Over the years I've come across alot if unique and wierd gamertags and psn usernames. So I thought I would make a post and see how you guys came up with them.
I created mine about 10 years ago when I was big into the game runescape. I really wanted it to be "awhisperinthedark" but it was taken already and I really didn't want to have number in my name. But after trying for a good hour with different variations I made mine darkvoice7 and had to settle with a number at the end which was my favourite number. Since then it's the one I use for all online games, and I use darkvoice8 for forums and stuff.
If we can get this trending and keep it trending then maybe we can get deej and cozmo to tell us how they got/came up with their names.
Edit: alot of these are really unique :-) it's cool to see how certain things outside of games can have an effect on how people made their names.
Edit2: over 150 replies wow! I honestly wasn't expecting that many :-) thanks to everyone for contributing. Im enjoying reading them, and I'm sure other people are too :-)

I wanted a word without symbols or numbers, almost impossible to have a gamertag that way that isn't taken. Narcodium isn't a real word, but when I thought of it I was 13, it was 1996-97 and I was taking an interest in ( not taking ) narcotics and their effects on the mind. At the time I dubbed the euphoric state some people experienced on narcotics as "narcodium"... Years later when I signed up for Xbox live, no one thought of it or coined it so used it... I still like it, sounds more of an alien element to me now
