Some people on here seem to have fairly interesting usernames that make no apparent sense. Obviously some of them are used for other accounts as well so there must be a reason for it..
Just thought it'd be interesting to see if there is some background info on the meanings behind them. Obviously if its a ninja-style private reason, maybe just write private?
BTW, dunno if this'd be General or off-topic. I cant really distinguish between the two
Geren ... Private

I was a nerd of World of warcraft, one of the first people in the world to sign up, got the username frost cause i wasnt smart enough to think of something and kept that eversince. Frost has nothing to do with my name or personallity at all.

Lol for ages I never read your username properly and thought it was needforspeed. Figured you were just a fan of the game. Then I noticed it was actually fordspeed, and thought it was a play on words. Turns out the real reason is a lot simpler
