Worms is so much fun. You guys just reminded me of all the times i used to play with my friend on his Xbox. Holy hand grenades anyone?

Rather boringly my forum name is actually my name... well its not the name on my passport but its the nickname i've had since i was a toddler.. what my mum calls me, the name i'm published under etc etc... to the point where facebook accepts it as 'my name'.

Unimaginative eh?

Still, it's cool that your nickname is basically your name.

The only people who really call me by my christian name at birth are people who meet me in situations like bank interviews.

To everyone else i'm gadge is they know me, Mr Harvey if they don't and in a few other jobs in the past 'sir' or by my rank

Like i say, my mum calls me Gadge! Thats where it all started.

i did have a phase a few years back of asking very close friends to call me by my christian name as I was really well known on certain music and festival scenes and i was getting a bit sick of my name (as in Gadge being attributed to a lot of stuff i simply hadnt done, been involved in or wanted to be associated with.. scene politics and all that) but it never really stuck. They were all far too used to calling my Gadge.

Like if you read the synopsis of this back issue of my magazine i'm assistant editor on you can see that my articles come under 'Gadge Harvey' as my writing credits.

At some point i should just get my name legally changed but there seems little point tbh as its so rare i get called by my christian name.

edit: helps if i actually link to a back issue...

Thought I was putting in Scorch's number from Republic Commando. Turns out it's 1 2 62, even though Boss is 1138. Because reasons.

I'm terrible naming things. It's actually so bad at times half of my character creation time isn't on faces, it's the **** name.

It took me an hour to come up with a new Dunmer in Skyrim, and I cheated and used a name generator. Want to know how long it took for inci? Hour and a half and a randomizer because Incinerator was taken.

I ever make the mistake of breeding, someone else can do the naming. Now I came up with a new name like Kyranthesis and Volsilaag, but it's like sacrificing infants and trying not to roll 1s.

Star Wars names are easy to generate. I've found food/dishes from the local Indian restaurant sound oddly star wars, as so the odd medication names.

For example Keema Naan, rebel pilot

Saag Aloo, Jedi

Rogan Josh, Bounty Hunter

edit: in the old RPG i had a rebel called 'Dak Tarin' which is an anti fungal cream i think

My first name is Dan, but the word Doulogos was a name I created back in 2005 for my current blog. Its a hash of two Koiné Greek words, Doulos ( δοῦλος) and Logos ( λόγος ). Had my understanding of Greek compound words been a little more developed at the time, I would have correctly combined the words to form the properly formed compound "Dou lo logos" - but I didn't realize that until after I had been using the name for a while. People in the know assumed I was being "clever" but very few people reading an English blog are in the know when it comes to Koiné Greek.

Either way, I have used Doulogos now for a dozen years or so, and because it is an .... innovative ?... spelling, it makes it much easier to find me on the internet - and I've come to like it.

Name of an ork "fighta ace" from 40k. Read his issue of white dwarf in may 2012 when I was just starting and picked it as my name for everything ever since

Had Honsou not become the half-breed mini Abaddon of the Iron Warriors, I probably would have done the same thing.

Mine comes from a fighter I made in Gal Cil II. I used it on the Stardock forums and have used it ever since.

Was an old Warcraft shadowpriest I used to play.

Oh, and here I thought it was all about cheap gas station art.

I first used this for a vampire in Madrid in a Vampire: The masquerade game i was the DM.

Shortly i decided it was way cooler than my usual nickname for the interwebs, and adopted it.

In spanish is a quite old world for defining a mean person. But i'm very nice

I just think it sounds cool in spanish. Literally is badshadow in english.

Back in the Republic days I used to try and wield my force ability to beat out all my friends. One time Jedi Master Obi-Wan came by to watch us train at the Jedi Temple and I knew it was my chance to shine. During an exercise with another padawan I used all my ability to knock my opponent down with a force blast.

I failed, missed my challenger and hit Obi-Wan.

He stood in shock and said "Young padawan maybe one day you will learn to wield that fist full of force."

Back then all my friends decided to call me that, I hated it. Not soon after I left to go visit home, that's when the temple was destroyed. The name is now a badge of Honor. I'm not sure what to do now although I keep hearing about this group of people that come from all over joining together to fight.

I think I may join this group "The Rebel Alliance" or something if I can find them.

Got to go and get out of here Imperials are searching people looking for sympathizers.

May the force be with you.

My username...Well, I write a series of detective short stories based on Coruscant. Kyten Nitekrest is a slightly corrupt Empire loving Twi'lek ****ing Hardcore homicide Detective. Former Stormtrooper who had half his face blown off in a rebel raid. He spends his free time searching for those rebel scum!

And now I want to read these.

As for the username, I just always used my name online. I mean, if my parents were cool enough to give me a nice science-y name why not use it?

I tried just regular Kelvin but it was taken, so I put a "One" in front; firstly because it's kind of like saying "The genuine first, real, and one-of-a-kind Kelvin as opposed to all those fake Kelvins who are just doing it to be cool.", and secondly because when using Kelvin as a temperature there are no degrees. For example, if I said that it's "one Kelvin outside" that would be correct from a grammatical standpoint.

(It would be strange that the outside area was for some reason 1.7 K colder than the empty vacuum of space itself, but the grammar holds nonetheless.)

Well see, there's always a story...

My name is Tom. And 1132 is the first random combination of letters that came to mind.

*leans back in chair proudly*

My name is Joe. I usually post in one of the star wars forums. I figured i'd stick something starwarsy to my name.

Darius = My name for a Space Marine Captain 20+ Years ago. APB = My initials.

Awwwwww. Shucks.

Well, someone has to do some Noir now.

"The Dame was green, real green. I hadn't seen a girl that green since before the war, but then again I never got out much. She had an envelope for me, said it was important; a matter of life and death. I told the blinds to shut and slid the holo-recorder out onto my desk. It was small, a cheap tinnium thing that had clearly seen better days.

I set it flat on the blotter and played the last recorded message.

From what I could tell, between the flickering and the static, a young boy had gone missing. The woman in the hologram said she was his mother; that he had gotten in deep with this Defel thug staying at the spaceport. Seems the Def was recruiting for some rebels near Onderon and spun a few stories of heroics and adventure. The kid had bitten; hook, line, everything. If I didn't find him soon he was set for a life on the run, outside the protection of the Empire.

I didn't yet know how the Dame figured into all of this: maybe she was a girlfriend, a big sister type. Didn't like not knowing my employer, but her credits were good. I slid her chip, and waited till door shut behind her before I pulled my blaster out of the drawer. I checked the gas level, lowered the lights, picked up my hat - and was out in the rain before the service droid could wish me "Safe Journeys"."

"Oh, and I was a chainsmoker who drank a lot and didn't own a razor worth a soggy credit. Make sure you get that in there too."
