Why..... Your username?

willjames · 07-04-2016, 04:07 PM

Mine is my sons first and middle name...have the same handle on PSN ID and had since day 1 on PS3.

Real name is Scott.

Edinburra · 07-04-2016, 04:11 PM

Because I live in the City and that's how it's pronounced.

Chompers · 07-04-2016, 04:24 PM

Mine is my son's nickname, had and still has a huge appetite from the day he was born.

Real name is Paul

My name is Virgil and everyone calls me Virge and thought my username was funny back in the day on the 306 gti6 forum and this has stuck since....

Y2AJ · 07-04-2016, 05:26 PM

My gaming handle since my PS1. Still my gaming handle but on every single modern gaming console known to man! Plus my initials are AJ and it's also my nickname.

It's from a newspaper strip cartoon by Bud Neil, that ran in Glasgow until the 60s.
Lobey Dosser was the Glaswegian Sheriff of the Wild West town of Calton Creek. On other forums, I'm different characters from the same strip, like Rank Bajin (evil deeds done, dirt cheap), Rid Skwerr (a Russian Spy) or G.I. Bride.

DaveH28 · 07-04-2016, 07:34 PM

Because I'm unimaginative and my name is Dave holt and I was 28 when I first started usernames....nearly 39 now..not my finest moment

Sniper101 · 07-04-2016, 08:56 PM

Im sniper101 because it will only take one shot

Yeatser · 07-04-2016, 11:37 PM

It was my nickname at school, just an extension of my surname.

subsy · 07-05-2016, 12:50 AM

It's a variation of the name I've used to release music over the years

4WDriver · 07-05-2016, 03:56 AM

Honest, anonymous & simple like me I s'pose.

Flyboy-fil · 07-05-2016, 10:29 AM

RobUK · 07-05-2016, 10:35 AM

I'm starting to think I should change my user name to beershag.

Jamin320 · 07-05-2016, 02:03 PM

My name is Ben but for some bizarre reason my mates prefer to use the latter part of my full christian name. I also wanted to highlight which car I drive as it's such a rare model on here!

x DR Vodka x · 07-06-2016, 06:45 AM

I've had this since the old AOL dial up (remember the chat rooms

) Also its been my Xbox live name since it started ( although i dont play as much these days ) and used it for most forums ....

siross · 07-06-2016, 06:57 AM

It's an abbreviation of my name and what a few people call me as a nickname

dangerous_al · 07-07-2016, 05:31 PM

Because Alan was taken and I couldn't think of anything else. It was a nickname given to me on my first skiing trip when I was a danger to myself and everyone else on the mountain
