<div class="IPBDescription">Ugh I hate this</div> As more and more games come around, developers seem dead set to make players pick "proper" names such as one that starts with a capital letter and is folled but naught but lower case letters after it. To people like me who use the name "Freak83" it's terrible, especially since I consider this my identity.
As long as anything allows me to use Freak83 I won't detour from it but some games like WoW and GuildWars don't allow you to use anything remotely close to names like this.
I have never heard anything I would actually like to use as a substitute so let's see if anyone here can suggest a new <span style='font-size:6pt;line-height:100%'>(ugh)</span> <i>standard</i> name for me. Only one I will use where I have no other choice.

@Crispy, all lower case after the first letter. No numbers at all.
For me to give you some suggestions you'll have to give me the reasoning behind your name. Was the 83 when you were born? Why the Freak part? Answer me these questions and I'll be able to throw some more suggestions your way...
or just
Freakatethree

This goes back a few years, to grade 6 or 7 when it was just standard behaviour to act as crazy and idiotic as possible. Being as uncreative as I was I chose to use the name "Freak" for a Diablo II account. It obviously been taken I put the random numbers (no significance at all) 83 after it. It stuck, and I've just used it since for years.
Yeah, entering into university now and I try not to refer to myself as a "freak" these days anymore. The name is just a name mind you, doesn't really reflect me anymore anyway.
EDIT:
I have no idea how you guys got your names, from hobbies? Personal experiences? If it's out of hobby's what can you make out of NS, drumming, golf, and skiing that actually sounds good? =/
(that's just suggestions btw, don't actually have to base anything on any of those factors)
Casus for death.
Anima for soul.
Inimicus for personal enemy.
Adversus for opposite.

Just say random crap out loud until you hear something that sounds good. Preferably 2-4 syllables and isn't in a dictionary.
Crispy's a nick-name I got from Uni, it's a cooler version of the third forename my parents christened me with...
yeeaaahhh find something in there...
What? I think it's a cool name.
::EDIT::
I AM on aim, noob. Perhaps it should be I who is doing the hating, Hicks.
.:EDIT:.
Haha, owned Cold Nite.
or
Number Eighty Three
both sound pretty good
Nah that's really a bad idea. Relating something other than Geminosity to her name gets her pretty **** off, trust me I know.
Once upon a time Google-whacked her name so that when you searched 'Geminosity' it came up with something other than her Forum posts and the like. She was none too pleased.
Shoelace?
Go for Eigthy Three, then.
Then I went to college, and I needed a way to make myself easy to identify. So I picked my Residence Hall/clan followed by my name.
Don't force yourself to stick with a "Internet Name." My current one is either Naked Dave, or Naked German--nicknames I earned from real life.
Personally I'd petition for your right to go by the name you choose. If that's unacceptable choose a name like "Fluffy Bunny" or something equally moronic. It's just a game, after all.

It's kind of annoying because you can't use your standard name, but I think it makes a much nicer universe.
