For curiosity and boredom's sake, I wanna find out how many of you have a username not related to FMA at all.
I'll count myself as one.

During the middle ages, while the black death raged in Europe thousands of people dropped dead. Among those who survived plundered the homes that were infected and stole richees and such. As a precaution against the black plague, these thieves soaked a rag in vinegar and put it over their mouths and noses. Thus my name.

Wow. That's interesting and historical.
For mine, I came across the word "Ailurophobia" meaning fear of cats. I thought the root word flowed and sounded elegant so I used it. Keep in mind though that I'm not ailurophobic.
From the Greek "ailouros" (cat) and "phobos" (fear). Alternate spellings: "Aelurophobia," "elurophobia." The Greek word "ailourous" has also given us the English word "Ailuroidea," a zoological term for a group of carnivorous animals including cats, hyenas and civets.
Yep.

Mine is, well, obvious.

But in case you don't know, "I" am named after Instructor No. 14 --- Quistis Trepe --- of BALAMB Garden in FFVIII.
The "88" does not stand for "Heil Hitler", but symbolizes the 88 keys on a standard piano. And the number 8 is a good number in Chinese.

There's a mini-chain of Oriental supermarkets in my area called Super 88. Oddly, the ADL hasn't pursued litigation.

OK, I forgot why I chose this particular username. I think it was because I couldn't come up with aname of my own, so I'm asking people (in a restaurant) to choose the name for me.
If you know twisted Japanese, than you know what I'm talking about... >__> I don't seem to make much sense...

Omakase shimasu (pronounced "Oh-mah-kah-say-sheemahss") = "At the chef's pleasure."
In other words, please choose for me. ^ ^;; (I figured)

I'm not good at Japanese(in fact I know practically nothing), but my name should mean rarified air (or soul or vigor..the dictionary gives a few meanings).. and it's chosen for a reason... I'm such an airhead at times.
Teenage mutant turtles? I don't get it.

Umm... I juss happen to like stuff that goes "blingXbling"... XD

Ninja Turtles and Ghostbusters were my childhood obsessions. Most of the VHS' my family had were recorded episodes and I had almost every ghostbuster toy there was.
