As for the Moskovitz part, it's named after the protagonist of one of my favorite movies back when I was a kid; Fievel Mousekowitz from the movie An American Tail. I changed the last name a bit here and there to make it seem less cartoony and more real. I'm pretty sure that last name exists.

W00t, and I thought that was your real name as your username...and I'm sure I'm not the only one who thought of my hypothosis.

When you're wrong, you're very wrong!

Ah the name thread... I've seen this in many shapes and forms thats a fact... Hell I started one myself... back in the day...

Well I got the name Skid from skid-row. No not the band. Skid-row... or is it skidrow or skid row?

Bah. Anyway, its a very very poor street where hobos live in cardboard boxes and its basically a slum. Now when I first got online my Dad made a username on MSN Gaming Zone and used Skidrow321 as the username, because the cost of the computer put us on skidrow...

In other words the name came from my Dad who made a spur of the moment name.

When I moved onto online gaming I shortened it to Skid because I was pretty sick of people messaging me about the band. And here I am now!



I have another alias, Dist, that one simply came from a MUD game's random name generator. :lol:

Pineapples = my favorite fruit (When I was 13, when I first came to RRN.)

Too many pineapples + hyperactive, young me = MY NEW NAME!!

And to be creative, I capitalized the "A". ZOMG!!!11

At one point in my life i got really interested in Dragons... loved the look of them the attitude, the fire-breath, the impressive wing span... And then while i was still in my kick of Dragons i got into a kick of Chinese Astrology... and my chinese astrological sign... was.... well... the Dragon...

So everything just sorta fell into place for it for me.

Storms brewed in the grey sky, lightning struck and mighty winds roared. Rain bombarded the earth in massive sheets, and a booming voice beckoned me to scale the highest mountain. When I reached its mighty peak, I drew my sword and raised it to the heavens, lightning struck my blade as the mighty voices bellowed...

"WE ARE THE METAL GODS, FROM HENCEFORTH YOU SHALL BE KNOWN AS THRASH: DEFENDER OF ALL THAT IS METAL AND KICK ASS. YOU SHALL SLAY ALL POSEURS THAT STAND AGAINST YOU UNTIL THE DAY YOU REACH THE GOLDEN GATES OF VALHALLA."

Something along those lines.

well...i guess when we think what your Nom de Ruff is based on...we're not 100 percent correct all of the time.

My previous name was a temporary name I use for forums (don't ask) anyway... DarkGunn...

Two years ago I used to be a very big fan of the film Aliens, my favourite weapon in the film was the "Smartgun" so my nickname was "Smartgunner". Then I grew out of the film and got more into Star wars because I thought the dark side idea was pretty cool plus I preferred dark side to the light side.
"Darksmartgunner" to me was way too long, so I got rid of "Smart" and "er" and well that’s how "DarkGunn" was born
