The Evan's Gambit because it's exciting and dynamic.

Then the Pirc because I love hypermodern chess.

Scotch: Because I like the positions that it gives

And the sicilian: Because it is the best defense of all

I'm not really sure. I'm not the best with openings, but I know how to not fall behind all the time.

I've come to like e4, followed by Ne3, then set up 2 pawns on e3 to d4, as well as deploying my other knight to f3. After that, Bd3, and then I can castle kingside. I'm not sure what opening this is, but it seems to me its fairly common.

I guess from h777's comment its the english opening.

I don't know too many names for openings, I just like getting ideas from people.
