I got mine from a Satelite -.- Stratos eventually became Spartaz. But that was only a temp name ^^ eventually ill make the transition to my true name hahaha.
EZ sons, CombatEX obviously, I believe he is a good player and is very entertaining... He has changed a lot form his sniping and BM days! Although he still does BM a bit...
Well I decided to go with something different from breadfan (for some reason, it's my handle everywhere else), and I was listening to Diamond Head at the time, I threw in some random capitals and BlitZKrieg was born
When I was playing World of Warcraft a few years ago, me and some friends had a habit of 'shortening' words for no real reason. ("can't be fucked = cbf = ceebz" for example), I made a new character which was a Death Knight and 'shortened' DK into DeeKz, before this my characters name was named by someone else so I didn't really have a proper ID, it eventually became my main ID.
Funnily enough no one really gets it and just thinks it's a 'funny' way of saying dicks lol.
I've had various nicknames throughout my gaming life. My first nick was Benjamin, back in my Adventure Quest days as a 9-year-old. Well, my name is Benjamin so go figure.
When I started playing WoW, I got a little more creative, and living in Europe at the time I wanted something that sounded German (don't ask me why) and started with a Z, and Zchlade was born (pronounced shlarder, not shlayde). Fantastic wasn't it? After that I had many names in WoW, usually born through wanting to spell a word using alternate letters (for example every second letter in Dernugioda (starting at the first) spells Druid),
For a while after that most names were just randomness (with the only condition being that it sounded like a name fit for the race I played).
Sorathez was originally my name for the second Mii I made (the first was Chikusho which is Japanese for Damnit or something to that effect), at the time I was getting in to Manga and I like the Japanese word for sky, "Sora" and instantly the name "Socrates" popped in to my head, so I mashed them together and corrupted them a bit and ended up with Sorathez and that has been my main IGN for about 3 years now, on Wii, forums, WoW and StarCraft as well as various other games. I have since stopped playing WoW and Sorathez the Druid has gone in to a steep decline.
On NA I'm known as aQszL (was also my twitch.tv nick for a while). This name (pronounced Axel, not Aqusizzle as Meatex likes to say it :P) came to me just before I slept. Axel is a fairly common name in Denmark, and it was a name I liked, but I wanted something that was spelled very strangely because I'd recently had a conversation about stupid names with outrageous spellings (for example, one could be named "Strawberry" but had it spelled Qrf, go figure). As such AqsZL was born, but overnight I forgot the capitalisation and ended up with aQszL.

Use to have a bad habit of stealing street signs and letterboxes when i was young 16-18 and drunk walking home from stuff as a teenager. pretty stupid now but funny at the time and just became my alias for forums and stuff and stuck when it came to sc2. also i like it coz its not
"XxDarkxXDEM0NxXHUNTERZZXZZ" which was pretty much what everyone elses xbox live gamertags looked like
My friend came up with this cool idea of removing 1 letter from his name and make that his nick.
So obviously we'd make fun of him by doing it ourself.
That's where LindN was born, it's my surname with a letter missing somewhere. Shumped is a nick I've had for over 9 years now. Used it back when I started playing on PC with CS and Battlefield
I got my name from a form of saying Captain. When I was about 5 I gave the name to my cat. Many think I got it from animal crossing but I've had the name since before it came out.
At first I was flairmonkey, that was too long for Xbox Live so I tried Gleefulmidget. Gleefulmidget was too long for PSN so I became gleefulpixie. It stuck haha!
Growing up playing Halo Trial on pc and Becoming alright at the game .
one of the best players on the servers Was a guy name Anivom.
Now me and my friend would have to practice for hours each day even to start to become close to beating this guy.
Eventually i decided it was time to get a new Name . My original name used to be PRO PKR (pro player killer) From when i used to go back and play runescape. i used to dominate the PVP scene :P
But as i progressed on in games i decided Well hey ! Venom sounds bit like Anivom (lol wut) so i was like yea Lets do it!
So i went on from there and changed to Venom.
Since then there have been a few changes back and forth with names. i used to be >>ŅA<<Venom. But as i left the halo scene i change back to stranded Venom!
