I was thinking a name for myself. Then my eyes contacted with the word Duck, and I was like yep. Thats my name. then later I added ‘‘The’’ to the beginnning.
Mine is based around when I first entered the online world and my favorite book series at the time was Artemis Fowl. Only later did I understand the possible poultry loving meaning.

I am a robot that was programmed to kill but never programmed to love.
A Tauren Druid for which this name was auto suggested.
wkstrm is my lastname but without vowels. It would probably make more sense if you knew Swedish. But for most people it seem to be just a bunch of randomly put-togheter consonants.
I was always Kayleigh online but it was often already taken as a user name so I came up with an alternative spelling that is less often used… tacked on the 13 just to ensure a variant.
I had a joke account on LoL with a variation of Jesus, and some people say some really funny stuff. I’ve had so many strange experiences because of the name so I just stuck with it. One example while playing Rust, I had somebody run over and yell “Jesus bless me with your holy rock” I hit him on the head, he says thank you and then ran off…
It’s just too good not to
I always liked tigers and I wanted to come up with a name that was unique enough that it would not be taken everywhere I go, so I came up with the variation.
That’s hilarious! Maybe in Kingdom Come, people can ask you to bless them with your sword!
I had a short story in middle school about a dragon slayer named Garth. Basically mashed “Garth” and “dragon” together for my first online RPG game to come up with Dragarth. Unfortunately, I googled the name a couple years ago and the Neopets garbage apparently snatched it up in 2004 I believe and made it their own. It’s been my name for over 11 years…
My nick is actually a translation of my first name into Japanese. However Yuusou also means “post” (or postal service), so I had some funny occasion while playing Uncharted Waters Online (a sailing MMO based in the age of naval exploration) and steering a transport ship, someone started laughing and asked me if I knew what my name meant. I said that it’s my first name translated into Japanese and he said “I know this word as post. It’s so appropriate.” So this is how I got to know that one japanese word can have two very different meanings. Still I stick with my original intention of translating my first name.
Since Yuusou is a rather common name used in online communities, I had to add something. Usually I’d go with the last two digits of the year of my birthday, but sooner or I later I realized that I could make some pun out of it and so YuusouAmazing was created, as amazing is one of the overused terms of describing something beautiful or extraordinary. I was also about to use YuusouUsual but it looks a bit awkward.
Hajime mashite, Ragnar desu. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu.
Ragnar, after a character from the historical novel “The Last Kingdom” by Bernard Cornwell.
Concidentally a similar character, Ragnar Lothbrok, appears in the history series “Vikings”.
Then again, a lot of Norsemen where named Ragnar, after Ragnarök (for which I long).
It also contains many characters of my first and family name, and I like the sound of it.
I’m a big fan of the nine… I mean eight, aedra from The Elder Scrolls.
Ambrose is my last name. John is a name I chose from the muster rolls of the Hundred Years War. John Ambrose was one of a few of his name to go to war as a longbowman.

Nickname, what nickname? lol
Alright normally people tend to think I’m Hungarian. Some sort of translation for bird tamers if I remember correctly. I first stumbled upon it in one of my past favorite PS2 games. Disgaea Hour of Darkness. I’ve used it ever since. There is another name I go by, but that one is unfortunately used more often than I’d expect.
Im a geek… Curunir is the best name ever, taken from Silmarillion. I also use Aussat, another book name from the Thomas Covenant books by Stephen R. Donaldson. Its the name of a small troll and the name (Aussat Befylam) mean little freak or something, Im 198 so I found it rather fitting =)

Xaero comes from my days of playing Quake 3 Arena, and kept it all this years… in more recent years, felt that I, trough various acts of courage and bravery, deserved to be Knighted… so, Lord Xaero !
Well first Sir, for my love of medieval, and then Rod as in Röd as in Red in swedish. I’m a ginger warrior!
No real meaning here, heard the word a long time ago from a friend and used it ever since.
A long time ago in a tabletop RPG far far away my friends and I created nations of our own from the ruins of a once great empire that we had brought low. Most of the names were pretty much mockeries of other empires and mine was no different… I decided that since my name is Olli and this was MY empire I’d be ruled by an… Olligarchy.
