So I'm reading all these topics and stuff, and I am just wondering where everyone got their names. You know the drill, name and where it comes from. If at all possible, who gave it to you, what is it from, where is it from or where you were, and how you got the idea for your name

StaR is actually the initialls of my name with an A and with a cool capital R.
How about you? Question

Mine, I got it from the Game Alien Vs Predator 2. Game scared me and I liked it so that became my name at the same summer the movie came out and so I shortened my name from Alien vs Predator to AvP.

Well, I'm a sci-fi fanatic, and my name is based after a classic episode of the original Twilight Zone. Season 2, episode 5, "The Howling Man", first aired November 4, 1960.

Here's a synopsis: http://www.scifilm.org/tv/tz/twilightzone2-5.html

My name is from a Linux freeware game called Koules. It's the final boss, and the name just sounded so evil and awesome that I had to claim it.

I'm a big fan of the Carolina Hurricanes, and Hurricane sounds cool as a name.. plus, the Scorpions' 80's hit "Rock You Like a Hurricane" is one of my favorite tunes.

Well, In the early days of Won, I was admitted into a clan and they were like "Ur name is too long, choose a different one" At that time, it was Devouring One, the elite zergling from StarCraft. I then changed it to Matrix, because my dodging skills in CS were like zomg uber1337. The clan broke up quite a while later and I found myself just playing on different games and decided to change my name to |2eflex, since my AIM sn is lightning and I have really good reflexes...

Confused?

Anshinritsumai means "I wish you peace" in Japanese.

Simple enough?

Kyubi means "Nine Tails" in japanese but i claimed the name after a fox demon from the anime Naruto... also not many people know this, but in the game/show Pokemon - Ninetails the evolved form of vulpix, has the name kyubi as its Jap. name (kyubi=ninetails Razz)

my original and old school name which i used for years when i first started TFC back in 00, was unknown. i was like 11 years old, i had NO idea what to pick for a name, so i went just as Player for a while. i saw a lot of people had their name as unnamed, so i wanted something different but along the same lines. there was some other reason why i actually picked the name unknown.... but that last reason made me have the same name for years =P

The Crimson King, NOT from King Crimson, NOT from the flowering plant, and (unfortunately) NOT from the species of llama. The Crimson King is the ultimate villain from the Dark Tower book series by Stephen King. most badass badguy ever.

my other alias, Demo Dave, was a play on words with my name. when i was apart of [OOF] in the WON days, i was the demoman.

ok my last name is eichhorn. in high school a lot of people called me corn. i also liked the group korn. then when i started playin fantasy football i wanted a strong soundin name so i added nation after it. then when i started playin tfc my roomate at the time OCD changed it from cornnation to CorNation. and so i find no need to have anyother name. because OCD hasnt been on forever, he moved to florida with no net, yes he is obsessive compulsive hense the name OCD. Good Idea
