Game nicknames

Depends on the name. I've gone by hundreds but I'll narrow it down to the ones you all know.

First up, my gaming life began with "Yoshi277", since at the time of me getting into video games, I had been playing a lot of Mario games and loved the series, especially the character Yoshi. I didn't particularly feel comfortable with the name but I kept it anyway. Later on, my username became BlueDragon115 nd it stayed that way from 2003 - 2010, until it became simply "Rex", which is my real name. People seemed to like that and most people online called me by my real name anyway. It ended up becoming "RexArgonian" due to my love for the Elder Scrolls series, and eventually "RexDragon". This stuck with me for a long time.

Anyway, onto the name you all know and most certainly love.
As a kid, I used to love making up stories and pretending I was some kinda professional writer. I still write stories even now and I have a lot of things flowing through my head. I had a little journal (still have it somewhere) where I'd write stories about some blue dragon called Revanaska. This, of course, is where "Revan The Dragon" came from. At first I didn't feel comfortable with such a name, so I tried out the nicknames I'd given the dragon as a kid. "Rev", "Blue Spark", "Big Blue", "Blue Dragon", none of them really felt comfortable on me. I ended up deciding on just using "Revanaska" as my display name on everything for a long time. Unfortunately people assumed I was a Russian girl or something and I didn't like it too much because of that, but I stuck with it anyway. I had never seen anyone use the name Revanaska before so I just took it and kept it.

It wasn't until about 2012 when someone called me "Revan" when my display name was only Revanaska. He shortened my name to that, and for some reason I really liked it. So I ended up saying, heck, I'll just go with "Revan The Dragon". It seemed kinda unique to me, and I guess it put across the point more that I'm (DEFINITELY) a dragon. And from there onwards, my display names on pretty much everything are "Revan The Dragon", with or without the spaces, depending on the game. The name stuck with me and I can't shake, nor do I really feel the need to.

Though recently I've been switching back to only Revanaska again, due to the obvious amount of mockery I've been getting. Gets to me sometimes. Anyway, that's pretty much my story. Wa-hey.

YOU'RE NOT A FUCKING DRAGON

I played for years as Harry, and I still prefer it to Wist. When I left CoD4 for CS:S, I'd watched some jailbreak videos and thought I'd try a server out, and upon joining got auto-banned for admin impersonation. I have no idea what server auto-banned anyone joining Harry, but I changed my name to the first thing that came to my head - Wist - and it just stuck. I'm not even sure I like the name, but it's part of me now I guess.

No rumour, I was just explaining Jamie's post in more a traditional vernacular.

People like who though? Humans?
