A few years ago, I chose the name Xenon as my screen name for another board that I joined (one where I am now one of the moderators). I chose it because "Xenon" because it is from a Greek word meaning "strange", and because I like the letter X. I now use Xenon on the handful of boards I frequent.

I've said it five times before, but it goes like this:

My story needed a name. Koise, Booger and Zoe started to get long, so I wanted an acronym for convenience.Thus, I chose KBABZ, as such:

Koise
Booger
Aiko
Bob
Zoe

I used the name on GameFAQs. After I got banned there (I didn't know about censor by-passes, gimme a break!), I went to WP out of need of something to take up my afternoon (came across it on Wikipedia earlier), and re-used the name for consitency. Anyone who spell my username right gets an award for each correct spelling!

Do any of your FAQs still exist at GameFAQs, KBABZ?

Korppi means "raven" in Finnish. Raven is a kind of "totem animal" for me, although I don't have any religion. Ravens just are indefinitely cool in my opinion.
