My name is only about 5 months old or so. It started around the beginning of December when i first came to The Ville. I was in a lost of names and could not think of anything so i took my favorite band (Linkin Park) and instead of Park put Death so it was LinkinDeath. I had that and a few stupid others until early January when I thought to find a better ending to my name. I decided to keep Link and Death but what to fill it up with, I thought. A week later or so, I thought up of my current name LinktoDeath, since it has a nice ring to it. "Your friendly link to death"

Well mine was originally Rsnewt, which stands for Red Spotted Newt. You see I am biology geek and in college I was really in to herpetology, going to be a Vet, etc... Well Rsnewt just doesn't flow when you are running around killing people, so I decided to change it. Since I have owned 4 Ford Mustangs, I went with that theme. The '93 Cobra is my fav fox body stang(wish I had one) so I chose SVTCobra back when you couldn't have spaces in your name. When the patch came out that allowed spaces, I changed to SVT Cobra.

OSU=Ohio State University (where I go to school, gonna be a junior next year)
Snipe=Primary class, not so much anymore, but its my name, so who cares
Shocker=Given to me by a friend in one of my computer classes ages ago, when I shocked him almost everyday in class (static is fun) I use that name in nearly all video games I play, either Shocker or shox or somethin. Then, when I was just Shocker on TFC, I ran into another Shocker, so I just said F*** It, and changed my name.

A mean man

Take it literally, the meaning doesnt get any easier than that lol

...actually it was originally Aleanman as an alternate spelling for Alienman but people took that literally and A lean man sounds kinda retarded so i replaced the L with an M and it made sense and looks kinda cool.

Well my name comes from my grandpa and my pets. My grandpa's handel on his CB radio was CopyCat, and when I was awash in a sea of names, I descided to go with that one. Then I got my cats. They are both "Balanese" kitties and they look almost EXACTLY the same. They are kopies of one another That solidified my name. Its about a year old now(actually its about 6 months for TFC, but its the only name I use anywhere, so its really old). Thats the history of the KopiKat(my cats names are Koy and Kisa coincidentally, KK is their initials, same with mine )

-KK

Snaggletooth is a character in Star Wars, or rather the venacular for a fellow by the name of Zutton also known as Takeel. I just wanted to have a name from Star Wars that didn't jump out as an obvious homage to the best 3 films ever made, and those 2 other ones I guess.

some of my other names have included
eYe - got that from my roomate
Blue 10 - from playing TIE fighter and X-Wing
moron - cause noone likes getting killed by a moron.
Captain Poodle Pants - a muppet by the name of Mr. Poodle Pants was quite amusing to me. Captain sounded more appropriate for TFC.

Mr. Bojangles
Mack the Knife
Mr. Bojangles
The Grand PooPah
Mack da Knife
Juxtaposition

I got my current name from a Vocab test over "Romeo and Juliet" I was looking for a new name at that time and I just liked that one.

I thought it meant "to appear out of thin air," and snice I like scout, I can be there one miniute and gone the next.

It really means "Two things placed together that have signifigance" i think...

Although this card does not show it, at the bottom of the actual card it reads, "Noble in battle and generous in death - Motto of the Kjeldorian Royal Guard". Just something I try to live up to.

Well, there was a thread done some time ago about this and here is what I posted then.

You can read the other thread here : http://www.theville.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=65&highlight=name

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nicknames? You mean John Doe isnt my real name? I'm confused!
Actually when I started playing TFC I used the name CaptianHowdy, goes back to a song with these lyrics.


Oh, it's so nice to see you all inside my dreamy little world
And it's so nice to be with all you lovely little boys and girls
Make yourselves comfortable, my place is so devine
Don't you think I'm wonderful? Say yes! You're on my time

CHORUS:

Stay away
From Captain Howdy
Stay away
From Captain Howdy

Don't try to leave, the doors are locked and only I have got the key
Forget the windows, they're nailed shut and boarded up so you can't see
You'll love the light show, oh, I'm sure you'll think it's swell
When they go off, you're welcome to my living hell

REPEAT CHORUS

Solo - Eddie

Come here, my sweet
Let me help you with that
There, that's better

I'm overjoyed at all the games I'm playing here with you today
But I'm so sad the party's over and we can no longer play
You think you're going home to your own little bed
But that's impossible, you can't sleep when you're dead

REPEAT CHORUS (three times)

Of course if you know this song then your also a Twisted Sister fan and another SMF!


As I became a better player my friends and I often noticed all the dead corpses littering the ground during a game, we could never tell who they once were so we referred to them as John Doe's. I decided that since I usually was that corpse I had better change my name to John Doe. Now, as I improve my playing I find that I am creating more John Doe's than I am actually becoming.

Does that make any sense to you all? Should I just go back to Captain Howdy?

Mine comes from a book. I wanted a nick that nobody would have, so I choose an obscur character in a book. Moreover, Paddyjack was a mythic tree-like creature living in the forest, and since myself I like to live outdoors,fishing or simply to communicate with Nature, well I thought that name would fit well.

Good news was that I never saw someone playing wth that same nick in 3 years... Now that I thonk about it, maybe because it sounds ridiculous...

[FoX]KickinASCII wrote:
My original name was "KickinAss," but I used to play on "Maelstrom's Brewpub," and the first time I played, Maelstrom himself was in there, and we got in an argument over "language" in my name, so he banned me for an hour for arguing with an admin. I went to my best friend David and asked him what I should make my name, and he came up with KickinASCII, and when I came back, Maelstrom said he was pretty impressed with the replacement name.... "ASCII." (This was 3 years ago).

It angers me greatly that there is a FoxBot called KickinASCII. Some people have said "No, I bet you copied the FoxBot name." Well, I created the [FoX] tag after my Dad hit a fox driving down the interstate three years ago, and as far as I know, FoxBot wasn't even around back then. If it was, I didn't even know about it. I wonder if one of the original creators played on a server with me and copied it! Oh well, I'm not going to make a big deal out of it.


Or the foxbot was based on you and that's why it kills me so much...

Just wanted something original that nobody would ever consider using. It started as a joke at work, my co-worker played TFC as well and we were just trying to come up with outragous original names and this was the better of the 2 that I came up with. The other was Red Swollen Dog P...., you can figure it out. That one wasn't really appropriate for a server such as this one so Bright Red Nipples was it. I've had this name for about 3 or 3 1/2 years.
