Where did your forum name come from?

Couldn't find this thread already so I thought I would start it since there are a few people who I'm curious as to where their names came from (@Tcoat, @humfrz)

Tectoniic is from back in my MLG Halo 3 days. Someone already had it with 1 i so I just used 2, it was sort of a thing at the time for people to use double i or x to replace a character. I liked how it sounded and gradually used it for other things. It has now become so ingrained with me online that I don't think I can ever use anything else.

If you have a cool/interesting reason for your name lets hear it. If your forum name is FRSHELLAJDMSWAGFLUSH I'm pretty sure we already figured it out although I kind of want that name ironically now.

EDIT: Thanks Ichitaka for posting the original name thread. It cleared up a lot of username questions lol http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1399

Well looking back through that thread many (most?) of those people are not even active anymore anyway.

First initial and part of last name.
When I first signed up on the forum I just wanted a quick name in case I had any questions so didn't get creative.
Ironically my thought at the time was "No need to get fancy it's not like I ever plan on posting anything"

You could change this to a thread about what people's signature means (the deal under their forum name)

Well, OK, @Tectoniic, now that you ask.

"humfrz" is a phonetic spelling of my last name "Humphreys".

It was designed by mrs humfrz; ..... she made it simple, so I could remember it ....

Cuz it's on different server (older server), so it won't come up easily. Best way to search is go to google and search whatever you're looking for and after that add "FT86Club"

User name is from a ferocious cruel evil creature for my favorite movie of all time. The user name was misspell due to me being an idiot.

I just went and read the entire original thread so I did see yours but i did just realize that the characters in your signature are modeled after the FRS/BRZ....I can't tell you how many times I've looked at your signature without seeing it.

Not sure if I posted already in the other thread or not...

"Special" because my mom always said I was quite special (for better or worse).
"K" because that's my first initial.

And the about me is to honor Key & Peele's final season.
