Well, that was the question. Since there was a thread about forum gimmicks, then the sigs, so I made a thread about usernames.
Cthulhu was a pretty recent username I was using; I used it in a forum before but for only a few weeks until I started loitering around here. On the other hand I used the "aka" bit way before Cthulhu. It started out in a writing site I used to participated in. I was kinda the leader of a group of writers, and we had a group account thing. In any case, in that account we had an "aka" added with out slightly modified usernames in order to make us look arrogant. Back then my username was aka Providence, which I still use once in a while.
Now, talk about your username origins. Anyone who says "it's my name" will be shot due to being not awesome compared to my username origin.

Ah, how I got my username. It's a quaint little tale.
When I finally decided to join the forums as a full-time member back in April of 2008, I wanted a name that not only I would like, but something that people would remember or like. I had a few ideas roaming around in my little maze known as my mind. I had thought of Lupin the Third, Mega Man, and Speed Racer, as these 3 were favorites of mine. I chose Speed Racer because, as some of you know, I am a drag racer. So I thought it was fitting. Speed Racer it was, and the rest, they say, is history.

It started as GrapplerCrappler cause it rhymed and it fit with the wrestlecrap name. I shortened it to The Crappler for awhile. For awhile now I have been pretty settled on The Great Crappler as an homage to The Great Muta (and because I am great) with various Great Muta/Keiji Mutoh avatars that I change every now and then. I almost never change my sig. When Boogeyman was fired the first time I made a special edition version of my sig with Boogeyman face paint. I also briefly used a special edition version with Great Muta face paint. I have made other 'special edition' versions of the sig, but I'll wait for a reason to use them.

Up until I was 15, I posted exclusively on wrestling forums, and used the name "Y2Josh". However, when the time came to join a non-wrestling message board, I didn't think that name would fit very well, so I just came up with "guyofownage" on the spot. Nothing to it, really, although I'd probably change it if I could come up with something better.

M = The first letter of my name (which, no matter what my PSN ID says, is not Mark... at least not quite)
Blaze = a name I've used on a variety of forums for at least eight years now (I've tried various other usernames but it always goes back to this at some point). Is a reference to Johnny Blaze (Ghost Rider is one of my favorite comic book characters) and Blaze Bayley (former Iron Maiden singer who kinda sucks but has a cool name).

I thought going by Dr. Claw was a little formal. So now I go by Claw. Yeah.

I am named after the protagonist of the game Zombie's Revenge for the Sega Dreamcast. It wasn't the best (or easiest) game in the world, but the name has always stuck with me due to it's ridiculousness.

I almost always use a handle that goes with the theme of the forum I'm joining. I like history, and I saw that a lot of people on wrestlecrap had handles which incorporated the name of a current or legendary wrestler. So I typed in Frank Gotch, little did I know that people would think it was a gimmick. Long story short I went with it and now I am Frank Gotch. Outta my way!

well, my name is pretty straight foward. In high school I played some Jazz and still do to this day. GRB is an shorthand version of the name of my high school, G. Ray Bodley, and Jazzman, cause that's what I am.

an abreivation of my name, the number 666 and the zombie thing started due to a comment from one of the posters here about the undertaker and how you couldnt be undead if you didnt have a leather jacket and 90% of my photo's showing me with a leather jacket... then i swapped between ghost and zombie because i was bored, and eventually stuck with using both.
if that makes any sense.
