Title: Story behind your profile name?
Post by: Kit Fisto on January 24, 2013, 05:31:02 PM
Hey guys! I thought it would be fun to tell the story or just the reason we chose the profile name we did!


I chose Kit Fisto because a long long time ago I would go over to my friends house and play Lego Star Wars with him. And as a character I would always choose Kit Fisto because he was smiling! [spoiler](https://www.swbfgamers.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Fozrw28z.png&hash=834cc8035119409a5bed9090182ba94e68bfcd3d)[/spoiler]And for some reason him smiling made me choose him everytime! Later on I realized that he smiles in the movie as well! I eventually just came to like him more and more! And now I choose that as my name for any online ordeals.  :cheers:

What's yours?

I chose peanut, me and my friend were eating salty peanuts and then I decided that my swbfgamers name would be changed to peanut.

My name IRL is actually Theodore, but I had a series of extremely vivid and erotic dreams in high school wherein my lover(s) referred to me as Joseph, from then on I decided to be known online only as Joseph.

whoa......

i was originally john, cause when i originally got the game and only played single player, my bro made his account and i made mine

after ~Hero~, i switched my name to Ecko Base, which just became Ecko. The reason with the spelling?
(could someone instruct me on how to just have a 'click here text' to hit instead of the entire link showing up to follow the link, that looks kind of ridiculous)

My name came from more so of my own imagination. When the Transformers movie came out (I admit, I liked it, I don't today tho), I remember Sam Witwhicky's eBay username was "LadiesMan217". I sort of took from that idea, and changed it to "GoldMan27", since I liked (and still do like) gold. Nowadays I just go as Gold Man, mostly so it fits better and looks nice. :P

My name was given to me by a man with no eyes, no ears, and no legs.
He said "You deserve this. You are a man now."
Then it started to rain.

[spoiler]That's a complete lie.
My first ISP misspelled it when I set up an account with them over the phone (back in the early 90's.)
It just stuck.[/spoiler]

Because I am a fan of the Kingdom Heart series. I bought my PSP brand new limited edition just for Birth By Sleep. And also, Roxas, introduced in Kingdom Hearts 2 and playable in 358/2 Days, is completely bad*** when he is dual wielding keyblades.

Well, my initials IRL just so happen to be Z.A.M. so one day I was just playing around with different names and came up with "Sha-Z.A.M." Now I have simplified the name to just "Shazam" or "Sha-Zam". (My first in-game name was actually "ZachAttack".)

I came up with the Agent Z thing about a year later, that name was just for a fun alias for this website, but it stuck and I use it in-game too, sometimes.

I was making a gamespy account and my real name, which is Glyn was taken so I tried Glyn92 (my birth year) which was also taken so I just used my initials and became gdh92.
Apart from clan tags I've never used a different name in almost 2 years of playing. Sorry my name isn't more interesting. :)

It's not interesting because you're born in 1992; therefore, you are ancient.
I, on the other hand, was born in 1993 and am vibrantly youthful.

Yeah, recruiting you was a pain with your name just being }{  :XD:

I chose Norris because Chuck Norris was and still is my childhood hero. I like him because he follows alot of life morals that I also follow and he stands up for them. He is also "for real' not some prissy hollywood actor (he is a veteran of the Korean War). I first started liking him when I saw the Walker Texas Ranger series (7 season TV show put on by CBS). Using Chuck Norris as a game name seemed lame so I just chose the last name. Before I joined 212 my name was Srgt. Norris or Mr. Norris.  :P Any time you see Norris online chances are it is me. I have named all my Phones, Cp's, WiFi Hotspot, etc. 'Norris'
