    Real name is "Kenneth"

    Favorite game is "Chrono" Trigger

    I love the aspect of time "Kronos/Cronus"

    Khronus is a merge of these three things and has stuck with me for 16 years.

    Daveygravy the chef
    Daveynavy the sailor
    Daveycavey the Tulnar
    Daveyshavey the beardless Dwarf
    Daveyslavey who is just used to hold your other characters’ extra gear

    Does that look right?

    I just created an account with this name one day, and it sticked.

    Two brothers both playing together and wanted to make names that made it obvious we were a "duo". Thus Glory and Honor were born.

    Wouldn't the sailor be Wavydavey? :)

    Don't forget...
    Daveyknavey the Rogue
    Daveybravey the Tank

    As for the original topic, my handle "LieutenantToast" came from a friend who once said this random phrase many years ago when we were playing together in PristonTale. Somehow it's survived twenty-ish years, even in all its ridiculousness!

    Though typically if I'm creating a character in-game, I try to be a bit more lore-friendly with my name ;)

  • DargronDargron Member, Founder, Kickstarter, Alpha Two, Early Alpha Two
    Signed up to a Warhammer forum. Wanted "Dragon", but figured something so obvious would be taken. My main army was Dwarfs, so I swapped some letters around to get "Dargon", which seemed like a good Dwarfy name.

    Then Warhammer Online came around and it was just the incentive I needed to finally take the plunge into the world of MMO's, but my name was already taken, so I threw in another R and ended up with "Dargron", which has stuck for every MMO since.

    Forum name is totally going to be my Dünir wizard.

    otherwise it's Cowboyshark or "shark but also a cowboy" or any variation of that. As for it's origin I just really like the scene in toy story where the Shark has Woody's hat and is like "Look! I'm Woody! Howdy, howdy howdy!".
  • chiefbirdchiefbird Member, Alpha Two
    My MMO name has been influenced by a champion in LoL, their lore fits best in what I play which is a fighter

    I am terrible about choosing names, my name I go by is Subs, I am a 20-year retired Navy submariner. it kind of stuck for 15 or more years now. I wish I was more creative, but it is an easy name for group invites :P the other names I would choose would always be taken
  • winner909098winner909098 Member
    I just chose this name one day and it stuck.

    When I was 14, I thought Dronyx was unique.
    Then people started calling me Doctor Onyx.
    I was horrified.

    So I took inspo from Yoshi and the sounds he (she?) makes in Super Mario 64
    so maouw is an attempt to spell out what Yoshi says. (it's more like maaourrwww ... but close enough)
    I wish I were deep and tragic
