Sacrimo is my name, how do you do?

I am Italian, but the name has Italian, and dutch in it.

Sac(A very nasty artifical fruit(dutch))

rimo(Nick named Italian word that means "a machines ass")

rimo was a joke my dad made up, and he is very perverted, so he put Sac before rimo(at that time when I was 1, he didn't know the slightest dutch till I was out of 4rth grade)

So Sac+rimo=Sacrimo, YO!:infl_thumbs_up:

I just made my name after a series of calculations and studies, I also looked in the historical books and scavenged the internet. That's how I came up with mine.

My name was discovered long ago by Eldar Farseers in a captured library, that itself contained lost knowledge laid down by the Eldar from since before the Fall. It was during a cataclysmic battle between an Eldar swordwind host, and the 1st company of the Blood Angels of Sanguinus. It was during this conflict that the Thousand Sons traitor legion, came through the warp and made battle with the two as they fought like gods trying to keep the Library in their posession.

I just a young Guardian at the time, was an escort for the Farseer Inyaldir. And while he labored with the ancient psycho active sheilds protecting the long lost lore. A Chaos Scorceror named Medgiddo crashed through the security gate that our Bonesinger had placed over the chamber's entrance.

Ambushed, and labored. My master Inyaldir could not turn away from his task of securing the lore for Eldar hands. So my fellow Guardians and I had to face the warp spawned wretch alone. My brothers began to fall left and right, and I was but one of the three left to defend my master. With a battle cry to Khaine the war god. I lifted up my shirukein catapult, and rushed towards the scorceror. Shards of psycho metal flew from my weapon, though deftly they were swept away by his evil power. He then summoned warped horrors. And I began to tire.....But with one last bold charge I danced about the horrid creatures and casting volleys of shards into the flesh of the beast I was able to bring the warp fiend down, and as its shredded body collapsed. I turned my gaze to the Scorceror, as he began to walk towards my master. I could not stand by and let the fiend kill him, and take the lore. So I activated my fleet of foot, and blazed towards him with my knife drawn high above my head...And with a single swift strike I stabbed at the only open spot in his armour.....And down he fell in shock at his pain....And before his space marine body could defend itself I stood upon him and with my shirukein catapult spent all of my rounds into his mutated flesh.

When my master completed the ritual to bring the shield down, he lifted out of the container...a single book. And in its pages were detailed accounts of pre-fall lore. And in its hallowed scripts the name Elenai was found, meaning "The Star Of Judgement". And my master gave to me the name as a reward for my duty. And with the rest of the Eldar forces we left that Asuryan forsaken planet for good. Until a chaos gate was discovered buried deep within its twisted crust...........

@Divineboss: Right...unoriginal....And I suppose that you are a gifted literary critic, and that using 40k as a backdrop for one of the numerous ways my name came to be is just absolutely out of the question.........I love sarcasm.

My name also came to be when I looked down and a pool of snot I had just expelled from my Imperial nose into a tissue....it formed the word Elenai.


And thats a nice way for a name to come about Arch Paladin General Frankus Strikehammer.........IE General Frank.

Well my name is gavin, and me first email name was gavdaman, which I'll admit is fairly immature and arrogant but I've used it ever since for forum names, and the 88 for the year I was born, and also because a lot of big forums already have a plain gavdaman.

My name means:
Wowbagger, the Infinitely Prolonged

Wowbagger is an alien who became immortal due to an accident with an irrational particle accelerator, a pair of rubber bands and a liquid lunch, so therefore does not know how to handle being immortal. This is in contrast to the rest of the immortal beings in the universe, who are, in his opinion, "a bunch of serene bastards." He eventually comes up with a plan to keep himself busy: he will insult every living being in the universe - in alphabetical order. He appears in the third book, Life, the Universe and Everything, while insulting Arthur Dent with the phrase: "You're a jerk, Dent; a complete asshole" (in the US changed to "...complete kneebiter").
Wowbagger is also present in The Private Life of Genghis Khan,[4] where he insults Genghis Khan, provoking him to burn down large segments of Asia.
In the new radio series, he is voiced by Toby Longworth. In the Quintessential Phase, he finally reaches the end of his quest by insulting the Great Prophet Zarquon, who revokes Wowbagger's immortality.

Well, I came up with mine when I was pissed that my old account had been cancelled (had been playing KoTOR, Disciples II, etc...) so I thought, and randomly came up with the name... DaedraEater! Better than all my old ones...

[FpR]General
Ranav
AragornOfSpringfield (actually, maybe this one's not TOO bad)

Although, now I get compliments/a few good jokes and laughs from Oblivion and Morrowind players on B.Net. And on Planet Elder Scrolls and my FileFront account I have the name *drum roll* middle-earthman. Last minute that one was...

EDIT: Uh-oh, thought last post had been this month, sorry mods/admins for necroposting (or am i?).

This thread is kind of a personal matter of opinion about yourself. Of course the first word of my name, came from a personal history in the days I was in Elementary School, I usually saw lots and lots of smokers when my parents took me around on trips and everything (That was fun).

But anyways everytime I saw smokers I was always scared and most of the time seen lighters with blue flames called Embers (Back then I was afraid of burning myself, so I was afraid of flames/hot items, of course spicy food was ok for me though).

Then I had a dream that I kind of remembered, it was about some sort of voice and creatures surrounding me showing lighters with embers but then some sort of thing put it out and said ... (I think) "Don't be afra.." then I woke up all of sudden, wondering if that dream would come again but frankly none of my dreams were never like it ever again, to this day I still remember the blue flame, Ember that was put away I use the word to remember the good and bad memories back then. :sad:

And of course Naga came from my favorite Warcraft 3 Race. So I formed EmBeR_NaGa. :bored:

-Off Topic-
The Fiery Naga species :) = meaning I might make some sort of flaming naga race even though thats makes no sense at all lolz.

My brother and i were elite in the game America's Army, and together we were unstoppable. Back in the day when they had special admins going around they accused us of cheating, which we never did (your audio is the biggest and most important factor in determining whether you will be good or not) so we made almost identical names
Danjir`
`Danjir
(Danger)
The tilda was a glitch character and you had to press the button to ban someone.. And since it happens often to naturally good players, we added it.
When they accused us of cheating we'd say things like "AHGAHHH, we're cheeding!" "He's cheeding!" "Cheeders, cheeders!" "There are cheeders in here!"
Just a big laugh from mocking them.

Again, banned by admins at the time (which they don't have any more), i took to the name they called us with my brother's twist.

Cheeder

(FYI, i am extremely anti-cheating and could go on and on about the psycology of cheating as a mental defect! haha .. ot byproduct of one's lifestyle.)

Thing about most people they wanna take same path everytime, or oftenly used paths, or camp. I did none, always changed path slightly and ALWAYS kept moving.
