Long story...
I once had a friend who introduced me to FF VII, and he always named Red XIII "Havok". Kinda a habit for him, as his brother did the same. I carried on the habit, thought it would make a decent name. Honestly no idea where I pulled Dryke from.

My name is a reaction to my initial attempts to make a fantasy sounding name in an mmo a long time ago. After messing about with old English phones and terrible abuse of double vowels (aa being a frequent offender) and 'odd', though now painfully common, phonetic substitutions (q in place of k, etc) I just thought f**k this and well, cottage pie was born.
every time i see 'aa' in a name though its like stepping on rakes.

Edited by: Mordinn on 18/03/2008 00:41:38 I got three:
Mordinn is based off two different characters. I was reading the Wheel of Time series when I started EVE, and one of the evil dudes in the book was called Moridin, his name means "Death" in the Old Tongue. That coupled the dwarven deity Mordin.
Jr Grae is what I consider to be my gaming personality. My real life nick name is J.R. which are my initials, but everyone always referred to me as Jr (junior). I also once considered changing my last name to Grae because I loved the name. So I use Jr Grae when I want to imagin myself in a game.
Sythia Grae was my first MMO character in Asheron's Call. Sythia comes from the Veruca Salt song Forsythia, and I just explained where Grae comes from.

Plu+to+ni+an adj.
1. Of or relating to the god Pluto or the underworld; infernal.
2. Of or relating to the dwarf planet Pluto.
Original source was Edgar Allen Poe's The Raven ("Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!" Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore")
And from the song Magna of Illusion by Blue Oyster Cult ("My ship is charmed, and called Plutonia.")
Sadly, Pluto became my carebear character... what a waste of a good name. Wish I could switch character names.

Once upon an Eve time,
a guy created an alt named INNONIMATE NIGHTMARE. Inno's goal was to immediately jump into 0.0 as a newbie and never return to hisec. He wrote about it in a very amusing way in a bloggish type thread of epic proportions. If you haven't read it, you should.
INNONIMATE used literary devices sort of like Douglas Adams where he'd make up character names to over emphasise some point. Names like Tighty Tight or Fighty Fight. Well, one of them was Strongy Strong. Making appearances in Super-Sized-Sentences such as this:
"However, having recently become a wealthy CEO of a corporation that did less than the world's laziest man chopped into a million pieces, mixed with the result of an American factory foreman of a plastic alphabet toy factory instructing a member of staff to place the last letter of the alphabet at the end of a row on a conveyor belt ("lay Z"), reassembled into a man called Lazy Laze, and then used to create a three-part collector's edition box set of word-play superheroes with his loyal friends Strongy Strong and Tighty Tight, I was beginning to develop more of an ever-stronger sense of self-identity than a boisterously overconfident man who had accidentally superglued an oversized "glow-in-the-dark" mirror to his face..."
Suddenly Strongy Strong, one of INNONIMATE's word-play super heroes, came to life and accused INNONIMATE of scamming the Eve populace with his "Invest in my corperation, which will do absolutely nothing, and you will receive this nice shiney investment certificate and pretty much nothing else" scheme. Soon the Eve populace was witness to an arguement between the writer and one of his made up characters.
During this arguement Noluck Ned made an offhand comment giving his appraisal of said arguement.
Originally by: Noluck Ned This is Bloody Mcstrange.
And *poof* I was born.
It was a strange time. The power of words seemed to spawn characters at the drop of hat, no matter how inane the comment.
And so I sit in my Alty McAlterson way, awaiting the day when I can train my own skills instead of having to watch that "main" guy hog all the SP time. Desperately needed training so that I might venture out and exact my revenge on Noluck Ned.
But first I've gotta kill this "main" guy... which is a ***** since we're never on at the same time.
So, yeah... I stole my name too!

In our corp chat I was thinking of making a new character but couldn't decide on a name.
A friend suggested picking two words at random and translating them into Icelandic.
I said "what, like 'dustbin' and 'cheese'?"
He said yes, I translated dustbin and cheese into Icelandic and that's my name

Years ago I was looking for a new name to use in online games (browser games like MechWars, TDZK, etc.) and I was caught up in LotR fever at the time. I translated my real name into one of the Elvish modes (I forget whether it was Quenya or Sindarin) and augmented it. Sig removed, inappropriate content.

Long story for mine :)
about... 10years ago was going to something called Laserquest. Kinda like paintball but with light sensors and laser pointers. Wanted my name to be "angel of darkness" but that was too long, so it became Darkangel. Jump forward a couple of years and the TV show darkangel came out... ok show, damn sexy girl as the main character... but as soon as that comes out, Darkangel is a female name.
So i had to go in a different direction, and Drakus is what came outta it.
I can happily say that I am the ORIGNINAL Drakus, and that all the others with that as a first name came after me :)

Edited by: Thorek Ironbrow on 18/03/2008 16:40:41 One of my friends (who will probably post on this thread soon) called his first account using his real name, which he then deleted because he ran out of trial. Then he created a new name with the surname "Assulu" (ass-oo-loo). Now he has a whole family of Assulus.
I try to play with words when created new accounts now. Such as sirnames usually were what your proffession is. I make missiles a lot, and I was thinking of Galvanizing for some reasion, so I came up with Arbiter Galvan for my Deteis alt.

ive been using the name azirapheal online for years, since my early emo (and thankfully grown out of) days
i originally came across it as an old name for the angel of death, and subsequently saw it again about 4 years after more people knew me as azirapheal than my own name in the book, good omens by terry pratchett and neil gaiman - where azirapheal is the angel to crowleys devil
i was tempted to sue but tbh pratchett is a hero of mine anyway

My internet handle has been 'Hunter' for as long as i can remember.
It comes from 2 sources.
1. from a game called Mechcommander (sort of rts version of Mechwarrior) 2. from a mythical figure from the tale of Robin hood called 'Herne the Hunter'
the zeroes i added cuz i was a lazy bum when i started the char, and did not expect to play for longer then the 2 week trial... this is now almost 4 years ago...
So let this be a lesson, don't be lazy with inventing an original name, oh and don't use numbers, cuz u will end up on the top of every local and u can forget about blending in with the masses. _______________________________________________________ CCP, let us pay the online shop with Direct Debit!!!

In the novel "Journey To The Center Of The Earth" by Jules Verne, there is an Icelandic alchemist with the rather odd name of Arne Sakknussemm. As an Icelander, I find the spelling of the last name to be ludicrous, so I modernised it by cutting out most of the double consonants. Furthermore, since this is a futuristic game in outer space, I switched out an S with a Z.
FYI, there is a character in EvE called Arne Sakknussemm. There are no known relations between us. |
