    I'm going to start.
    My gamer name that I use in pretty much every single game I play in is Reonordo. Honestly I don't remember why I picked that gamer name but I guess I really liked it. And no, it doesn't have anything to do with the name Leonardo even though you pronounce it like that. You pronounce Reonordo like Reonardo. My other gamer name is Ultimeite which I use for side characters. I wanted the name Ultimate but either it was taken or I wanted something different from the actual word. I came up with Reonordo and Ultimeite in 2007 when I played Club Penguin. Lastly, themadelf is a gamer name that I rarely use; I only use it when I can create an elf character. I created it when I was playing in the now closed game Kingdom Heroes. It was an MMO game based in ancient China made by Aeria Games. I made a character who looked mad and had long ears, so that's what I named him. I also use that name in social media such as tumblr and others. Now I would like to hear your story!

    One of my cousins introduced me to the game Realm of the Mad God or RotMG for short. At first I didn't like the game graphics nor the controls, in RotMG you have to dodge alot of projectiles suing your arrow keys or wasd (Can't remember which one). So I told my cousin straight up "I'm going to suck at this game, so I'll just name myself the big noob" I tried TheBigNoob, it was already taken so I just replaced The with Da, at this point my gaming name is just DaBigNoob. I on the 7th of January 2013 created my youtube channel and felt like something was missing, as the person I was at the time I thought "For The Win" sounded pretty cool and chose to add it to my name.

    I then just simply stuck to it and never changed it again.

    The name Flamy27 came from when I was 10 years old and I played all different games including Club Penguin, Roblox, Minecraft, Runescape and etc. From that point on I have kept the name and have never bother to changed it because I really do like it.

    My name used to be MyMixedNuts, but I got Koter while playing Castle Crashers with a friend, where there was a guy booting us from his game named K. Oter, As a tribute to a guy being a genuine dick for no reason, I adopted the name Koter.

    THE EEEEENNNNNNNDDDD.

    My name is from a hero of mine. December 17, 1905 – April 1, 2002), nicknamed "White Death" (Russian: Белая смерть, Belaya Smert; Finnish: valkoinen kuolema; Swedish: den vita döden) by the Red Army, was a Finnishmarksman. Using a modified Mosin–Nagant in the Winter War, he acquired the highest recorded number of confirmed sniper kills (505) in any major war.

    A simple farmer who protected his country. They sent everything theu had at him and he kept going.

    Long story short, I was playing this old game called Uberstrike. It was fun, and I wanted a good name. I looked everywhere and remembered about my cousin's old gamer name Phoenix. I stayed with that name for a while until I was a nerd about science so I decided to begin my name with Micro (sounds ridiculous but this was a few years ago). This is funny, but I looked over to my printer and saw Microline. Which I thought was pretty cool. I kept that name for eight years now and Phoenix ten years.

    Basically was drinking the energy drink brand rock star while making my PlayStation account, and I couldn't figure out a name so I looked over at my empty can and decided to just take the c out of the name.
