I know that this was posted a few times already, but how did you come up with the nickname you use here at the JA and on the servers?

SirBizNatch - from a Sum 41 cd, back when I was really into them, thought it was cool -> you guys nicked me Bizzy kinda, or SBN, just shortened versions.

In other games, I might go as Yen, which is my nick from my RL friends, from my last name Yenchick, because we mostly go by our last names.

Sometimes I'll go as Rafiki or attach it to my nick - crazy monkey from the Lion King, meh favorite movie.:D

well it is rather simple on mine actully, th last part, Rider is the only thing I was ever given by my biological father, and Mikel is the origional spelling, if you go way way back of my first name. So it is my real name, but starwarsed up. I had it as Mikel RyDer for a while, but people kept thinking the trucking company, you should get K to post here his nick name (red deer) is good.

A'Sharad Hett
 - Student
 A'Sharad Hett

Star Wars comic #7 from Darkhorse features the Cerean Ki-Adi-Mundi traveling to Tatooine to locate a legendary Jedi long thought dead, Sharad Hett. Sharad in the meantime kept busy over his years away from the Order by having a son, A'Sharad, and training him as a Master would a Padawan.
Sharad had proven himself to the Tusken through valor and fortitude and had since taken to their culture, raising his son as a Tusken from birth - hence the naming convention.

Looking beyond the peculiar dress the character of A'Sharad is marvelously written and much of an enigma. One of my favorites, he intrigued me and so who better to take the name of than one that captures your attention and does not release?

For further reading:
The latest in the Republic line of comics from Darkhorse, #58 , also features a bit about A'Sharad during the height of the Clone Wars.

I've always been horrible at making up nicks. So when I joined here... can't remember exactly what I used, but it sucked. Either that or I started off with Narsil. Wish my memory was better

Anyways, at the time, I must have been reading Lord of the Rings, and I don't know how I came up with Narsil as a name, but somehow I chose it, and started using it. I haven't looked back since.

Now.. It's second nature. And I love it :)

Fate
 - Student
 Fate

Long ago... in a land oppressed by a tyrannical regime... one man stood to defeat his enemies by all means necessary...
This was back in the days of AOL 3.0 (OMFG :eek:) Anyways, I can't remember my first screen name.. I think it was Lord Fort. This was because I had just seen Empire Strikes Back, and then all 3 starwars movies in order on USA (tv station). Lord Vader was of course my favorite and Fort (Forte) is my last name. Then, after a few months I grew bored of the normal AOL use and by this time AOL 4.0 was around. I started downloading progz (I was such a script kiddy) and one of the later ones I got was "Fate 2.5". After a while when AOL 5.0 was around I got "Fate Zero". Finally I changed my screen name to Lord Fate. I later lost that screen name and still can't get it back ( :( ) 4 years later I was a sophmore in highschool and I attended my first lan party. I got a copy of Q3A and needed a name. I chose Fate even though I didn't remember my old SN at the time nor the program that inspired it. A year ago I got a new computer and I decided that it would be the last of the Fate. When I get my next computer in a year or two I'll retire this name and take up a new one.

I must not fear . Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear . I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Was playing in a cs tourney at a lan a few years ago.. My friends and teammates decided my current nick sucked, so they decided to rename me. And since a crappy techno/dance song called "silencio" was popular at the time, they decided that should be my new nick.. I was like "yeah whatever", and just continued using it.. The "cool" part about it is that I do have a theme song:P

its one of my middle names :S before i joined, i never used to tell anyone this name, so i decided... why not? so i called myself Vaughn to honour the name that my brother gave me (i cant remember which one), because i used to tell everyone that my middle name was Stephen. and now, for almost every game/onlinegame Vaughn is my name ;)

Well, when I first started playing JK2, I found the kissing emote extremely amusing. So I would go around kissing everyone and I named myself The Kissing Bandit. After the novelty of the kissing wore off, I dropped the first part and just kept Bandit. :D
