where does your nick come from?

[GoldPhoenix0]

Mine... i wanted something cool to be aliased!

so, anyone remember Zoids? thought not, it was the main characters zoid (the Liger Zero) which in something like season 3 or 4 could join onto another zoid called the Phoenix. so its name was Liger Zero Phoenix, so thats where "Phoenix0" came from.

Gold just came along for the ride when Phoenix0 didnt sound awesome enough!

tada! GoldPhoenix0, it kinda stuck after that!

[enigmabrand]

At some point I was playing Diablo 2 and decided to name all of the characters on my account with some synonym of the word "Enigma", "Puzzle", etc. I made a sword-wielding barbarian. Since a "brand" is a sword, I simply juxtaposed the two and came up with EnigmaBrand.
