    I look at all the different screen names and I wonder how some came to be. Anyone want to share the meaning behind or the purpose for your screen name.

    Mine is OutofZCloset (out of the closet) because 20 years ago, before I met my wife, my screen name was NZcloset (In the closet). She started talking to me because of that name. Its also funny how many people didn't know thats what it meant. Strange. So this name is just a spin on that.

    Anyone else want to share how they came up with their screen name?

    I'm into creepypastas and one of my favorites is about a fictional videogame called "Killswitch"

    It's just the title of a song, there's no deep meaning. In English it's 'mistress of the fire'.
    The song is by Subway to Sally, just in case anyone is interested.

    Mine is named after one of my favourite male anime characters. It is clear from dramtical murder so the clear comes from his name and as in the anime and game he is always associated with jellyfish that is where the jellyfish part comes from.

    My username comes from an episode title of an anime (Tokyo Ghoul). I thought it was quite nice, even despite what happens at the end of the episode. Not entirely sure why I like the sound of cloud burst so much but I thought it was p good, thus the username was born. :U

    I tried to say that I was a random Comic Conner (I love Comic Con, but I can only go when I can afford it). But I accidentally said I was a random Connor Con (Connor was the real life name I was using at the time and it was fairly new to me, so I think I had it on my mind at the time). It stuck. But I only use it here now; everywhere else has been changed to awildC, which is Pokémon reference. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I didn't choose my name. But it's one of the person who chose it's hobbies (super smash bros).

    I want to change it but I don't know what to.

    My username is a variation of a nickname I use on other sites, I orgionally devised it from a character called Keith Apicary, a crazy sega obsessed man child. Trust me, its actually quite funny.

    Either way, he made an album, and one of the songs was titled SAY GAH, I thought it was an awesome spoof of the sega name, and I decided to spoof it further hehe.

    I have no idea what was going on in mind when I was creating this account. I want to change it to but I don't think I can... anyway, I find it unique so I'll just live with it.

    I put a Greek symbol and one of my favorite emotions together. I do that for most of them.

    It's just my name, if I used my normal screen name I'd be too easy to look up. I like being not banned. :lol:
