Looking for an awesome IGN that I could stick with.
Finally settled on Ricochet when I saw my friend walk into a pole and bounce off it onto the floor.
Thought it sounded pretty good.

Dear Sc2SEA,

Based on the number of requests as to how I got my name, I thought I would just make a post here and refer people to it on a need to know basis. Whilst this is a somewhat complex process I think you will all agree that the end result is something to be admired.

Of course, there have been many derivations of screen name based on the intricacies of ones’ interests growing up. As an introductory user to the fascinating world of the internet I had a distinct interest in pokemon – so much so that the first username I ever adopted was a variant “poke” and of course, “N” for Nick – resulting in “poke_n”.

Now poke_n was used to play Yahoo! Towers – still one of the most epic battle tetris games in my mind at least. I used to enjoy the sound of the dial connection as my 200MHz Pentium 1 processor froze and spat images at me loosely resembling an appealing game. But I digress.
The next username, that I can recall, was a long-standing identifier which began with a pocket personaliser which my father had obviously found a rather redundant waste of a few dollars – donating it to his son.

Now this thing was quite advanced for its time (on par with the PC owned) and involved the use of a passcode retrieval system – without which access to top secret personal phone numbers and the like were denied. Using my innovative powers of intellectual rigor (as I do occasionally), I noticed that the following letters corresponded with the following numbers:

1 – C
4 – D
7 – E

I could thus spell the word CODE by substituting the O for a numerical zero on the keypad. 1047 became my number of choice – preceeded by “Nick” – I became Nick1047.

Nick1047 was however short lived after an email creation accident involved the forgetting of one’s person to the account nick_1047@hotmail.com. Now, the analytical advocate in me is the first to admit that creativity is not my best point. Assessing the situation for what it was worth upon the discovery of MSN instant messenger, I decided that my new name would be “Nick1048”.

Nick1048 enjoyed frequent use and prosperity, becoming a familiar name on the Warcraft III PvPGN network: Bored Aussie and serving as a primary online persona for yours truly.

I had always felt the need to find a name which was truly representative of the wielder. A quest of sorts, if you will indulge me, for it is an important identifier and the maker of a first impression in the electronic realm. The struggle was not an easy one. It would come in waves.

Considerable excitement then considerable doubt, formulation and reformulation. I knew of course that the quest was not one I could solve by mere description or social pretence. Deep down the desire to compose the perfect name was more than one mind could truly comprehend, I needed to consult the teachings of time.

Like all things derived, calculus would become my home.

And so it began with a simple proposition: a + b = c

Which of course included the following assumption: z^2 + y^2 = x

Or if you prefer: Z^2 + A^2 = x

The vector, represented by the pro-numeral “v” in this instance could be written explicitly of course for convenience of collecting like factors and using traditional calculus methods: Z^2 + A^2 + I^2 + N^2

Changing the plane in which one operates varies the results, and should of course be duly considered and without arbitrary notions of imaginary numbers the general expression:

M.R = ZAIN

In the final context of the conical sphere I calculated the following:

Mr-Zain = 0

And hereby we derive the final form of six independent representations of the relevant field. A systemic approach was then adopted by way of direct substitution to establish what the simplest representations of each equation would be. The result was as follows:

M
R
Z
4
1
N

Where the algebraic characters are representative of momentum, resistance, z-juice, and nitric acid. The compounds of which actively address gravity at the 9.8 constant without causing instability.

MRZ41N was born. Translated literally into plain English characters and the art of L337 speak, one can see the simple reversion to MrZain and then the natural progression to Mr_Zain.

Elementary really. Now please stop bugging me about how I got my name, especially you TARichard. I have very important work to conduct.

Regards,

-Mr_Zain

Take three consecutive letters of your choice (e.g. J, K, L), throw in some vowels and maybe one or two consonants to make it sound reasonabe, and you're good to go. (e.g. Jurkayl)

That's my process whenever I need a new name. The result is almost always available.

Xara also happens to be my name.
