It was my login name for the school computers. It was the first letter of your first name and the first 4 letters of your surname. I really couldn't think of anything better at the time.

The 911 part is just because I like how the numbers roll off the tongue.

Zerg is my favorite race/faction to play with in Starcraft and my real name is Adam. The Zerg/Human hybrids were known as Infested "X" so simply together I got InfestedAdam.

My first and previous GameFAQ username was DeathDurron. "Death" from a semi dark/emo/Goth phase and "Durron" from one of my favorite Star Wars characters at the time, Kyp Durron.

Waaaay back in the 90's before most of you were probably born, there was a thing called bulliton boards or bbs's. They were like the precursor to the internet. I snagged the name wolfy on mine (Phospher I think it was called...something like that), but later when I logged into the first ever mud (Batmud..believe it was out of Sweeden), someone had already taken the name!!!

So I added 42 on the end (from hitchkers guide) and that is how my user name was created.

It might have even been the late 80's actually, kinda hard to remember that far back, but if so it was the very late 80's.

Wanted a pseudo-Chinese name that could be corrupted into "Shadow", as it was supposed to be a throwaway ID for limited use. Turns out, I ended up keeping it, and people get weirded out when I speak, and they expect Chinese, and get Radio Announcer instead.

It's my last name with a extra w at the start because winterj was taken and the first initial of my first name. The 25 is the day I was born on. I made the name "wwinterj" years ago and just stuck with it although due to requirements it's always had some kind of variation such as numbers or letters added to each end.

I was in the high school orchestra when I made my account. We had a piece called El Toro and I thought it sounded cool but a little too Spanish for a non-Spanish person so I went with the i cause I made my account on an iPod Touch

86 is a reference to a Green Day song

I got my horse named Ghost when I was a kid. Kept him until he was old. He slipped on the snow and broke his pelvis. He had to be put down.

I had been a lurker on Gamefaqs until that evening. I guess I needed a distraction so I decided to join ( probably a dumb choice). I sat at the computer trying to think of a user name but my mind kept going back to Ghost being dead.

So...there is where it came from.
