How did you come up with your PSN ID?

[epiczail]

It's the same as my username here.. It isn't anything genius or special but it is a play on epicfail.... but instead epiczail (replaced fail with my name) Pretty lame but oh well.

 

[Sturgis]

BASEDxSTURGIS

Basically, "BASED" comes from the BasedGod, and Sturgis is my regular user name.

 

[ProfessorPanda]

Old clan I used to run with.

 

[abcdefghijun]

My name means "are you crazy?" In Filipino, because I used to run with the local clans here. And I love it when people try to say my ID online in games like Battlefield. "KABA! Give me med packs, bro"

 

[Keenir]

It's from a book series -- the same one my username here is from, actually. I'd been stuck with some stupid usernames in the past, and since you can't change your PSN ID, I wanted something that I wouldn't look back on in five years and groan. Adding random numbers and letters doesn't sit well with me.

I feel pretty fortunate, actually. It's short, easy to remember, and the fact nobody recognizes it means it's never taken anywhere. I started using Keenir more a year or two ago, so that's my secondary account for buying stuff off the US store. A lot of classic ps1/ps2 games don't show up on the Australian store, so I needed a secondary anyway.

 

[nickjt]

Mine is very unexciting, it is just my first name, my last 2 initials and the year I was born. I am not very creative but now I am stuck with it and I use the same thing most places.

 

[Ofnir]

Mine is one of the enemy mobile suits from Gundam Stardust memory and my favorite mech ever.

 

[Link10103]

Was a randomized generated name from Runescape, have used this name ever since. No one ever uses it, it feels unique, and pretty easy to remember. I can't understand how people have names like "Johhnynkjbvksbagkhjabguay7rt46285" and still remember how to long in half the time.

 

[alexiskilgannon]

My PSN ID is identical to every ID I have on and offline. My first name is Alexis, but the "Kilgannon" in my screen name stems from a comic book series entitled "The Amory Wars." Kilgannon is the last name of one of the main characters in the series.

 

[GutterKeeper]

A friend kind of came up with mine. She told me my mind was always in the gutter. I told her that it was my gutter and I just allowed her to explore through it. Hence I became the "GutterKeeper".

 

[Rivyndail]

My boyfriend picked the ID and used l33t so as not to look (his words) "too obvious about it." It's okay, though. If I'd have chosen something myself, it would have been lame. Probably something like a DnD character I used to have or some such.

 

[Gul Dukat]

I knew right from the start that all names I wanted were probably taken, so I just went with my first initial, last name, and the year I was born.

 

[Titan]

I came up with flightlessbeaker just for my PSN. Was gonna use Titan but obviously it was taken and in my gaming handles I never used numbers. I decided to do something with meaning knowing that this is probably gonna be a permanent handle. As a teenager I wanted to be an Airforce pilot but I was told I wouldn't be able to fly because I had asthma as a kid. Hence flightless. Beaker was a nickname a boss gave me at my high school job because I have a big nose. I embraced it as a nickname to his displeasure (he thought he was insulting me, lol). Put them together, I have flightlessbeaker

 

[SpaceGuy]

I used the abbreviation from my country with the "trademark" x's around it because I was young at the time, I regret it now. But the other part of the User ID is my first name, which I am sure my fifteen year old self did not think through clearly.
