What does your username mean, and how did you pick it?

Prototype - Flipped open a dictionary and put my finger on it.

Meaning: Not quite the full shilling.

It's part of a Queensryche album name. To be honest I want to change it.

Banjo - The Banjo is the greatest creation in the history of mankind. That is why.

To me it means strawberry float Yeah, Banjo.

Mine's an evolution of lots of usernames I had on GR...simplified.

I was getting bored with my old name (TheRotArm) so I picked this on a whim when I joined Wakinglimb. I like it.

Mine is an abbreviation of May Contain Nuts. I can't remember why I chose it.

I used it in an MMORPG back in like 1998 and stuck with it ever since.

I didn't like HumourousName and I was watching chuck at the time

Well...I think there was a thread on what other username would you have had on GR a few years ago, I went for 'May Contain Nuts'...I think you chose it soon after. Might not be that though, might be a coincidence.

A Mighty Boosh character, spelt incorrectly

It's a popular phrase in this part of the country so I just put the three words together.

Corazon de Leon

I always liked Corazon de Leon when I saw the moniker on Wikipedia, means literally Heart of a Lion, Lionheart. I'm using deadpool at the moment, after the legendary character.

This scenario could have ended alot worse.

Mine's my nickname and my 'lucky' number, use it for everything really.

Its a name I started using when I started playing Wolfenstein Enemy Territory online.

It comes from a crash which causes the OS or the application to terminate, as seen on the BSOD.

I don't think that was it. I remember being sick of my previous name, which was False Sense Of Insecurity, as it was, well, shite. I was mainly on SniperMonkey/Gamufi back then.

As I grew up ironically I know have a view most people don't, that's all that was in my mind when signing up here, so I choose Lucien from Fable 2 [since I couldn't think of anything else] as he was the prime example of a bad guy who I felt for more than the good guy.

I thought it might have been a Fable II reference!

Raydjehead song.

I had to choose a name to play Subspace and it was between this or, I think, Starscream.

Should have gone with Starscream.
