Title says it all. Story behind the name or reason for your name. Mine is pretty lame. I live in NZ and can't spell...

Last name is Titus, most people refer to me as that, and well 69 is just the first number I thought of to go with it.

had this name since like 1999/2000 when AOL instant messenger was the only way to communicate with friends, before cell phones were a common thing. Obviously, I'm a bit of a nerd but it's also a reference to the Poison the Well song "Nerdy".

In MW2 after a while I started to troll and only use the RPG to try and get all of the titles for it and I changed my Xbox Live name to RPG KAMIKAZE. When I started to play competitive and later went pro in Black Ops 1 I changed my name to (Team Name) KAMIKAZE it was easier to just use Kami as a callout so everyone started to call me that and it has stuck as my online persona ever since. If Kami is taken I usually use Kami Maybe.

There was a group of pilots or something that got shipped to vietnam called the thunder eagles but there wasn't a word for eagle in vietnam so they called them the thunder chickens and 4th grade me thought that was funny.

My insta is theletterelle, for the fact that people get confused with my name ending with an -ie or -y sound vs my real name sounding like "L." So, like the letter "L" was my best explanation.
Went with the smokin L here bc it's hype af and only NSers who have seen/known me on insta & vice versa could assume I'm the same person.
High key made a lot of NS friends this way in real life.

But does anyone remember chacha? You would text chacha (242-242) any question in the world, and they would have people Googling the answer and then texting it back. I think.. Lol

My name also stems from high school. In gym class each year, the end of semester project we had to do was creating a workout plan for an imaginary person. each year i handed in the same project to the same teacher just with a different client name. anyways by the third year i wanted a funny name so i used Andrew peacock and referred to him as drew thus was born: drewpeacock

50Kal
Posts: 2835 - Karma: 5,534
Was playing Call of duty one night with a bunch of work buddys while smoking.
Playing solo and I was crushing people with a 50cal rifle. I suck at video games but was doing great.
Super gamer friend walks in and show us stoned losers it was on easy setting. We all laughed.
Next day work my work buddys started saying "Kalvin was killing them with the 50cal.".
People started shorting the phrase in multiple ways. Went on for a few days.
Someone wrote 50cal on whiteboard for what lift I was working at.
I re wrote it as 50 Kal cause I spell my name Kalvin with a "K" (the right way).
Was called 50Kal the rest of the season.
Following season boss printed my name tag "50kal" and its stuck.
