Would smell as sweet. But would you? Simply put, From whence did your forum name come from, and the same for your user title.
Thanatos- God of Death, essentially the grim reaper of Greek Culture, Whom I identify heavily with.
Kitemancer- In my Tech Study class at my school, namely CAD (Computer Assisted Drafting, basically blueprints on computers) we were designing kites. Miine flew, even after the point at which it had only 3/4 square inches of fabric left.
If their is already a thread like this I apologize, for I did not see it.
-
Uh, basically, this name came from my current NationStates Nation name, which in itself came from me sticking a couple random sounds together to make Kyronea.
Kie-rohn-ee-ah. Kyronea.
-
ZeaLitY. The struggle for Zeal from reality is beautiful in itself.
-
Beeyo is the nickname for my nickname, which is an acronym for Beliefs Over Money, Building One Mindstate, or whatever the hell I felt like making it stand for at the time. So B.O.M. Got shortened to B.O. Beeyo.
-
Dunno. Thought it sounded cool. Sorta influenced by Led Zeppelin, and sorta influenced by the Hindenburgh.
-
Chrono'99 comes from "Chrono Trigger '99", the unofficial name of the PSX Chrono Trigger soundtrack. There's no meaning behind it, I just didn't have any idea and picked this randomly. Looking back, I think it sucks, but I'm used to it and it's not that important anyway. I use other nicknames on the web, like "the Flame Stealer" which comes from Prometheus, the Greek humanistic and kind of Byronic hero.
-
Well, huh..
Itsa cuppa, and itsa n00dles! Voilà!
Seriously now, a bunch of years ago I used the nickname "Noodles" on most stuff (a reference to Offspring's guitarist and to my hair at the time, which a certain girl once said looked like macaroni). Then, a few years ago, considering how many people nicknamed "Noodles" there were, everywere, I shortened it to "NoodS" (nickname, this, which I use almost everywhere 'til nowadays). Then, around the time I registered here, I went to create a Yahoo!Messenger account, and the nickname "noods" was already taken. So, I came up with the ridiculously spelled "cupn00dles" thing (which I thought kinda funny), which, then, I stick up for some time, including the time when I created my Compendium account.
Wow. That was some serious explanation. :lee:
-
Lu Su was a lesser stratigest of the Wu kindom after the han dynasty in china he became comander after the death of Zhou Yu he also acted as a diplomat in the shu kingdom for Sun Quan
-
Mystic- a reference to the CT species.
Frog King- from CT also. Has only a minor appearance, but I felt like using an obscure character as a name =]
Elsewhere I go by the names 'Kaze', 'k453' or 'Barrel Rider' (a hobbit reference).
-
Rider of barrel, says the hobbit to the dragon. Yes, I get that reference. Do not forget, this also involves explanation of one's user title.
-
It's the name of this vampire king kinda guy I have in a story I'm "writing" (as much as I'm still writing Magness, anyways...V_V). What's my user title? Destroyer of Worlds or something? Probably inspired by, if not outright stolen from 8BT (who probably stole it from somewhere else...ah, the circle of internet life...). At the very least, that's where Obnoxiously Evil (normally in my various sigs in one form or another) comes from, a take on BM's Atrociously Evil Side...Was it Atrocious? I forget whatever adverb they used that I changed to Obnoxiously...but whatever...
Oh, and by any other name it would probably fuck up Citizen Cane...

Well, I worked as a waiter in a Japanese restaurant for a while. (BTW, I'm white. I was the only white guy there, in fact--but there weren't any Japanese either, mostly Latinos and Indonesians.) In any case, I told one of my co-workers that I'm a chemistry major; he immediately started calling me "Mr. Molecule." I'm not entirely sure he's clear on the concept of molecules; he's sidle up to me, point to, say, a bowl of sugar, and say, "Molecules, eh?"
A few weeks, later, he tried to get me to teach him to make ecstasy.
Needless to say, I've fallen in love with the name, and try to get people to call me by it whenever I can. Thus, it's my Username! It's better than my first though, anyway--chrono456192!1!!1!

Haha, been there. The Japanese restaurant here was staffed completely by Koreans. The place was outfitted with Karaoke machines, and we eventually got some habachi chef from Vegas down here (he cleaned the place up). I want to say those were good times, but to be honest, they weren't that great...
-
Lord + J + Esquire.
-
Cyber + Sarkany,
which is, like, a Greek prefix meaning "control" + the Hungarian word for Dragon. What a strange combination...
I don't have a usertitel as far as I know, maybe I'll make myself one soon.
-
It all started when I made a user name for Creatures Docking Station.
I rearranged my first name, Kevin, into Vinek.
Later, I signed up for GameFAQs, but I typed in "Venek" for some reason I can't remember.
That name was taken, so I changed a single letter because I thought it would still look pretty similar.

Well, I had some good times. The food was good (not really very Japanese, I think, unless the "Rock 'n' Roll" really is a traditional sushi roll) and the athmosphere was very relaxed.
I quit the job to study abroad in Australia--it's funny, because at home, all the cheaper Asian places are staffed largely by Latinos. Here, all the Mexican places are staffed entirely by Asians. Also, for some reason the sell baked potatoes and crepes. It's very weird.

Well, THIS screenname is fairly obvious in its origin (Magus' ultimate weapon), but my devART is BlackLuminaire, which vaguely refers to the Shadowbomb spell, and then my other sn is usually Loxagn, which is my real name anagrammed Organization XIII-style.
-
nightmare975, wow, I've had this for a long time.
I was making an AOL account and I could figure out what to do. Nightmare is name of a character from my novel I'm working on, so I typed that in. It told me that that name was already taken, so I added three random numbers, 9-7-5.
Turns out later on, the numbers I picked weren't random, they were the last three digits of my old phone number.
But that isn't my name on XBOX Live, that one is JGBeagle. My initials and my school mascot.
Oh, and I'm an official mapper of Crimson Echoes, nuff' said.
-
I'm bored, so some more of my names:
Fiend Kraken - Faf. 'nuff said.
Kazeman III - See above.
-
Pyt Fumv - Al Bhed for 'Bad Wolf'. Inspired by a recurring theme in Doctor Who.
I'm more commonly known as 'Faf' or 'FaFniR', though.
-
Glennleo - Glenn + leo
Glenn is obviously form CT. He is my favorite character from that game. leo is the first three letters of my last name.
It is sort of an adaptation from a named I used when I used to play FFXI. My name there was Genleo. Short hand for General Leo from FF6(3).
So, Glennleo was close and payed homage to my favorite character.

wow...Justin3009...I've had that name for years and years now. Well, I created my first e-mail when I was like 9 so I had a very bad imagination (Still do). So I thought i'd put my first name. When I did, the name was taken so it said for other names "Justin3009" "Xjustin30192". Justin3009 appealed to me more so I took it. Justin3009 3008 3007 3006 3005 are usually my calling card #'s. But i'm also known as Shishisenkou in some games, along with Ux-Shinobi.
Shishisenkou - Obviously one of my most favorite attacks in the Tales Of Series. I just love the way Celsius says it <_<
Ux-Shinobi - This is when I was such a LOLNARUTOFANWOOT!11! person. Ux was a name of a clan I was working on in a game but I got bored of it and left. XD

Oddly enough, my damn is suppose to be what I call Death, but it kinda developed into a character all its own.
