Well in my old clan i was called [M<vis] which was meant to look like a crazy way of spelling Mavis (my work nickname). However everyone called me McVis which was wrong so i changed it to Maniac. At the time when i played way too much CSS i was quite a good shot with the M4 so my name changed once again to M4niac.

The chicken part comes from the habit i used to have of running like a 'M4niac'.....get it? into the enemy killing a few, running out of health and then scarpering off to Tactically Wait Patiently.

Hence M4niachicken was born.

My hotmail account and initial online name is/was Lwoxanna...

People have had trouble pronouncing it, so I shortened it to Loxy and it's stuck. I am so used to people calling me it, that I answer to my proper name or Loxy as well as each other. I've even considered a number plate for my car with some version of Loxy.

Lwoxanna comes from Star Trek.

Laxy doesn't sound as good though. It's just someone who needs the loo all the time.

Fear is my surname.

(And i've heard all the jokes, yes even that one)

I stole mine from a character in a book and a number from another book.

Books are filled with stuff you can steal. Ideas, words, anything really.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Dark Tower?

Originally "Pixie On Speed": This came from when I was in a chemistry lesson, and basically the girl on the other side of the table says to me "woah.. you look really freaky when you do that".. "Its like.. I guess.. a pixie, but like on speed"
"I look like a pixie on speed?"
"Yeeah.."
That stuck for internet stuffs.

And then it evolved into "pixie pie" when I decided I wanted a more fluffeh name, and because I love the pies, pixie pie just.. works.

(I'd like to add, I don't think I look a thing like a pixie, I mean aren't pixies small creatures with pointy ears?*..)

I preferred my spelling of it....but there were various spellings of it on the net, wasn't sure which one was correct, settled on the one I use. Also, I liked the shortened version - 'Loxy'...it worked, end of. At least, if I've spelt it wrong, no-one else can nick it!

true!

I suppose I can hardly comment on mis-spelt names, too

My made up word/name is rarely already taken.

Annoyingly, my mis-spelt name is taken quite regularly.

One day I was signing up to b3ta and thought to myself "What's a username no-one else is likely to have?"

I think I was just really hungry for salmon that day.
Plus, I'd already used all my nicknames (Nancy, Nancy Pants, and Nancy Wombat) about a thousand times, so it was really time for something new.

I think it's safe to say my username has never been taken up on anything
