My first level 40 character in NeverWinter Nights. Why I chose this name as the character, I'm not sure. Sounded good, so I went with it, I guess.

Mine means just a seraph or otherwise and the highest rank of angels.
Its plural but I made it so like it means 'The Seraph".

Inferno comes from the actual tempest. I always thought fire was cool, and Inferno is the coolest word that is synonymous to fire. I've actually been using Inferno since before I learned about HOMM, so it actuallt has nothing to do with me liking the Inferno faction. In fact, I hate them.
(GT)X 8800 is my Graphics Card model, I just cut off a zero.

OD is short for Omega_Destroyer. I didn't have enough space to put that when I signed up. Why I just didn't put OmegaDestroyer is beyond me. Anyways, Omega Destroyer is Omega Red's super attack in Marvel vs. Capcom 2.

My Neighbor Totoro (Japanese. Tonaki no Totoro) is a movie.
Totoro is that adorable "beast"
It's my name because this movie is very close to my heart.
It was one of first movies I saw in my life. I was 4 years old. It's been my favourite films since then.
Hayao Miyazaki's works are great, they're those that you will remember for your lifetime. I've seen almost all of them.

Yay! i finally remembered about this thread!
Anyway, unlike other ppl with names from the game, i am not gonna say that it is self-explanatory, i am gonna say why i chose wulfstan instead of gothai or lazlo or agrael. i chose Wulfstan because when i played the HoF campaign, i made an outstanding build for him and i just blasted through each mission. on the last mission, which many ppl said was very challenging, i beat lazlo when he was in his castle with an army 2x my size. i killed him very badly and still had about half of my dwarfs left. so, now you know why i chose Wulfstan as part of my nick. now, why 8182? well, back in the days, when H5 didn't exist and only Ubi and Nival knew about it, i used to be an addict of an mmorpg called runescape. the name of my charactor was Monster 8182. my mom likes this korean art of fen-shui and my "lucky numbers" were 1 and 2 according to fen-shui. then, it is currently the 8th cycle of the world(out of 9, don't worry, the world won't end after the 9th one, fen-shui says that), so i decided to use 8182. now putting the 2 together, i got Wulfstan8182. i don't really like my name now tho, too bad i didn't really think of it. now, whenever i have to enter a nick, i enter... behold...
Sir Wulfstan.
so yeah, if you see a guy in any mmog named Sir Wulfstan, it's me.
EDIT: i also use other stuff instead of Sir. i currently have ones with King and Lord too.

My nickname comes from Sargeras the Destroyer and IMO he's the greatest evil character ever made. He's mad, insane, demon, eternal, dark titan and the creator and leader of Burning Legion

I decided to model my name based on Lazarus, mainly because i liked the sound of it (interestingly enough, I first heard the name in the form of Archbishop Lazarus, from Diablo lore, and only afterwards found out about the bible connection).
After finding out about Lazarus' bible story, I felt the name had a specific significance for me. I have an irritating habit, no matter how often I die, to KEEP COMING BACK!
Then decided I wanted to personalise it to an extent, so it became Lasharus. Been using that one ever since
And incidentally, Sargeras, there's a good chance we'll be killing him (you?) in an upcoming WoW expansion

Mine is from those of the Keepers of The Grove in Warcraft III (those half-man half-stag nature casters). When I joined HC, I thought of using the name "Dagda", which is another name of this kind of hero and is also the name of the Celtic God of beer.

I thought out mine by figuring out which name that would remind me of something really viking/norwegian-like. I know there is a neighbour of my grandma which name is Arnfinn, then I started to experiment with different variations...So in the end I landed on Orfinn, which suits me very well
