Okay i'll start... I picked mine because when the Sims 2 came out I thought it was the best game, but sadly I hate it now. :P

I think I was drunk when I made mine, I honestly don't know why I picked it.

Contraction of an old MUD name I used, but with a DJ because, well, I don't really remember. Someone called me it and it stuck.

I also earned the variant DJLay (thus my XBL tag, although it was partly due to MS being morons and not giving me my old tag back), which conjures all sorts of interesting mental images.

I took my real life name, cut out a few letters, re-aranged one letter, and got jaydough. I made it up for my Runescape account on February 26 2002.

I was given the nicname "Chaos" at a nightclub where I used to work, and I went with the closer-to-the-original-spelling "xaos" for distinctiveness; I've used it as an ID everywhere I'm able ever since.

It's a nickname 2 of my buddies gave me. Apparently I'm sinister/evil looking and the goggles part is because of my somewhat thick glasses. I liked it so I stuck with it.

Matthew is my name, so thats where the Matty comes from. The FTM stands for two things, both relating to my football (soccer to americans) team - Sunderland. It stands for "Follow the Mackems" (the mackems are sunderland) and "F*** the Mags" (the Mags are sunderlands rivals, Newcastle).

I didn't put much thought into it really. I just thought Solid Snake was a good name and 35 was completely random.

I get that a lot, but nope, it's a transliteration of the Greek CAOS

I used to have the name katz for my love of cats and my love of replacing Cs with Ks. Then gamefaqs merged and I got compeltely pissed off at having to be "katz_01" while some jerk from gamefaqs who was completely inactive on forums but technecally came a couple months before me got the name katz. Since then, I've been kittykatz5k because it rolls of the toung and I despise names with random numbers at the end of them.

I was really hyped for Metroid Prime 3 at the time. Had I made my account a week or two later than I did, it would've been something completely non-videogame related, like maybe DrugLord666 or Heavy_Metal_Jesus or something.
