DarkTharen Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I got mine from a book I read when I was in high school. It was the third book in the Han Solo trilogy. His first "Love" was named Bria Tharen. I was going to make it Darth Tharen but that is kind of lame so I used DarkTharen instead. No I am not a girl but she was the second most important character in the book and betrayed Han and some smugglers. And was a real bad a#$ when the rebellion first started.

Mana Fiend Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 My original gamertag (TheFinalFantasy) was taken, and I wanted to come up with something suitably fantasy-based. So, I thought Mana, from the M:TG game, then wondered what you'd call someone who might horde it. Then Fiend jumped out, and they seemed to fit. Annoyed I can't get my ideal Motto though: 'Fireball' is a legal move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaysie Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Mine is scaysieUK. My surname is Scaysbrook so its kind of a family nickname thats why the UK is on the end. My cousins and my brother have 360's too so just Scaysie wasn't allowed. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4573RxB0x Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 My gamertag is M4573RxB0x. When I was playing Halo PC, my name was masterxbox1. I was going to use that until it was already taken when I got Xbox Live. Then I changed it into letters and numbers and just didn't put the 1 on the end. I messaged masterxbox1 after I registered and asked them why they used that name. They replied with "I played against someone with this name on Halo PC and they were really good so I stole the name so people would think I was". I was like wow someone worships me but at the same like agree because it was my name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spydirdesu Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Back before everyone had an online alias, and only a few people were actually coding websites and using Linux, my alias was DirSpy. It was actually more of a hacker name a.k.a Directory Spy because at the time, I was doing mostly Linux/Apache hacks to correct server holes present in Red Hat distributions and it required all too much time spent typing horrible rewrites at the command line. Then in my last year of college, I took Japanese classes and the short form for saying "I am X" was X-desu so I changed my online alias to spydirdesu to get rid of the old negative connotations from my old "hacking" ways (although I still program C/Java/PHP day in and day out) and pay homage to my love for the Japanese. Did you get all that?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Goldfarb Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Daeth_On_Demand - I created "Death On Demand" for some system-connect games of Halo 3 and Gears 1 at a friend's party, and then when I got a 360 for Christmas ('07) I created "Daeth_On_Demand" because "Death on Demand" was taken, and I didn't want to have to use any numbers for letters (or put x's in front of my name). It honestly didn't occur to me that my tag was a reference to pay-per-view or "On Demand" tv, and I don't use either service... People always ask me if I know how to spell.. *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cerialthriller Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 mine is like incredibly old, i used to use it on BBS dialup systems when i was like 14. Its a mix from the song Serial Thriller by The Prodigy and Cereal Killer from the movie Hackers.

la tigresa xx Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Tigresa is just a nickname I picked up a while ago...

LadyJinx Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 My first character on Guild Wars was my necromancer named Nuclear Warlord and she's also my main and most expensive character with about 800k worth or armor and weapons. She's also my favorite. So I made NucWARLORD. Also, for awhile to gaming I was known as BlitzWARLORD in gaming forums and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_a_drain Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Mine arose from a pretty embarrasing chain of events, but luckily you'd never know, then the nickname from those events morphed into The A Drain after the wrestler, The A Train.
