Got the nickname of Preezy during my bantersaurus 5-a-side days, as a twist on my surname. Not sure if I even like it anymore but hey waddayagonnado?

I think you actually got the name from Urban Dictionary.

Preezy

a guy or girl who are relatively easy to get with or hook up with
man or woman who are pretty easy to have sex with.

Walker:I heard that girl is preezy?
Ricky:Oh, she is dude, get it son.
Walker:Nah dude, i dont like sloppy seconds.
Ricky:This is true

Seems accurate.

:lol:

Mine is Spanish for Lionheart. Chris Jericho used it when he was wrestling in Mexico, I liked it and it’s generally been what I’ve used to hide my identity for a while now.

Surely it's just a mis-spelling of Rocksteady (of Bebop and Rocksteady fame) from the Ninja Turtles.

I've been using Trelliz (or the new variant Trellero whichcI think came from the PCS mumble bants one night) for so long I can barely remember where it came from. I think a friend and I were messing about on eJay in the late 90s making utter gooseberry fool music and we wanted some sort of monikers to hide our shameful output behind. I looked out the window and the first thing I saw was the trellice in the garden, so being an edgy 90s kid I deliberately spelled it wrong and added a z on the end. Job done. Fortunately none of the "music" survives to this day but the name stuck.

My name is Michael. I enjoyed Spanish at school and I used to hammer my friends at Goldeneye 007; so I put the two together and came up with Miguel007 :lol: :fp:

I came up with a good Xmas name change but it was to late :lol: Miguel Ho Ho Ho 7.

A silly anagram of first name (James, perhaps obviously), originally "Jassem" before correctly recognizing replacing an s with a z is the coolezt

Weirdly, I came up with it when trying to think of a Star Wars-y sounding name for KOTOR...a game I played all of 20 minutes of, yet that username continues to be used some 15 years later. And no I don't know how it even remotely sounds Star Wars-y either ._.

Mine is a line from a David Firth animation, Saland Findles OMG. My PSN name also stems from the same animation.

I used to really like Family Guy and enjoyed the quote, and the name seemed to be well received so I stuck with it - mostly. I've now been using it so long it's difficult to imagine using anything else. More than 15 years I'd think.
