How did you come up with your IGN and what's the story behind it?

For all of my mains, they have something that relates to the class + "User" (MirUser, FlameUser, BlazeUser, DawnUser, etc.). For all of my mules, they just have something to do with objects (GasMicrowave, GreenPickle, CurvedFinger, etc.). Really there's no story behind it. It's just some naming scheme I fell into.

@above: I remember KremeChoco. She was such a bro.

My names now are relitivly random(Levmnar my BtlM) but at first my carecters was always _____Raven16

Kojo is my RL middle name

I made it because I thought pirates owned. I put the 12 because I couldn't use "Piratesown". Plus I never thought I'd be serious about this character.

Abysseon (134 I/L Archmage): First character. Wanted Abyss but that was taken so I added eon at the end.

Delusory (138 Evan): Picked because it means deceptive and Evan's had Illusion as a skill name.

Refreezing (Future I/L Mage?): Was saving it for Abysseon with a name change but since it received a ban, I'm considering remaking a I/L mage for chaos with the name.

ScherpeOgen is a name change from MrCreemy which was a name change from NeckiWine

ScherpeOgen -> Means Sharp Eyes in dutch. Myself and my dutch friend used to sit in FM 2 CH 9 and just bullshit around. A lot of the time I'd go around speaking dutch (using google translate for the majority of it) in a 3rd person calling myself Scherpe Ogen and her Heilig Symbool(holy symbol). It was a lot of fun <:

MrCreemy -> Knock off brand of Oreo from Canada and sexual innuendo

NeckiWine -> Tribute to GPQ. I. Fucking. Love. GPQ.

Nalek24 has uninteresting story behind it so I'll leave it alone

I dont feel like thinking of my god knows how many other IGNs I have. Maybe I'll get back to it later.

IWillNotBow-Wonderwall was taken, so I plugged the first song that came into my head.
StereotypeUs-I've used this name 3 times, each time on classes that are stereotyped to be KSers. Pretty self-explanitory.
ltsCnnAgain-Poking fun of a friend.
OnlyImagine-After John Lennon's Imagine.

Goals the I/L Arch Mage - Simple pluralized word.
OsmosisJones the white blood cell the Bishop - Partner for my Corsair
Drixenol the cold pill the Corsair - Teh Pill from Osmosis Jones!
Mechbeth the Mechanic - At first I thought resistance characters were evil. Guess not
Timetable the Wild Hunter - Another simple word like Goals.

Also, , since I just typed half a page of sentimental stories behind how I got my IGNs. FFS, I had like 3 different IGNs in the past on Goals. Stupid site logged me off after a while.

MarioCLERIC I started with this when I was a noob, I had another character level 2x, I knew someone named BetoCLERIC, he was level 6x, I was like "Omg, you're such a pro" so I decided to make my character from that.
Skylineh Nissan Skyline , but Skyline was taken so I added "h" at the end =]
Warlineh From Skylineh, I wanted an IGN that matched my hermit =P
ix3Wendie Inspired from my girlfriend.

Takebacker (Deleted Windian CB at level 95 iirc, my first serious character): I wanted a name that reflected thieves and that's what i came up with. Pretty simple and i liked it a lot so i've used it for everything since.

BrickwaIker (175 buccaneer): Name of a soilwork song which was one of my favorite bands in late high school. I don't necessarily like the song too much, but it sounded cool and i was desperate for a name at the time.

Souljumpan (120 DW): Self explanatory really. I made a DW because i wanted soul rush/jump really badly.

Souldrivan (87 UA sader): It works so well with my UA medal. XD

Nenmage (50 BaM): Got it from Hunter X Hunter, one of my favorite mangas of all time. Auras i saw as similar to nen except not quite as complex.

Hmm. I tend to come up with alot of odd names. And sometimes not always with a story behind them. But I still have a list. Let's see here:

gMS Beta
Salith: a warrior, based off my old D&D character Salith Bradshire. Name's still taken on scania... can't bring myself to just delete him and remake
Khrima: The villain of a comic called Adventurers!, I was a major part of that community a long time ago. Also still have this name saved on Scania, though I'll probably never use it

gMS
AdventurerD: Also based off a character from the comic above (Drecker) made when I saw you could make someone to look exactly like him. However, Drecker was taken, so I went with that instead

Jarlsberg: While it is also the name of a cheese, it is also the name of the greatest wizard in the Kingdom of Loathing. Was my first character on Bera once I switched off Scania. Still only level 44 cleric or so.

RediarDniw: When Crimsonwood was hot stuff, I was really on a Versal kick at the time, so I decided I would make a character who was essentially a male windraider from Versal, sent to sneak his way into the ranks of Cygnus and steal their techniques, much the same way they had already done with Crimsonwood Keep's warriors. It's a stretch for a name, but still readable as something fairly exotic.

NaraSumas: Also a reverse name, my Aran. Surprised I was able to take this one, and equally surprised how easily it rolls off the tongue, haha

Tsava: The last reVersal name, it's just Avast backwards, for my pirate, but it still looks pretty sweet IMO

Linuxofgb: Stolen from some hunter in my WoW guild, used for my mechanic.

RoseGrimdark: Anyone here read MSPA/Homestuck? Then it's pretty clear what this is. My BaM.

Bribery, Bribes - Simple words. I had to buy the IGN Bribes.

Warahyuu (My HS mule) - I stole it from some Neopets player, thought it sounded cool.

Pokemarts - My FM mule + I love Pokemon.

I had to buy the IGN Bribes.

Irony. xD

MetaSeraphim is what the first living beings in all of existence called me when they saw me.

MuscleWizard(BaM): Battlemages beat things up with their staves, need I say more?
TheBeardyMan(Mech): My bros are always raggin' on me about my beard, so yanno what? Let's do this.
SoIIuxCaptor(Dual Blade): I really like homestuck. Sollux hath suchhh annnn aaaadoraable lithp.
SolluxCaptor(Blaze Wizard): I wanted to own BOTH. I didn't get SoIl and SolI though. :<
GamzeeMakara(Mule): HoNk
SuperPrommie(Cleric): First character I made on windia, and I was joking around with a friend at the time who happened to be a total attention whore on another site. All the skill macros referenced that friend, it was actually kind of the biggest in-joke we had at the time.
DoubleJaguar(Wild Hunter): Yeah I got nothing.
BewareMyFury(Dawn): You do NOT want to piss off a dawn warrior.
TheBestPlan(F/P Mage): I made a UA Fire/Poison Mage. Need I say more?
MyEvanRocks(Evan): He rides around town on mounted on a huge ass dragon, and he has a spiked mohawk. I really shouldn't have to say any more on this matter.
ArachnidCar(Aran): Arrancar was taken. Plus that friend from before was obsessed with bleach and spiders, so REFERENCE NUMBER TWO AHOY-
And Finally

TheHipsterNL(Rogue): Someone gifted me that shitty 6th anniversary birthday set, so yanno what? Let's take a class with flashy skills, and make it look completely pants on head retarded.


These are all just on windia.

Act 1 Scene 1 Page 1 of Julius Caesar by Shakespeare.

Second Commoner

Truly, sir, in respect of a fine workman, I am but,
as you would say, a cobbler.

MARULLUS

But what trade art thou? answer me directly.

Second Commoner

A trade, sir, that, I hope, I may use with a safe
conscience; which is, indeed, sir, a mender of bad soles.

MARULLUS

What trade, thou knave? thou naughty knave, what trade?

Second Commoner

Nay, I beseech you, sir, be not out with me: yet,
if you be out, sir, I can mend you.

"I can mend your soles, sir"
Resole.

re·sole (r-sl)
tr.v. re·soled, re·sol·ing, re·soles
To put a new sole on (a shoe).

Quite witty, I know.

Kalemora was created when I failed to hear my brother spell out a name of a character from a book he had read.
AduIaria is the mispelling of a mineral common in moonstone or something called adularia.
Gnowee is an aboriginal solar goddess.
Wisecracking, Hypnotizable, and VuvzeIas are self-explanatory and just look nice I guess.

I think I'm going to name my future chars (if any) based on what I'm learning now... how does "Apoptosis" sound? XD

Hadriel

I like it, but it sounds kinda suicidal.

Derosis: Der as in being "The" and -osis being: Denoting a process or condition: "metamorphosis"

The Metamorph"osis" :3c I was bored when I was 13.

Sugwa- I pressed 3 random keys on my friends keyboard when i first tried maple then added vowels.

Nanuka- My friends dog's name was Nanuk and that was taken so i added an "a"

Nanukion- Added ion to Nanuk.

FirePawx- I was reading the Warriors series at the time lol.

AtrumVirus- Latin for Dark Poison.
