So, I heard you like arrows
At a young age, I was engrossed with the game Battlefield 1942. At that time, being the immature kid I was, I named myself idiotic names such as "The Pie Lord" and so on. My favorite class to play was the engineer, where I would pile the explosives in my car, drive and jump out before entering an occupied location. A few people that I played with often dubbed me the modern day Kamikaze.

I adopted that username up until my years in Counter-Strike. I could not help but notice that there are Kamikaze usernames left and right. I did not like being part of a greater thing. I wanted a more personal username. All of this was mentioned in a different "Username Origin" thread of the clan I was lead admin for. The owners as well as a few senior admins, so I got the same advice from above and below, said to try and respell it.

I tried several different variants; such as Kamikazy, Kamacazy, and finally Camicazy. I then decided that the y at the end was retarded and perhaps I should make it simpler. I finally decided on Kamakazie.

Yeah, why choose those characters?
Because reasons.
Setsuna is my favourite Gundam protagonist, and for a reason I have yet to remember, I chose Yagami as a username way back when. I was thinking of going with Setsuna and Edward Elric, but every combination of those two names just sounded weird.

If a chicken had lips, could it whistle?
No. The lack of lips don't hinder the ability to whistle. Whistles don't have lips. >:l

I don't have a big sparkly reason why I picked Sienna. It was a name of a character from Phantom Brave. I liked the sound of it and stuck with it :P

It's Me, Gohan
Well, before I ever knew what dragonball z was, a bunch of my friends were really into it. They started calling me Gohan (It's pretty much my only nick name), and I didn't know what they were talking about, so I asked my friend Matt. He then explained to me that I had too many striking similarites to the character, most blatantly obvious was my hair, it has an unnatural ability to stick straight up with just one big lock in the front falling down (Just like Gohan when he's all Mystic and in High school), that and I ate like a bottomless pit, just like Gohan, and also surprising, when you translate my last name into Japanese, bam, Gohan. Then I watched the show and loved the character, so I was cool with it.

I was about 10, I guess and I wanted to make an online account for my ps3. At the time I couldn't think of anything at all and I was stuck :P Then I went and got some multesers because I was hungry, and after a whole I though why not? But some bastard had already taken it so I somehow landed on Multex...

And now here we are :D

Well lets see, I went from MrMalikBlishtar to Malik on the TFS/ATV/OK stuffies, I took that name from YGOTAS and added Mr at the beginning. I kept that name for a while and used it on a chat server which after a while seemed silly to be using Malik in a YGOTAS chat room, you get asked if you voice him alot and get attacked by rabid fan girls. So after a while to save the lead admin magick a headache because whenever he'd go to autocomplete my name it ended up being his named typed. So I was watching Farscape at the time, awesome show by the way, and I thought to me self "Hmmm I should use Crichton."

It's kinda awesome because our initials are one letter off JRC, JRH. And we both have the same first name as well, John. So in the end, I stuck with Crichton/JRCrichton, for the next while. I don't think I'll really stray from this one.

on another note, 69th post, giggity

I felt like I was the only one who loved that game. I mean... Since it got remakes, I guess people liked it... But still.

Then again, just because you liked a name doesn't mean you loved the game... BUT STILL!

D...
YEAH, WHAT DOES IT STAND FOR!!
Monkey... Dumb foot.... Luffy...

As for me, again, considering it's so god damned obvious anyway..

My relentless adoration for anything Megaman made me wanna play with the name Megaman 56. (56 is just an extra number because it is)
I know I originally used it on yahoo waaaay back when they had open chat rooms. Had good times there.
But eventually changed to OmegaZero because, like, there were so many mega...men..
And Zero was always my favorite character. Between my three old friends we used to Role Play and what not, I was Zero, bro was X, And then our leading lady was her own character.
It was kinda awesome how well we played the parts and how fun that speed RPing stuff was on yahoo. I beat my buddy and HIS buddy simultaneously this one time... Eh, nevermind.
