    I have been using this name in different games for a while. Originally I tried to figure out a female version of the pirate Cervantes known from the Soulblade/Soulcalibur videogame series. I think I did quite well with addapting it to my gender by adding an ia... for Cervanta really sounds like *doh*
    Cervantia BM 100 / Calivthel Cleric 101 / Davinella Archer 9x
    Kachengy Seeker 8x / Pianna Wizard 8x

    I played this game where there was a group of people who played together, they were related to eachother with their name also. When I started playing PWi Some of my irl friends downloaded it too. We decided to make a "group" like that too, so we all chose an adjective + a member of the cat family (both starting with the same letter). We ended up with PreciousPuma, TrickyTiger, LavishLion and JollyJaguar. I am the only one who didnt stop playing after 2 weeks so, yea... Im stuck with a **** name now b:victory

    My main character is my Veno her name is Onaja which is a variation of Onawa which is Native American and supposedly means "Wide Awake". Also my main pet is a sharptooth wolfling and it's name is Otaktay which is Lakota. A friend of mine laughed when he saw it's name until I told him it was Native American and what it meant "Strikes & Kills Many". He apologized and said it fit him very well.

    Back in the 1970s, radio station KTSA in San Antonio had a guy who flew around in a helicopter and reported on traffic. He was called Captain K. Always thought it sounded cool so I adopted it as my main nickname on the internet. Had to shorten it here because the longer version was already taken by somebody.

    People usually assume I named myself after Captain Crunch cereal or Captain Kangaroo.

    (Kiyo for short)

    I used to go on RP forums and do text based RP. This was the last name of my RP character, and I hated the thought of using underscores or pushing words together. So.. yeah. ^^;;
    Please, call me Kiyo. b:thanks

    I might have you guys on this one. I have three characters. Bai_Qi, Xiang Ji and Lu_. The history of these three men is legendary. Bai Qi (?-257 BC) was an outstanding military leader in the state of Qin in the Warring States Period, born in Mei (now the Mei County in Shaanxi Province, China). As a commander of Qin army for more than 30 years, Bai Qi was responsible for the death of a total over 1,650,000 enemy soldiers and civilians, earning him the nickname Ren Tu ("Human Butcher"), and seized 70 cities from the other 6 States in the Warring States Period. No record has been found to show that he was defeated even once all through his military career.

    Xiang Ji or Xiang Yu (Born 232 BC, state of Chu, China — died 202 BC, Anhui province) Chinese aristocratic general and cultural hero. He overthrew the Qin dynasty and tried to return China to a pre-Qin ruling system. His forces were overwhelmed by Liu Bang (Gaozu), founder of the Han dynasty, and Xiang Yu chose suicide over capture. His heroism has been glorified in Chinese stories and poetry.

    My Character Ryukezen's name came from Soul Calibur III. I made him as a swordman in that game and when i first created him on PWI he was infact a swordsman, but then I moved to axes because I wanted to have stronger attacks.

    A lot of people say I got my name from the famous barb Ryukensen, which is totally not true. I met him AFTER my character was created and at times I've been told that my character is 'mocking' him based on the similarity of our names. Well I've met him recently on his new character (I wont name his character for his privacy XD) and I didn't recieve not one haterade from him like I have from so many others.

    I wish it would stop >.>b:angryb:cryb:surrenderb:laugh
