    Default Username origin?

    Mine just came from my manga character Astron and my username from another forum, which was Astro Knight. Take "Astron" and slap an "ite" on the end and you get my username now (and a pun on "Astro Knight").

    I know there's a Wiki page dedicated to name meanings but hardly anyone has posted names on there or anything. It's like a flipping desert.
    Xenogears is the tragic story of how your whole life can take a crappy turn, just because you happened to see a lady in a wedding dress before her wedding.

    It's a pun involving a Proto-Germanic morpheme, Freud, and a religiously significant syllable.

    My name on other forums was Cim, which stood for crazy insane maniac at the time... so the Cim thing caught on ...then a bunch of my good friends on the forum started calling me Cimanim for some reason...so that stuck too. and cimminy cricket...*shrug*

    My name stemmed from the lack of thinking of a good name.

    Also, don't you have to wait a certain amount of time before requesting a name change? Because I REALLY want one. I hate typing all of the numbers and lines...

    Um.... my name was nothing but just a bunch of random letters put together. I mean I don't know how to pronounce it. Most of the time I don't know just as long as it looks good.

    My friend and I decided to make names that look cool when we wre making names for battle hunter so we chose whavter letters looked cool in the writting. And then came Vikeve.

    I signed up for this website only a few weeks after I made the name so it stuck on me.

    I was RikkuYuna89 about 3 years ago. BoB gave me the nickname Rye in #eoff, and it stuck, so I changed my EoFF username to Rye.

    Some ten years ago or so when I was into Redwall and I'd first discovered the internet, I made a roleplaying character named Pikestaff. The name has just... stuck... though I often shorten it to Pike.

    Even my real-life friends call me Pike or Pikestaff on occasion. It's amusing and silly but I kinda like it cause I'm a geek like that.

    (I should note that my first name on this forum was Gir, (taken from the Invader Zim character) which was a name I also used for a brief time on various forums... but I've decided I like Pike/Pikestaff much better.)

    Chemicals are always undergoing constant change depending on a diverse amount of variables; temperature, environment, neighbouring chemical compounds...

    It just seemed to be the most suitable screen name that divulged my relation to the EoFF message boards if not the world.

    Boldly go.
