What did you name YOURSELF and why?
TimTim LaBaguette:
My real name is Timothée ( which is French for Timothy )
I have many nicknames, one of them being TimTim Killah ( my "fake" rapper identity ;) )
Coming into this game and from what I had seen of it, I felt like I needed a name that would not fit a character in the GOIO universe. I kept TimTim because at that moment I was pretty used to being called that way, and I liked the sound of it.
Then I wanted to add a ridiculously French last name, because I knew I was stepping in an international community, and wanted to be easily identified as French. Baguette was the first thing that came to my mind, obviously. I thought about "De LaBaguette" but I preferred the flow of TimTim LaBaguette.
Otherwise my other internet usernames are usually names I use for RolePlaying. I always have names starting with a T ( just like my real name, and I like this letter <3 ), except my current steam name which is Coq1. It's a little play on word, with Coq meaning rooster and Coq1 being pronounced the same way as coquin which means kinky, naughty, saucy... It's a word I used a lot in these past 3 years and which I still use quite often.

Oh god...if I had to go that far back.....
All the flak I got for having the user name "DragonSkinner" because I was either anti-dragons...or didn't have dragons in that profile.
Technically, that is still my username, well at least "Dragon" is....but because of Neopets, I don't use him often...

Barreltroll:
Mine comes from a Warcraft character I created during the Cataclysm expansion. I returned to the game after a 3 year hiatus whilst at University, and I was quite excited to see the new race/class combinations. After maining a tauren Paladin called Demopan for a while (also, I'm a huge tf2 fan), I finally decided to create a troll/druid.
I was really stuck on a name, I spend a lot of time coming up with one that I'm happy with and refuse to use accents above letters. I did a bit of thinking and wanted something to do with my love for nerdy internet memes. "do a barrel roll" has always been a joke I enjoyed, I'm a big fan of Lylat Wars for the n64. After staring at this nameless troll for a while it suddenly clicked and Barreltroll was born.
Charon:
Charon. It's my current callsign.
RethBurn:
So uhh. Originating my name it originally came from my Hunter in World of Warcraft called Retharon, Reth was taken from the kalimag word for "Burn", and I kinda liked the idea that a name had some concept being build on. When I finally moved to Guns Of Icarus Online, I figured Retharon would sound weird and out of place, so I modified to to be RethBurn. It was simple, then I slammed a Cappin' on it.
..Then I realised 80% of the community is called Captain, so I threw that out again.
