What the origin of your PSN name ?

[Colin_Raleigh]

Between 2007 and 2010 I wrote four fanfics based on the now long dormant Highlander TV/movie franchise. For a time, one of the lead characters in the four stories went by the alias of Colin Raleigh. That's where my PSN username comes from.

[unkind-tear4]

Sony picked it for me when I started this profile in late 2020.

That was nice of them 

[iXanon]

I used the same alias on Xbox 360 after retiring my previous one (xOBKx).

 

It is pronounced "I-Zan-On" and was intended to be interpreted as "I Is Anon".

[mysticalonrush]

Basically first letters from my favourite games and characters

[TurtlePM]

Turtle from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and PM from my name (Pedro Miguel) 🤩

[BagusCahyoJP]

This is the origin account name that will appear on PSN. "BagusCahyoJP" is abbreviated as Bagus Cahyo Jaya Pratama. This name matches my identity card.

 

 

 

[esstee11]

Just my initials. And my lucky number. 

esstee11 = S+T+11

 

One day I'll come up with a better one. lol.

[GabrielMS13]

Mine comes from my 1st email account that I still use. It's my first name followed by my initials and my age at the time it was created. In hindsight I should have used the year of my birth instead. Oh, well.

 

I use the GabrielMS13 name and slight variations of it for pretty much everything that requires an account.

[POEman553]

I picked POEman553 because:

1) POE is my last name

2) I was relatively new with the online world and with PlayStation and didn't want an user name where people would message me with "hey baby, whatcha doing later?" and presume I'm a woman. I just was like, "Surely someone can't message me with that if POEman is my user name" (doesn't stop me from getting it though)

3) 553 has no significance

[FocusDR]

Call of duty clans. MW2/MW3 era is when “Focus” came to be. Then I left clans and sniping etc.. got rid of my consoles and had a break. Got back into gaming some years ago and needed a new name so this was my choice. Along with my initials 

[Ptirle]

Butterfly in Serbian language is Leptir, so I just took first two letters and put them last, so Leptir - ptirLe. Shatrovacki slang speech, common in Serbia.

Haha, I did the same by picking a female name, no "watcha doing later" messages thankfully, but that's just because Gravity Rush was my latest platinum in my previous account, I loved the game and even more the character, didn't want to stop playing it and was so emotionally connected with Kat. Gravity Queen is her ultimate rank name. Also, there are too many kings around when it comes to user names, and also too many male protagonists. The triple E's obviously come from Electronic Entertainment Expo, not because the correct name was already taken!

[FatRabidHamster]

Wanted to start a new profile as I never cared for my old one when I was younger so had a load of unobtainable platinums,

The name comes from my hamster who was being a spoiled brat and wrecking his house because I wouldn't give him anymore treats. 

[Pray_4_the_End]

I used to be a big fan of Bring Me the Horizon way back in the Day when they used to be heavy (Count your Blessing days). They had a pretty popular song back then called "Pray for Plagues," and my name is a spin on that. Took out 'Plagues' and threw in 'The End,' and the rest is history. I even ended up tattooing "Pray for the End" on my neck, so it's safe to say I'll be keeping this PSN name forever lol. 

[RebelsHeart]

My name is based on my most favorite First Aid Kit song called 'Rebel Heart'.

I just added an 's' after Rebel, since it sounds better that way. 

Now most of my friends call me Rebels, and I have loved it ever since

[ninja-star95]

ninja-star95 because I love ninjas and 95 is my birth year. That's about it really. Came up with the name when I was in 8th or 9th grade lol. 

[Fey]

Mine means Pink Angel. Think nothing else of it. It's a cute name.

[GanseySargent]

i just combined the names of two characters from my favorite book

[mentos-are-life]

When I first bought my PS3 around 2014-2015 I was setting up my account and I literally sat on the username screen for about an hour trying different names but none were available. Then I thought of something funny. When I would play games I would eat a roll of regular mint Mentos and so I thought why not mentosarelife, and it was available so I added the - in-between so it would be easier to read and that's how I came up with my username and immediately after that I played Darksiders 2  

[GothGirlMaxine]

Pretty simple no doubt but as a goth girl named Maxine, the name GothGirlMaxine makes so much sense in my opinion ^^

Nothing special but I love it. 

[Mr_Fluffy_Pants_]

Named after my cat lol

 

was late to the party and I was thinking of so many names, everything was taken. 
 

that’s why there’s so many underscores in my name because even “mr_fluffy_pants” was taken 

[Darghel]

I was a stupid boy who liked edgy names, in particular edgy fantasy names, as I loved to create characters in every game.

 

Darghel was a dark elf character I made in the past - I think D&D? Not sure though - and his full name was Darghel Khanar. I even used this name in Shin Megami Tensei 3, with the nickname being "Darkhan". Again, edgy boy stuff.

 

When I got my ps3 in 2009, I was 20 years old, and still loved fantasy stuff, so I kept that name. I really don't use it much anymore - I'm not edgy anymore, instead I love cute stuff more, especially birds -  and I always thought to change it something else, but it's nostalgic to me so I never had the strength.

[CooL_BoY_777]

its my own original idea 😎👍

[ImKelton]

I thought... I'm Kelton so ImKelton. Used to be ImKellton. No idea why but I took it out when you could change your name.

 

My xbox journey is more interesting.

I used to be "WailingStraw049" before changing it to Cookiecow123. Because I had watched a Minecraft YouTube channel called CookiePug123. Anyway so it was that for a while before being changed to BigLadMelton. Cause that was a nickname before just shortening it to Melton. Because I'm known more as Melton than Kelton haha
