How'd You Get Your Username?

**tttaylorrr** · 03-10-2018, 04:49 AM

something dumb i came up with in high school for xbox live. this was in the height of the CoD franchise and i was so excited to finally get an account; it was literally the first thing i thought of for a username. it's my name with extra letters, just because.

I'm a computer and tech guy. Charles is obviously my first name, 8088 is a very old Intel processor. Charles8088.

Just my business name but kind of a joke about being addicted to reptiles and needing a fix.

First name, middle initial, last name.
OR....one of my hockey coaches started calling me Craiga, so that's been my nickname for most of my life.

Old screen name from AOL (I know, I am dating myself here - turn 38 this month). Came up with it when I was a kid. First initial, middle initial, last initial (DAK) and SKI, so DAKSKI.

I used to be an avid, and good, skier. However, I almost always skied with my father, often out West, and even in Europe. He passed away suddenly 13 years ago, and I haven't skied since. However, I kept the username for forums and such.

I know, pretty boring, but there you have it.

Hahahaha, AOL!! I remember that too (turned 39 in Jan). Yup, I feel old knowing how long ago that was. My first AOL screen name was reebfac. I thought i was clever, but my parents figured out right away it was my initials and beer spelled backwards.

Anyway, thanks for the trip down memory lane and happy upcoming birthday!

Mine is an alternative spelling of 'Valyrian' which is taken from Game of Thrones.

My friends from high school and a few others call me blue because of my blue hair and my favorite animals used to be Wolves so my old usernames used to be Wolfheart so a lot of people online called me Wolf, so I made a new username that merged the two BluuWolf... with blue spelled wrong just to be special..
