WHOOT TO THE MONKEYS!!!

Anyhoo, I came up with mine because Herman is one funny ass name, and gibbons are some god damn funny ass monkeys! So naturally, a marriage of the two provided me with some great lols for a few minutes, as I am easily ammused you see :thumbs_up: But then I got bored with it :bored:

My friend got me into warcraft 3, and he said that "A game called Preschool Wars was really, really, fun".
Preschooldude was taken, so I did Preskooldude :D
 
I watched Bruce Almighty. And then I remembered my name in English is "William", and then I realised "will the almighty" sounded weak, so I put it in CAPS.

I had made an account with spaces, but then that account was overwritten by my Wc3sear.ch account, which I never got to access because of terrible scripting error that also locked me out of the site. The error was something in the like of "Nigga$$$".
 
I got my username when I was making my first games with the Age Of Empires II editor and had to choose a hero from a list to be the main character.
After some thinking, I decided to pick the hero named Kitabatake, since I had never heard of him before (all the other heroes were very famous, for example Robin Hood, King Arthur, Lancelot & so on..)

Eventually I got the game Warcraft 3 and it required me to make an account to be able to play on battlenet. All of the user names that I tried were already used, but soon I remembered Kitabatake from AOE II and:

"Your account has been created"

Red vs. Blue's Pvt. Delano Donut. Don't ask why I picked the metrosexual one.. One of my friends beat me to Caboose, and all the others had boring names.
3.5 just seemed like a good number, I dunno...
Eventually people kept on calling me a pastry, even though that's spelled doughnut.. Or at least that's the proper spelling of it.
Yep, ever since, I've been donut3.5, the terror that attaches his name to every post for no reason, bordered by dashes.

I combined a couple of japanese words death_touch = sesshoku_sendo

Sendo actually means death
sesshoku actually means touch
but if you translate japanese that is how you would say death touch

A long time ago, in a middle school not so far away, a little 4th grader was reading a Magic Card Encyclopedia when he should have been writing about what he did over Christmas vacation. He saw an 11/11 card named Denizen of the Deep, and decided to name a rather cool doodle after it. The name needed uniqueness, so he changed it to Denizen of the Dark. That was too cumbersome to say, so it then became Dark Denizen. The doodle looked a bit like a Dreadlord, so when I named my first Bnet account, I remembered that and used it.

My CSS (And Trem, for that matter) name, Kaoz, was the product of alcohol and lack of sleep. At four in the morning, after having finished off an entire bottle of scotch between the four of us, we decided to go downstairs (bad idea). Someone (I don't remember much about that night) decided to get some cornflakes to eat. Naturally, not being sober and not having a light on made pouring them difficult, and he spilled them all over the floor. Someone else walked in and said something to the effect of "It's complete chaos in here!" I said something to the effect of "Chaos cornflakes... sweet!" I started messing with the words in my head (much harder than normal when not sober) and came up with Kaoz Kornflaykz.

And that is how my names were concieved.

Well it all started when i was just a kid .. and first played worms armagedon .. like dunno ...7-8 years ago, and saw Boggy B, i loved that name for 2 reasons : 1) it sounds good , 2 ) it fits my real name :D ( Bogdan )
 
It was my b-day and my brother was helping me creat a account so I could play the map he made for me. I had no idea what I wanted my name to be so he rattled of random names....That were like what they call me in real life. I randomly said ok to "daskunk"...the allways use say a smelled bad and called me a skunk, witch is how he thought that up I gusse. I originaly thought I was only going to use it just that once, but I wound up useing it a few months later...
 
My old acc was WorIdEdit ... youll never be able to guess why.. xD

after some time i got bored of this nic and ceated my new one..
My real name is "Jonas" and many of my friends started calling me "Johnny" ... :D so JonNny was Born ;)
(hmm ... and i wondered why "JonNny" was already in use and created "-JonNny" .. afterwards i realized that it was my old nearly unused acc from Wc3search )

I have no imagination so I simply picked the name of a band I liked back when I made the acc.

You know we love it :p

I was asked this question when I joined, it seems like forever ago.

It's very simple really.

My name is Brad.

I'm a dude.


My favourite number is 03.

That's it. When I originally came up with the name (I must have been about 10 or so, it was my first sn, stfu :p I didn't know about underscores, so I used . instead)

When I got wc3, I was like 12, so I was still usingthe handle.

By the time I had joined the Hive, I had several other sn's but I still used my brad.dude03 account for Battle.Net, so I decided that when I joined the Hive (to make it less confusing for everyone) i'd keep my sn the same.

I've wanted a name change ever since :p

My present handle is Mctwist (for all those who have my msn, you should know by now :p)

This name has a very simple meaning too, it's an awesome skateboarding move. I was going to go with Mcdude, but it wasn't original enough :p Now, after seeing Superbad, I wish I had chosen Mclovin.

And that, ladies and gents, is all there is behind my name :p

Well, mine was something I had to come up with, I was doing a lan party with some friends of my brother (and my brother) and they all had funny/cool/serious names, so I couldn't come with my normal name, wich offcourse would sound rather stupid (becouse my name isn't what you could call the best ^^, still I'm proud of it for some reason) and so I had to think of something, wich seemed to become DarkKnight, Then I Used it for so many things, for just about any forum (exept the ones were DarkKnight was already registered) my second choise was Kamica, wich was a name I thought up.. no meaning, so if you find DarkKnight or Kamica somewere, It might be pretty likely it's me ^^, (Kamica more likely then DarkKnight, becouse Kamica is getting more used by me...)
