Sat around thinking of names that sounded "Saiya'jin."

Arthos just popped up in my head. I later found out it's been used elsewhere by other people and things.....But I don't relaly know much about those uses.

Unlike my other Pseudonyms, this is an Exclusive for ESF, The Specialists and MechMod

Valinga, post the full story when you've got the time, your name was was one of the ones I had in mind when creating this thread. And I like the way you got V.A.L in there, cooler than ice.

Nice to see some of them have stories and histories, most of which i'd have never guessed (except the really obvious ones ;))

My name comes from my zodiac, Taurus the Bull, which I am a very storng Taurus and not just the good things "loyal, trustworthy, etc." but also the bad things "stubborn, bull headed" and such. My favorite band is RUSH, you should look them up if you've never heard they play some superb music. there most famous album is 2112, which is actually an entire story about what they fealt the earth would be like in the year 2112, basically the entire galaxy is controlled by "The Solar Federation" it is a very strict religious form of government where music is outlawed. The main character finds an acoustic guitar behind a waterfall adn see's how amazing this music is, since most people don't even know what music is at this point. Anyways he takes the guitar before the high priests and tells them what he found and then they laugh in his face, and go after him, he then runs and hides behind his beloved waterfall, and dies of starvation, but with music in his heart.

We've taken care of everything
The words you hear, the songs you sing
The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes.
It's one for all and all for one
We work together, common sons
Never need to wonder how or why.

We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx
Our great computers fill the hallowed halls.
We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx
All the gifts of life are held within our walls.

Look around at this world we've made
Equality our stock in trade
Come and join the Brotherhood of Man
Oh, what a nice, contented world
Let the banners be unfurled
Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand.

that is just part of the 20 minute song, enjoy

ill be honest, i hijacked this name from an old friend of mine,

i never planned on staying here as long as i have, changing the name has come up several times but too many people already know ME as nuttzy and a name change at this point would be pointless,

Well I can do The Rock's people's eyebrow and everyone at school used to call me The Rock (shutup Silent Bob -_- they did!) Anyway The Rock was too hard to say so it got shortened to Rocky, Which I liked a lot and put it on my Year 12 Jersey. Eventually I started using it as a chat sort of name but unfortunately a lot of people had thought of the same idea before me, so in most cases 'Rocky' was taken. So in order to fix this I just took the year I was born and stuck it at the end Rocky87. If Rocky87 was taken I just stuck another 1 at the end (dunno why) but my real nickname is Rocky if you're gonna refer to me.

There is actually a story behind mine. Eh, So here goes.

When I first started playing esfback in 1.1. My name was Chris109, because my e-mail address is [email protected].

Well it was that until I found out you could 1. Change your alias, and 2. Change it to something someone else had already ^.^ So i was like "cool"

Then I met Zeonix. And we were both noobs at the time. So we trained together. We both progressed quite well getting quite good at the game. Well I thought his name was "uber cool" So i thought "well i need a cool name as well" so i sorta spinned it off of him. I was like "Zeonix eh?" And then twisted it to Phoenix cuz i knew it was a mythilogical bird (stated in my previous post) But to make it so it wasn't too close to Zeonix's name i Put Fire in front of it, because a Phoenix was a bird of fire. (So it's sorta like saying "Fire Fire Bird" And it stuck with me since. I even had my old account on the forums changed from Chris109 to Fire Phoenix. I am quite fond of the name :D

Orignally "Halcyon"....... means "Calm and peaceful"

changed to "Raven Blade" for 2 reasons:

1. Had already registered my Halcyon account a year or so ago, and couldnt remember the password. So need a new name.

2. Liked "Raven" & "Blade" was taken from FFT (Final Fantasy Tactics). FFT has a character class called "Knight Blade" (Only usable by Izlude (one of the shrine knights (the one in green (god that alot of brackets)))). Honestly I dont even like the name, but meh... people know me as Raven Blade now.

When I first decided to delurk and begin posting, I wanted to choose a saiyan name. I did not want a [insert stage of transformation here]Vegeta[insert serial number here] name, nor did I want a lame invented fusion. So I made up a fictional saiyan name and character, much like Arthos, and went to town. Later on, a sprite, created by SPiN made the "cucumber" character famous. I began adding on details to the green devil untill it began spewing life of it's own.

My old nickname (Snake101) came from Solid Snake of Metal Gear Solid fame. Since I wanted something a little more original, I came up with Amayirot Akago.

Amayirot = Toriyama (creator of DBZ) spelled backwards.
Akago = crude Japanese; means Red 5, which was Luke's codename in Star Wars.

The name was originally created for a character in an FLCL fan fic I was working on, until I decided to stop working on it.

I was a big fan of Chrono trigger and really couldn't think of a name.

At first, when I first started playing ESF in beta 1.0, my name I always used was "Psycho Mantis." The coolest villain from any metal gear game. Then I let my Chrono Trigger madness take over, and I started using hte name MAgus ingame, then I signed up on the forums with it. :eek:

Psycho Mantis was cool - but I preferred the Metal Gear Ray battle at the end of MGS2: Substance.

I had a mmorpg paladin named Sazuka (my old nickname) and i made another character with a similar name. That char was a kickass assassin named Sakuma, she got famous and everybody started to know me from her, so it sticked to me, as I liked the name I call myself like that since then.
