    How did you come up with your username?
    Is it a twist of letters of your name?
    Something or some-one you aspire to be?
    Mine? Some-one else thought it up for me.
    I am Interested to hear your comments.

    hm..
    I tried so many usernames, till i get to Oli3L, my last name is Oliel,
    so i thought about a name with numbers, small letters, and capital letters.

    eventually i got to Oli3L :p

    Mine was way back since 5th grade, the first one I used online. I have used "Ratman2050" ever since. It appeared on a tv show actually. Not going into details but I have stayed true to the same username for 5 years so far.

    Just thought it was a funny name, its original as far as I know. I also wanted to see if anyone would use it as evidence against me in a debate, DP is the only place where someone has.

    Back in 2001 when I discovered a webmaster forum for da first time, geek/talk, da only sites I had were Nintendo sites, so I named myself Nintendo. I'm a hardcore Nintendo fan and hardcore anti-Trashstation/anti-TrashBox freak. Thoze systems should be destroyed from off da face of da Earth!!!! :D:D:D

    No, I don't know what Nintendo waz thinking when they named da newest system da Wee-Wee!!!! :D

    I like to be named Redman but understand i can't be on here, this is because it is pronounced the same as my surname but spelt different.

    Redders is a nickname of mine (and all my brothers! - can get confusing)

    No originality in mine, just a twist of letters of my real name.

    Well we have human billboards on DP too, so nothing surprises me :D

    BTW, I think she just means her name is Jerlene (nice name).

    It's obvious it's a website, Village Idiot. I was talking about the Jerlene part.

    It's a combination of my mom and dad's names.
