Where does you name/GT/handle/SC originate from?

[ando1184]

I come from a military background, my last name is Anderson and military personnel always use a persons last name. In Iraq I guess saying the full name was too many sillables or something because they later started calling me Ando for short. So that's where that came from.

 

[Espio]

Lame

Almost as lame as naming yourself "Top Tier Harley" for a shiter tier character .

 

[sub_on_dubs]

I had a dream where Sub Zero was riding on dubs and was regulating bitches with his frozen as ice back handed slap.

 

[Spooky Deadeye]

Back in mid 2012. Deadeye is a name that comes from a missile in Lost planet while fighting a big sand worm thing called Redeye. The Deadeye missile was able to punch through his hard shell skin and burn his flesh after it hits. I liked the name, Deadeye missile. So... whats with Spooky? AC-130 Spooky.

 

[Creepy00]

My nickname was inspired by watching countless fighting games streams done by no other than TeamSpooky. This was how I got interested and involved in the competitive aspect of fighting games, although these days it is only online. It was also how I found TYM in the first place, since Spooky would stream MK9 time from time. So, when coming up with a nickname, I thought of a nickname similar to Spooky as it was where my interested for fighting games originated and I ended up with Creepy.

As for my PSN username, I got it because 1) I always been a fan of Subzero since the first MK game I played (MK2 on Sega) and 2) back on the day when I used to go play Counter Strike on Lan, My brother used to go by the name of Scorpion.

If you can't tell, I m not very original lol.

 

[mrKrucifix]

When I was in late high school early college, I attempted to start my own comic series. As I was playing around with potential names, eventually Mr. Krucifix came up. I eventually went with something else (I forget what honestly, Crucifer maybe? Anyway).

A little later afterward, I got my PS3 and needed an online gamer tag. I couldn't really come up with anything else so I went with Mr. Krucifix.

Much later down the road, Injustice came out. This is when I started going to offline tournaments, weeklies, majors, etc. The TO's at first kept getting my name wrong, so I eventually just started entering as Krucifix, as it was easier to explain "Krucifix with a K".

I got some very minor notoriety for my Batman play, and the guys over at /r/InjusticeGame on Reddit dubbed me Kruce Wayne.

So, now I'm Krucifix in tournament, Mr_Kruce_Wayne on PS4, Twitch, and YouTube, and mrKrucifix on forums like TYM and Reddit.

 

[DownfouralitY]

In the process of talking to @NeckolasBone and making a new account on XBL he suggested "Downfourality" and I just went with it even though I never really used any character with a good d4 in MK9

 

[xInfra Deadx]

Mine comes from (Unfortunately) a Call of Duty sniper rifle which was only found in a DLC map (Call of the Dead) which is an upgraded version of the Scavenger named the "Hyena Infra Dead."

 

[K7L33THA]

Spawn comics which I used to be way into. The 33 is from an Unreal Tournament clan.

 

[aieches]

some of these are hilariously dope

BS You used to play Mileena

 

[Mr. Mileena]

Mr. ( Cause I am a boy)
Mileena (Fav MKX character)

Mr. Mileena

 

[DownfouralitY]

BS You used to play Mileena

I learned every character in MK9 and would play them for fun but I mean I didn't have a character I took seriously with a good d4 other than like sub

 

[Embestone]

Embestone - A name I gave to my troll mage in wow, deviating from mbstone (My first and middle initials, plus my last name).

Stoen - Also WoW related, I made a warrior named "Stoenheim" as a reference to Hoenheim from Full Metal Alchemist. People ended up just calling me Stoen, so it stuck.

 

[StealthyMuffin]

the best OST ever

Nope!

 

[-narshkajke-]

I like this one character from suikoden, an old playstation jrpg
Nash Laktje, he's a dude who's banging this vampire queen and made her his wife, he's just that good.
mad respect for the guy

 

[Undeadjim]

Just over 10 years ago I needed a name for my WoW character, spent an hour trying to get some sweet name and one of my faviorate childhood games was Earthworm Jim (bare in mind I was 12 when I started WoW so not that much a gap) and I was playing the Undead race. I thought the name Earthworm Jim was hilariously fantastic and I wasn't an earthworm in this game so I swapped it out and Undeadjim was born.

Crazy to think I have had this handle for over 10 years.

Edit: Fun fact my real life name is not Jim.

True habibi, that's my childhood there.

[KH_Seraph]

Biblical (Mentioned in Isaiah Chapter 6)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seraph


These things just look and sound seriously bad-ass. They're called the fiery, burning ones. Makes sense because I'm a Liu Kang player, too.

 

[vegeta]

I always joke that if I have a daughter I am going to name her Katana (Or Kitana), it can be a play on my name plus it could double as a MK reference I would never tell my wife about lol

Assuming this isn't a troll that's a badass name you have there. I like unique or uncommon names. Your parents are godlike. I have a friend who named his children after characters an example being his son Tenchi. It works honestly. I'll like my have a say in my kids first or middle name if I ever have any.

Please tell me it's your real name...

Lol naw bro my real name is Marvin haha. Though "Vegeta" may as well be part of my name or considered a nickname of sorts as I've used the handle for so long (16 years) that even when someone calls me that outside of a tournament/game setting (like chilling with people who know me by my handle and such and call me that outta habit) I answer to it without thinking or batting an eye.

 

[Matix218]

I was big into skateboarding and Matix clothing was my favorite company. The 218 part was from back in the aol instant messenger days because I wanted my name to be matix but it was already taken do it gave me that random number at the end. When I enter tournaments though I enter as just "matix"

 

[MK Led]

Led because I like short names, and as far as I can remember the only handle I've used. MK because I'm an idiot and fucked up somehow making my first tym account and couldn't log back in to it, so I had to stick something inoffensive infront of the username I had stolen from myself..

 

[TopTierHarley]

Almost as lame as naming yourself "Top Tier Harley" for a shiter tier character .

She has Top 8's though

 

[The Farmer]

Me and every generation before me have driven truck and farmed at least at one point in their lives in my family. I grew up on a farm, my family still owns the farm while I currently reside outside of Chicago, and I'll probably be returning to it someday to farm when my father can't.
