Your Name in Hive.

[Rex.]

Whats the reason you choose your Username to be what you have right now?

If you ask me,... its hard. I got my name from a cartoon. NVM, just tell me yours

 

[Cherrymage]

Directive255.

I choose this name from a quote of Tiberian Sun Cyborg Commando and Centurion Siege Crawler in Mental Omega 2.0, "Directive?".

 

[Wasabee]

Apcrab came from crab apple trees. Though apples are not grown in our place.

 

[Windrunner29]

Windrunner29
you know Windrunner (one of my favorite character) and 29 is an important number for me

 

[Ardenian]

Well, my name has a pretty long history.

I invented another name a long time ago containing Arden, which is from 'ardere', Latin for 'burning', if I recall right.

I used to choose Arden as a name, but after some time I got bored of using always Arden, so I thought about a new one.
I read some fantasy novels and as I like elves, I tried to make it sound like an elfish name. So the name Ardenian was born.

 

[Celaquil]

We've had this kind of thread before, some couple times. But there's no harm in
recurrence of this theme. As I've mentioned in the previous threads, the name
"Keiji" was inspired from a historical person named Keiji Maeda.

Although my interest in the person was more because of his character in a game called
Samurai Warriors, than the actual person.

 

[Duke]

Got my nickname after Duke Nukem because he is a tough son of a *****

 

[Crused]

The story of my username is simple,my user name shall curse the site with my upcoming maps!

 

[Razosh]

My original username was love1994ba as my first name is Love, my two last names are Björling and Andersson and I was born in 1994. I later requested a change of name to Razosh which was the name of a character in a fantasy story I wrote when I was 13.

 

[SA Dashie]

Idk ask my 12 year old self lol.

 

[Shadow Fury]

Shadow Fury
Simply because I adore the word "Shadow" and wanted to let it shine a bit more so I added "Fury" to it.

 

[Chaosy]

Idk ask my 12 year old self lol.

Same here. I wanted to name my character Chaos in WoW but it was taken so I took Chaosy for whatever reason. Just went with the same name here.

 

[StoPCampinGn00b]

I needed a name for my steam account and I wanted one that matched the theme of the games I would play.

To this day, I'm not fond of my name. People end up calling me Stop or Noob, which isn't pleasant at all. Ingame in multiplayer maps is where I'm most annoyed as people will blurt out, type out rather, "Stop!" The confusion is real!

If I had a name change, I would've chosen Radioactive, Smoke_And_Mirrors, or even SCN. That won't happen though, as the consequences for that outweigh the rewards in the scenario I'm in.

 

[Almia]

Almia

Just a Feminine name from Pokemon(it's actually a Region, and sounds female). I also picked it because it matches my true first name(both have Al), and this name sounds like my sister's name.

My true first username was Radamantus, It was a name of the hero I made years ago which became my favorite hero. I also got it's name from the Greek mythology.

 

[Sclammerz]

Sclammerz

It was given by my friend when I don't know what will be my ninja's name in "Ninja Saga" and after that I became fond of the name and use it as my username everywhere where it is needed.

 

[GhostThruster]

I like bill murray and I love ghosts

 

[Daffa]

The first word, Daffa comes from my real life name.
The last, the Mage is a reference of my favorites to Mages and Wizards. I'm a big fan of Kirin Tor and magic stuffs.

 

[Tickles]

My name is the one form of torture I know I'm susceptible to. I wear my weakness with pride instead of hiding it in shame.

 

[NhazUl]

A name for the self-insert protagonist of a fantasy novel I wanted to write when I was fourteen. Basically a good-aligned death knight Mary Sue in a Warcraft ripoff, so that went nowhere.

Now people have accepted it as my real-life nickname.

 

[Idaero Ace]

Idaero Ace is the name of my original character. My real name is Ivanda Aprillion S, I used first word on my name as base.
Idaero is Ida-ero, based on Eroge. And Ace is based on ass.
Because my OC is expert swordman, and he is fast, so I put "aero", or wind which i think is something fast. And I am not sure about Ace. I have no idea for that, maybe because it sound like "S". I am planning to change "Ace" to something more epic.

 

[Arad MNK]

Arad MNK

Arad is My Name/) And MNK is my Abrrevieted Last Name (MahdiNejad Kashani)

 

[Gismo359]

I once heard the word 'gismo' and I thought it sounded cool. The numbers 359 sounded cool too so I added them as well.

My last name was 'Bruto97' (maybe without the 97, I dont remember). 97 comes from 1997, my birth year but I dont remember how I came up with the rest.

 

[Light]

my original name was LightofDeath (masterhaosis loves that name ) based off a former professional DotA player. people kept calling me LoD and i kinda hated that nickname, so i told them to call me Light and i pretty much just stuck with it.

 

[Stefan.K]

Stefan is my real name and "K" is the first letter(I hope I didn't screw this word D of my surname.

 

[VeljkoM]

My name is a secret test only select few can guess. To average human it is incompressible gibberish or very poor attempt to spell Welcome.

Spoiler

In truth it is just my real life name Вељко and last letter of my surname.

 

[Deleted member 212788]

I sort of plagiarized the concept behind my username when I was young (somewhere around 10) from a role model of mine. Basically, "don", which you might have guessed, is a another way of saying "Mister" but sounds better, at least to me. The second part, "svetlio" is just my real life name that none of my friends use anymore. I am currently known amongst friends as either just "don" or "Cardbox". The latter is a story for another time though

 

[Deleted member 242951]

I regret having gone with something so basic. "demon_slayer", yuck.

 

[VeljkoM]

What are you talking about, witch hunters are awesome.

Witch Hunter

 

[Xanthus]

Xanthus is one of Achilles' two immortal horses. He prophesied Achilles' death when he was given human speech by Hera. That story is the reason why I picked this name.

 

[Deleted member 242951]

Witch hunters are alright.

 

[Pinzu]

My nick was given to me. When I created my first WoW character a friend named my troll hunter Pinzu - Don't ask me why, maybe he though it was a troll sounding name, who knows. Anyway it was better then his BNet nick of peanuttroll. So all things considered it could've been much worse!

 

[Blood Raven]

Took mine from Diablo 2 / Act 1/ Quest 2, not from Warhammer40k, as many of you might think.

 

[hiphop4eva]

I took my name from a war3 cinematic that I watched, where the pro, the noob, the roleplayer and the dota player tries to win an escape map. I am sure it is still out there somewhere. Before leaving, the dota player says ''Hip hop 4 eva!'' I got my name from that. It also sounds weird, like my style.

E: Found the map.

[NFWar]

Got my first PS2 console back then. Played Need For Speed alot. Good times. Thought to get a nickname similar to that one. Afterall, games I play based mostly on warfare, conflicts and violence. "Need for war" it is then.

 

[BloodDrunk]

BloodDrunk

From a metal band Children of Bodom's album called "Bloodrunk", released in 2008.
I simply love the name and I will always be BloodDrunk!

 

[MasterHaosis]

Ah, and I though that you drink blood in free time, and once you were overdoing drinking blood, thus became drunk... Blood Drunk
Now seriously, nobody got idea ever how I got my name.
it dates since I was child. One of my password to net coffee (that was popular in past) was Master and some numbers... I once ate ice cream Chaos while playing Yuri's Revenge there... Yuri had Chaos Drone, so I saw two stuff having word chaos in name. Since then I remembered it.
One day, when I decided to join here, I combined those two words into name, MasterHaosis as everyone knows me now.

 

[Footman16]

Footman - Cool Warcraft unit.

16 - Couldn't go with just Footman for my username so I chose 16 since I think it was the number of Footmen I spammed in a B.net game once for lolz, forget how well I did.

 

[Edge45]

Mine was originally Edge or some other terms of that (No, not the one from FF or the wrestler), but since I was a noob on emails by that old time, didn't know how to activate accounts, and somehow, forgot the password, I created another,
This time, Edge45, where "Edge", as the sharpest point of the sword, which is a favorite name of mine, and "45" which to me, as a favorite number, and shows the sign of a diving Eagle or Phoenix,

 

[Ash]

Ash. It's my name.

... I don't know what else to say, really.

 

[InfernalTater]

InfernalTater.

My old name was TLI-Inferno, and I wanted my new name to be close enough to be recognizable by those who already knew me. I also like potatoes. So I gave myself a fancy name for hot potato.

I was renaming myself because my old name never really meant anything, and I never bothered to change it. The TLI- part was back when everybody was putting their clan tags in their name, and friends and I were trying to start a clan. But before we made the clan, we suddenly came across Clan GoED (many, many years ago), which included the creators of Heroes and Empires, Battlecraft, and Multi Square Defense, three maps which I still love to this day. So we joined them instead of creating a clan. The TLI part didn't really have meaning, but it was something that was easy for people to remember, and I wanted people who knew me in-game to recognize me on THW, so I used the same TLI-Inferno username here. I've used it on many games since then before finally deciding to start making my username InfernalTater from now on; but I'm still TLI-Inferno on BNet and BNet2.0, as well as many flash game sites like Kongregate, where I'm TLI0Inferno.

So there's the history. Pretty boring, but that's the birth of the burning spud.

 

[Binsu]

Hell_Master

Got my name because I was thinking of Ghost Rider and is one of my favorite. Simply put it that way.

 

[Ofel]

Ofel

It's simply taken from my true first name, in english it's "Ophel".

 

[Gilles]

Part of my last name.

I've actually changed from using Gilles to using Gyllz since it's so much cooler. That and it's much less likely to be taken already.

 

[Misha]

My Nick? I's an 'english-i-faction' of my Irl nick.. kinda boring..

..little did i know people would glue that darn bear on me for the end of time..

 

[InfernalTater]

My Nick? I's an 'english-i-faction' of my Irl nick.. kinda boring..

..little did i know people would glue that darn bear on me for the end of time..

I hope you can the burden of that association.

 

[APproject]

APproject

Back in 2007 I met a guy in national gaming forum, his nick name was project17. He was the first one I talked about passion for map making, we shared knowledge, we shared maps and we played each other's maps, he truly motivated me to get even better at this. One day he was gone, never showed up. Then in 2008 I found Hive, I just needed some models to download and drop few comments, so I made an account.

I named this account in honor of him just because of his impact on me, if not him, I would probably have dropped map making long time ago, so I wrote word project in my name, as it was in his name. AP stands for the first letters of my first and last names. That's my name's story, hehe.

 

[Edge45]

@APproject

I thought yours was "A Project" XD

 

[APproject]

Hehe, no, Pp is not a typo.

 

[Chen]

Chen Stormstout is a Warcraft character.

I went full addict to dragons so I name changed to Chenralstrasz

Years after i went full crazy I mean people are having a hard time typing my name so I changed to Chen.

I'm really insane so I wanted another name change but I blame myself so I'd be wishing luck for myself cause reasons.

 

[InfernalTater]

Hehe, no, Pp is not a typo.

I always thought your name meant "Advanced Placement Project".
