Hello-Guardians(^-^)/ !
One of me & my Fireteams favorite things to notice in this beautiful gamerworld of ours is a clever Gamertag ! Whether it's a fellow Guardian at the Tower or an opponent in the Crucible, a good Gamertag is always appreciated.
So share with us the origin of your gamertag! Why did you choose it & what does it mean to you? No judgements here(^.^)!
I'll start: Professor Hikita is a character from one of my Fireteams favorite 1984 scifi movies "Buckaroo Banzai" , he was the Japanese scientist on Team Buckaroo responsible for inventing the Over Thruster( I recommend the movie if you haven't caught it yet ). Most of my gamer friends use names from this movie.
We really welcome you guys to share with us your "Batman" names here!
Thanks always for your kindness & attention
(^-^)/

I started gaming on PC WAAAAY back in the day and I was always "Death". That sounded like I was trying too hard so it changed to "UglyDuck" (origin unknown...I was stoned or drunk a lot during this time and don't remember much). I went into the Army (not throwing it out there for props, it's an origin story so it's included there) in 2002 and pretty much stopped any online gaming. When I got home in 2007, I started back with XBL (I played a lot of Halo). I tried UglyDuck again but it was taken. I thought and thought and thought until I yelled at my dog for doing something that dogs shouldn't do (I don't really remember that either...my memory is kinda shit now) and had a eureka moment. The 0 is there because the version with an O was taken and I was set on the name. Been that way ever since. The majority of the time people think it's "Badoogie" which I guess is OK, too.
