My first screen name was spinkle, circa 1993. But it's also been my nickname since 1990.

Quijiki_the_Slayer.

Quijiki - the name that I came up with for a Chao in Sonic Adventure Battle 2.

Slayer - I was playing Golden Sun at the time, and when the earth adept was loaded up with Venus djinni, his class became 'Slayer',

kempodragon22

Hell, I still use it sometimes.

i was 12 or 13, the days of aol and prodigy. And I was TheFritoB because TheFritoBandito was too long.

:V

Billypp109 (1999) - My father gave it to me at random when I discovered the Internet.

Boiler_Demon (2000) - I was in seventh grade and Limp Bizkit's video for Boiler just came out. At the same time I was getting into mythology and demons and whatnot.

Ulyth (2004) - I had a role-playing website at one point for a good year before I didn't have time to run it anymore. My own character was called Ulyth_Asteri, The Reaper, which I got from a name generator. He was an intergalactic mercenary that wielded a tech scythe and could turn invisible. The character was based on concept art of the Elites from Halo.

I was like what... 16 or something? idk...
I had two screen names I remember having first...

ThePhoeniXmen
and WickedX

then people started calling me Wikki, so that stuck

I've always been Logan.

J-Rock79

WBS circa 1997

Hmm I can't pinpoint it exactly, I was a little late to the game.

I think if I remember correctly it was sometime around early 2000s I made my first AIM account. think it was

Roxxors 13 - A play on the whole "roxxors your boxxors, that rox/roxxors, putting x in normal words /etc" Was probably somewhere around 12/13.

I know I had Qtee007 for the longest time since I was in high school... I think I had aol name Kalinda something or other because I was a jr. High "novelist" and my main character had this name. And I was completely awesome and made my first AIM friend whose sn was Tekkaman88. It was awesome stuff.

gohan8504 - Gohan is self-explanatory. 8504 was from the screen name suggestions since Gohan was taken. I still use 8504 at the end of some usernames for some odd reason. Oh and this was for my free Juno account. That's right...Juno.

Until after high school, I never did anything with computers, chatrooms, nothing. At that point I was already in my old band and had been given the nickname of Fangy. So since the summer of 2002 I've always used Fangy as my username for anything.

Starks4a3: Because to quote myself from then, "John Starks is the best basketball player to ever touch a basketball." AOL, c.1995/1996

DenzelWJr: My mom had my previous name deleted, and I wanted to get ladies just like Denzel did. AOL, c.1996

The_Chunkmeister: While I was at Embry-Riddle's flight camp, I'd gotten the nickname "Chunks," and "Chunks" was either already taken or too short. Hotmail/MSN, c.1996

TinManInACan: I had picked up the nickname "Tin Man" in middle school and hated living in MD, which I felt kept me "canned-in." AOL, c.1996-1998

Goku Jr 25: Somehow the previous name had gotten away from me (deletion, hacked, I don't remember). At this point, Phil & the rest of the TV geeks had introduced me to DBZ & I was a BIG Goku fan. 25 was my number from JV football. AOL/AIM, 1998-present


...and that's just the '90s.

my first screen name was chosen by my dad because i was only 12 when we first got AOL. so my log-in was "spseagle". my initials are sps, and i was a boy scout at the time. also the eden prairie high prairie high school mascot is an eagle.

the first screen name i chose for myself was in 95, early freshman year in high school. got it for AIMer. "SeggsGhettofyre"

My first screen name was also chosen by seggs' dad.

boywhosucksmypenis

By mistake, my first screen name was Account Settings.

I've only had two screen names since I got my first PC thirteen years ago. My first screen name.

My first screen name was Rikdom, after the mobile suit from Gundam. It lasted only about a year or so. Beltane70, or Beltane if the name isn't already taken has been my screen name ever since.

My first screen name was made when I was like, 9 or 10 and was Speshulwun2007. I kept this for a while and then changed to Fireylilbabydoll on Neopets (oh god I hate myself) and at 12-13 a friend decided my new nickname was Spooky because of the paleness and I used Spooky4444 to join a Penn & Teller fan forum and made friends with this girl there whom had her own site with fan fiction and in order to write a few things for her site (god help me i wrote fan fiction stories about magicians) i needed a last name and so "SpookyGhoul" was born and is still my AIM name because I'm lazy, though everything new I sign up for is Laurette and LauretteOB

Kev said:
Pylon. I thought it was a cool word. I roleplayed online in WBS chatrooms where I was mocked for being like... fucking 12 or whatever. First time I used it was in a Z100 chatroom in like... 1995 or '96 or something.

I thought it was "Kev-chan"? XD

Mine was "yuushi747" on AOL.

Still use "yuushi" because it's a sort of Japanese translation of my name, "Dustin"

Dustin = "Valiant Fighter"
yuushi = "Hero"

In other words, I'm huge fucking nerd.

And the 747 was just because I thought I needed a number for a screenname and I had flown on a 747 not long before that.

I am having a conversation about my first day ever on the internet and searched my old screen name, and this thread came up in the google results. I'm cracking up.
