What's to a name? (Why did you chose your name?)

[Kylix]

Kylix, its an ancient Greek drinking cup...  need i say more? cheers!

 

[Etat]

All the names I use (nation, leader, cities) are sourced from the field I work in.  There is no particular rhyme or reason behind any of them, rather a product of whimsy.

 

[TigerFire]

unlike everyone else, I don’t have a story ...my name is my actual name lol

Maybe I’ll change it some day 

 

[Wojtek Thorn]

Wojtek is bear that fought for Poland is WW2.(Search him up, amazing story)

Thorn was a finnish soldier that lived to kill commies.(You can see that I am not a communist doc)

Firstly on the side of Finland, then Germany and he died in the Vietnam war.

 

[Fatih]

I know both of them, one is a bear all the way from Iran and served for the polish army and the latter is ww2 vets and died on Vietnam. Definitely you're not communist... Great story

 

[Fatih]

Well, the story is Fatih means conqueror in Turkish and victory in Arabic... Also Mehmed II of the Ottomans used this name after the conquest of Constantinople.

Other than that it's generic lol

 

[Bear]

The story behind my name is pretty much I'm lazy

 

[Fanag]

My name on Warcraft 3 in 2003 was Chaos_Tauren because I thought Chaos orcs were cool and the chaos corrupted tauren would be cool. When a clan was made, I just joined another and I wanted in with some friends, but you cannot leave a clan within a week of joining so I made a new acc to temporarily join and I like birds so I just added hawk at the end of chaos and I've used it since then.

 

[Squeegee]

My freshman year of highschool I had an art teacher who used the word "squeegee" during a lesson about ceramics and it made me laugh. From that point on I started using Squeegee as my username in pretty much everything.

 

[Clint Carmel]

Carmel comes from Carmel-by-the-Sea, a little town in California that no one has ever heard of.  

 

[RagnarBuliwyf]

Commander Ragnar Blackmane/Thunderfist originally but then I realised it's far too long and 40k centric.  I've always loved history and have several items behind me that I've wrote regarding Viking Age artefacts. I thought I'd combine two of histories greatest figures into one name. 

Ragnar = Ragnar Loðbrók

Buliwyf = Beowulf and or King Buliwyf from 13th warrior

I must admit, I don't use it much outside of PW however. Everyone just calls me my irl name, "Hamish" so I go by Hamish the Viking in general.
