Where does your PSN username come from?

Mine was originally one of my characters names, I made it up on the spot then I later found out Kami in Japanese has several meanings, two of which being paper and God/type of celestial spirit so I'm kinda rolling with both of those meanings, leaning more towards paper though as I love art and God sounds a bit too big-headed for me. Oh and the 1's because just plain kamifox was taken. Here I thought it was original and therefore wouldn't be taken. T_T I made a logo for the paper meaning in LBP2 too, it's an origami fox, wanna see? :P

Bit simple but does the job.

Twitch was my nickname through out high school due to my ADHD and i was a bit of a spaz and i would always try and use just twitch but it was always taken so i used the O_o face that i use to use a lot and i have never run into the problem of it being taken so i use it for everything.

The "lilking" portion of my ID originates from the Gaelic translation of my first name (yes, I'm Irish); for those of you who are curious, a little research will most likely unravel it. The "4294" portion is simply my birth-date numbers - April 2nd, 1994. I also go by lilking94 and littleking94 (for the same reason), but both were already taken when I signed up for PSN in early-2010. The only thing I regret about this ID, is that I did not capitalize the beginning "L", so now my ID is commonly mistaken as "Liking"  :angry:.

I was a big Kingdom Hearts Fan @ the time, and Was going to name it OblivionKey; but said it sounded strange and decided to replace it as Darkness since it still references the Oblivion key's Black color. Darkness can be referenced to almost a lot of games when it involves the evil side of a game's protagonist. I wanted a user that I felt could be recognized for a good time...since some game franchises don't last too much. I added the 92 since it's my birth year's last digits ...and I personally am not a "Oh it's my birthday kind of person" so I sometimes tend to forget my age due to lack of interest, but when i need to remember it I just look at my user and do the math.

 

If I could change my user it'd be "ArmSonic92", Since it references my favorite Anime character Kanade Tachibana's Signature move "Hand Sonic", but decided to use "Arm" over "Hand" since it sounded cooler to me.

When I initially created this profile over a year ago, I didn't want my name to be one with numbers in it. I like the idea of the Grim Reaper existing in the world, so there us the Reaper part at the end. The Blue Fire part is from the fact that blue is the hottest fire, so to say the most dangerous. So Blue Fire (dangerous flame) and Reaper (Grim Reaper) all came together as one word, and there you go! BlueFireReaper.

"The Styx (/stɪks/Ancient GreekΣτύξ [stýkʰs], "Hate, Detest") is a river in Greek mythology that formed the boundary between Earth and the Underworld (often called Hades which is also the name of this domain's ruler). The rivers Styx, Phlegethon,Acheron, and Cocytus all converge at the center of the underworld on a great marsh, which is also sometimes called the Styx."

 

I was taught Latin for 6 years in high school and we had to translate some really cool stories. One of them was about a guy who had to cross the river to save his girl (not Orpheus and Eurydice though) and the hole story was just touching and badass.

My name is Steve, my second name starts with R. Also ties in with Steve the Pirate. Pretty simple haha.

 

I miss my old PSN name SteveAwesome though. Sadly forgot the password to it. However, I don't miss people online telling me I'm not awesome haha.

It's long story but I'll try to keep it short..

 

I've used the name "Krazy" since I was about 12-13 years old, (I'm now 26) The first online game I ever played was Command & Conquer Red Alert 2 on the PC. There's a character on there called Crazy Ivan who specialises in planting bombs... So my very first online name was "KrazyBomb" ("CrazyBomb" was taken).

 

I kept that name for many years and used it over multiple games (Delta Force: Black Hawk Down, Counter Strike: Source, Battlefield 2, just to name a few...)

 

I bought a PS3 back in 2009 and set up my first account with the same name. But I thought the "bomb" bit sounded a bit childish so I dropped it and added the "_99", which was the number on the door of the house that I grew up in.

I originally created this name when I wanted to play a Paladin in EverQuest 1 and when I was younger my dad and I would watch westerns on the weekends sometimes, Wild, Wild West - Have Gun, Will Travel - Rifleman. Have Gun, Will Travel was my favorite of the ones we'd watch. Maybe it's because the character wore all black which is my favorite color, not sure lol. Anyways, the character on the show is named Paladin and the actor was Richard Boone and that's how I came up with the first part. The second part though, Justicius, well Paladins are about justice so I just threw a somewhat Latin flare on the word Justice and came up with Justicius. Therefore BooneJusticius. The name also seemed appropriate since I primarily prefer playing as the defensive/tank character when given the choice.

 

This is the only ID I've ever used where I didn't actually make up the entire thing myself.
