How did you come up with your name? - Durzo Blint - Nov. 11, 2010 Hey, I'm starting this thread so we can all know a little more about each other. When I started playing MMO's I used the name Cyrus in reference to King Cyrus. King Cyrus is known as the King of Persia in some parts of the bible. Usually I sign up with just the name Cyrus. I wasn't so lucky this time around, Cyrus was taken. I just added Otaku to separate it from all other Cyrus'. I hate having a number on my name. RE: How did you come up with your name? - Moss-Da-Boss - Nov. 11, 2010 How long have ya got ? RE: How did you come up with your name? - Roan - Nov. 11, 2010 Literally years ago I was trying to come up with a screen name to use online. I wanted something short, instantly recognizable and yet easily distinguishable. So I took my actual name (Ryan), and replaced the "Y" with an "O". Little did I know at the time that "Roan" is actually a real word, but the meaning of the word actually just led me to like the name that much more. I've tried changing my screen name a few different times over the years but it just never felt right, I always came back to Roan. It just sort of stuck. haha RE: How did you come up with your name? - Gatsby - Nov. 12, 2010 i always watch yu gi oh and one character joey always says nyeh so i decided to put nyeh its joey RE: How did you come up with your name? - Dan - Nov. 12, 2010 Its my real name. RE: How did you come up with your name? - Khel - Nov. 12, 2010 My name is the Hindi word for 'game' or 'sport'. Thought it was fitting. RE: How did you come up with your name? - Wizard - Nov. 12, 2010 It's kinda obvious. I was Watching MFB (Subbed) and Gingka and Kenta were having that whole conversation about having a Bey-Heart so large and all of the energy in the starry sky and such. RE: How did you come up with your name? - To - Nov. 12, 2010 It's kind of complicated. I originally registered to Beywiki as "Takao", the Japanese name for the main character of the original Beyblade series. However, one day I felt like being cute and tried splitting my username. So I planned to change my username to "T o" with the underneath usertitle being " aka " so that it would read as: "T___o" (underscores used to represent spaces) " aka " So it'd be "T aka o", or "T also known as o". However, the forum doesn't allow you to have spaces within your usertitle, or username in that fashion so I ended up as "To" (which is also cute when you realize I'm from Toronto, often known as "T.O."). It stuck, and here I am today. I swear, the whole spaces thing sounded like a good idea in my head. RE: How did you come up with your name? - Pyro - Nov. 12, 2010 Haha, I love burning things. Seriously. RE: How did you come up with your name? - Pimpju - Nov. 12, 2010 Mine is off the mark, but it was from watching a fan vid of Aoi serenading Uruha from The GazettE. It means maple buns, I believe.

Momotarou is actually the hero character of a famous Japanese folk-tale that my mum used to tell me when I was growing up. Now, I can read it by myself lol. RE: How did you come up with your name? - Annoying-Fork - Nov. 12, 2010 It was originated from a Cerebral Cybernetic Implant Artificial Intelligence (CCIAI) named REtread, an ever-running memory cache entity. RE: How did you come up with your name? - Kei - Nov. 12, 2010 I'm sure there was a thread for this a long time ago ... Can't seem to find it though. No special meaning behind mine. When I was signing up at OtC I was going to use "Kai" or some variation of the name, but then thought it would be more interesting if I changed the "a" to an "e", and voila! Kei (well, it was Kei-X at the time, but I dropped the last part a long time ago). RE: How did you come up with your name? - Byser - Nov. 12, 2010 My username is just a card from Yu-Gi-Oh. Yu-Gi-Oh was what originally drew me into anime things in the first place. The card my username is from was the first Ultra Rare I ever pulled (Byser Shock). When I was crazy about the game, it was my favorite card. Even though I've traded it away now, the name has always just stuck to me. RE: How did you come up with your name? - Dude - Nov. 12, 2010 Well, I got interested in the WBO while Kai-V was showing some of BeyBrad's "in your face" replies to mainly noobs (Including myself, of course) I found them funny and expressed the idea of joinning. I believe she already was an admin, at the time, can't remember. She basically said "Oh, if you register, your username should be Dude. Just Dude." and I agreed because I really liked the movie "Hey, dude, where's my car?" Captivating story, hey, kids? EDIT: Oh, and Blader Kenny's crazy stories got me to join, too. It's too bad that he got arrested just a while before I joined XD RE: How did you come up with your name? - OkiBlaze - Nov. 12, 2010 Let's go back to...2008. I was still into speedcubing and I was subscribed to this YouTuber named VietCuber (She was obviously Vietnamese). I was planning on making videos of my speedcubing times, so I stole her name and tweaked it to use Oki (Okinawa, where I live ). As time flew on and my videos got no popularity, my brother was digging through his closet and found our old plastic beys, and we had a nostalgic moment. This brought me to the WBO, where I had to face the everlasting challenge of finding a suitable username (which by the way, I'm very glad that you don't have to make a new account to change usernames ). I took my old username, and replaced "Cuber" with "Blader" to fit the hobby. About a month or two later, I had a need for a hobby-neutral username, so I switched "Blader" to "Blaze." So basically, I took VietCuber --> OkiCuber (Pre-WBO) --> OkiBlader --> OkiBlaze That actually took a while to write, haha. At least it's not as many name changes as Diamond, haha. EDIT: I have the longest explanation so far, haha. (Nov. 12, 2010 3:24 AM)Kei Wrote: I'm sure there was a thread for this a long time ago ... Can't seem to find it though.Are you thinking of Striker Axis? Because I know there's a thread like this as old as January, and you posted the same story. RE: How did you come up with your name? - RエスコルピオT125JB - Nov. 12, 2010 I think I don't need to explain what my username means? It came up in my mind when Rock Escolpio was first showed in the anime, and I threw my first glance at Busujima, he looked like a character in G-revolution which I like very much. After that, I'm lazy to change it anymore. RE: How did you come up with your name? - Moss-Da-Boss - Nov. 12, 2010 Catslikeeggs = Me just being Random and silly. Nova= This one was a little more difficult I tried to research SuperNovas (Home Work) Then I was like Super Nova sounds way cooler that catslikeeggs. then I thought about it and then came to the conclusion that The super bit was a little tacky and just went with Nova. Moss= Coolest guy on TV RE: How did you come up with your name? - Lux - Nov. 12, 2010 When I first started using a computer, 4th gen pokemon were just being revealed, and I joined Serebii under Lucario_x. So, when I went to go join another forums (forget which), the name was taken so I decided to try to keep the name, just shortened. So I took the "Lu" and "x", put it together, and I had Lux. It was catchy, so that's what I'm known by. RE: How did you come up with your name? - ControL_s SouL_ - Nov. 12, 2010 Well my favourite pokemon is Aron, and I always used to pwn people with it. So then I came up with the name Aron101, the 101 meaning the basics and Aron! Get it or do I need to provide a further explanation? RE: How did you come up with your name? - Temporal - Nov. 12, 2010 I named a character in my stick people comic Megaknight, so I adapted it to beyblade, but Megablader2 was taken! So I changed it to 9. RE: How did you come up with your name? - mesorangerxx - Nov. 12, 2010 i was signing up on maplestory one day and i was about to put down my id which was xxmesorangerxx it was the trend to put Xs in front and back of ur name. so finally i pressed submit. i tried logging in but it wont work, then i finally realized that i forgot to put Xs in front of my name. i played maple so much eventually the name stuck RE: How did you come up with your name? - kanato dolsrin - Nov. 13, 2010 its my name, plain and simple. my character is also named after me, its well a ME character so alot of the time when some people see kanato they see it as a character to a story. i also use Kanato Dolsrin as a related code, just like all names Skallevan to Tallevan, Fell to Fellen, Adversary to Nemisis. it all has a reason for being. everything is complicated but to summon it up........ its just my name, and im proud of it. |
