What's your handle?

[wut]

I tend to disagree, "what" is proper, and hence clean, while "wut" is used as slang and by lazy people, making it unclean.

But hey, it's your name and your mind think what you want

Yeah, and "j0k3r" isn't exactly grammatically correct either!

[j0k3r]

No, but purposefully so, you try getting the account 'Joker' anywhere.

[Crypticflare]

Untill the last two years, my handle was always concerning the word "Rebel"   Rebel_Forever2, Rebels[RC] (Back in the day) Hence I used the word rebel because our school mascot was the rebels, Anyhoo I wanted to start a nice gaming site devoted to console, pc, even real life kooky games, but I wanted a devoted name to go with it. I had the word Krypt for a month or so, then a friend suggested KrypticDream, I said what about CrypticDream, then he finally said Crypticflare. I said why the hell not, and its been like that since.

[ObsidianWolf]

Until about 2 Months ago my handle was Wolf or Obsidian, or in this case a junction of the two.   I know go by Bene or Benevolent as most in entropy refer to me.  In Team Chaos X I was Zev.

'wut' is even more ridiculous here, since we pronounce 'what' more like 'wot', so 'wut' just sounds like nonsense.

[Trance]

Hehe, crazy british accents.

Arta! If you're going to post making fun of his name, at least describe yours :-)

[MoNksBaNe_Agahnim]

well when i first got on bnet, when BW came out, my brother played a lot and his name was MoNk, thus to spite my brother I made mine MoNk's Bane. After finding it annoying when our clan got new members and everyone calling me MoNk instead Bane, since I'm not my brother lol, I decided to change it. I too have been a fan of arcane type magic such as wica, runes, ect... so I wanted a wizard type name. Thus Agahnim was born, Agahnim being the wizard in LTTP that breaks the wisemen's seal that unleashes Ganon, I am obsessed with Zelda. I then found that a lot of people knew me as MoNksBaNe and not Agahnim and vise versa, thus MoNksBaNe_Agahnim is created for forums and battle.net, although as a programming name I use Agahnim.

[MyndFyre]

By now I'm sure everybody knows where mine came from - Shakespeare's Othello.  Period.

iago was the evil machavellian backstabber, and I took on this name back when I used to backstab, and it just stuck.

On an unrelated note, my favorite Hollywood rendition of Othello is the one with Lawrence Fishburne and Kenneth Branagh (who played iago).  Branagh's best acting sequence was when he began the soliloquy, "I... hate... the moor...."  Strong emotion there.

Cheers  =)

Can't forget CRYPTIC-D]2AGON.

[Probe]

ive got my handle from a starcraft unit, i thought probes were pretty cool so i made the screen name Probe_. ive used it up untill i joined double x, now i use 2xX-Probe

[Archonist]

Hi, Probe!

Anyway, I've used Archonist for a while. I based it off of the Protoss unit 'Archon' but just added the 'ist' because I wanted something original and the same AIM screename and b.net name. (Don't ask me why)

Before I used Archonist, I used the name Juanto. I took that name from the movie Lethal Weapon 4. He was a drug lord type thing, You can see the movie if you wan't to know that bad.

Before I used Juanto, I used Serving. I traded for the name a long time ago and I used it in a few clans. I guess I just used it because I kind-of liked it.

[MyndFyre]

My original handle, DarkTemplar, spawned out of the fact that I liked the Protoss templar so much and when I was a young newb I didn't even know that in the single player SC that there were Dark Templar.  

I don't know where MyndFyre came from....  Don't ask.

[Mitosis]

I got my origonal name (Wing(x)) from watching anime. I liked the Gundam Wing series alot so I started to buy the models. Then when I got the internet I named my first account Wing(x). Then over the years its changed. But sticking with something you really like could give you cool ideas for names and such.

I was originally Artanis. At the time I thought of it I didn't realise I'd heard it while playing Starcraft. When I found out I thought well, that sucks. Not very original. People had started calling me Arta just as a nickname because it's shorter to type, and I liked it, so I swapped to that.
