Registered 13 years agoMine (Meho PPPi) is a combination of three things.
1. Meho was my nickname in school.
2. PPP is what I always put into high score tables which only allow 3 characters. It actually started on Daytona on the Saturn. I just loved the just saying it after it was entered.
3. The i on the end was a typo. It was supposed to me Meho PPP

Registered 15 years agoAs long as it isn't XXtehawesomesniper453xXX or some ridiculous muddle of words and numbers. Just pick something you like the sound of. -

Registered 11 years agoI got mine (same as this username but with a space) from an old PS1 magazine review of G-Police. It was saying how it was quite a cool sounding name, compared to the other possibilities, "Space Pigs or Cosmic Fuzz" and it just stuck. -

Fabricatedlunatic will no doubt agree with you there...

I'm slightly worried about cosmic now (tangogoldenshowerstab4...) -

That'll annoy me now. I'll see your gamertag and thing "WHAT ARE YOU DOING THERE i! YOU'RE UNWANTED!". It also sounds like Pee Pee Pie, which is what I thought you were going for.
I'd generally avoid anything with shit on wither side, like xoxx Common Name xxox. If you stick random characters at either side, that just tells me you're so unimaginative you couldn't think of anything someone else hadn't got to first.
Not that mine isn't unimaginative, it's just a characters name from a TV show. But it's a character name without lots of fluff at either side. The more fluff you have, the more retarded you are. That's fact, my friend. -

Are you looking down on my sexual preferences and tanning salon addiction?! -

Registered 9 years agoMine is RickgDavies. It's an extremely witty pun and play on words that transends usual comedy and is something only the gods would understand. Also by complete coincidence the letters used to make my Gamertag joke spell out my name. -

Registered 9 years agoMy old Gamertag was "SaddamCrusade", alongside a picture of a bloke who resembled Saddam Hussein. Very silly, but I loved it because i'd receive so much abuse from jingoistic Americans. Also, because they'd hunt me out in games i'd usually rack up a fair number of kills. -

Registered 8 years agoI had a short list of really pretentious Lovecraftian names so it could have been a lot worse.
I chose this because it sounds a bit Gibsonesque like an incidental character from one of the Bridge novels. So not pretentious at all.
One dee. Long oh. -

Registered 14 years agoMine actually came up as a suggestion, and the absurdity of it made me smile. Since I couldn't think of anything better I decided to stick with it. -

I like it though. It's like you're not just regular Meho PPP, you're Meho PPP with fuel injection! -
