What the origin of your PSN name ?

Well I liked the word Glitch, and a character I like from Rouge Company is called Gl1tch so it works out well, and used the birth year of my favourite character from the the show The 100 Clarke Griffin, born October 2131. After going through a lot of usernames I like this one.

Brave-MAGE was my original PSN name, I love magic in fantasy stories and RPGs, particularly healing magic so that’s why mage was in my psn name.

 

Brave, was probably a bit random as I didn’t want it too long.

 

I changed my psn name more than 10 times over the last 2 years (2020- 2022).

 

So to avoid having to edit this post again, I will just stick with what I said above, regardless if I change it again ??.

psn: funboy1246 

I'm a huge fan of the original crow movie. imo only one worth watching. the four gansters that kill eric draven and his wife at the start t bird, tin tin, skank, and funboy. he was my favorite character in the movie cause he was always joking even with his dying breath. like to think im like that. ill always have a joke witty comment or smart ass remark even with my dying breath.

Is it dedicated to one of your favorite games,character,athlete,artist etc or is it simple your own original idea ?

Mine is KANE-FIRE and is because my favorite WWE wrestler is Glen Jacob better know by his ring name Kane.So anywho What the origin of your PSN name.

I guess that now it is because of Final Fantasy XV

My very first nickname on Playstation 4 used to be: XxLockdownZxX.

Lockdown just used to be a word I liked (although now that the whole world is under the influence of covid-19 it doesn't seem so cool anymore). The 'Z' came from the first letter of my last name. And lets just forget about all the X's in the name. As my friend always used to say: Your nickname looks like it belongs on Pornhub......

 

As soon as we were able to change our nickname for the first time I changed it to: its_ArchroniX.

As a kid I always looked up to Youtubers that had creative names so I decided to create my own name. Archronix is a mixture of a few words; archon, chronicles and onix which are all taken out of games I used to play when I was younger (Archon is mainly from Destiny, Chronicles from the many RPG's I used to play and Onyx from the Pokemon games). The 'its' in front of my name is just something I took from Youtubers as well as I saw many of them had this in front of their nickname too and I thought it didn't look bad.

 

I know it's all a little far fetched though I like having a little meaning in my nickname :)

Had to learn german for 6 years, always found the language extremely unappealing. That was until we had to learn a rhyme about seasons. Herbst is german for fall, which is my favorite season. Now, that was already taken on some online game I've been playing so I thought of the Sims 3's Sunset Valley. And that's how I came up with Herbset lol. People usually think I like weed or something

Mines from a quote from one of my favourite characters Yoshitsugu Ōtani in Samurai Warriors 4, "I can not go against the flow of time." FlowOfTime and TheFlowOfTime was taken and i didnt like the look of "oFlowOfTime" and i didnt want a random number on the end so I used Ov instead of "Of" (and FlowOvTime was created. (Sounds good to me). Not sure why this Flow of time part stuck out to me, but i like it.

Sonic the Hedgehog + the first number that came to my head in that moment

 

First used it on my Sploder (anyone remember that old site?) and YouTube accounts, and have since taken some variation of it wherever I go online.

 

The underscores are there because someone already took "blueblur98" on PSN.

Mine simply comes from the way I've felt my whole life. The way most people are with their love of socializing and being so touchy-feely with each other seems so odd to me. Apparently I've been this way since I was very young and didn't like to be held when I was a small child. My preschool teacher told my parents I would play off in a corner by myself instead of playing with the other kids. I guess I'm just naturally antisocial. Some family members have said I must have been put here by aliens. ?

 

Anyway, I can be in a crowded room full of people and feel as if I'm the only member of my species there. It's the way I've always felt, so NotExactlyHuman seemed appropriate. I may have the same external packaging, but what's on the inside is vastly different.

Mine is quite simple and maybe even a bit unimaginative. 

For half my life now Nightwish has been my favorite band. Nothing and nobody will ever change this. 

With the release of their album Endless Forms Most Beautiful came the song The Greatest Show On Earth. Ever since I first listened to this song, this masterpiece back in... 2014(?) it has been my favorite song, and I doubt any other song will ever come close to what this song does to me when I listen to it. There simply is no competition, no song that could ever push this masterpiece from its throne and become my new No. 1 favorite song. 

 

And the very first line of The Greatest Show on Earth, sung in a beautiful, almost angelic soprano is

Archaean Horizon

 

Archaean is actually an uncommon way to spell Archean, but I wanted my ID to be a reference and homage to my favorite band and song, even if that means a lot of people struggle with the pronunciation.

I like HP Lovecraft and was born in '72.

 

It's my original name - I rarely play online but when I have it's often become the topic of conversation. First they're like, how the hell do you even say that?

 

South Park made it a little more well known. Lovecraft wrote in the 1920's and a bit later so he gets the first on that one ?

One of my favorite movies ever is the original Crow. the one with brandan lee. one of the four main goons of the movie is named funboy. he was always my favorite of the bad guys so i just kinda used it for everything. email addresses and such and when psn came round bam. kept up the tradition

 

One of my all time favourites too!

 

"Heeeere Funboy.....heeeeere Funboy...

Jesus walks into a hotel..."

 

Brandon Lee would have been a big time star. Brilliant performance.

The first PlayStation game I can remember playing was Final Fantasy VIII -- I went over to a neighbour's house and they were playing the game and they eventually let me play-I just loved it! Played a couple more Final Fantasy games since then, but when I got a PlayStation 3 and I was thinking on the spot what my username was going to be, the first thing that came to mind was the game/Rinoa - so my username is in reference to that ?

 

Final Fantasy VIII - Wikipedia

Back when I was a teenager my favorite perfume was Dior "Pure Poison." I collected all the perfumes in that line. Now I boycott brands that test on animals and think department store spray perfumes are comically overpriced and full of alcohol, but I still collect perfume oils and my favorites at the moment are called "Love Is Nearer Death" and "Succubi" so the username still sort of works.

You know how back in the early youtube and myspace days people would declare they were fans of an artist in their username like greendayfan65 or taylor_swift_fan_24? Well at the time I was deep into Resident Evil lore and I thought Wesker was the shit so I decided to call myself Weskerfan and I added the 75 because I like that number. I hated my name for years, cursing my younger self whenever someone asked for my PSNID. However, over the years I've embraced it and I don't really think I'll ever change it.
