What's in a name?

Hey everyone.

While browsing the forums I've noticed a lot of people have interesting names. My name has a small story behind it.

About 3 years ago there was a radio station in my town called POWER 92.9, I listened to this station so much i decided to base my Runescape name off it. I ended up going with PowerCrazy13 and Iike it.

Now that you've heard my story, please tell us what your name means and how you came up w/ it.

Thanks,
Power Crazy

Nice topic

Well I was thinking of an original name, and didn't like my first username so I decided to flip randomly through the dictionary.

I found "Soundproof" and thought, hey it's not bad since it kind of makes sense for me
(I was shy and didn't talk much, and also muted the rs music in game) [Silly reasons lol, ofc a couple years back though]

My friend had a similar name to mine, we were both going to be pures but he stopped playing.

Gluume was just me taking the word "Gloom" and changing the spelling around so I could use it. :$

I do not know how I got my name, but I wish I could change it.

Nmr7
N = last letter of my first name
M = last letter of my middle name
R = last letter of my last name
7 = best number ever

I still think it's fine apart from it sounds a bit like "Nimr" which someone I don't particularly like has that name.
If it was my regular initials, it would sound like something too, "Wgz" if you can figure that out. Actually, the things they both sound like are related. XD

To be honest, I thought you were trying to copy Shane/Mike but couldn't fit the 0 in. :oops:

I was going to be Sword, my friend would be Shield. 435 was on my RSC name with no real meaning, just added another 5 for RS2. Too bad that friend doesn't play anymore.

Well, my Runescape name is H Rfan, and it stands for homestarrunner fan (I don't know if any of you have heard of homestarrunner, but I shall continue....) but my xbox live/rsbandb name is bad conection, because of my horrible internet connection (Satalite sucks!)

Ranjer · **Posted:** August 12th, 2008, 6:13 pm

Bad spelling of the word Ranger , when I was playing when i accidently spelt my name wrong to Ranjer i found out it was a perfect name for me cause i mostly play an Archer in MMORPS.
