My name is the name of my old dog Beaux. Sadly, he passed away the October before last... It is pronounced "Bo", not "Bowx", or "Be-a-ux".

My name came from a trip to the zoo.
I was in the kiddie area watching my brother run around freaking out. My parents, who are both pretty smart and think they're comedians or something, said, "Look at all those North American Yard Monkeys! Where's a clipboard?"
The name grew from there. At first I was a Common North American Yard Monkey, then a similarly epthited Den Monkey, then finally the North American Geek Monkey. I've just added title length because I felt like it.
And I am the 42nd. I didn't come up with any of this.

Ah, I remember that story.

You know, this thread is only going to have 50-something posts.

Even though its life is limited, it serves a good purpose, though.

Good point.

You must have been really bored.

We're always really bored in the Padded Room, Thobe.

My username, Legs250, came from when I was about 8 and was joining the Lego website. I didn't want to be 'Lego250', so I typed in 'Legs250'. And the username has just stuck since.

Oh, and its pronounced 'legs-two-five-oh'. Not 'legs-two-fifty'.

Okay. Sounds random.

Kinda like me.

Let me see...

Okay. Have fun with that.

My username was random (Rockyboy).
I bet the People from Spore University remember.
FlameFace was random too!

Of course we do.
Not.

Rockyboy said (on the Uni) the many 5's were do to a glitch. (If I recall)

Yes.

I got the name ghostofillusion.

I was very interested in optical illusions and I think there was one with a ghost in it or something...

I just wanted the name to be evil. If I hadn't choen this, I would have chosen ModulisticDemonofTerror.

I'm glad you picked ghostofillusion, ghost.

I found a bunch of other userbames too:
EnternallyReigning
Kunkuro101
ghostX01X

I love hawks and 2000 is awesome

I created off the top of my head 11 years ago for Star Trek Online.

Cool

I was thinking of bullet bills (you know, the bullet guys from Mario) at the time. I didn't like the name bullet bill, so I thought it sounded cooler "banzai bill". But that was taken or something like that, so I added 96 to the end. On the sporum I was always called banzai, so I chose that name here.

BAANNNNNNNNNNNZZAAAAAAAIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!

Banzai bills are real Mario characters. They are the huge versions of bullet bills
