My player name was made because my first player lacked any point or direction so I made a new one with a clear purpose to score as many goals as possible and so I used my favorite quote from one of my favorite movies. If you aint first your last.

Oh! Our Finnish friends should know the answer to my username. It's a Finnish word for the northern lights. They're something I've always wanted to see, and their literal translation is 'fox fires'. I adore foxes and the myth that came to form that word. The word is, well, "revontulet" though. I added the e at the end so I can have a consistent username across the internet.
I rolled up a number of first names, and just liked Oliver the best out of the options. Then I rolled up possible last names for an American, Swedish, Finnish, and French player. Then I did a series of marble races to see which one won. France ended up winning, and I went with Castillon.
I got the idea of Hodor being my player a couple years before creating him. I can't remember when because I kept it a secret so it wasn't taken, but I wanted a strong giant for my player and thought he'd be best sitting in front of the net blocking shots (which is happily how the player turned out).
As we all know, the name John Gibson obviously comes after the EX (shouldve been) HOF John Gibson. However, my username has absolutely no story behind it, and turned into a simple thought one day and it has worked since. Sorry to burst your bubble
My username is based off of a nickname my friends call me, (Panda) so I wanted to use that instead of my actual name. The "man" part I chose because Panda isn't typically available so I needed to add another word to it so it would be available.
Chetib is actually a combination of my user name Tib and the first gaming clan I tried to start up called Cheyenne from way back in the day. While the clan was a complete failure I was proud of the attempt and it developed into the username so now it is Chetib.
The name Söderström was picked because I knew I wanted a Swedish player and was intrigued by the story of Linus Söderström, an Islanders draft pick goaltender who shared his diagnosis of autism and ADHD. Anastasia was picked for story reasons and it was a really cool name.
It's kind of a boring story really. First off, no it has nothing to do with sunny. Tsunny stands for Tsundere, it's meant to be a shortened version of the word. Way back I used to have the username "Tsunny_Nero" on Discord as a temporary fix until I can find something better, ended up taking off Nero eventually and just stuck with Tsunny. And now too many people know me as such to change it.

Radley Yates was a name that my wife came up with. It’s actually derived from a couple baseball player’s names, Kirby Yates, and Adley Rustchman. We’re big Atlanta Braves fans and when Kirby was a reliever for the Braves, we really enjoyed watching him. Also Adley was a rookie at the time so there was a ton of buzz around the league about him. One time, we were chatting about baseball and my wife was like… what’s that new pitcher’s name? Radley Yates? And boom, that’s where the my SHL player name came from!
I was simply looking for Latvian names, since I had decided to create for a nation that's big on hockey and that always fascinated me. Sandis Ozolinsh is one of the most well known Latvians in these spheres, so I kinda stole from him. And Edžus felt natural as a first name.
Tig is the shortened version of my full name and also rhymes with the word big. Notorious BIG --> notorioustig. Also I love it when you call me big poppa

Well, Ultimatedestroye was the screen name I came up with when I was like 7 or8 for an xbox username, and ultimate destroyer wasn’t there, so I took the r off, and so was ultimatedestroye
My username is pretty simple it's my xbox gamertag that I've had since I was 15. My player name is my first name combined with random last name that sounds like it's from the country my player is from.
Rest In Peace Dangel
