Essentially, I want us to sound like cavemen.

I'll start:

HomesliceAbe was playing Mario kart and HomesliceAbe's dad couldn't think of name of one of courses (HomesliceAbe thinks name was "Moonview Highway?). HomesliceAbe's dad called course "Homeslice Highway" and HomesliceAbe thought new name was hilarious. Also, HomesliceAbe is big fan of Abraham Lincoln.

Name is Brent, pals screwing around. Pal takes Mr. Krabs quote, "sponge boy bob", puts name in, "brent boy bob." Abbreviates to bbmb, "m" is pronoun.

IRC nicks were max'd at 8 characters and listed alphabetically. Given that dogs are no-go!, to choose name that made full use was simple.

Edit: See some fails in this thread.

Need character name. Smash keyboard. Consider smashed letters. Move letters, add vowels, make name.

Five year later games no like 10+ character names (monster hunter freedom, thanks psp) . Start using Coskii. LGS people use game name. Game name sticks. Now use everywhere.

spaysi sound almost like spaysi real name, and was nickname when spaysi was little kid… sometimes was called spaysi as mean teasing name, but spaysi take the name and make it own so can’t be used as mean name calling anymore
