While some people's usernames would seem to have obvious meaning, some do not, and it would also be interesting to know how you came up with your username.

I'll start off. My username is a cross between my name, Dan, and the word damage, and is pronounced like it, except the 'm' is pronounced as an 'n', and spelt Danage.

I needed something different when playing computer games (most offline, partly because many online games require people to speak and I have difficulty understanding what they say as I am Partially Deaf), so I made up the username I use now.

I've used the name Danage for a long time, and if it is already taken I go for a back-up, Tyford, pronounced ty-fud, which means in a foreign language of my invention, Glen, as in valley. The backup I rarely use though.

My username "Oguzhan", (original version "Oguz Kaghan") means "The King of the Oguz tribe" The Oguz tribe is the early descent of the Turks. My father was a bit nationalist for this reason he gave historical names for his childs. My surname "Kara" means "Black" but was shortened from the word "Karahasanogullari" means "Sons of Black Hasan" My grandfather immigrated from Trabzon which is a city in the north of Turkey, sided near the black sea and is close to Georgia. Our family are mostly living in Kocaeli, which became famous worldwide with the earthquake in 1999. I and my wife are living in Istanbul.

Your username is Oguzhan? I thought that was your name?
