    my name is what it is because the begining is the same as the person I love so the name it self holds deep feelings for me but only because its simular if the name were the same then I simply wouldnt be discussing it because I wouldnt be able to bring forth words to do so. (she has that kind of effect on me) {perfetic to some but then they have there reason for thinking that way and i want challenge why people think.}

    I chose Lenalee_Lee because I'm a fan of D. Gray Man. BTW I'm a guy just so u all know. She's cute lol. Well that's all for me. I'm gonna start a new file and it's gonna be a blade master using dual swords 24/7 and he's gonna be called PKKer_Haseo just like the DOT.**** G.U. Trilogy and the games lol. :D

    I wanted to use a different name, but that name was taken. But Fleuri seemed like a good name: flowers are pretty and for english readers my name might suggest "flurry" which fits an elf archer.

    My usernames are usually xlostcauzex but seeing as how u cant have lowercase, i stuck with something else. For Character Names I usually come up with a name that suits the character. When I played 9dragons i used my full name backwards as it is read in Vietnam and Asia. But for this game seeing as how im a Wolf Barbarian I chose Futeki Okami, which means Fearless Wolf in Japanese. Though I do speak vietnamese i can also speak some Japanese.

    Gilgamesh is the name of a recurring enemy in several Final Fantasy games, and love the name. Unfortunately, Gilgamesh was taken, so I had to make a minor addition to the name.

    BattleHymnRepublic never really had a meaning to me... It's relatively fresh on my line-up of names used for game accounts. Generally I waste my thought on in-game character SN's.

    I've used The 5th Symphony a lot, Minuet de Lune or Minue de Lune, depending on the character limit offered by the game... TheRagingSix, TheGrandMausoleum, DanteGheizst...

    I could go on n' on with names that have meaning to myself, that others will never understand or relate to. I think that can be said for a lot of people... I'm not completely certain but... Fantasizing over the ideal's behind a name and creating some symbolic story, even if just in your head, is part of the scheme of breathing life into them. Sort of a way to personalize the name as your own, and to take pride in your invention.
    At other times, favoritism comes into play, with infamous characters from anime or TV shows, movies, etc...

    TheGrandMausoleum - I chose that name because it was an oxymoron in certain aspects. A mausoleum, if anyone does not know, is something like a crypt or tomb. I use grand to describe some explicit beauty about such a commonly mistaken eerie place.

    Dante Gheizst / Gustav Moskovich - I consider this my fanaticism with foreign names. I don't know if this is just me, but sometimes if not always, names from other cultures sound more dominant or profound than what you find in the U.S. I'm unaware of too many immortally historic poets that aren't foreign, and I'd like to think that one day I could be as philosophically endowed as some of them.

    Minue de Lune - Something I patched together not too long ago, that I translate personally to Dance of the Moon. Obviously Minue de Lune sounds a hell of a lot better than Dance of the Moon, and more sophisticated, so I went with it. I'm always a little iffy though about creating too many 'foreign' names on one MMO, because people get the impression that I speak the languages. I have some sort of mental block when it comes to learning any language other than English. I'm not a complete idiot, but languages were my Achilles heel throughout school.

    I chose my name 1 because i like my necromancer char on GW and 2 because EVERYONE knows me by that char name no mater what im playing be it halo-FEAR or PWI

    what i do hate is how people "and this game is bad" feel they must ask if i know what necromancy means and lecture me for 20 min about it. well i think veno is kind of a necromancer and they control their pets lol

    plus didnt have room for "PINK-POWER-PUFF-POWER-RANGER"b:chuckle

    Nicomachean is a form of ethics written of by Aristotle in his work "Ta Ethika". Barring some of his more chauvenistic attitudes, I'm a fair fan of Aristotle.

    My second character's name is Nicobarese, which is the name of a city in the fiction work "The Sword of Truth" series by Terry Goodkind. I've used that as a name for my mage characters in every game I've played, since original EQ.

    Both Nicomachean and Nicobarese have Nico, obviously, which is also contained in my real life name. b:pleased

    My name has some 'Deeper Meaning'.
    It's a name from a book (Can't really tell you which one because it's not published and it doesn't even have a title... Don't ask...), but the name itself has a 'hidden meaning'.

    It's a cute name for someone who does what I do.

    It's my cat's name in Chinese. It actually worked out well since the cat is named Cobra and venos do all that poison stuff and the mythology says they are descended from poisonous snakes.
