well, mine aint too difficult, it's just my own name.

But i can tell how i came on the other spam accounts in here:

goliath77: It started off with wanting a new e-mail @ msn. I wanted goliath in it so i entered that. Since that was already taken i'd looked into the given options and one of them was goliath77. I used that and a nickname was later born.

Goliath100: all in spammer periods, I just wanted to know is wws and all members were stupid enough to not catch me if having more accounts. So i just tryed out an account goliath100 and it worked.

After that, it was ban [;)]

Wouldnt that be a nifty username PumpMeUp? So thats how it started, and for all you guys asking, no I wasnt giving my self pleasure at the time...this is for all you pervs. [lol] **cough**coolbeans**cough**

my last name is Gould, all my male friends call me Gould, all my female friends call me Gouldy and well a couple of my female friends were with me when I signed up, I probably would have put my name as just Gould if I had been on my own when I signed up. I sign all my art and stuff with just 'Gould' in the bottom corner, so yeah, blame the girls [lol]

nothing fancy with me... just my initials.

Charlie J. Dreblow
C J D

Of course, I also go by the name "cheetaking" on lots of other sites. My nickname at the poker tables is "the cheetah" because of how aggressive my game style is, so go figure.

cjd, do you play party poker, because i think i've played you.

Mine is really just a little extension of my name because carl@hotmail.com was taken. My email address also has a number, but i can't remember what it meant. Carlosio is just taken from that, and i use on every site i join.

I played on PartyPoker about a year ago, when I was playing at the freeroll tables, but now I mostly play on PokerStars and in local live tournaments. But, yes, I did used to play on Party... I just haven't played there in almost 8 months.

Well mine has a long story behind it so here i go...

Long ago when i was 6 i got my first computer and my first aol account and since a was playing ultimate ride all the time (i am now retired from that) i heard Rollergod all the time cuase thats what your called when you beat the game! so i wanted to name myself "Rollergod" but it was taken and it said for me to choose from "Rollergod101-Rollergod123-Rollergod142-etc..." but i wanted to be original so i just put a second "R" in front of it so it was then "RRollergod" and all my friends asked why RRollergod and i didn't have an answer till last year at the school roller skating party (i use blades) and everyone wanted to race and a i kept winning so now the double R's stand for "Roller skating & Roller coasters/Rollergod!"

I didn't, friend came up with my original SN for a yahoo freemail account, and when I was creating this I couldn't think of any names so I just used "thecool326" and then later WWS came up with the new nick cool beans, and now its that.
