[Vector]

One of my favorite dude names is "Victor," and one of my least favorite mathematical concepts (but the one people have compared me to) is the humble vector.  I, "Vector," have a direction and a pretty fast pace I'm going it, but I never have any idea as to where I am.

I ended up joining this site as I was flirting with some genderqueer stuff and wanted to

a. Avoid the "no girls on the internet" thing by picking a masculine name
b. Prove myself "equal to the boys."
c. DEFEAT LINEAR ALGEBRA IN SINGLE COMBAT ONCE AND FOR ALL

Yeah, I really hate lalgebra, or "gray algebra," as I used to call it.

[Evilsx]

1 Year ago i was on Xbox360 thinking for name i should have then a friend suggested EviLChIcKeRn so i decide to use it, then i just change it on computer to Evils

[fqllve]

It's a pleasing but nonsensical ordering of letters. It's not supposed to be pronounceable, but I say fill-quillve.

Which makes no sense.

[Bauglir]

I used to think taking on the names of Tolkien characters was a cool and definitely not over-done idea, but at least I had the sense to pick on that (as far as I'm aware) he only ever used once, in the ending of the Silmarillion, to refer to Morgoth. I've since grown rather attached to the name, so I guess I'm stuck with it.

[Levi]

When I was a kid I loved the Final Fantasy series of video games, so I started using Leviathan as a nick(My favorite summon spell).  Everybody started calling me Levi because its easier to type, so I eventually switched to it.

Now people just assume I'm a jeans fetishist.   


Occasionally I switch to Asparagus or Krelk, if Levi isn't available.  Those names don't have interesting origins, they were just the first things that popped into my head when trying to pick a username.

lalgebra

I read this originally as lolgebra. I was disappointed when I read it again correctly because it originally summed up my feelings on most math subjects quite eloquently.

[Flying Dice]

Years ago, when I was a fresh-faced, innocent young lad (to a certain degree on all counts) I was creating an account name for XBL. I was originally going for Fuzzy Dice, but naturally that was taken. My mind happened to flow through a number of things to one Matrim Cauthon and his favorite phrase, and that mental image lead to what I have now.

[Criptfeind]

Both my names come from dysgraphia and runescape. Nine or ten years ago when I started playing (in fact I believe it was also the first thing I actually used the internet for) I was making my guy and I could spell... Well. Nothing. So I needed a made up name I could remember. So I used Plkmasdf. Pronounced Pickle My/Me Soft. Which is still a name I use sometimes. But. Not often anymore. A bit later I was making another file for some reason or another and I needed a new name, and since I had a bit of a necromancy/dark magic fetish at the time (actually I still do, but I do actively try to downplay since it is so overplayed) I chose CryptFiend. Only... Dysgraphia and I was like nine or ten. So Criptfeind. Which works out fine since no one ever spells it that way it is never taken and it is a good conversation piece.


TL;DR: Yes I know it is spelled wrong, No that is not a accident, No it has nothing to do with War Craft and in fact I was using it before WC3 came out.

Edit: Jorn, a third name I use a lot, was the name of my bothers main on WoW back when we played it.

[Blargityblarg]

I have no special origin story for this handle, I just thought of it whilst making an account here. Every so often I consider emailing Toady and asking him to capitalise the second B, but eh.

[Bdthemag]

Bdthemag stands for my first and last initials, and then "the mag" meaning The Magnificent.

My dad would always call me that when I was little, and I used it for pretty much everything I did online as soon as I could go on the internet.

[Putnam]

I was 10, it was very late 2005, and I was signing up on GameFAQs for a hint on what was wrong with my Ace Combat 5 game. I came up with a name quick: putnamehere3145.

I kept that name for years. Then I got into Team Fortress 2. In 2009, I played often on a server called Parlour Room Jesters. One of the regulars there, Glitchigo, now known (I believe) as Rillago, often called me "Putnam". I kept it.

[Gunner-Chan]

Don't we already have a topic like this one?

In any case names the same as always. Janet is my assumed name and a sort of Alias. I went by it for several years instead of my real name.

My real name Is [Removed], or like everyone I know shortens it to [removed].

[Trapezohedron]

I called myself New Guy, because I never expected myself to stick around here for long (I only wanted to ask some questions in the Modding Forum.) and become a regular. I was just running out of ideas, and I wanted a username that I could remember very easily, because signing up for a new account if I forgot my username while I have another question is just tedious.

That, and I'm not too fond of using numbers in my username, so I chose this username.

[SirAaronIII]

I guess I knew a cool guy and his name was Aaron or something? Not to mention the Biblical guy, I always thought it was a little funny when Moses kept overshadpwing him. Though I don't actually know if that ever happened.

Aaron alone wasn't good enough so I was like "how2maeknameslonger I KNOW HONORIFICS", hence the sir part. Then the III came out of nowhere. Man what was I even thinking, I should go for a name change one of these days nah Toady has better things to do than change some dude's username.

My other, more common name, lrcp (may also include wjno), was gloriously produced from smacking the keyboard. That's totally a legitimate way to name stuff.

[Furtuka]

Once upon a time Lego Bionicle had a toa building contest where the grand prize was for the winner's Toa to become part of official canon via cameo in the upcoming book and become relevant to the story at some point in the future. And so I entered with a character named Furtuka.

Needless to say, mine was not chosen because of my lack of skill at backstory writing and not knowing how to make a good colorscheme... or how to build a MOC without making them look horribly deformed and malproportioned.

However, the name I came up with kinda got burned into my mind and with it being something I completely made up on my own when I was somewhere around 7 years old, it would never be an already taken username.
