Where did you get your name?

[Lighting]

My nickname in the internet was born in a clan, sonic's clan, to enter in that clan, you have to made a character, the, I maded my character and name him lighting, after that, lighting becomes my internet name

[Cyclone]

this topic is good, so *bump*  

[Free Hugs!]

When I had just started playing Ghouls Versus Humans (which was, what, two weeks ago?), I got killed by Creepers a lot.  I noticed that the picture appearing on your screen when killed by a Creeper could be interpreted as him hugging a player to death.  Naturally when it was my turn to go as a ghoul, I played as Creeper a lot, making comments like "that was a good hug!" after killing someone.   So now my F1 to F5 keys are bound to various comments like that.  My name was then taken from the "Free Hugs!" meme.  I haven't came up with a better name since, so it may stay that way for a while.

[sexypred]

Well lets just say im a hardcore aliens vs predators fan
And i love the thrill of sneaking up to someone in Gvh or Whodunnit and taking them out silently and being undetected reh reh reh :

 my name is club> Mr. pr3d
some might know me as [MLK]PR3DATOR
im using this user name because PR3DATOR was taken

[Ivory]

I'd thought I would bump this thread, seeing as Cutstuff has grown so much since it died off. Bound to have a new round of name origins.

So to start, I'll restate mine. Only with a bit more detail.

The complete name is actually Ivory Sniper. It created as a spur of a moment when I started getting back into Skulltag Multiplayer, specifically due to GvH. So I combined two things. the ivory plant, the ivory colour, and an elite archer. Result, Ivory Sniper. When I joined Cutstuff, I decided to just use the Ivory part. It has since stuck as plain Ivory, to the point that now a days if I do use the name on skulltag, it's just Ivory. Though I will attach the Sniper part if needed.

[Mr. X]

Contrary to what was probably assumed by all given my avatar, Mr. X was NOT a reference to Mega Man or any video game...or anything for that matter.  It was some random figure-less character my brother and I made up that was essentially "what would an idiot say/do in this situation?"  Eventually, "an idiot" became Mr. X.  That's the best explanation I can give, but it's far from full.

[brawlman9876]

brawlman9876 was way before i thought of the master. brawl man was made to be mega man related but i never thought of actually making a master til later. 9876 was out of pure random. i literary closed my eyes and slid my and down my keyboard, and well there ya go.

[Lio]

I got mine back in middle school, which was like 5 years ago. I used to draw a lot, made my own characters and such. I was always bad with names, and I was proud of my name back then, so I named one of my characters Lio. Eventually, my friends started calling me that too, so I got used to it. Now it's the alias I use practically everywhere, even though I tend to add a "cool" last name to it.

[Korby]

I got mine years ago(I forgot how many).
One day, I drew Kirby for who knows what reason, then, my older brother came in and drew on it. In the end, he ended up looking like this:

There's a gradient because whatever.
Anyway, I said "You ruined my Kirby drawing!"
His reply was, "No, his name is Korby now. Completely different character."

And THAT is how Korby was made. No typo, just a mean older brother(who's actually pretty awesome, and is pretty good at piano).

[Namo]

Coulda swore there was one of these topics already.

As a lad of 8 I was writing a comic about a boy who climbed to heaven.  I couldn't think of a name, and the word "Namco" was flashing around my head after playing the Tower of Druaga for the last hours.  So I removed the C.

[Max]

Capcom made the name for me.

[Camo Yoshi]

Lol.

I got my name back when I was 12, and started playing Mario Kart DS Online. Originally I was BoltmanX, (no relation the Mega Man, sorry) because my avatar was a lightning bolt. Then I eventually changed to Camo Yoshi, because I always use Yoshi in Mario Kart and I like Camouflage. The avatar was from the nSider forums before it closed down, and I now I always use it for my avatar.

Oh, and you can just call me "Camo", for short.  

[Blueiscooltoo]

hmm, When I was 12 and I was registering on Gamefaqs, it wanted a user name. I didn't know what I wanted as my user name and the first thing that came to my mind was I liked the blue and white color scheme of Gamefaqs. I thought, "Blue is cool too" and it became my user name.

For some reason, I kept thinking your name was Blues is cool too instead of Blue. Don't I feel like a donkey now...

Anyways, name origin, very simple really. A lot of people shorten my real name to the first three letters, Pie and I figured, why not add man to it. And thus the name was born~

[Snake33AU]

Despite the name and avatar combo, the nickname Snake actually came from the game Metal Gear Solid. It was my secondary name actually. When I was about 12 or something, I came up with a gamer name, Ripper (no relation to Jack the Ripper, dunno how I came up with it, lol).

One time I went to do laser tag and register an ID, but Ripper was taken, so i decided 'hmm, what's another cool name?" so the first thing that popped into my head was Snake.

33 is a number I like (fave number is 3) and AU are my initials.
