Initials and birthday backwards, came up with it when I first started going online during the AOL days, just stuck with it. I'd like to come up with a new, short one, but all my PS3, Live, Steam ID's are the same.

Back in the day I used to play Phantasy Star Online, and made my first character a female robot, which in PSO terms was called a Caseal, and since then I stylised the name into the unique monker Qasiel. It also grinds my gears a little when people put a "U" in there! ("Quasiel")

I also usually put the prefix of "Captain" in front of it, as it's a nickname my friends gave me some time ago eg;

Some college buddies of mine formed a production group called Ignant Noize.

So, I just picked a name that went with that theme.

When first getting into online gaming on 360 in the COD4 era, despite loving the game I was so turned off by the racist teenager faction that it soured me on the entire experience. After taking a break for a while I vowed to not let them win and returned to battle the forces of juvenile ignorance with a gamertag change that reflected my actual age.

Gigi La Trottola's original japanese name is Dash Kappei, always used this nn since the early '90s although I was DAM in the arcades. Anyway, I LOVED the anime back in the 80s, I'm kinda short (174cm), I'm amazing at sports and I'm pretty successful with the ladies and also think of white panties all day :P
...oh wait, maybe scratch the latter. Either way, it fitted!

Raoh

The eldest of the four Hokuto brothers, Raoh is a conqueror who takes the mantle of Ken-oh or 'Fist King'.

Raoh trained under Ryuken along with Toki and Kenshiro, as well as another student named Jagi. In spite of his ambitions to become the greatest martial artist in the world, Raoh lost the rights to the Hokuto Shinken succession to Kenshiro. Refusing to give up the style, Raoh killed his sifu Ryuken in combat and leaves to become the savior of the world.

Before that, I used to play CS for years using "Joe" (not my name,) but this is my only real gaming handle.

My friends and I used to be REALLY annoying to people. We made it a sport. And we were professionals. This was about the time WWF No Mercy came out and it blew me and my WWF Attitude away. Especially the character creator and the Gameshark hacks. We actually got the Hardy Boyz in the game and their Poetry in Motion in the game. Anyways, I had decided to call my character Spazz, because of it's base word, Spaz.

I use Spazz as my Tag for Art and such, but for Forums and Digital tags, I usually go with Spazznid, or Godspazz (I'm a bit narcissistic...)

If I play a female toon in a game, I'll usually go with the tag Quinne, Agent DarkBootie, Grianne, or Apnea (not for the sleep disorder, it's a guilty secret >_>)

I've gone by other tags/handles in the past. None of them ever stuck, and most of them sounded pretty stupid in retrospect. One day a friend of mine suggested this one and it stuck. I like it.
