Great idea for a thread! I tend to wonder on some of the more curious names sometimes, otherwise I find a bit of enjoyment seeing names that I "get the joke" of, or understand its possible origin. Fun stuff! Here's mine:

Forum is same as Origin/BF3, so here it goes: BrujahSulik; or Brujah Sulik as two separate names.

Sulik is a NPC from Fallout 2. You can hear and see him here on YouTube. Without the video, he's a "tribal" man your character runs into near to where the character begins his journey. He was a good hand in combat, and I thoroughly enjoyed hearing his musings when spoken to about various other NPCs and in various locations. Good times.

Brujah is a clan of vampire from the White Wolf Game Studio's lore in book and roleplaying environs. This is what Wikipedia has to say on the Brujah clan. I only ever decided on this because I played Vampire The Masquerade: Redemption some short time after I had been exposed to Fallout 2, and so the game captivated me as Fallout 2 did, and so did a lot of the story behind WW's imagining of vampires and their history. In the game your character's only "choice" of clan is Brujah, and so you play out the rest of the game under that clan moniker. The clan is known for violence, homicidal tendencies, and in historical times, they were regarded as "warrior philosophers", to add an air of sophistication to the mix.

Typically, Sulik is taken, and from time to time Brujah is taken in games that secure usernames, so I add the two up and run with that, I'm guaranteed the name every time I've tried so far. Hope you enjoyed!

elchino7: most of my friends nickname me "Chino" (as me being descendent from :asians:) This is my most common nick to register with.
Chukonoku: ingame nick. Resembles to a little special troop from the game Age of empires II. The -Chukonu´s of Elite- where the special force the Chinese civilization had. They spammed a lot of bolts with their automatic/repetitive crossbow.
Regards of playing random i frequently was playing with Asian civilizations (Persians-Huns-Chinese).

If Chukonu´s is the real name... why the change at the end?? Simple, i was always wrong but in my head that soldiers where called like that. When i check my mistake i wouldnt change it as i liked how it sound Besides i will never have problems of getting a coincidence nick with someone else

My playername is in fact or sort of a description of my profession. I firts tried dirtydigger but it was taken so it became arch(as i really)dirty digger. I'm an arcaeologist - digger - and I don't mind getting dirty while digging.

My nick (same in forum & bf3), is a combination of two nicks/accounts I had back in the days when I played Artifact. I had several freeman accounts there, until I settled for Zebra. However... when my battlefield days started, that nick wasn't available so I just combined my favourite two nicks from Artifact, hence ZebraPeps. Also, when younger - looong time ago... yup, I'm an old fart:) I was sometimes called Peps by some of my friends

When I was a kid I dreamt to be an archaeologist, loved dinosaurs, well still do and history in general. Now, I just don't want to get dirty

Mine was from Death Note. For many its probably a sick anime show. But for me, it was enjoyable, alot.
And for those wondering what Death Note is, here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_Note

David Fischer -> DaFi
DaFi -> dEAfi
because it was the EA Download Manager when I made my account and DaFi wasnt available anymore...
Didnt feel like changing it when it became Origin and your Soldiers name.

Also used BAUM (Tree in german) for a while, to kinda do the opposite of all those xXLeet5nip0rzXx, but that is a long time ago.

Actually my real nickname, the one everyone uses expect maybe my mother and father is "Sciabola" or, abbreviated, "Scia'". Now, that's the italian word for "Sabre", and it's kind of like a family thing, because everyone called my Grandfather that way (Well not in Italian, in our local dialect), everyone knows my father and uncle as "Sciabulitto"'s (The dialect version) sons, and I inherited it too. But pronouncing it is hard for English speakers, so I use BotoloLover in english communities 'cause Botolo is simpler, and my dog's name was Botolo. Still, if you can manage, it'd be awesome to hear people from like 30 different nationalities trying to say a word like "Sciabola" or better, "Sciabulitto".

I started to use the nich sushi in the mid-nineties to chat in one of the online mailboxes CUBEnet here in Munich. These guys used to meet for reallife-parties and stuff and offcause we were all l33t and called us with our online-nicknames. When I started onlinegaming I stuck with the name.

Mi original nickname was St. Jimmy. It comes from the Green Day song with that name and the character called like that in that Green Day's album. But there are 9684684684 people with that nick so I change it to Jimmy and added _ARG because I'm Argentinian and we sometimes add our nationality to recognize ourselves in foreign servers.
