Jestdie
Jest = Joker, Joke,
die= Die

Meaning to be serious, or somthing along those lines

I was trying to get a name for adultswim, back when i first found the internet at the age of 12 (ya sad :'( )
And every thing was taken, that i could think of so i when with Jettstream which was good tell cartoon net work made a program thingy called Jetstream and i was pissed lol

So i thought a name thats unique, sounds good, easy to say and express me ... hours latter with no ideas or luck I when to sleep, when i woke up I just typed it out not even thinking about it kinda surprised my self.

Did make a meaning for it tell 2 years later when i had been asked if it was a play off of Just Die (no its not in any way)

lol Iv had my name for many years its been through good times and bad, I have alot of love/memory's with this name and will keep it for ever

I don't have to tell you ANYTHING!

But I may as well. It started simply as a joke, really.
I used to play Halo Combat Evolved on my computer , (Back when that was all I COULD play.) and it would say when THISPLAYER killed THATPLAYER. So, my name was "A Prius" But I couldn't use a space (Or something like that.) So I simply name myself "A_prius." That way, in mid-game, you'd see something along the lines as "0M6L337PR0 was killed by A_Prius."

So, that's one reason. Another,was that I named a few other gaming accounts Aprius, so my buddies from Halo could add me there as well. Soon it became my name for a lot of games, and forums alike.
Heck, every game I own now, including my offline Profile name for The Xbox360 (Screw Live at the moment.) is Aprius. Guitar hero bands? Aprius. Soul-Caliber home-made characters? Well, Kenny AND Aprius. On BakaBT I added Chan....'cause why the heck not?

But as for a 'real' nickname, I'm known around my school and friends, as 'Fido'. That started way back in 5th grade, where we had two Kenny's in one classroom.(Luckily it's cool, 'cause the other is my best friend.) Apparently, this blew the teacher's mind, so he asked us: "What do you like called?" Obviously, He said Kenny, and I HATE the names Ken/Kenneth, so I simply replied "Fido."

mine's stupid.

A couple of years ago I had some metalhead friends (I'm a metalhead myself), and they started calling me 'pentagram' after a night of heavy drinking where almost everybody passed out due to alcohol intoxication. In the morning nobody remembered why they started called me that way, and I was too hungover to care, so that remained my silly nickname.

... x5ga =>
x because not all online mail services/forums/etc would let you start your nickname with a number
5 = five = penta-
g = gram (SI unit of mass)
a = Romanian definite article, equivalent to 'the' in English. Also because 3 characters is too short.
x5ga => the pentagram

Well, ya said ya like the name Greg and the D probably because AceD has D behind the Ace...

lulz, but anywasy, you like the name Greg and the letter D

koyangisujin · « **Reply #376 on:** July 30, 2010, 08:51:00 AM »

Mine's not that hard to figure out. It's just a different language.

Koyangi = "Cat" in Korean, or for those super otaku who forgot English, "neko." Why? I like cats. Especially stupid ones that make me laugh.
Sujin = My Korean name as dubbed by those above me.

And here's a supplies for you...no, I'm not Korean. Though I have been known to sprechen ze lingo from time to time. Oh yes, and "hello," as it were. I guess you'd call this an intro?

people called me remix because i stuttered back then

Bloodfox · « **Reply #378 on:** July 30, 2010, 04:28:53 PM »

When I started playing World of Warcraft, I decided to make a warrior, since until then I always played the Warrior/Barbarian type in RPGs (Nowadays I play Hunter though).
When coming up with a name for the character I decided to have a name that represented both the menacing and violent side of my character and the smart & cunning side of it as well.
Blood stood in for the violent part and Fox stood in for the cunning part: Bloodfox.
I liked the name and when I created an account on Boxtorrents, I just used the same name.
After that, in WoW, All my characters got the Fox in the end, because I was used to people calling me Fox or Foxie.

nekozelda · « **Reply #379 on:** August 04, 2010, 04:14:18 PM »

I got mine because I wanted a neutral name for me and my fiance to use.
so since I love cat girls I put neko for me and since my fiance's obsessed with the legend of zelda games zelda came in.
