What's behind your Username?

Postby zilla103192 » Tue Apr 19, 2011 2:18 pm

since we have "What is Your Avatar?" and "What is your Signature?" threads, I decided to start a new one off.

What made you choose your TK username?

Zilla103192

I have been using this name for everything since I first joined DA about 2 years ago. Zilla use to be my favorite monster and 103192 is my birthday. 10/31/92

I named myself after one of my favorite Guyver characters:

Originally, I was gonna call myself Purgstall (another Guyver character and my personal favorite) but I decided not to since I was already using it at another forum.

That's the creature Guyver fights at the end of the US movie isn't it?

As for my user name I just thought gvamp sounded cool, if I can't use gvamp then I throw my in my real life nickname tuj (pronouced tuge) at the end of it. Or throw and underscore between gvamp and the tuj to (gvamp_tuj). My real life nickname has an interesting tale behind that. In 9th grade I had a friend that'd call me Teej because at that time I was using the name TJ to disguish myself from my father and my other friends thought it was odd to throw the e in there so they decided to call me Tuj and it stuck. At first I didn't care for the name but now I do.

Nope. The monster at the end of the first US movie was just the movie version of Dr. Barcas/Balcus/whatever's Zoaform. I say movie version on account that we haven't seen what Barcas' Zoaform looks like in the manga yet. Draglord is a completely different beast than Movie Barcas. Draglord is the alternate mode of this guy:

When he's about to go into Draglord mode he orders all nearby Zoanoids to fuse with him to create the Draglord body. It fires missiles, fires a beam that can destroy a city at its strongest setting and it has several tentacles along his back so that nobody can attack him from behind.

Years back, I made an account on the Chao Island forums under that name. I made one thread, acted like the n00b dumbass I was then and never got on again. Later on, I decided to register on TK (back on the old boards) and decided to use that same name.

I like Gamera vs. Gyaos, and "Gamera" and "Gyaos" were already being used as display names. I decided to add the word "Showa" to the name because the Showa version is my favorite incarnation of Gyaos.

I considered changing my display name in Toho Kingdom once the old boards were archived. Couldn't do it. This display name is a part of my e-legacy.

Kane Locke is the name of my very first character created for an RPG. I've carried it on since, and use the name literally everywhere.

If you see a KaneLocke or Kane_Locke somewhere, chances are... it's me.

Wataru is a characted from one of my favorite animes called A Wind Named Amnesia.

If youve never seen it - go watch it. It's an amazing anime. I think it would make an awesome live-action film.

Well... I'm more a fan of the Heisei era Godzilla as a character. The number is from Halo, another one of my favorite franchises.

Yaburu is a Japanese term. It literally means to destroy or to conquer, but when I first read about the term in an old book, it was defined as "someone who isn't qualified to win, but wins anyway through sheer determination." I liked that definition a lot, and took it as my moniker. Though these days, I've been moving away from it. I'm noticing there are other people starting to use it on other sites, so I've adopted a nickname my wife gave me that I'm pretty sure no one else will ever use.

HayesAJones is- and you'll never believe it- based off my real name, Hayes A. Jones. That's just crazy, huh? It's my universal name too.

In all seriousness, I've never gotten why names like XXXXhayeszilla573572535 are so popular. Keep it simple, I say.
