Yep, it's that age old thread.

Mine came from when I was like 12. Trying to figure out my first username whilst looking at Mario 128. Liked Luigi better then, and 128 is a crowd. Thus, Luigicrowd (lol). Eventually it became a staple but I hated it at the same time, so shortened it to LC. Because forums suck and want 3 letters or more, I stuck LC155 on front of it.

I hate this even more and want a new username, but I can't think of anything!

So, how about you guys? :p
 
4 Aarons in my primary school class, we all got different names, I looked like some one in the year above called Robert so got the Bert. Already taken, so put boy on the end and then when decided to put my age at the time. Stuck since
 
Mines from a custom auto parts company.

For some reason it was the first thing to jump into my head when trying to figure out a user name, I thought it sounded cool and it just stuck
 
What's Mario 128?

Was a tech demo Nintendo did back in the GC days to show off its power. Also a precursor to Mario Galaxy.

That's the most confusing method of choosing your username ever.

I'm pretty complicated. :p

But seriously, I can't pull off anything like that anymore. Want a cool sounding username that will become permanent (ie unique so that random jackass wont have it) but brain won't let that happe anymore. :p

Trying to think of a name for neopets as a young boy. My last name is Judge, so Judgeneo came into being. That was amazingly taken so I became Judgeneo555 as the website suggested.
So I've been either Judgeneo or Judgeneo555 ever since, nothing at all to do with the matrix.
 
Back in the day of Xbox Live on the original Xbox, I was making an account for Halo 2 while on the phone to my first girlfriend (n'awwwwwwwwwww).

I couldn't think of a name so asked her for inspiration. She was reading the Bible at the time (she wasn't religious, just for the hell of it) and she read out some of the names out of there.

Zephaniah was one of those.
 
Was on a charity bike ride, clerical error got me with a name bib with 78 d_brennen. Pictured on the front page of a local rag with the caption "David Brennen..." I forget. Used it as my online alias for sometime

Now that's the kind of username I'd probably like, just can't figure out anything creative that won't be taken. :D
 
nkata - not known at this address

simple really, I have used it for years on several sites and for email.
 
Started playing over the internet warcraft 3, was playing as the undead race at the time so tried to think of something that sounded like an undead-important guy. Randomly thought of Nerus. randomly added Y and the end on this forum as I presume Nerusy was taken.

Only after I created the name I found out Nerys is apparently a welsh female name ;)
