This one is super easy. For me my dad's first AOL user id was stuartnz, Stuart from New Zealand. So I basically just ended up stealing it at somepoint. Tomasnz Tomas from nz. I like it cause it is my name and it is where I am from and so far I have never seen it taken.

I thought I didn't have a discord account but when I accessed a discord for SHL I was surprised to see I did, in fact, make an account? I had no recollection of making one, but apparently I did, and the name was hotdog69. I think it's because "hotdog" is a funny word and it's often the word on my mind (like if someone tells me SAY A WORD RIGHT NOW there's a good chance it'll be hotdog) so that's why I (apparently) made it my discord name and now that's my name here

Tell us about your first no quite forgotten SHL user name then...

Its quite personal. It was my first nickname that was given to me at school. My real name is Krišs ("š"pronounces like "sh") so my nickname was just some derivation of it. I was called like that all the time until i got 16 I think. When I joined to SHL I figured out to use my old school nickname and put some numbers with it. 18 because of my birth date. Nothing original about that really.

In alternate universe I could have picked my that time my top username "DjPythagoras"

C9Van · 08-04-2020, 09:27 AM

My full username was Van Hooligan X but I changed it to a shorter version cause I wasn't 15 years old anymore. I like the best NA esports team (That doesn't fucking choke like Team Liquid or TSM) so put C9 in front of it like magic!

my very creative username on site was born from my email at work. All my logins used it and I was feeling like doxxing myself was a great idea. I looked at my drivers license to confirm how to spell it, and then at my passport just to double check. Then I made the decision to make it my name. I might shorten it to reid pretty soon just cause I like that better

lilstifler · 08-04-2020, 10:10 AM

Jesus... :D I like American Pie movie and there was that Stifler.. And in Latvia there was one reality show where was one guy who named himself as latvian stifler.. I just put word ''lil'' and that's it.. But it doesn't mean that I'm rapper :D

BasedMinkus · 08-04-2020, 10:52 AM

I had a player previously named Stuart Minkus from Boy Meets World and at the time Lil B the Based God was a fun meme. I combined the two and that is how you got BasedMinkus. I have thought about changing it but Luke thought it was BasedMiniskus so it will have to stay now.

CB2212 · 08-04-2020, 11:23 AM

well, Carlos starts with a C, then after that Brown starts with a B. So CB.

Then, 22 is a day and 12 is a month, coinciding with an important day in someone's life. thus was born CB2212.

Thank you

The root of the username goes way beyond its' creation but I don't really remember where that started. That said, my username proper is a pun on tuna and either the town of Thun in Switzerland or thunder (which is more likely, since Rio de Janeiro, my hometown, is infamous for its' storms). There might be an old Mortal Kombat OC or a Sonic OC related to this though, I'll see if I can remember it properly one day.

JSS331 · 08-04-2020, 11:41 AM

The reason behind my username is pretty simple, it is my initials for the first three letters and the number is my fraternity number from back in college. I have used this name on just about every site I am on.

Julio Tokolosh · 08-04-2020, 11:53 AM

Since the late 90's I've spent a week at the beach with my cousins every summer. One of the cousins had a PS2, so he would bring it and we would play it late at night, otherwise the aunts/uncles would get upset "You could be doing this in Bayonne, New Jersey. You're at the beach, go enjoy the ocean!". We had Tony Hawk (the original. not those smut sequels), Crash Bandicoot, every game in the Cabela's Hunting series, Medal of Honor, and the best game of all time: NHL Hitz: 20-03. Each year we would make a custom franchise. Each cousin would get a roster player, outfitted with a custom body and head (lizard, totem, pig, baby, etc.). We would play 3 players on the team, all locked in (no player changing), and the most productive player would get to stay in the next period and the other 2 would switch out, or if you lost a fight, you were done for the night, just like the actual Hitz gameplay. After a week of staying up until 3 wolfing beers and pushing the Thrashers through the glass, we ended up with a maxed out team.
The following years we would check our progress against previous teams by scrimmaging the titanic teams of years past. As we grew and improved, our playstyles evolved, and one player from the oldest team slowly grew in value. His name was Julio Tokolosh. He was the only player beneath 6'2" (at a minimum 5'4") and beneath 200 lbs (146 lbs). A cows head and a speedster play style, Julio was the only player whose stats focused on speed and finesse and less on being able to beat Chris Pronger in a fistfight.
When creating in the SHL, I wanted my player to embody the Julio Tokolosh play style. When prompted to choose a render, I filled out Dion Phaneuf, as he was the most cow-like in appearance (maybe Matt Cooke was closer, but I didn't want him on my page). A few weeks later after seeing that the render's didn't really matter, I formally switched to the cow.
The Hitz teams were stocked with names like Mr. Ass, Gunther, Old Gregg, Haywood Jablomi, Hugh Janus, etc. Tokolosh was named for the Zulu myth and had the name Julio randomly assigned. I believe it was because of the player's impish stature that the name came up.
When I think of my favorite hockey players from the early 2000's Tokolosh immediately pops into my mind alongside Roenick, Messier, and Lemioux because that was my first exposure to the sport of hockey.

LordBirdman · 08-04-2020, 11:59 AM

My username is LordBirdman because growing up, my nickname was “first name”-Bird. When I got to college one of my friends found out and slowly shifted my nickname to Birdman. When I created here, Birdman was already taken so for some reason my brain though to give myself lordship and I thus became LordBirdman.

CanadianDuck · 08-04-2020, 12:05 PM

My username is pretty straight forward. I am a huge Anaheim Ducks fan and live in Canada. The Ducks were my 2nd favorite team, but became my #1 as I got older.

FinnRhys · 08-04-2020, 12:11 PM

My username is not very original at all. It is simply an amalgamation of names of family members since they are some of my favorite people ever. When it comes to creating something I'm not very original so I default to something I know.
