How did you get your name?

I got mine from watching Black Hawk Down, the two snipers:

MSGT Gordon
SFC Shughart

I used to be Delta-Sniper, but no dashes in PlanetSide :eek:

Made it up in high school as a comic company name... it's memorable, and the misspellings make it less offensive to people for whatever reason.

Got my forum name because when i was in middle school i was really short and my last name kinda sounds like birdhead so LilBird. 24 and 31 are favorite nascar driver numbers.

Got kikinchikin for some random reason. I don't even remember how I thought of it.

Greek God+State Of Birth+Country of Birth= Me :-D and i used the Greek God Of thunder for 2 reasons 1 i like the Nordic God of thunder thor, and his name begins with Z as does mine

also as an after discovery Cali is the Indian Goddess of Evil(something evil i forget)
so i guess it could refer to both sides of the soul and then the 3rd person viewing them as "us" Zeus+Cali=Us


--edit- btw hamma can you add us to my name?
i use ZeusCalius now but can't change it. to many guys flirt with me with zeuscali they think i'm Bisexual :scared:

SunFlight just doesn't cut it for PS... I used my old name Vycker for my 7-day trial and forgot the pass, so, I end up making a new account trying to think up a name that doesn't scream idiot, and I typed some letters in and this popped up.

I dunno. My name is so simple, yet so complex. One can't grasp the true meaning of my name, therefore I remain an enigma.

Fun Fact: The name "Doop" used to not be allowed in PlanetSide. ph33r

Speedway sign was partially blacked out. I said it really funny. My friend adopted the saying. It stuck.

Plus, power names suck. My previous Nick was Magnus, Malachi, Melchior, Rufus, etc.
And, my name on a different forum, is derived from Hamlet. And I dont like the play itself too much.
