This is where my username came from XD
I remember the excitement when I opened a random booster pack I had bought when I was like 11 years old and found that inside. It didn't just have one little star in the bottom corner to indicate rarity - it had three! I had no idea what that meant but I jumped around yelling for quite a while!

Has to do with my writing actually. Ages back, before I discovered forums, I wrote a comedy script series about two characters called... Bob and Bill. I just went with them when I joined forums as a penname of sorts I suppose. (Idk why I called myself characters that were dumb, but there you go =p).

The Buick LeSabre, a full size American automobile built from 1959 to 2005. I really like that car, it's comfortable, spacious, and attractive. Perfect for me to base my username off of.
As for the "Elite Overlord" part, I just thought it would sound cool :)

Yoshiko has been a nickname that I came up with years ago, and up until now I've always used it, or variations of it like this one. The three K's are a reference to the sound a frog makes in Japanese, namely kero kero kero.

Curtis Talli is a main OC name in a novel I am writing
This question has come up for me several times before; from others as well as myself.
I cannot remember what inspired it, but I know I've used it as my online alias for a long time.
My main idea is that it was just something that I came up with.
I haven't been able to find any possible source for the name over the internets.
Some people I've met first think that I just threw a Z in-front of America and dropped the A at the end. xD
I get kind of mad when I see accounts on websites that pop-up with Zamerick as their user name.
I don't think I'll ever remember how I came up with this name, but it will always stay with me. :)

My name is one I have had online since I was ten. >__>
When I first played Pokemon, the copy of the game I owned was Pokemon Yellow, so my starter was a Pikachu. I wanted to nickname it, so I picked the name "Pikapal", cuz, you know, I was like 8 at the time. So, when my mom let me sign up on the Supercheats to post some Sims cheats when I was ten, I had to pick a username. SO I went with ol' Pikachu's nickname, but it was taken. xD SO I picked some random numbers and it worked.
Several years later, after I got my first computer, I decided to go back to the site and join their forums. I wanted to create a new account because I thought the name was silly, but I wasn't allowed to, as per the rules at the time. So, I just bucked up and kept it. From there, I just kept the name across the internet so that people would know me if they came across me. It carried me all the way here. ^__^
SO yeah, Pikapal642 is like, more than just a name for me, lol.

marz is my cat. then I capitalized the name. Deimos is one of Marz's moons. then uh I think I went to L'Viaquez or Mayz I can't remember. L'Viaquez was a bomb name, taken from one of the Mars Volta's songs, and Mayz is just a play on Marz made up by Scythekid I think but I really don't know anymore. Then I went to Cex and then I went to Penatrait and now I'm stuck with it.

It comes from my first e-mail address (a Hotmail one, God that was a long time ago)... but I can't remember how I came about having that e-mail address. I might have been watching CatDog, I might have been looking at my cat and dog, something to do with animals... I honestly can't remember. It was such a long time ago, and to say that my memory is a sieve would be to give my memory too much credit. I just don't know.
