I just revived this thread woohoo!
LOL Congratulations STEEL.
Well when I first got into gaming my tag was Casper, as that is my real life nickname. After some years of gaming FPS it was later changed to Mirage after a national BF2 clan war where I scored +70 kills for less than a dozen deaths in a single round after which the opposing clan leader referenced that shooting at me was like trying to hit a mirage. So Mirage is obvious enough in itself due to the definition of the word.
The 357 originates from the first clan I was ever a part of in fact it was the one that went national, our tag was .357mm surrounded by a roman short sword. So my name in games often comes up as (]:::[Mirage.357mm:::::> Just insert Casper for the earlier version. As not all games allow those characters to be inserted I developed it Mirage.357mm, Mirage357mm, Mirage.357. Finally I left it at Mirage357 because of how many times people decided to try and inform of what I already knew, that a .357 round was not in mm but in fact in inches.
To this day (]:::[Mirage.357mm:::::> is still the name on my steam profile.

In the first match that I played with Ostheer I ordered my Grenadiers to leave a building and they said 'get out of this Luvnest'. Thought it was hilarious and made it my nick name.
Before that my username was... Fritz

You got a problem with that?
Get out of this Lovenest loosely translated would be "Raus aus diesem Liebesnest"

Years ago we had a LAN party and everyone used a nickname. So i needed one too and i took a word we talk about in english classes some days before: Fanatic. Sadly it's also a very common nickname.
Well thats pretty cool actually. The name sounds familiar, did one of your forefathers serve in the Seven Years War?You played CoH1 as well didn't you?
Yes, thats actually true, he is kind of the most famous person in the family
Became close friends with the German Emperor and died in battle

Mine is probably just a boring story, but my account name started when I signed up for PSN back in 07, they wouldn't accepted double "S" so I just did one. When trophies (achievements) came out I was hunting for them to get a high number, which even to this day I like to think I got an impressive number, but due to this I pretty much got attached to the account not wanting to lose them.
The name has grown on me since I use it for everything now. Can't think of anything I wouldn't use it on.
What I do like about it I know it is a unique name. (Don't have to worry about it been taken unlike some other names.

Dict.cc says Lümmel means something like 'little tyke' in english.
In Germany boys are called 'Lümmel' when they are cheeky or when they have done something nasty.

I´m spanish, and here there is an idiom that says something like "fulano y mengano" being "fulano" and "mengano" two real names that we use when talking about actions that doesn´t matter who has performed (those actions)
When I started to play Starcraft online with a mate, I got "fulano" and my mate "mengano"....
then, I used that nickname everytime I played a game online, and while creating a smurf account in COH1, I tunned into "Ful4n0"....that is.
In addition, "fulana" in spain is a synonymous of "bitch", "whore".....so is sooo coool my nickname xD.
Excuse my bad english (studying to improve it as much as I can).

I used the SittingDuck nickname back when I played a lot of CoD4. Of course, SittingDuck wasn't very original, but CoD4 didn't care about duplicate names, so I could take it anyway. When I later wanted to use the name for other accounts I couldn't use it however, cause it was pretty much always already taken. So I ended up trying several things with Duck in them (such as RubberDuckyNL in XboX Live), including the Dutch translation Eend. For CoH I just prefixed Cpt with Eend, just because I get to command stuff in CoH, and as such I deserve a military title Kappa
