How did you come up with your username?

It was a nickname a friend gave me a few years ago and it just kind of stuck.

Well, I like drifting. I like Yoshi and I have no darn idea how I came up with Zero and the 11 was just a random number

Cannotcompute - Couldn't think of anything better when I joined GameFAQs, because I though vgfreak was too generic on a Video Game forum >_>

Kilroy: Mr. Roboto ~ Styx

Luigi: I used it at Boyah because Olimar was taken, and Luigi's mah favowit <3

Olimar: I used it here because Luigi was taken, and Olimar is mah second favowit <3

Byte: Sounded cool, and I didn't really like using Olimar as a Screen name...

Hogans_Man, my name on Nsider.
Got that because Hogan is my nickname.

Oddly enough, I came up with my original user(ChunkeyMunkey) from a show that my nephew was watching, I think it was something someone said on fairly Odd Parents, ugh I can't remember anymore. The name I have now is my real life name.

Well, I couldn't use my standard nicknames on Oldsider, so I decided to go with MasterLinkZ. Since that was taken, I removed the Z and snuck the Young in there, to reflect who I usually play as in Melee.

Doodle · July 05, 2008, 08:16:52 AM

Well, I didn't like my old AIM screen name. So, I decided to make a new one! :)
I draw/"doodle" a lot + I'm a boy + random number = DOODLEboy99
99 seemed to be the only number that went good with it.

And since then I've used it for pretty much everything. :)

Along with everyone else who stole it. :-X

Well, I adore the Zelda icon, I like super heroes, and 22 is my favourite number.
:P

When I first came to the internet, I was an AOL User (And still am) and I wanted to have "Cool" in my name. Obviously "Cool" was already taken and so AOL came abck with suggestions. One of these was "Cool106698". I liked the way "106698" sounded, so I went with that.

After many years went past, SSBM came and I found I was decent at using Pichu, despite always damaging himself. So when I returned to the internet and started joining MSN Chats, I was "Pichu106698" and went with that. After a few years, my name switched to "DBY106698" because I was enjoying RP as my DBY character more than my Pichu one. DBY, for those that don't know, stands for Dark Blue Yoshi and again comes from Melee as I only seem to be good using Yoshi ONLY as the Dark Blue Yoshi. Weird...
