our ingame for chaos and quantum was pretty well described by Zerathull... but we also chose it because he is cool, and that he slew zasz...
our ingame on main is different because someone had used Zeratul there... it is the name of a norse god, as we play as asgard...
but since we prefer our ingame for main to remain secret, we wont say which norse god it is... (no use to check list of names of norse gods, as there is something like 30-40 norse gods, and most have more than one way name is spelled...)

Took the name off of a Gateway Commercial 2 guys running with boxes down a hill one guy was talking about his game name on a game he played his name was killtacular. Loved the name . Killing is the name of the game so I thought it fit here.

geisha has been my gaming nick for like 5 million years now... my first love (about 6 million years ago) was Japanese... so I guess that's why I chose that name...

Bazsy is my RL nickname just in RL its writen with an i at the end so: "Bazsi"
BTW "zs" is a standalone letter in hungarian and the pronouncement is similar to the french "j". I couldnt find a similar voice in english tho. So if anyone can i would say a thank you:D

We did have a thread like this, you were right Teal'auc. Although untill this is either moved or it is allowed to stay here I shall post my reason for picking my name.
Its from a SCFI program called Dr.Who.
If anyone really wants to read up on it, here is its Wikki Link

According to IPA, the Hungarian "zs" sound is [ʒ], which is, as you say, the exact same sound as the French "j." It is a voiced postveolar fricative.
In contrast, the English "j" is [dʒ], making it a voiced postveolar affricate. An affricate is a fricative consonant that is preceded by a stop. [d] is a voiced dental stop.
An English equivalent to the Hungarian "zs" is the "s" in "pleasure."
And my name... was what I thought to be a cool name.

Are you ready to face Reality? Hehe.
