First time on the PS3, had to choose a username. It had to have a "killa" in it. I tried "killa," it was already taken. Put some random letters in it? "ghskilla." I still don't know how I ended up with GHS, but then I remembered there was a high school I'd attend that has the initials GHS, so I guess that's why. I'd change it, but I've had it since January '10. I'm stuck with it.

Nothing. It's completely random. In the future when I get premium I'll change it to SyrupWafer

Massive Raikkonen fan and as he is the number 1 driver for me I figured I'd replace the i with a 1. I use this nickname for all 'car' related forums. I also used to host a F1 live stream on ra1kkonen.com, but I forgot to renew the registration and lost the domain.

My username means the 7 notes of the scale.
The 96 was when my parents got married
Ahh that's sweet!
I had to Google mine..
Carlos \c(a)-rlos, car-los\ as a boy's name is pronounced KAR-lohs. It is of Spanish origin. Variant of Charles (Old German) "free man". Carlo is an Italian form. See also Carl. Film directors Carlos Saura, and Carlo Ponti.
I like the "free man"

Does'nt the 'mazerati' give it away? I'm not illuminati enough to be literati . . . 
User IDs and avatars are our clothes and personalities as (our esteemed and almighty leader, keeper of the flame,) Jordan Greer mentioned in some post somewhere in the millions of posts around me. Don't ask me where - I'm lost, too!
When I went Premo I wanted to change my name, but having been around already a year and having made many friends around the Forum in the different discussions or groups I participated in, I decided to stay on as they 'knew' me and were comfortable with that personality.
Imagine if I changed my name suddenly to 'jetboi69'
I had a different avatar before . . . but that's another story.

USARMY= United States Army COMBATVET= Combat Veteran or in other words, I served two tours of duty in a hostile fire/imminent danger combat zone. Don't worry, I won't tell you any war stories because the ones I have are either too painful to mention or I'd simply come off the wrong way. My uncle served in the US Army Infantry in Vietnam and I still don't know what happened to him--He didn't tell my dad until 25 years later. It's not a badge of hubris. It's a badge of honor and I wear it with respect to those who can speak no longer--living and dead.

Originally made the username when I was a fan of the Hennessy Venom 800TT. Ain't a Hennessy fan now though after he scammed all those customers a few years back... lol

I was 12 when I made my PSN, just under 3 years ago now, and at the time I had an obsession with wolves and dragons, and I was born in 1997. Now, I'm not so much obsessed with them, and it's mainly cars and rallying. I mean, I've always been obsessed with cars and rallying, but at the time of registering I was going through a wolves and dragons phase.

Get Premium and you can not only change your UserID, you'll be helping out with keeping the site live.
Also, IIRC, as a Premo, you can assume a new 'guise once a year.

My first name is Zach and I am a pretty big McLaren F1 fan, so I just stuck my name in the middle. It's then connected to 1138 because of the Misfits song "We Are 138" which is a reference to George Lucas's first film: "THX-1138". I also love Star Wars and there are many "1138" references in those movies too.

Cargorat: Comes from a welding and fabrication shop I used to work at before I became disabled. The place was called Cargotainer and people on the outside called us cargorats. Name comes from a combination of Cargotainer and factory-rat.

When making my PSN, I decided to use the first initial of each member of my wonderful family. Mine, my wife's, followed by the three kids, and the Smitty part is pretty self explanatory. By the way, our last name is not Jones.
Having my username here the same as my PSN seemed easier and appropriate.

I couldn't be bothered thinking of something else so used my name in a sorta funky way "paulmac2k9" made it in 2009 . If I could change my PSN it would be.. TouringCarPaul since everyone in my college called me that for worshiping the BTCC .
