    mythas

    Back when I was younger and playing world of warcraft, I couldnt think of a name for my character so i used the random name generator and it came up with mythas. I thought was cool, and since then I use it for most online games.

    Outstanding algorithmic thinking by @Snakes.  Laughing

    With about 3000 @borg on this site, I was hoping for more privacy at the end of the alphabet, hence @zborg.

    A bit scary too?  That planet looks way too hot to land on.

    I'd quickly become pork barbeque.

    bobbyDK

    bobby is my name and DK is international short for denmark.
    so Bobby from Denmark.
    I choose my name as a 5 year old because I had to change my name because my former name Bent didn't do well in english  speaking countries.
    As a child I played with a lot from US and Australia and they laughed hard each time I told my name Bent. guess why

    I think you should have just kept it ... probably worked well with certain "circles" ... and anyway, who cares?  it's your name!  if you look at Thai name (where I am currently), you'd find far more to wonder about! :)

    cabadenwurt

    Interesting thread, my name is quite basic. Ca stands for Canada, where I've lived for many years. Badenwurt is short for the name of the province in Germany where I was born.

    it's very long story going about 13 years back.. but long story short it stands "Sa- N(and) - An - 22" which are the first 2 letters of of 2 names...and "22" is my birthday

    however I've stopped thinking about this long ago, but I'm still using it because I'll probably never forget it or the username

    Hm, that actually is one I've wondered about. Smile I used to have a tough time remembering it, though I think I've got it down now...
