Where did you get your name?

[Nato]

Where did you get your GAMER (Gaming name) from?

Mine is just my irl nickname so i'm chillin

 

[Crowe]

hold your hats cause you’re in for a doozy! i named my baseball card “crowe” because it had a tear in it that resembled a bird. i added an e at the end because that was my favorite letter at the time. there was a hurricane in 2009 that flooded my house and my beloved baseball card. i bought MKW that following year and decided to name myself after my drenched and dismembered baseball card and i haven’t looked back since

 

[Blaze]

hold your hats cause you’re in for a doozy!

i was 11 and thought the name blaze was cool. i thought 18 rhymed with blaze (it doesnt) but the name blaze18 on mkw was taken so we went with blaze118

 

[Athaway]

It's literally my name

 

[TheKoopaGuy]

Mine is actually pretty odd since I was (and still am tbh) a weird kid

I used to watch PeanutButterGamer on his second channel where he played Minecraft Hardcore. His in-game name was PBG and I wanted my name to be an acronym since I liked how PBG sounded so I tried to come up with something on my own.

I decided to base it around Koopa since I liked turtles and green was my favourite colour. I didn't want to use "gamer" as a part of my name since even at 12 I thought that would be kinda cringe, so I came up with Guy instead. Lastly was finding a third word to make the full 3-letter acronym and I decided on TheKoopaGuy.

I came up with TheKoopaGuy or TKG at 12 and I haven't changed it since. My plan was actually to go by my real name in the MK community (which is Lucas, if you didn't know), but I remembered that I had registered to mkboards as TheKoopaGuy so I started going by Koopa.

 

[Samuel]

I was given this name by my parents.

 

[Cynthia.]

pokémon

 

[Lunar]

Too many nicknames probably it's just schizophrenia

 

[Dylan 718]

Was born with it

 

[The Zip]

I came up with my original one "Zipper" when I got into time trialing the Mario Kart Series. My new one Lunar (full name Lunar Traveler) is relating to the time trials too.

 

[Alessioilrebest]

My name (Alepardo or Pardo, not this meme forum name lmao) came from an union between two nicknames (Ale by my name and Pardo by my surname)

 

[Max-potion]

It was an inside joke with friends on Final Fantasy XIV.

 

[Jazzy]

describes my music

 

[Jazzy]

Was born with it

was 718 part of your SSN then?

 

[greg.]

g for greg s does NOT stand for Samuel as opposed to popular belief and I thought the city corinth sounded cool without knowing anything about its history. I thought the 7 looked cool too.

 

[Shaiman]

So when i was younger and my mom and dad were still together, my dad gave me the nickname Shyman. I never knew it was spelled this way since i tought it was a way just to give me a nickname that was easier to pronounce, rather than calling me a person who was shy. So thats why its Shaiman, rather than Shyman. My irl friends call me this too.

Eventhough i carry this nickname for over 19 years now i might consider changing it to just Shai since that is the name my mom gave me (which actually raised me unlike my dad)

 

[daisukeNL]

Couple of years ago one of my best friends started calling me "Thijsuke" (Thijs being my irl name). After some time I decided to ask why he was calling me that. Turns out he was watching anime and the protagonist was called Daisuke, and he thought it sounded like Thijsuke. Before that I had gone through a couple of nicknames like Thijs1403 and Elaxus. I wanted a new nickname at the time and this was perfect.

 

[Nino.]

Nintendo + Lino = Nino

 

[Nyx.]

[Vantox]
