Where does your username come from? Options

[Rhiannon]

Rhiannon is from Welsh mythology. I thought it sounded nice, so I used it.

[Dr Strum]

When I first went onto the intarweb and made a user name, it was "Sturm" after the Advance Wars character. Eventually, I started using "Dark Sturm", but one place I went to said that was too long so I shortened it to "Drk Sturm" but some people missed my intentions and began calling me "Dr K". So I took out the 'k' and went with "Dr Sturm."

[Leyviur]

I messed with my last name and came up with this.

[chrishawke]

chrishawke is the first half of my name plus the character "Hawke" off from Advance Wars 2.

[fensti]

fensti is a nickname from school, a shortened form of my last name.

[Swifty-chan]

Swifty is actually shortened version of my pseudonym ('Shayla Swiftfire'). The whole Swiftfire thingy is actually from my brother's incomplete novel.

... I don't have to explain '-chan', do I?

Very long story. Sit down little boys and girls and let us begin the tale.

A long time ago, I was playing a game called Graal Online, on the only Gold Server at that time. I joined a RPing guild, but they wanted me to change my name from Ness_Master, a name I was using alot at the time, to something more...RPish. Ness_Master didnt cut it! So I thought, and I came up with Arbanonus Overhill, but later on I changed it to what it's today known as Abaronus Overhill. Abaronus has no meaning, and Overhill is the opposite of Underhill, a name Frodo used in The Lord of the Rings, and what Bilbo used too in The Hobbit. I was into that stuff at the time.

A while later, I played a game called Phantasy Star Online. Abaronus was already a character on there, and I was wanting a new character name, just in case something happened. This is when I came up with Elnendil Taramon, a elvish name, meaning "Star-Water-Devotion High-Hill". Well, probably not completely the right definition, but I made it myself using rough Elvish I found (Which denies that I thought of just putting a damn n in Elendil, though when I found out about Elendil, since I'm a pretty fast reader, I kinda freaked.). I used it for a while, but I gave him a storyline, a look, an attitude. He's the main character of a story i've been writing, Alblabe.

Anyways, that's it, now go and eat dinner.

[Raijinili]

I don't know.

Wait, no, I already explained this name in my name's intro.

[Chardes]

Messed up the word "Crashed." And somehow, it just sounds like Charade. TT____TT

[Swifty-chan]

Lol, I always thought Sturm's name is from the Dragon Lance book series ^^'

And no wonder Elnendil's name sounds so... elvish.

[Swiyth]

i sort of knew Elnendil was an elf name...

well, my name was made up. along with Ragorne. i was called Raggie at the time by people i knew :\

then Swiyth, Ilurayne, Aremes and a whole bunch of names i forgot.

[Liger]

Liger=Big Lion/Tiger thingy. They're cute. Really, it used to be SilverLiger, but I'm lazy and if I can get away with writing something shorter, then I do XD

Originally SilverLiger was a favorite color + a favorite animal (Yes ligers are real dammitz)

[Dr Strum]

A liger is a cat that has a lion for a father and a tiger for a mother.
A Tigon is the opposite (female lion x male tiger)
