  • I chose this username because my name is Alfredo and I'm a music composer, it's as simple as that :)

  • InGen - International Genetics Technologies

    Nate - the character from TWD 400 Days

    Kenny - I kind of wish I picked something else but I like Kenny so yeah.

  • I stole it.

    Joking, of course, but I was 9 when I came up with it. I've had a Lingvo dictionary on my PC back then, so it may have come from that, but there was no immediate connection, I just came up with this fancy nickname and have been using it for over 8 years by now.

  • I was trying to join Club Penguin, someone had already taken dojo but it recommended me dojo32161 and I thought it had a nice ring to it.

  • Because I'm half blind. I was originally ABlindKid, as in you were killed by A Blind Kid. When I turned 18, one of my friends suggested that I change it. People always called me Blind Max anyway, so I added the Big and it sounded perfect.

  • Because I love Sam & Max, but i'm not sure if I'm good enough to be their number 1 fan so I decided on 11 instead.

  • I wasn't really creative. I wish I could change it right now but it's just my name and the number seven.

    Because mine is true.

  • Because you're either dead or alive.

  • TelltaleMikeTelltaleMike Former Telltale Staff

    Mine's pretty complicated... You see, I work at Telltale... and [Spoilers ahead] my name is Mike.

  • My favorite color is green. One day I decided to call myself by it and it just stuck :p

  • stealing a username sounds like something mr. house would do lol

  • kinda self explainatory... it has something to do with Twd character Reggie and his missing arm, and then Reggie became my nickname...

  • My favorite color is green.

  • Because of Rhys and Sasha's pinky promise in Episode 1.

  • Well as far as I can remember I wanted to had the word Official for some reason in my name, I was reading the Fables comic at the time and the maybe comes from me not being certified as a Sheriff.

  • It's a line from my favourite character in The Walking Dead.

  • kenjisalkkenjisalk Telltale Alumni

    I've been using this screenname for so many years it feels weird using anything else lol.

    My best friend from childhood (who consequently got me into so many things I love now: video games, animation, comic books etc) was named Kenji, and Jonas Salk is my favorite scientist (he invented the Polio vaccine).

  • A MOSFET is a type of transistor, and I always thought it sounded like a rapper name. I found a lot of fellow Electrical nerds when I played Starcraft with it, but sadly no one seems to have recognized it around here

    :(

    A) A lack of creativity, prompting me to smash together a random adjective with a random noun.

    B) When signing up for PSN, CrazyCake was taken so I just added an extra 'a' and I decided to stick with that. :I

  • lol

  • I didn't pick it. My dad made it up and it's stuck for about 5 years now.

  • Because I really fucking like Gary Oak

  • It was 8th grade. It was the very first day of school, and to better remember our names, my homeroom teacher has us play a game. Every person in the room had to say a descriptive word that started with the same first initial as their name and then say their name. (Example: Crazy Caitlyn, Zealous Zach, Silly Sarah.) We was allowed to use our First, Middle, or last names(s.) Two of my friends who went before me came up with pretty good ones ("Dreamy Dewey" and my favorite, "Tasty Tyler.") I figured I had to have a good one. One of my middle names is Banjo. When my turn came, I proudly proclaimed to the class "Beautiful Banjo!"

    Ever since then, I've used "Beautiful Banjo" as my username for pretty much everything.

  • If I'm being honest, I have no fucking idea. First alliteration I could think of, I imagine.

  • Because my surname is sexy as fuck and when I strongly dislike someone I make them refer to me as "M'lord" if they want/need to speak to me or I don't acknowledge them. I chose "1138" because Star Wars.

    So I figured I'd just go with "LordGoss1138"

  • I did it in homage to my favourite band.

  • I didn't want to come up with a clever or awesome username, so I stuck with the first four letters of my first and last name, the age when I signed in, and left it as that.

    I was thinking of using my full last name Walker by coincidence because of The Walking Dead, but then I thought it might have sounded a little too pretentious, so I left it out.

  • I... Don't.... Really... Know. It's just been an online username of mine for awhile.

  • I choose this one because it is my first and middle name and I have no creativity. If I could change it I would.

  • I chose my name because i have used "Ozzy" for online games for years but when i registered here @Ozzy was taken so i added UK to the end as i am from the UK.

  • I logged in this forum after playing TFTB Zero Sum, I was super hyped about ep 2 and how the dynamic between Rhys and Jack would have played out and I started thinking "now Jack is in Rhys'head, what if he takes over his body? What if Rhys becomes more and more similar to Jack? What if he turns into Handsome Rhys?" Eventually that name got stuck in my head. In the same day I signed up and I couldn't think of anything better than Handsome Rhys as my username.

    I played game called Stronghold Crusader a lot and yeah, it did struck.

    Internet became a big thing and I needed nickname for my online identity. I kind of treat it as my secondary real name.

    Plus Final Fantasy VII which I consider the greatest single player Final Fantasy in the series has character known as "Cloud Strife."

    So, Crusader Lord + Cloud Strife = Clord

    Because my nickname when I was younger was Lottie, and I wanted to make my name to look cool so I put two i's at the end of it.

    Lu just comes from my ao3 username 'lu-lu'

  • Well, first of all it's a GoT-related username, as I am a big fan of GoT. The other reason for it is not that wildlings would really be my favorite part in GoT, even if I do like them, it's just that I'm from Finland and when it comes to medieval times people here where more or less wildlings. "Finland" (not that there would have been such country or kingdom back then - just lands that were divided between some clans) was really the place in Europe where Christianity for example came the last.

    So, we might not be "wildlings" anymore, but it's a nice username - oh, and of course I have to be king :D

  • Just the part in the circle. The rest is some random circuit.

    this a MOSFET? (sorry about the size)

  • I always thought it sounded like a rapper name.

    Probably because of Mos Def.

    That's what I thought of...
