Why is your Poker name.....your poker name?

[mozart5]

dominoman007 is my name on tilt and stars. i came up with it when i first started playing. i am james bond fan and domino was the bond girl in thunderball. most think it has something to do with pizza, but thats not the case. mozart5 was a poker name i started using on newer sites that i joined. i was getting tired of the pizza references. they don't bother me anymore though. that one is because i love music and simply mozart was taken but mozart5 was not. thats about it. i also have a fantasy football team by the name of "Wolfgangs Puppets". 2-0 so far.

 

[andres_arg]

mine is pretty simple.. Andrés is my name, and arg because im from argentina.

 

[MrMuckets]

I think my name here is one site only. I usually go by the nome de plume of klitkat at most other sites. It's a combo of the two things that I like the most.

Me too. As for MrMuckets it's my grandfathers fault. I explained it all in another thread about eight months ago.

 

[popovich9008]

Popovich9008 - my last name is Popovich... born in 1990, graduated in 2008

 

[icemonkey9]

I play ice hockey and my coach was a 'Nam vet who was off his rocker. We were playing and I checked the hell out of some poor bastard, and our coach stopped the game (it was a practice) and said to everyone that I checked like a horny monkey. Nobody knew if that was a compliment, but most people think it was. So i just kept icemonkey9 (9 is my number) for stuff like Xbox live, etc and just kept it for poker.

 

[xXShannonAXx]

my ft and pokerstars name is xXShannonAXx basically just my name with cool looking xxs lol

 

[Latvian Queen]

My poker name is Latvian Queen....Latvian of course for my nationality and Queen, because my hubby calls me his queen all the time. So he is actually the one who created my first poker site name and I stuck with it.

 

[Mehman]

[feitr]

um was from a computer game back when i could justify playing them as not a complete and utter waste of time. My normal online "nickname" was already used, so i just randomly typed some letters with my left hand because i couldn't be bothered trying to choose another and voila....feitr. I decided to use it for poker for the same reason...nobody else is going to have it so it saved trying to make lame variations on my other nickname.

 

[Boeggs]

Abbreviation of my last name. It's what my friends always called me so I figured when I finally win the Main event at the wsop they would know who it is, lmao.

 

[deadhxc]

Mine comes from my name on diablo 2. I only played the hardcore version of the game (where when you die you have to start over and lose everything)
and I always ended up dying so much everyone called me dead and I am partial to hardcore music (and hardcore version of the game) thats where the hXc came from. It has just stuck around with me.

 

[youzeaflea22]

I was listening to Snoop Dog way back when and I kept choosing screenames that were taken. The I heard Snoop say "Youzeaflea, and I'm the big dawg. I'll scrach you off my ballz with my mother fn pawz". I have never had trouble with anyone taking my screename since.

 

[z28_RoadRage]

My original name was BigGuyZ28. My nephew Billy who was 6'2" always called me BigGuy as I'm only 5'7", so when he passed away, I always used this.

Then I had to change my name due to certain reasons so Billy's brother came up with Z28_RoadRage as I do drive a Camaro and have a lot of rage on the road.

 

[PuffinNugs420]

Name

I chose my name from the time and money that ive put into smoking kind bud aka nuggets.
