When you ask some one how they got there name there generally is a story behind it. Why not tell us how you got or picked you name.
And I want to say thank you to everyone who's shared there story. It really is interesting to see how everyone got there moniker or call sign.
Btw you guys are like posting once every minute or two.

Ferothen is the name of my new main toon on World of Warcraft as of this year. After playing a tank for so long I just required a change of pace, so I decided to try assuming a more dps role. The Hunter was my natural choice, and like most of the RP population on my server, I went Blood Elf. I started looking into what made a proper blood elf's name. What kind of generators they had online? What sorts of words were actually defined loosely according to lore? 'Fero' stuck out to me, because as a Hunter, you'd expected to use a bow alot. 'Fero' was defined as the Sin'dorei word for "Fire." It brought me back to this old book I used to read early on in High School called Fire Arrow. So I took that for a start. I added the "Then" on the end, cause it sounded pretty Tolkien in influence, and rounded it out pretty well on the tongue for anyone to pronounce. Normally there'd be an apostrophe to seperate it. Fero'then. Since then, my experience changing classes has brought me at my peak in raiding on the PC, and I'm hoping it'll take me far in raiding in Destiny's endgame, if I can find a solid group, or if I'm lucky enough to assemble and lead my own raid down there. And yes.. you can expect me to play a Hunter there too. :P

When playing an older version of rainbow six on a pc lan party I liked to throw grenades. My friends gave me the nickname of boomer. Then we were on the last map with only one terrorist left to kill. We found the building he was in. We thought it would be a good idea to throw a grenade into the room. So I threw it and it bounced around the door frame came back out of the building and killed us all. Then came the nickname great boomer.

Edited by YOULOST2ME: 9/6/2014 7:43:19 PMSome amusing banter to pass the time and get to know others. I'm all for it! I'm inevitable. I don't quit. Everyday I sit and wait and contemplate each headshot. Each melee. As destiny nears my blood boils. I feel like a caged animal starved for weeks, anticipating the the first kill when I'm released into the wild. My PSN is Youlost2me. The people I defeat always remember my name. There are variants but I am the original. I'm inevitable. I don't quit. You can find me on all systems by this name but for Destiny I'll be on PS4. I used to be the lone wolf that would purposely play against clans with random people to take out or embarrass the clan/ clan leader and defeat the clan. That was my challenge to myself. Didn't work out all the time but clans that didn't not have it together suffered because I'm inevitable. I don't quit. I learned that communication and keeping it together when things were going downhill helped to gain victory over certain teams. You would find me in Gears of War. Halo 3, battlefield 4, COD, mortal Kombat, street fighter, Titanfall and similar games. People play harder to avoid seeing my name pop up and for good reason. However I'm inevitable. I don't quit. I'm the kind of player that will hunt you down the whole match and kill you multiple times. Just because you are on the top of the leaderboard. Beating the best is my motivation. Don't slip up. Don't ever let down your guard. Cause I'll be there. Know your losses came from me. I love a challenge and don't mind losing cause it makes me better. My competition is myself so technically I can't lose. I'm inevitable. I don't fuss or rage. I just take it out on my enemies in the next round. I'm a good listener and team player was in the Army for a bit so I know how to take orders and want to be the best. I chose my PSN as a taunt to my competition as well as a motivation to myself, cause when I lose most gamers are quick to throw my PSN in my face. lol. So I take any game I commit myself to seriously...I intend to win. So if you are like minded and want to embarrass the so called "elite" clans in pvp. Friend me. I will be a human Titan, for me this is Sparta. I'm inevitable. I don't quit. I will NOT lose. (I'll try not to anyway. Lol) See you 9/9.

Slanky is short for SlankyDopeNinja, which one of my friends bestowed upon me while watching me play one of the last levels in Halo 2. The level is where you are battling endless waves of elites while trying to take down the prophet by boarding him and punching him in the face. I always rolled that level with a Sword/Shotgun combo and the Elites took two powerful hits to take down on legendary, or a full clip or two with the assault rifle. If you lunged with the sword then immediately pulled out the shotgun, and blasted them in the face, it was a two hit kill. Also, I'm really tall and lanky, so the name kinda fit for that reason as well, and it just stuck. Inevitably it was shortened to just Slanky because the rest is a bit ridiculous.
