@ majestic, I wish I could say that.

@ mastakilla, just because they are black doesn't mean they are not racist, it works both ways you don't have to be white to be racist.

A few years ago I tried to make my own homepage. Since I was (and still am) an anime-fan the page was supposed to be about anime. Back then, there where no _good_ german site about anime and so we tried to make something like "the ultimate anime-page ever".
When it came to the name, we decided to choose the name "Animehexer". It's "Anime" and "Hexer" (Witcher) in one word. We, mostly I, used this name to register for webspace and such stuff.

But this name was to long for people to remember. So we shortened it to "aniheX". After I used this name for stuff like webspace it became my identity somehow.
Now write this name completly lowercase, while the X was uppercase in the first place.

For short: "anihex" is a self made name. The nice side effect is, it's realy rare that I can't use this name ;)

Same here with Valgothy, the nick I used before starting ~[E]~. It realy doesn't mean anything, just something I thought sounded cool + it is unique. Even WoW doesn't have a Valgothy :P

I got my name from the movie "My name is nobody" with Terence Hill as "Nobody" and Henry Fonda as Jack Beauregard.
Wikipedia wrote:Jack Beauregard (Henry Fonda) is a tired, aging legendary gunslinger who just wants to retire in peace in Europe to get away from young gunmen constantly trying to test themselves against the master. The film opens with three rascals ambushing Beauregard in a barbershop. After Beauregard has dispatched them, the barber's son asks his father if there is anyone in the world faster than Beauregard, to what the barber replies "Faster than him? Nobody!"

Started out playing as Yanni_The_ Commie when I first started playing online FPS in late 1997. Sooner or later I just played as Yanni, with occasional screw around aliases like HammerTime or MonkeyBusiness etc.

I remember rejecting a MonkeyBusiness back from [ARM] days lol..

I chose Sasquatch after I've seen Tenacious D movie, the character was kind of funny and had big feet like me :)

The name Death Master is kind of popular in gaming but the first time I thought about it was when I looked at the DVD stash of my uncle and the title of one of the movies was the hungarian translation of the word. I was wondering what it would sound like in English and then I figured it would be something like this. It happened many many years ago.
