What Are the Origins Behind Your GT?
long ago in a galaxy far, far away there was a thread for other CAG members to explain what the meaning was behind each persons Gamertag. there are a lot of new people in CAG now so i figured instead of resurrecting an old thread why not just start a fresh one, right? so that being written, i'll go first.
mine is simply a song by a Florida Death Metal band known as Deicide. i'm not necessarily a huge fan but i do enjoy passive trolling. i had to add the '13' because someone else had BlameItOnGod, go figure. i came up with a far better GT shortly thereafter, Creeping Deth. for anyone who is not a fan of 80's thrash metal, Creeping Death is an amazing song by Metallica. however i would have spelled Death 'deth' as an ode for the "feud" throughout the 80's and 90's between Metallica and former Metallica lead guitar/songwriter/composer Dave Mustaine, currently of Megadeth. at this point both parties finally came to their senses and have since toured together. never the less, the Metallica/Megadeth fued produced some the best and classic thrash metal between the two bands until Metallica released "Black Album" and became a hard rock band. Megadeth continued to play a more traditional style of thrash until their 96' album "Cryptic Writings".
i plan on changing it to Mephistopheles in the near future based on the a character of German folk-lure. the Greek translation is "me" as a negation, "phos" meaning light and "philis" meaning loving therefore making it mean "not light loving" which describes me fairly well on a few different levels. so know you all have the scoop if that is the direction i go.
so what about the rest of you? what does your Gamertag mean?

Re: What Are the Origins Behind Your GT?
Well for 18 years I was known as Ice Man...and then Icey Baby as my swedish and Dutch chums used to call me.
But last year I felt it was no longer appropriate and wanted a more mature GT...something that was more me.
I love the Supernatural series...and so thought I'd go for Castiel initially, but no matter what variant of the name I chose...it was taken. Therefore, I chose Archangel, a powerful, protector of people and someone not to be taken lightly. I feel this is very me, especially now I'm a father...but also because I liken this to my play style.

Mine is a variation on my name (Allyssa). I always played too rough for the girls, and the boys would tease that I wasn't a lap cat but an alley cat. So...yeah. lol
