Mine is a bit nerdy..
Way back in the late 90's I was going to play an online game with some work friends. That game was Everquest. As I sat there one night trying to come up with a name that wasn't already taken in the game, I started going through some Norse mythology and decided on Loki since he was the Norse god of mischief and I am always cracking jokes (usually sarcastic) at other people's expense.
Well Everquest had a block on names that were based on other characters, so I couldn't use Loki. I ended up adding the second k to it to beat their filter. Thus Lokki was born and has followed me on most message boards since.
This sounds a lot like my story, minus the nerdy part:
I was playing a virtual reality game, minus the virtual part. It was called "Gotham City Rampage". The point of the game was to raid your grandparents' closets and wear the first articles of clothing you find and then terrorize a city as bad guys in colorful costumes try to stop you. Curiously, a couple of pussies wound up in clown outfits. Another guy found an iron in his grandpa's closet, so he had to fry the side of his face. Some other chick kept trying to sleep with everyone who looked like she fell into a garden of stinging nettles, or poison... oak, I think it was.
Then, some dude showed up in an odd outfit, somehow we both got by the name censors with the same name. He was a big meathead, like so-jacked-you-can't-scratch-your-ass big meathead. So I kicked his ass and somehow wound up being raised in a pit.
Then I met a cool girl down there. Turns out her dad ran the place. Her dad kept telling me I was the "Bane of his existence," so much so, that he just kept calling me "Bane."
Even after I all I went through with fighting that goofy-looking dude and getting to keep the name "Batman."

My first name is Tiger.
teegre is a phonetic spelling for tígre... which is Spanish for "a man who wears shorts in winter."

n. /toh'nee hip'chest/- An Apache warrior name bestowed unto me by the Mescalero Indian tribe upon return from my first mescaline induced journey into the spirit world.
(actually none of that is true, but it sounded good.)

There was a poster named Bane, not sure if he's on this website, from SteelersFever. I needed a new username a while back, and I'm a huge Batman fan, so I changed my username to rival his.

I am a HUGE Batman fan as well. The Joker in The Dark Knight is one of my favorite characters of all time.
Now that The Joker, Bane, AND Loki are here... I might need to transform to....

Yeah... that's just what you need. Another new name, BG, Weebs, Dubs, SteelersYak, etc., etc., etc.,...
Maybe you should just say fuck it and go with some stupid symbol like Prince did a few years ago.

I'm from a rather small Belgian city, about 100.000 residents, it's the town where the famous Belgian beer Stella Artois is brewed. Stella and Steeler sound a bit the same
