Let's talk about Nexus usernames!
How did you come up with your username? What were you thinking of when you thought about your username? By what or who were you inspired?


My username is Birrii
I was actually thinking of berries, but I thought that Berry would be way too boring.
So I chose Birrii :)

I've got a recent one...concerning nexus..... . The other one was one I made was a quicky from 5 years ago.
While the one I actually have now was even older. Pronam. I haven't picked a definitive meaning for it and I actually like that, that way I don't have to behave ICEy as I had to before :). I did decide the a is pronounced as in mám after a while. I do remember when I got the inspiration, as I quickly had to get a new name at gamespy as I had a name that looked similar to the word uninstal which I got often remembered by when I played online games ;D. I still don't recall how I got it/made it up, but I'm glad I have it.

The username I currently use was just a quick idea, I'm going to ask buddah to change it. The username I usually use, dagon theranis, comes from the fact that mehrunes DAGON is the hardest enemy to defeat, and Theranis from the thieves guild is the easiest, mostly because he's dead.

well, my originates from runescape... about 5 or 6 years ago when it was cool to play it and th egame didn't suck

My friend was helping me make a character, and we wanted something original

so we came up with calliton
pronounced like this
ca- as in cat
lli- as in lips
ton- as a really heavy thing, a ton
calliton
and so the epicness was born...
but my biogragphy is too epic to share with anyone, for their epic glands might burst

Actually I use my name not just here but everywhere, it is my gaming tag/name. I only recently added the SWAT tag to it because I just recently officially joined that group when I no longer am in that group it will go back to just WaLkAwaY.

Long story short I have had some incredibly unfortunate, destructive and painful stuff happen to me in my life and around 2002 I vowed never to let my emotions rule me, let anything or anyone rule me again and to never get so involved with anything or anyone that I could not just WaLkAwaY.

:biggrin:

Katshy was me mis-spelling katashy, which is my nick name and I also use it for PSN and other online communitys. Katashy was me purposely mis- spelling kakashi, a character in the Naruto series.
