I chose Kaiju King because... I dunno. It sounded cool? And reflected the fact that I'm a kaiju fan? Then added a hyphen in between Kaiju and King to make it different, and stuck 42 at the end so that if I put my username in on google, I would show up. I chose 42 to be the number because at that particular moment, my Bionicle obsessed friend at my table was going on about... well... Bionicles. And the Bionicle Makuta have 42 powers, so that was kind of a "heat of the moment" thing.

So my user name was created pretty much randomly. No real reason behind it.

My username is a variation of one of my nicknames, and I like Shadow the hedgehog is also one of the reasons.

I named myself after the guitarist from Cynic and Exivious. It's pronounced "tee-men" for anyone wondering (Swedish I believe? Something from nothern Europe anyway..).

'JAG' is my initials, and the first thing that came to mind when I signed up for Toonzone, my first forum, back in '05. I also use it for Rebelscum. Figured I'd use it here, too, and adding 'zilla' just seemed appropriate. It's referencing Godzilla, of course, not the iguana.

I went by KaijuKing on Kaijuphile. That just popped into my head, pretty much, and I liked the sound of it.

Back when I joined alot of people were adding Rex to the back of their names. We had a ZillaRex, Carnosaur Rex, and I swear a few others.

I wanted to do something Gorosaurus related, and just going for the typical name seemed too...mainstream? So I just added a Rex on the end.

At the time, I needed to make an email address.

Hmm.... Favorite band? Green Day! No, Aiden... Green day... Aiden.... Shit, GreenAiden.

555 comes from a few luls friends and I used to have. In almost any game with a score, I could NEVER land 666. I always landed 555, which 5 just so happens to be my favorite (and lucky) number.

GreenAiden555@aol.com. My first email address.... Which doesn't work anymore, by the way.

Now, how did the name come about?

I used to play Kingdom of Loathing, and every username I typed in didn't work.... So I figured that I'd just use my email address.


Boom. If you see this name, its me.

God I hate the old stuff I used to do on the internet.

My most used internet username was JohnVMaster - first name, last initial, Master. Realized how stupid this sounded and went by the acronym and it's stuck ever since. A lot better than Godzilla#1Fan.

I've always used a variation of 'Destroyer' in all my internet aliases. Why? Well, growing up I really liked Destoroyah, and I was so used to the dub's name, it always stuck with me.

Originally i was going to use my first name (Hernan) but just didnt use it.
"Giga" comes from SSBM since at the time i was beating Adventure Mode and i though
"Bowser really looks like he could be in a Kaiju movie" and Bam! thats where it came from.
The more i think about it, The more im liking it so this could be my "Internet Alias" sort of.

I use it everywhere online, adding various numers if nexxacery (23, 42, 117, ect.)
