I can't be the only one curious about people's username origins, right? So let's explain ours.
I've been using this username since I downloaded a game called WolfQuest back in '09.

This is the first time I've used this username. I knew I was going to be making a lawful character, and I had already done name research for a recent D&D paladin of mine so I chose his last name.
Lamont means 'law man'. Such surprise! XD

I use a couple of variations, but when first trying to figure out a name for a site, I knew would be a more permanent place for me, I sat down and thought seriously about it. I wanted a number to go together with a part of my name.
The 'first' of everything is usually brilliant, but I won't be the first with much this day and age, and I don't really want to, 'cause it's hit or miss. The 'second' is usually rather dull, and under the curse of always trying to live up to 'first'. Lastly, the 'third', has the opportunity to learn from 'first' and 'second' both, and is free to go whichever way it pleases. Thus, I ended up choosing 'the third' option, and variations of third have been my choice ever since.

I used to join alot of proboards sites but went by the name Blaze, but i figured i should go by a Trainer name XD So i went with Rane since it was a sort of nickname for me in elementary school by my best friends. (we had a alter-ego club going on lol)

I originally used my username on the old US Club Nintendo forums years ago. It is a shame Nintendo killed that off ages ago and then I used the same on many different sites afterwards. I believe my mom came up with the idea since I was born in March and it just kinda stuck. I cannot even remember how many years ago it was when I first used Marchbaby was my username I would have to look up when they closed the Club Nintendo forums to get a rough idea but it was at least 8-10 years ago.

Tarlar was a name I chose back in school because other had gamer names, and I wanted on too I just think that I tried to find a name that I liked, but from where I got the idea, I don't know. I often linked it with Solfalk (=sunhawk), which came from that I dreamed that someone called me falk (=hawk) and then wanted to combine it with something. As I'm more a day/light person than a night/dark one, I chose sol(sun).

Mine's SUPER ORIGINAL with it being plain ol' Joey. To be honest, that's exclusive for this place.
Other places I frequent I either go by RevolverJesus or Ruler Mr.H. RevolverJesus stems from a fan nickname that was given to an antagonist in Persona 3 BUUUUUT I do tend to have some skill with revolvers in games so it stuck.
RulerMr.H was an attempted to establish something different. My surname begins with a H and it's also a nod to a song by the same name by the heavy metal band Grave Digger.
There's some real old stuff too going far back but they weren't anything fancy. Just video game characters I enjoyed at the time e.g. Saturos, Ramirez, Kefka etc
