Well I know that almost all Spanish people have 2 first names and 2 last names, as well as some French people (more rare). Here it's more 1 or more first names and 1 or 2 last names. Personally I have one first name and 2 last names, plus a never used first name only found on my birth certificate or the like.

I like profile names because you come up with them yourself. They can either be really cool or just dumb.

I came up with my profile name, "Compynerd255", when I created an account on Wikipedia (dumb students at my school caused non-registered users there to be blocked). I thought the name fit me quite nicely, and was rather unique. I put 255 at the end to keep from having "Compynerd" already taken, and I knew it was a number I could easily remember. So, I use this account for everything.

And it's really important to come up with good, permanent profile names. My younger siblings have lost several user accounts on MMOs simply because they forgot their usernames and passwords.

So I read the first page, and I realized something: Freyaday is not a masculine name.

Well... My username has no story. It has two meanings. One that was meant and the other that just happened to be. It was mostly a (very bad) joke between my friend and I... So I got JKAG... Joking Apps and Games. I just used it here. And kinda wish I hadn't used it because I have other better nicknames.
One is Kilmar. Kilmar is a character in a comic I made in 7th grade and then I formed Kilmar Games when I started programming (in Game Maker) and then Kilmar Entertainment when I changed my focuses to more general things. Like a South Park like cartoon (which never happened) and applications and not JUST games.
Then I just decided XVicarious because "vicarious" is one of my favorite words which means to do something through another. Like a parent living vicariously though their child to experience a better childhood through their own children. And I like the letter "X" and it makes it sound cooler.

I now own the domain XVicario.us (clever because I made use of the .us domain extension ;D)
