A play on words that some don't 'get' unless they read it out loud. I've had this online name now for over 10 years. It got banned from 2 sites for being offensive :huh: and on BOTH occasions the Mods who messaged me said they found it funny but they had had one complaint :/

In fact I met my wife because of it. She started talking to me because it made her giggle. Been married for for 7 years now all because of my name.

My original username 'ammali' is based on my real name.. I changed it to 3 Charisma when I subscribed and got the + in front of the name, because I love RPG games, D&D, etc and it reminded me of the stats increase after a level up :D

metal_dragen - comes from way back in the day on IRC (mid 90s). I am into heavy metal music and fantasy/sci-fi so I tried to register metal_dragon with NickServ and it was taken, hence the 'e' in dragen. Been using it ever since, with and without the underscore, though most of my friends just call me metal on Vent and the like.

Self-explanatory. :)

My previous name had a bit of history behind it. I probably wrote about it somewhere in an older thread about this same topic.

Ninja Grinch: One of my friends always called me a Ninja because I was pretty quiet when coming around and they usually called me a Grinch because I always stole his kills on Halo. Just put those together. :D
