irishgodofwater because I am blatantly Irish.


By Hellraiser83 on Sunday, November 23, 2003 - 02:47 pm:

Fun fun fun.

Well, tracing real far back I was once known as Weirdo1983. I was weird and my birthyear is 1983. I then got interesting in nwn (the old aol freeware version) and changed to DL Ambush (a combination of my DragonLord guild and Ambush, my soccer team). Now it starts getting relevant. A friend got me into gundam wing. By far my favorite gundam was Deathscythe. It had a special version called Deathscythe-Hell. Said friend gets me into an aol chatroom RPG, but I have to change my name to something related to the gundam I want to play. Hellscythe sounds good. It's taken, so I add 83 to it. There's Hellscythe83. I ended up never playing the game, but the aol account stuck ^_^; Now comes the old m-r.com board. I need a name. I was going to just use Hellscythe83, but then my brother suggests that since I'm going to be ranching I should change it to raiser. Bam, Hellraiser83 is born. I spent a brief time as CPraiser83, but this name is definitely going to stick.


By King952 on Sunday, November 23, 2003 - 08:11 pm:

I had just gotten the internet (AOL 4.0). I was into cards at the time and had the king of hearts as the top card in a deck that was right in front of me...
King was taken so I just slamed random numbers to the end, put 'the' and "THE KING952" was born... The name stuck for well, over 6 years or so... Until I wasn't allowed to use spaces or underscores for this one game I have... So I've been using King952 for over 2-3 years now...


By Da_Mullet on Sunday, November 23, 2003 - 08:32 pm:

I am Da Mullet! to my friends, enimies, neutral persons, and everyone else. thus the title. It is a hairstyle. get it? And about the Mepersoner thing, it could be a cat sitting on the keyboard, then walking away. My cat, during the mr4 adventure sequence, sat on the controller, walked in a straight line, fought and ko'd a monster, and didn't get hit once. Really, I do not lie.


By TheSillygoth on Sunday, November 23, 2003 - 09:45 pm:

Mine's fairly self explanatory, I'd say.

Though I do classify myself, and get classified by others as a goth, I'm far more vocal and cheery than your average vampy fan/babybat.

Sillygoths are a slowly growing subset of the goth population, trademarked by their insanely inappropriate senses of humor, as well as their generally friendly and happy demeanor around other goths.

And at least in my hometown and surrounding areas, nobody tops me in terms of black humour and inappropriate behavior. Therefore I'm "The" Sillygoth in my neck of the woods.


By Red Hare on Monday, November 24, 2003 - 03:37 am:

And I thought Hellraiser83 had something to do with the classic scary movie by Clive barker. ;p


By Nephre-nara on Monday, November 24, 2003 - 03:56 pm:

mine on here is Nephre-nara. It's a name I made up for a roleplaying character, she's an anthropomorphic cheetah/type.

SillyGoth, since I'm a gothy girl, I gotta ask, do you like Voltaire? I bet he'd be right up your alley.


By Endless Vision on Monday, November 24, 2003 - 06:47 pm:

I picked Endless Vision because when my parents were in the midst of getting divorced, all I heard was fighting and screaming and I couldn't take it anymore. So I would sit in my room and just close my eyes and imagine. I would imagine about such awesome things, and it seemed almost as if it were a "vision". And since I never wanted to leave and go back to the real world, I would hope it would be "endless". Thus, comes the name Endless Vision.


By Magic Pink on Tuesday, November 25, 2003 - 09:50 am:

Magic Pink was the first character I ever made for a video game that I could make EXACTLY as I wanted. She was in Phantasy Star Online and was incredibly short and pink. I loved playing her and sunk HOURS into that game. I had to use that name to get her into the Pinkal Section ID so I took her name as my screen name after that.


By TheSillygoth on Tuesday, November 25, 2003 - 11:41 am:

Nephre-nara:

I'm very into Voltaire. I think "Vampire Club" is the funniest song in the history of goth culture. (Not that there's really a long list of funny goth tunes.)


By Nephre-nara on Tuesday, November 25, 2003 - 02:30 pm:

SillyGoth: Yay! Another Voltaire fan. My evil looking tiger is named Volt, after V. And if you like Vampire club, listen to his Banned on Vulcan stuff, makes you laugh hard!
He's awesome to see live and to meet in person, too. I met him at Dragon Con 2003. Met Rogue from the Cruxshadows too.

Magic Pink: I remember playing all the Phantasy Stars, but I never tried the PSO. I can see why you'd be happy though, being able to make a char with short, pink hair :)


By TheSillygoth on Tuesday, November 25, 2003 - 03:23 pm:

Nephre-nara:

I'll have to check out the Banned on Vulcan stuff, for sure.

I met the Cruxshadows...can't say I was terribly impressed, as they were in "Pretentious Goth" mode.

Thankfully in the same week, I got to hang out with the Electric Hellfire Club, Razed in Black, Al Jourgenson and Mikey Goldfinger from Ministry, Gunter and En Esch from KMFDM, Tim Skold in extreme passing, and Mandy Fuhr from the Thrill Kill Kult, so that made up for it. :) (I'm a bit of an industrial rivethead.)

Wow...I can't believe the level of namedropping I just did! I'm vaguely embarrassed, but not enough to prevent posting this message.


By Red_star_durahan on Tuesday, November 25, 2003 - 03:42 pm:

Ok mine:

Red_Star, I put this because I am a great believer in socialism and a red star is an object that represents it (the hammer and the sickle are also representations of socialist and communist movements).

Durahan, My favorite monster.


By Lord Avalon on Tuesday, November 25, 2003 - 10:58 pm:

I've always loved the story of King Arthur and the Knights of the round table. Any of you who have read the legends of Arthur you know that Avalon is the summer kingdom ruled by the king of the Fairy folk. Also if you watched the Gargoyles tv show.
So I took the idea of the kingdom and wanted to rule it, hence Lord. So I became Lord Avalon, and used it in almost all of my online personas.

By Greywulf on Tuesday, December 2, 2003 - 04:22 pm:

On various boards, I have tried to set my name as "GrayWolf" Many times, I had to choose something else because it was a name being used. Eventually, I discovered no one ever uses "Greywulf" so voila.


By Bloodluvingirl on Tuesday, December 2, 2003 - 07:29 pm:

I hate names with numbers stuck on the end. So while I was trying to come up with a good name for a Yahoo account, one that hadn't been used before, I ended up sitting there for over an hour and a half with no luck. I was getting very pissed off and frustrated so I just put in Bloodluvingirl in desperation, (I had been watching a lot of Buffy and had vampires on the mind) and voila! It worked! And I liked it! And now everywhere I go, I'm the only one who's using the name. The only trouble is that it's a bit long, so sometimes I end up being Jinxanna, but that's very rare.


By Red_star_durahan on Wednesday, December 3, 2003 - 03:57 pm:

Steelx, maybe your name comes from the pokemon steelx?


By Brick on Sunday, December 28, 2003 - 11:37 am:

Ehe... Well, when I was a wee girly, I used to watch the powerpuff girls, and my favourite episode was when they met their male equivelants, the rowdyruff boys. There was Boomer, Brick and Butch, and for a while i used Boomer, but I got bored of that, and started using Brick! So, I've been using that name for years now:P


By Brick on Sunday, December 28, 2003 - 11:38 am:

Hmm... Come to think of it, I don't know why me being a little girl chose a boys 'name'... :P

By Centrius on Saturday, March 6, 2004 - 11:25 am:

I have no idea where my name comes from. I either made it up one day or just saw it. But I just like how it sounds ^_^


By MangleBoP on Tuesday, March 9, 2004 - 06:35 pm:

Ok,buckle up, it's going to be a bumpy ride!
So my best friend has been playing HalfLife online and is part of a clan called the Brotherhood of Pain{BoP}. Then he and his buddies start using their clan names for other stuff. We join a medevil renenactment group called DagorHir.
My friend wants to start his own faction{BoP}. I want to join said faction, and need a name. So my other friend suggests Mangle because of my vicious, unrelenting style of fighting.

Mangle: verb, to crush, maul, grind, or cut roughly and repeatedly; to fold laundry[see horror film "The Mangler"]

So then we start making up ideas as to what our charecters are.
Body Count: Demon,possesing the body of another charecter.
Twist: Wraith, likes to destroy people's minds. Plague: Unknown.
Mangle: Unspeakable Horror, built out of parts still twitching after large inter-species conflict.

I have also gone by Zyko{psyko} and Coyote, but will not be using the name Coyote anymore because one of my new friend's real name is Coyote Laughs At The Devil.

I too consider myself something of a Goth, but get sick of the pretentious trendy bull$#!+ that Goths must always be gloomy,pale,bored-with-everything,elitist snobs. That steriotype died with those stupid punks in Columbine, who ruined Goth for the rest of us!

I live in Florida,and am Multi-Ethnic, a deathly palor does not come naturally to me.The local Goths would not acept me as one of their's, so I took on a sort of Grunge/Goth look, it works for me.

Coyote, BTW, introduced me to Voltaire's music and it rocks!

P.S. Ender, I thought that was where you got that name!


By alphamone on Saturday, July 24, 2004 - 05:49 pm:

By orangestar on Monday, July 26, 2004 - 04:31 am:

I got mine from a game called advance wars 2. I liked the name so I chose it as my board name.


By King Moogle on Monday, July 26, 2004 - 04:47 pm:

My name naturally comes from the Final Fantasy series; I am a huge fan of it, particularly the old-school games and FFX. Moogles are small, white, cat-like creatures with wings (usually red) and a furry pom-pom like thing on their head. If I recall correctly, moogle in Japanese is Mogryu, which means cat-bat. Yeah. Someone may be able to correct me there, though.

Mine is the main character from the manga One Piece. Its not my favorite, I just liked the name.
My brother's, Soniku, is Sonic(the hedgehog)s japanese name.

i think mepersoner might have been meant to be something along the lines of "merperson", but thats probably not it. It could be an anagram for "mereperson"


By Chessmaster Vex on Wednesday, November 24, 2004 - 09:46 pm:

My name came from a show called Cowboy Bebop about bounty hunters that used to be on Adult Swim. My sister got me to watch it. In one episode, theres an old guy who has never lost at chess. THen he plays vitrual chess with a wierd 12 year old girl on board the bounty hunters ship. it ends in a draw then he dies. How sad. His name was Chessmater hex, but I didnt know that due to the buildup of earwax that obscures my hearing and makes things sound all jumbled together.


By Tilimicus on Thursday, November 25, 2004 - 09:27 am:

my name came from the name of a rpg character I created back in 1987. My baby sister had a friend and told me "I'm going to tell you a name,and I'm going to ask you in a few years what his name is. His name is Tilimicus Nix." I said ok.
One of my fellow gamers (and best friend) thought it would be cool if our characters were brothers. His character (Mace Shun-Di {pronounced shun dee}) was already in play,and I figured it would be an easy way to remember the name.Tilimicus Shun-Di was born.


By Magma_Bird on Monday, December 13, 2004 - 12:50 pm:

Well, its been a while since ive used this name.

I decided to call myself this because at that time i had just gotten a phoenix in MR2 and had seen/beaten the blue phoenix, so i decided to make my own phoenix/? type name... and this is it.


By lileave on Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - 03:26 pm:

Ok, my name Lileave came from pokemon, i caught a tangela and i almost always nickname my pokemon, so sice he has leaves, and he's very little its lileave.

P.S. SteelX,i know your secret, kinda obvious.


By windrunner on Saturday, March 26, 2005 - 08:57 pm:

I got windrunner because I like Tiger of the Wind from
the show. Even when I was in junior high I had a thing
for speed demons with bad attitudes. Plus, my fav color
is blue and woofies are soo cute!
I have a lot of other names, like:
Maringa- made that one up off the top of my head for a
character that's based off myself.
vampyre_smiles- I end a few of my posts with vampire
smilies (^,-,^) and I like the alternate spelling.
shukumei- means 'destiny' in Japanese. I feel I'm
destined to get to Japan some day.
Well, enough of my rambling...

Whoah! Never thought MRM have so many members! (no offense) Since I've never seen some names before. It was like: "Oh really?! There was somebody of this name here?!"
I haven't checked the b-day calendar yet so that's why I'm surprised to see some names...
Mine?
I only saw it in the dictionary, then I started to use it (can't remember what it means)

By Sensei Le Roof on Tuesday, March 28, 2006 - 07:05 pm:

Le Roof is from Phantasy Star IV. I "elected" the name in my first days on a web-board for the game series, where I'd initially posted under a handle I adopted for a different board. "Sensei" was added after noticing I tended to be answering a lot of questions there... and it looked better in front than behind like it would traditionally be placed.

By Heat on Saturday, May 20, 2006 - 10:37 am:

From Digital Devil Saga. Back before the game was released in Japan they started releasing screenshots, and there was one or two of Heat. I thought he looked cool and started using the name, as I had been trying to figure out a name to use for a while.

Didn't really like the games (the main Shin Megami Tensei series is better), but I still use Heat just because I still can't think of anything else. And he's probably the only character in the game I can stand.

By Daegen on Friday, May 26, 2006 - 09:32 am:

Daegen is kinda round about, but here it is anyways. I was looking for a name to use on World of Warcraft and every other MMO I play, and wanted something original. So, I got out my huge webster dictionary. I looked through for cool words, and thought "Dagger" is pretty cool. So I looked it up, and took the root Gaelic (ancient Scottish and Irish) for that word, which is Daga, and then stylised it.


By Kyrinis on Friday, May 26, 2006 - 12:45 pm:

I am a HUGE (/HUGE/) Avatar: The Last Airbender fan, and I'm kinda obsessed with one of the villains, Azula. Her name starts and ends with the same letter, so I repeat her name twice to get "Azulazulazula".
