When I was 6, I met my best friend. He asked me if I had a nickname, which I answered that I did not. He felt this was a shame, and that everyone should have a nickname. So since my name is Simon, he started calling me Simski.
A certain Dr. Seuss book. Although I added the '22' because when I first tried to use it, it was already taken.
I have a friend who's really into Essential Oils, so I grabbed one and the name sounded pretty cool. [url]http://www.doterra-aromatics.com/products/specialty/terraShield.html[/url] Of course I had to change it, and who doesn't like heterographs? So I went with TerrorShield. After I made the account, I found out it was an actual item in Final Fantasy XI. [url]http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Terror_Shield[/url] So that's what I go with when people ask me about my name, although I've never actually played the game.

Nick Strafe came from my history book, later when i tried to make a steam account, Strafe was already taken, so was str4fe, so i used str4fe114 and later on joined facepunch with the nick Str4fe.
I used to go by 'Ghetto_Concept' because I liked a rap group of the same name when I was 8. Anyhow, one day I get the idea to use an alternate alias to see what people were saying about me in the chat rooms I used to regular. So I tried out countless combinations till I tried 'Cureless_Poison' and it worked perfectly. Name stuck since, though on here it's short form because I couldn't fit the full one in the name bar.
Bored and couldn't think of anything else.
My name is Joonas. Around when NFS:MW came out, my dad bought it and installed it without telling me. He decided to make a twist to the name by changing the "S" to a "Z". Later on just Joonaz wasn't usable on some forums, so I added the first letter of my last name to the end.
When i started playing CS 1.6 many years ago i had the name "Toyhobo [Made in china]", changed to "Toyhobo" after a few weeks because people were trying to chat me up on Chinese.
I paid my friend to make me a retarded name. It worked. I regret it every day, and i can't be assed forking out any amount of money to buy a new one.
It's an anagram.
Being a ten year old dipshit, I thought it was perfect because "MartixX iz k00l xDxD" I kind of just stuck with it, even after I stopped being an annoying kid spewing shit like "I can has chezburgr xD" and the likes. I don't use it on new accounts I make, I just never bothered to pay for a name change.
I honestly have no idea
Im a very impulsive person
I had a blackberry and I was always doing stuff on it. My brother told me that I was addicted to it and my dad said that the phones are like crack for people. Therefore, crackberry

I ran as Gunteen6 for some time back when I first started playing Halo on the PC. needed some kind of name. I was probably like... 11 or 12. Around my freshman year of highschool I was working on a science lab with a friend and ended up using one calculator in each hand to do the several equations we needed done every step. One of them error'ed and displayed "Syntax ERROR" aaaand that stuck for a while. Then I shortened it to just Syntax. The S31 comes from being a part of the Section 31 gaming/modding community. If you've played popular mods for Star Fleet Command 3 like Island Wars, Sci-Fi Wars, or Unity, then we made em. Just call me Syntax.
I like nachos.
I have no idea.
My brother introduced me to AIM and his name was Pyrokid906(September 6 is his birthday). Following the same username format, he gave suggested Lazyboy804, but it was taken. So I used Lazyboy0337(last four numbers in cell phone number.)
I've used this name for pretty much everything for a few years now. In like 2005, I was playing css and from what I recall, a guy had a name similar to Blazyd, so I changed my name to this and it stuck. I have yet to find the original Blazyd [img]http://i.imgur.com/kcMCy.gif[/img]
It is the name of my grandfather.
