Well how did you come by your current internet alias and why do you have it? A historical background of other names might also be intresting ^^
ordered more or less chronologically
blackbird20
came from my love of the color black and speed. It reminded me both of the stealth airplane and the raven-like bird.
since this was my runescape account it stayed very long with me
The Dawntreader
came from C.S. Lewis voyage of the Dawntreader. awesome name that is
fishmesser
spawn from a LAN where everyone decided to give themselves kitchen utensil names. translated it means "fish-knife"
The Patriarch
came from the quintology of Rhapsody. just sounded very grandfatherly and wise or powerful
The Arcan
Comes from the Rome total war series. The arcans are an elite roman unit who can hide anywhere, are fast, have alot of endurance and definetly pack a punch.
Since my current tactic in CSS is usually to outflank, sneak from behind and knife my way through the enemy who is hopefully bogged down blasting my teammates this name seemed very fitting.
The Arcan and blackbird20 were my most heavily used names whereas the patriarch and dawntreader phase were relatively short.
I dunno why i like putting a "the" infront of my name. Just sounds more mysterious i suppose 0-o
