Where does your nickname come from? - Mag!cGuy - 10-29-2013 07:37 PM
All is in the title: where does your nickname come from?
As for mine, well.. I just thought it sounded cool.

Erenan is a name I made up for a character in a fantasy novel that was never completed. I later decided to adopt the name as a representation of a holistic purview of my identity, and since then I have been consistently giving the name to a variety of characters in a variety of fictional universes whenever I feel that one of these characters sufficiently represents a facet of my personality in some way.
One of those characters was given the name Erenan by another character. The latter named the former after Ernest Renan (E. Renan = Erenan).
"TheGreat" was added in my GameCenter ID because Erenan was already taken.

I thought "Memories" sounded cool....
I've been BurntPopcorn in other games. And a long time ago (Halo PC) it was Napo, short for Napoleon. Friend suggested that one and it just stuck..

Usually there are places where I don't know anyone on websites, so... I am just "someone." Someone21.
For GameCenter, I once made this Pokémon-like creature, named it, thought it was genius, and voilà! Chemoeum.
In case you were wondering what this supposed Pokémon-like creature is, it is an acid-based kind of creature that fits its chemical characteristics. It had this tail with an end filled with acid. When it is felt, it is somewhat said to feel... burny. Its body type isn't like a glob of acid however, it's still just a regular biped with arms.

No way! I used to read those all the time in elementary/middle school.
As for my name, I'm from Miami, and #3 is my favorite basketball player on the Heat.
Good idea btw magic! I've always been curious. Haha

I couldn't think of anything better when I was creating usernames. It has to do with my name and semi ironic. Haven't come up with anything better either.
