    I made mine back in the 6th grade (I'm in 11th now), that was when the online lingo was getting popular so I was just being a weird little kid and used this. I stopped using it since last year, I either just do my full name and last name, or my first initial and last name. Like bPhimmasone (That's my gamertag and a lot of other usernames).

    Miles "Tails" Prower is my best Sonic character (Really! I don't even have a clue why, since he does annoy me)
    I combined Prower, 'L' and '485' at full force and got 'Prowler485'.

    My old username (deanxxczx) is my name Dean and then the letters following from this song

    Mine's a derivation from my nickname

    "Toffee" (which is a further derivation from my real name)

    with my year of birth

    ... to be honest, I can't remember why I added the -ster.
    I think somebody shouted "Toffster! Hommie! My Man!"

    mine actually spawns from years of evolution. on some boards, I'm actually know by my old nick, KAMagicwarrior.

    MagicWarrior comes from two places at once. At the time, I had a swordmage ( called a magic warrior by his fellow goblins) for D&D, and played Magic: the Gathering with a wicked warrior deck. Swordmage was already taken on most forums, so Magicwarrior stuck.

    KA spawns from "Kitchen Athouratah" a clan way back from counterstrike and maplestory (both since long defunct).

    Neo replaced KA as the prefix as the clan broke up (oddly enough because of a fight between General Mills and Captan Crunch (now you get the "kitchen" part)
