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 :-)

Steeltwo comes from a pokefusion of steeleon and mewtwo. Basic and simple. Arauro which is my gt and psn, I created at the age of 13. (8 years ago) and the creation behind that came from Aurora and Curro. Aurora being beautiful lights and Curro being shadow/crow. And boom. My unique name that I love. Pronounced uh-roar-oh

My real name begins with D. When I first started playing online around 10 years ago there was a rapper in the UK called Lethal Bizzle. My flat mate started calling me Dizzle. This was taken on Xbox Live & after messing around with variations I settled on Diznit. Then carried it over to PSN when I got my PS3.

Edited by Srg Deano: 9/11/2015 12:29:11 PMWe thought we would give ourselves army names (sounded a good idea at the time) when we first started playing halo 2 back in the day I got the abbreviation for Sergeant wrong but had it for so long (about 10 years) I just stuck with it.
