I've seen strange in-game names around. From really nice & cool ones, superheroes, ordinary to explicit names.

Me, Kings/Leaders have always fascinated me (Good & bad ways). Perhaps "Civilization" game has also influenced me (One of my favorite games to play), wherein I either use King Mark or President Mark as my name LOL!

I'm sure you guys have some good, funny or weird explanation to your names. So what's your story behind your in-game/forum names in CC?

A couple of months ago I was going in for my court-ordered 30 days of Jail/Re-Hab, and as I was checking in all the stuff in my pockets-when I saw my phone I imagined all the hay that would be made out of my hood and thought;

Why didn't I send in a ticket and change my name to "Player Is Too Beat Up!!!"?

Wouldn't that be cool to see in your "Rivals" list?

Sunsets
01-03-2013, 10:32 PM
My name is Sunsets because I've literally been obsessed with them since I was a kid.

I remember just sitting outside and watching the gorgeous sunset behind the mountains growing up. I remember walking the beach beneath the sunset, enjoying the company of good friends. I remember playing the very first love song that I ever wrote on guitar to the girl of my dreams - underneath that exact same sunset.

So when it comes to my obsession with sunsets, I guess you could say that I honestly do love them - both for their natural beauty, and for the beautiful memories that they bring back to me.

Chuck Nuts
01-04-2013, 12:19 AM
My game name and forum name are both Chuck Nuts. My 2yr old daughter cannot remember how to say chipmunk or squirrel, but for some reason she started calling them "chucknuts" whenever she sees one because she remembers that they eat nuts.

This is super thread & i have to say that Cc forum is diferent from all other gree forums.

What is so hard for all of you to write what it stand for your ingame initials, name and why you choose it?
In this way you can learn something about the people with whom you are every day here in correspondence.

Edit :i give this thread 5 star rating!!

TheLastResort
01-04-2013, 04:19 AM
My in-game name is AppleMacGuy cos I've always been an Apple Mac Guy :p

My forum name used to also be AppleMacGuy until I got a perm ban due to a gross over-reaction by the admins (well documented elsewhere) and despite months of trying they won't unban me, so I quit buying gold over 3 months ago now...but Gree really don't give a fig :mad:

Eventually TheLastResort was born...I will rarely post now though...I think the new name is self-explantory :(

Ramshutu
01-04-2013, 05:39 AM
Way back in around 1999, I started a game called Everquest with a Half elf ranger Character, called Ramshu on my sisters account.

After a while, I got my own account, and started three new characters. Ramshutu (get it!), Snuggles the Troll with a heart of Gold, and a bum like a barell of lard; and Gumberry the female gnome rogue, who generally dressed like a scene from fifty shades of Gray. Intentionally so, as when the lonely men stole glances, the rogue would steal their wallet.

Ramshutu Rakshasa (the second name chosen out of homage to one of the alien ships in Freespace 2), ended up being one of the better rangers on the server (asside from living on US time for 2 years, and spending $14.99 a month, no cash was invested).

Unfortunatley, I have no pictures, but I looked pretty much like this:

http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/0/1992/1449106-rangerepic_g.jpg

But, with the colorscheme of this:
http://disseminatedthought.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/bananaman.jpg

The color scheme was chosen to detract away from the really ultra stupid hat that I had to wear because it has awesome stats, and let you see in the dark.

All in all, there low point was having to kill a giant to give his head to a dragon, then killing the dragon to give is head to a giant. In order for either side to like you enough, you had to kill 1034541230 of the opposing side. The high point was running around one of the maps with 123512301 of the creatures chasing after you, and see the noobs look at you in awe as you destroyed them all by yourself.

Unfortunatley, I cannot find any pictures, as this was at the very least 4 PC's ago, although I may have some pictures on a dusty hard-drive in a caddy somewhere.

I sold the character for $800 many years ago. And quit partly because 3 hours of sleep a night was getting a bit old, and mostly because most of what you did in game was either staring at a wall or a lizards butt all day, or sitting here and killing one mushroom every 10 minutes for 11 hours a day.

So, I quit; however I am still friends with a lot of people I used to play with (mainly as one of them owns a private island, and one owns a pub). And as I spent a significant period with more people knowing the name "Ramshutu" than my real name, I decided to stick with it.

Nicky the Nose
01-04-2013, 07:10 AM
I chose my name because it's my name. I added Nicky to it to seem more like a mafia name, Nicky just sounds so like a mafia name and it's a tribute to the Joe Pesci character in Casino

Deluxe
01-04-2013, 07:19 AM
My name is C____ Mc_____ so i was often called 'C-Mac'. This adapted into 'C-Mac-age the Deluxe Package' and was later simplified to just Deluxe. It has a nice ring to it. I mean, who doesnt want the quarter pounder DELUXE...or really just the Deluxe version of anything..? So pretty much i represent the deluxe package for being a human being...

marshmall
01-04-2013, 08:26 AM
Well in my earlier life i was this guy

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stay_Puft_Marshmallow_Man

Nah just jokin.... but i have had that nick all since i saw the movie 1984.
And Marshmall is just short fort Marshmallow Man.

As of the movie i felt thats my guy ;)

Dan Aykroyd's character (Ray Stantz) instead makes the decision to think of this marshmallow mascot when the Ghostbusters are given a choice as to which physical form Gozer will conquer the world in. As he explains, "It just popped in there", and that he "tried to think of the most harmless thing", describing Mr. Stay Puft as "something that could never possibly destroy us". Moments later a giant Stay Puft Marshmallow Man is seen walking towards the apartment building. The Ghostbusters shoot at Stay Puft with their proton packs, setting him on fire, but do not succeed in stopping his advance.

I know, I just said I'm humble then bragged about being a badass. Deal with it! :)

After Kramer's 1st name was reveled as Cosmo, I was quickly dubbed Cosmo by those in the know. On top of that, Cosmo Brown is one of the best cinematic characters ever.

On the forum, some poser already took the name cosmo, so to clear things up "the real cosmo" was born.
