Explain your name

Explain your name

Right I have seen some cool and some not so cool names in my years of playing online games and I often wonder how the name came about. Taken me all this time to think- ask them!

So me first, Guinny is a shorter term derived form Guinness. I was Guinness 8 years ago in my first love of rtcw playing for a clan caled UDS. Guinny was used on comms and when we had to incorporate a sponsor in our tag Guinness did not fit. So Guinny was officially born and it kinda stuck, even after the sponsors went the way of the dodo!

Now you lot

It's from a nickname when I came back from travelling with a massive beard and long hair. I had another online name but my nephew used it for years when I gave him my old pc so it's his now.

Fuego is short for 'El Fuego Fuerte', which was the name of my main character in an MMO I used to play a few years ago. So I've now just sorta adopted that, and variations of it, as my online name wherever I can.

Re: Explain your name

My real name is: Michael Augustyn and the Y in Augustyn is quite special in Austria (everyone writes it: Augustin here) so i love the letter Y. During my internship in england i was called Mike, and the combination of mike and my favorite letter makes Myke. And i like the '.' at the end of bandname 'Bloodsimple.' therefore i use it in the nick.

Quite a long explanation for such a strait forward name.

I'm interested where Pissmidgets nick comes from =)
