What Inspired Your Username On The Rock Band Forums?

[HylianWill]

Alright, I'm not sure if something like this has been posted before, but I could not find it if it was. I was just wondering what the inspiration behind your username here is?

I picked HylianWill.

Hylian is from The Legend of Zelda videogame series, it is what the inhabitants of Hyrule are. I've always been a huge Zelda fan, I even have the Triforce and Eagle Wings tattooed on myself, and Will because my name is William, but I go by Will.

What about you?

[xXjAmEZXx]

my name is james, therfore i do jamez because the z makes it look cool, i add 2 x's on each end because i can.

[ryan12147]

My name is Ryan, and numbers I have in certain sports are 12 (baseball), 14 (soccer), and 7 (hockey).

[CountWaesche]

Count Waesche is my title in the micronation of Westarctica.

[maitee1]

eh, I used to be maiteekwin, pronounced my-tee-quin, but everyone called me maitee. So then I decided to become the maitee1...:)

[DrifterUK]

Mines basically my gamertag, minus the space.
In case your interested, my GT came from when I did games testing on Burnout Paradise for a few weeks, and I ended up breaking the in-company drifting record, by about 7000ft

[ThunderCurls]

[DeadPhoenix223]

Phoenix's are a sign of luck. I was born Feb. 23rd (2/23).

Put everything together and DeadPhoenix223 means Bad Luck on Feb. 23rd.

[Oscar-Rio]

hallucinogens

[bubblegumpop]

I made a pink and fluffy character on a game(city of heroes) and they said I couldn't use the name Jigglytuff...so this is what I came up with, pink and fluffly, with with a POP!

[Sarge51]

I used to be a RvB nerd and that's the name I used on certain forum sites. It was better than "aaj111" or my gamertag name, which was conjured up randomly while playing an MMO. Kind of regret picking it, because using an avatar with anything non-halo in it just seems weird.

[Soratar]

I am a big fan of Kingdom Hearts. I am also a huge fan of Avatar: The Last Airbender. Take Sora from KH, and Avatar from the show, and you end up with Soratar.

[Apples]

I picked Apples because on most major forums/websites such a common word is already taken, so I was amazed to get it here.

[trg007]

My initials are T.R.G. and Goldeneye 007 is one of my favorite games of all time. In fact, many of my favorite games were on the N64. :)

Oh, and INB4 Nash comes in here and says he made this same thread a year ago. ;)

[bmaninc]

When I was younger, I used to imagine I owned my own company, and that it was called Bman Incorporated. Thus, bmaninc.

Absolutely no one calls me bman IRL.

Arby N' the Chief is betar!!! :p

[Pwnz0r3d]

This is my name for everything (online games, forums, email, myspaces...)
Its like my alias.

I honestly thought you were Croatian or something and 'b' was your first initial and your last name was pronounced "man-inch" which would be spelled maninč haha :o

[bmaninc]

Nope, its pronounced bmanink.

[Explosion2]

My soccer team when I was little was the Explosion, and when I joined planet hot wheels (oh yeah, I ruled the planet of hot wheels), Plain old "Explosion" was taken, so I made it Explosion1. Eventually after visiting several other websites, it evolved to Explosion2.

[BuRn7 CaK3]

Portal

'Nuff Said

"You will be burnt, and there will be cake."

[Wolfbeckett]

Beckett is the name of my favorite character from the game Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines. One of my favorite fictional characters of all time actually. I added Wolf to the front of it because Beckett was taken on a lot of sites and such, and Beckett can turn into a wolf in the game. I first used it in WoW so it had to be short enough to be accepted there ;).

[schmeankman]

The Heffernan's friend's last name in the King of Queens, in the episode 'The Shmenkmans'.

[Billy-93]

Billy is my name and I was born in 93, adventurous i am ;)

[NormanCoxwell]

Me and some guys were sitting in my living room late at a party. It was like 4 AM and everyone besides me was pretty drunk. We were just sitting around in my living room wii bowling and naming miis. There was this one that this one kid made, I dont even remember his name. We decided on the name Norman Coxwell. It was funny and we started joking about it. Than my sister stumbles into the room and just yells "Norman Coxwell's a DICK!" and it was one of the most hilarious things ever. So for awhile my xbox gamertag was Norman Coxwell. However over time the story just became less and less funny to tell and started getting kind of sad, so I decided to change it to what it is now. Something I feel much more comfortable with along with everyone else feeling more comfortable with. Plus Im the only one that clearly remembers the events of that night. However my rockband membership was created during the time I was Norman Coxwell, so I kept it as such. Now since I can not change my name, Ive decided to live with it.

[OrdealByFire]

Nothing.

I've had this name for about 5 years.

[Tank9088]

My name is Frank and I love the movie Old School. Will Ferrell's character was Frank the tank and I just added random numbers because someone already had tank.

[ThatAuthoringGroup]

Noble is my name.

Yes my parents hated me even before birth.

[jeccaneko]

My name is Jecca. I like cats. Neko is the Japanese word for cat.

[nashphx13z]

@Ted: No, I will not bring that up. :p (although this style of thread has been done twice before)

nash = Steve Nash
phx = Phoenix, the team he plays for
13 = his number
z = ...well, nashphx13 was already taken on AIM many years ago, so I added a z, because they are awesome. It just stuck.

Canadian!

[nashphx13z]

Canadian!

Actually, he was born in Johannesburg, South Africa. But yeah, he grew up in Canada. :p

[Banky71]

Mine is inspired by Jason Lee. The greatest pro skateboarder turned actor in the history of mankind.

[ArchangelZero]

I've always had a fascination with angels, especially Archangels. And the Zero I added because I started using it as an ending for some usernames, basically Zero meaning beginning, middle, end, and nothingness. (and I just thought it sounded cool:D)

[Nitz13]

Mine Came from the best Adult Cartoon ever.
Undergrads! I loved that show to death and could probably recite all 13 epidosdes. :p


I will forever be waiting for a 2nd season :(

[back_blows]

My username is fueled by my hatred of the 'back.

[Tego1in]

I was thinking of a name for a fantasy game a few years ago.
The one is because when I signed up for XBL under Tegolin, I did it on the computer so I didn't get the free month, so I made another one called Tego1in.
I wish I didn't have that "1."

[Memento Mori]

Latin phrase meaning "Remember you shall die" or "Remember you are mortal". Always liked it. Plus it reminds masquerade of a cool movie so that's good. :)

[RicoTheAwesomeCat]

I made a comic strip when I was younger with a cat named Rico as the main character. I still have a notebook full of drawings from when I was a kid, my favorite is a picture of Rico melting faces with an epic guitar solo.

[Memento Mori]

Gimpy is awesome. I'm still waiting for a second season of Clone High. :(

[BuRn7 CaK3]

Latin phrase meaning "Remember you shall die" or "Remember you are mortal". Always liked it. Plus it reminds masquerade of a cool movie so that's good. :)

It's also Flyleaf's 2nd album title too.

[DethTung]

My username originates from Bloom County, in which Steve Dallas formed a metal band named DeathTounge and got Opus, Bill and Hodge Podge to perform. I decided to use it as the name of my band in GH3, but the full name didn't fit, so it was shortened to DethTung.

[timmay9]

Oh hello, I use the search function (http://www.rockband.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43262).

[n4sc4r]

I couldn't think of a decent username, but I love NASCAR. I then made the name Nascar, but looked it over and thought it seemed plain, so I added the 4's in place of the a's. I like it alright.

[Alright_Computer]

Oh hello, I use the search function (http://www.rockband.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43262).

Oh hello, that thread hasn't seen a post in 5 months.

[Cubecubed]

ok bear with me here.

I had a character on WoW a long time ago,named Wisdomcube,after a character on Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

My original Gamertag was Wisdumcube, because the original spelling was taken.

I tried to make it Wisdomcube here,but that was taken,so i chose Cubecubed because it was the third mutation of that name,Cube to the third power,Cubecubed. :)

[NoMoreVillains]

Derives from that awesome Wii game, No More Heroes. Since I was feeling original and I sometimes consider myself a villain, I signed on as NoMoreVillains.

[bmaninc]

Oh hello, I use the search function (http://www.rockband.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43262).

Oh, hello, you're a _____.

[tridentgum0]

The first part is quite obvious, yet deceiving. I don't chew nearly as much gum as you would believe, and the Tridentgum thing came from the fact I was chewing some when I set up my YT under tridentgum453 last October. The 0 in this name, however, represents my IQ.

[Mega-Tallica]

Obviously Metallica and Megadeth. At the time I was deciding on what my username should be, I though Metallica and Megadeth were the greatest thing ever and therefore I combined both their names in my username. I regret it now because I've since moved on to much better music. I wish I could change it and think of something really original. That's a lot of pressure thinking of a username, you really have to put a lot of thought into it.

[madcapmatt]

That's a lot of pressure thinking of a username, you really have to put a lot of thought into it.
Not for everyone; Xbox Live decide my name for me after randomly selecting pre-generated ones for about a minute. I like my username because it reflects my play style on the drums. Though, originally I played a lot of shooters and NEVER waited for my teammates. Running in like a madman is the only way to go.:cool:

[BlackManRockin]

Well I didnt think many African American people played rockband so....yeah.
Since African-American Man Rockin Wouldn't fit....
I used Blackmanrockin
Its what I am
Its what I do.

But sadly...
Im actually a hedgehog

[R33DH4M]

Lots of Microphones and 2 MC's

[trueguitarist88]

on youtube my username is truegamer88. So when i joined this site, i had recently got an electric guitar. So thus, trueguitarist88 was born. The 88 is there because on youtube that's the year I said I was born. I'm really 13 though.

[Rock_Starman]

Rock star wen with rock band. I was really hoping Starman by David Bowie would be in the game but we got Suffragette City instead then inexplicably Queen ***** and Moonage Daydream instead of Starman and Ziggy. Then nothing else. Wich is just sad.

[ThrobingCane]

my friends and I were trying to think of funny usernames and stuff and we just thought of this and I stuck with it.

[Ravioli1992]

The fact that my name is Rav, I love pasta and was born in the year 1992. pretty self explanitory.

[BlackManRockin]

Ya the first time I changed that rule was in Left 4 Dead...in the campaign mode anyway. In versus...all bets are off...CHARGE!!!:p

[kiggidykev]

I used Kiggidykev as my tag in Halo 2 when we played deathmatches, and still I like it.

The "iggidy" part comes from the Dominic the Donkey song, not from Family Guy.

[harveyglobetrot]

In an episode of The Simpsons Marge says to Bart that they should go and play "the basketball", straight after which she says "I'm no Harvey Globetrotter but..." at which time she is silenced by Bart's groans of embarrassment.

She immediately follows this gem with "Watch out for the Shaq attack...*throws basket ball into Bart's face*...I told you to watch out!"

Hence, a forum name (and XBL gamertag) was born.

[jrcronlakers]

I have always used mine for every thing well actually JrLakers was already used for XBL. So when that happens I add Cron. It was a tag name one of my brothers used. He died back in 1994 so I have always used it when my original is unavailable. The Jr cause I am one. The Lakers cause I am a huge Laker fan.

[Sarge51]

I actually regret picking this name. I'm not a very original person, so I just stole off of Roosterteeth and Red vs Blue. Plus I loved Sarge back then.

I kind of wished my username was Manly McBeeferton. Which is also stolen from something. But it sounds so cool. :3

[Hashbrown Rocker]

I enjoy eating hashbrowns.:p

[Hungryfreak]

I am hungry. I am a freak. I am a Frank Zappa fan. "Hungry Freaks, Daddy" is a Frank Zappa song. The song is the first track on the album Freak Out! by said Frank Zappa.

[ffwarrior47]

Ummm, i was young and stupid.

FF = Final Fantasy
Warrior = Uhh, Warrior.
47 = Random Numbers.

i wish i could change my username.

[RestlessAndWild]

I am a huge Accept fan, and Restless And Wild is my favorite Accept Album.

S8tnteezy doesn't need a name...nuff' said.

But it doesn't say "UghRiles"

[Demyx-XIII]
