Where does your PSN username come from?

[MMDE]

I wonder if I ever actually explained where my username came from. It's basically an abbreviation of a longer username I used to use. This older username had it's root in a PC game I played when I was pretty young, which allowed you to type in the name of the various characters in the game. More specifically, you could even name the bad guy. I found the username to be pretty funny, and kept it, and it fit me well with my early online persona.

 

 

Early online persona... uhm, I remember once, I went to a library to use the PC there, and the person before me forgot to log out of their e-mail... I deleted everything, emptying trash bin etc, no way to get back the e-mails, and I left a nice little message for them about what had just happened. Yup, I can be a douche. I got tons of troll accounts for that kind of stuff these days though.

Leandro is my name, RHCP (Red Hot Chili Peppers) is a band I love and has been part of my entire life.

 

Although I'm still a huge fan of the band, I'd change my username if I had the chance.

I played Soldier of fortune 2 for a long time. One of my names in that game was Akuma. One of the guy's in one of the clans I was in "Kxxzxz" ( something like that was his name ) used to call me Kumies. We named it Koomies, but now I realize it looks more like Cumies

This thread is like 400 hundred years old now, so probably no-one will read this anyways, but hey-ho.

Many people think my psn is to do with driving games (hot wheels) (drifting) etc etc, however, there is a Norwegian ambient musician called " Biosphere"

and one of his many tracks is called  "warmed by the drift" of which i used to play most nights, it helped me to relax from manic gaming and fall asleep.

I would put a link to the track <<here>> but i'm not competent enough, sorry.

[DarkEsdese]

My ID is the original name of Esdeath, before someone thought Esdeath is better than Esdese. The Dark part I really don't know where it came, I think it's because she's a sadistic, Of course if I had a chance I'd change it. It's so big for me i rather one smaller

[Xh8XincXsniperX]

mine is from my old clan h8 inc and i was the sniper of the clan., very simple

[PlanetSurvival]

I honestly don't remember; I guess I thought it sounded cool at the time.

 

Although both capital letters in my name spell out PlayStation, it was completely unintentional on my part.

[EstebanFox]

- When people think you're dying, they really, really listen to you, instead of just...

- instead of just waiting for their turn to speak?

[PhillipaaChicken]

It is a very early Radiohead song...I thought the name was quite humorous lol

[Ryko3674]

I got Ryko from a book I read a few years back and stuck with it. As for the numbers they were the numbers I originally used for an MMO username

Named after a sword from one of my favorite fantasy books "the Elric sagas".

[Lackadaisicool]

Lackadaisical. I'm lazy. I tossed in "cool." That's how it came about. Oh, I'm not cool at all.

[xFalionx]

When I started playing WoW in the Burning Crusade expansion, about 8 years ago I was starting to play on one of the many RP-realms of the game (before they were full erotic RPers *shiver*) and I had to think of a name for my first character, a bloodelf hunter. I pondered for a pretty long while before naming this guy Faloin (back then I didn't think about what it would sound like in English ). I played that character until I was like level 20, which took quite a long time in the early days of WoW, and noticed that I'd much rather have that I and O switched. So the next thing I did was create the exact same bloodelf hunter now named Falion. The funny thing is that character never surpassed level 40. When I was lvl 40 one of my friends started playing WoW and he wanted to play on the realm that his big brother was playing on (with like 7 max level characters) I followed him and created my current main Anáton (since Falion, my perfect name that I spent hours on finding was already used).

From this point on I always called myself Falion in games and on websites.

 

But then, 3 years in the future, something magical would happen. On the 11th of November 2011 the newest iteration of the Elder Scrolls franchise would come out and with it an unimaginable amount of adventures to come. So, as always, I create myself another Falion. I continue to play the game like it should be played, running everywhere like a madman and ignoring the story completely because that's how Skyrim works and decide to visit Morthal. Then, on my usual trip of theft exploration through new villages, I find him. This was the day that Falion stood in front of Falion. 

 

So since Bethesda stole my name (evil bunch ) I started seeing my username already being taken on numerous occasions. That's why there are x's in front of and behind my PSN ID.
