    How did you come up with your username? Does it mean anything, or did you just pick a random word?

    I just got my name (Lee), combined it with my favourite colour (turquoise), resulting in Leequoise, and then I just messed with the spelling to get Leequoiz. I thought about spelling it Leekoyz, but I didn't like that.

    Required a better name than my former one and just thought that Hawk was much better than said former username.

    I'd like minuteforce to answer this questions, though...

    I don't remember how long this was exactly, but wayyy back, I took up "minuteman" as a username on several message boards, including the LPMB. But, one day, some clown was all, "lololol r u rly a minuteman? lol", and I believe that's what prompted me to switch it up a little.

    I don't visit the LPMB anymore.

    Ernie Ball guitars strings use to be my string of choice. 003 because of the Bond influence, but I prefer 3 over 7.

    I could get the username changed, but meh.

    My name is a strange way of pronouncing "Creed". It was an inside joke between me and my friend.

    It's my name, in general. V is first name, Dale is middle name, and M is my last name. Otay?

    I made up my old nickname (feelthless) by changing the spelling of Faithless. I was using it since i was 9.

    My current username is my middle name, with double f in the end instead of "v".

    Well. Here we are. My first username was "Hybrid SoIdier." I got that from my old gamertag on Xbox Live. My older Xbox Live tag before "Hybrid SoIdier" was "Hybrid Dialect." I've had Xbox Live for a little over 8? years now. While playing, my friends online would call me "Hybrid" during games. So, I've adopted that here since I consider you guys my friends. :)

    My first username was LinkinPark0394, which was also my Youtube username (awful, I know). Then, I decided to choose a more fitting username. And a more thoughtful one at that. With that said, after some thinking, I came up with Decay.

    Decay comes from D.K., which is basically the abbreviation of my familyname. Decay turned out to be an English word, so it was an easy choice. I also use the name for my music.

    It's my middle name. Andreina is female version of "Andrew" (Or Andrés in my language) and a variation of Andrea.

    My previous nickname though, which I use everywhere, it's "E" for my 1st name, "D" for my surname "F" still my 1st surname (composite) + LINKIN + P(ark).
