[1]
I've been thinking for a few days, how on earth did people come up with their Eve nicks?
I'll go first:
I came up with my nickname because I always played as Masta Killa in Wu-Tang Shaolin Style when I was a kid
Used it in a little game called Graal Online first, then it got stuck to me for the past 7 years or so.

Del Narveux is a character Ive used in various creative writings, short stories etc. that Ive had to do for classes over the years. When I started playin Eve back in 2004 I didnt know jack about how MMOGs worked and was on a trial so figured Id pick an 'expendable' name other than my main internet nym in case I screwed things up.
Bogus is said internet nym, but that was taken so I went with Cpt Bogus instead for my combat alt (made like 5 months after I started b/c I got bored flying across the galaxy to build stuff or blow stuff up). Dunno why I started with Bogus, I guess it just seemed like a good choice for the online world where everyone tries to pretend theyre someone theyre not. _________________ [SAK] Alumnus--And Proud Of It! -- aka Cpt Bogus Is that my torped sig cloaking your base?

My real Internet handle is "TimeOut", I used it since 1999.
Background: I played Starcraft on Battle.net those days. My internet (stupid ISDN) was very unstable. Every second game I timed out.
In MMOGs I choose more RP-oriented names. Usually along the lines of: Lanea, Lynea, Lynae, Ysira, Velina for female characters. (Disclaimer: Not all those characters are mine ) ___

my name was a random neuron firing in my brain when i was writing fiction a year ago for my English coursework studies. I liked the name so i first used it on 'There' as Johnathon 'Admiral' Desoto, then again on 'Entropia Universe', but when i got fed up of being screwed around by 'Mindark' (The Creaters of 'Entropia Universe'), i switched to 'EVE Online' and used the same name, except i dumped the admiral part.

When I was a young bloke, and played my first Internet game (Star Trek Elite Force), I took the name of a bird - "Hawk". Later, that name seemed to be used more often, so I changed it to 'H4wk' for the Battlefield series.
Then I came to EvE.... and reversed 'H4wk'. 'Kw4h' was born :D
Corpies refer to me as 'Kay doubleyou' (kw) - or 'Hawk' :P _ Planet Sight Wallpaper - EvE map |

When I first started playing freespace 2 online I used to use the alias Wildfire, however when I tried playing other games it was always taken so I started trying to come up with a new one. I was playing tie fighter and fighting a squadron designated Rho and somehow Wild Rho came to mind, I liked the sound of it and have used it in any online game I play since.

When I was playing starcraft as a kid I was using the name "Goblin" because I liked the greenskins from warhammer
Then well in the years the name was obviously abbreviated to "Gob" and in eve in just made up names for main and alts that contained "gob".

Oddly enough, that was where I got my name from too. Actually I had the name Solaris, which I changed to Dark Black when I decided that being good in online games was for noobs and I wanted to be an evil PvPer. I think dark black was related to the equivalent of sec status in Graal - your name changed colour depending on how ebil you were. Dark red was the lowest (I think) and my guild at the time had an injoke that we'd be so evil we'd get a dark black security rating (hilarious, I know).
Thus the name. I changed it to italian when I came to EVE to have a more roleplayerey name.

I generally have almost all of my internet characters/personas begin with either 'n' or 'neb.' From that, I got Nolin. The last name comes from a man named Jacob Riis, a photographer from the American progressive era who photographed and exposed the terrible living conditions of the poor and immagrants.
