Over the years I've come across alot if unique and wierd gamertags and psn usernames. So I thought I would make a post and see how you guys came up with them.
I created mine about 10 years ago when I was big into the game runescape. I really wanted it to be "awhisperinthedark" but it was taken already and I really didn't want to have number in my name. But after trying for a good hour with different variations I made mine darkvoice7 and had to settle with a number at the end which was my favourite number. Since then it's the one I use for all online games, and I use darkvoice8 for forums and stuff.
If we can get this trending and keep it trending then maybe we can get deej and cozmo to tell us how they got/came up with their names.
Edit: alot of these are really unique :-) it's cool to see how certain things outside of games can have an effect on how people made their names.
Edit2: over 150 replies wow! I honestly wasn't expecting that many :-) thanks to everyone for contributing. Im enjoying reading them, and I'm sure other people are too :-)

Edited by Bazooka Tooth: 8/17/2015 10:38:55 PMThere was a game that I use to play call Divinity 2 and I really enjoyed it. One day I decided to have a go at completing the game as quick as possible on the hardest difficulty. I managed finish the main story of the game quite quickly but I realised that I hadn't died through the whole of the run. A few days after, My parents bought me my first xbox live so DivinityPR0 was born. Had it for just over 4 years now.
