"Where did the idea for your username come from?"

Apart from the pretty self explanatory ones (first names etc), where did you get the idea for your SR username?

Mines pretty self explanatory (also: boring) - initials and age.

But where did the ideas for yours come from? We've got some pretty wierd ones and I'd be interested to know.

have a guess.

No?

Well alright, its something to do with the beatles

Yes, this topic has been done before. In fact, I think I started it

Anyway, my mate made me watch Powerpuff Girls once, and Mojo Jojo was the main baddy that episode. And he RULED. More than Guy Pearce ever could. So I stole his name

I remember you saying that before, somewhere, MoJoJoJo. Perhaps there was once another topic like this . . . can't remember.

You like the PowerPuff Girls?!

Mine's from a bad acid trip I had last year.

BIGMAN was a nickname!

Never! Although I have concluded that Scyther looks cool. I don't see why it doesn't deck all the rest of them, seeing as it has big fackoff swords for arms.

*cough*

A certain kids cartoon. I just thought spelling it MoJoJoJo looked better than Mojo Jojo

I originally used it because I was sick of being just about the only kid without an internet nickname, so I stuck it in whilst playing Soldier Of Fortune online (long time ago)

Adam Edgeworth, yes? :P

I started my existence on the forums as Gaming Boy. I stayed like that for about 250 days. Then I got bored of it, and Twain was what I came up with, basically.

But Gaming Boy was my name to begin with because, when I joined, I had only just bought my first GameBoy, and I was pleased as punch with it, hence Gaming Boy.

Game Boy
Gaming Boy, see?

But Twain was just something that came into my head when I wanted to change names. I thought it sounded better.

heh- well, I kinda fused to thing together. Most people see my name as Microchips, the micro food made by McKain, but it actaully derives from Microprocessors, and the microchips that form them. I then added the tagline "They're a megabyte" which fuses eating them with the computer version. geddit? :D
