What about yourself @RULE ?

RULE comes from my old MC'ing name back when i use to freestyle locally as a teen. The whole "I own this place" mentally morphed into me calling myself "The Ruler".

Revan is from Star Wars, and as a true nerd i have adopted the name for myself lol. Revan is awesome tho...

Wargrave is from the Agatha Christie novel: And Then There Were None, the guy is "A artist in murder". Which i thought was apt for the multi account i was planning on using to prove how good i was without replying on the RULE name.

SToBBaRT is a character from the Broken Sword video game series. The character is mad funny so i used the name for my keystyling account, so i could just write fun verses and not worry about punchlines so much.

Holla!

LOL the place i lived was called The Ville. So The Ville / Deville / The Ruler / Deville Ruler became Deville Rule lol.

I dropped the "Deville" part when i relised i wasnt a gay vampire. No offence Student :D. Twilight wasnt that bad actually...

Teek is an evolution from like 10 different names stemming from my old aol days.

Lets just say it started with a gay ass stupid name..things were added and others dropped, rinse and repeat. I've had Teek for about 14 yrs online.

The only 'multi' I have on here was used for like a week when I recently came back - Tsuto (play on Pseudo (false) because it was the fake me.

Other places I can't get Teek, I use Saikoteek (psychotic) On occasion I've also played SanTeeKlause for Xmas.

StoyMilk, Stoy's my name. I like Milk, my skin color's milky... idk tbh. OH. it sounds like soymilk. :)

Verity is my real name.... I finally decided to use it after I could think of anything else. I was known on here for a while as Crippin-V, aCOOstikk and TTown but probably stuck with Verity end of 07/beginning of 08.

Royal Flyness is obviously a play on Royal Heiness.. People always go on about how posh I am, so I thought it was quite appropriate

Phoenix is a lebanese bird well a phoenician or w.e their name and Lebanese people are decended from phoencicians...And I'm Lebanese so the name fits me.

Used to be Mealticket, at the time I was selling drugs and A LOT of people depended on my whole little business to feed their families... I was their Mealticket... admittedly it may be the worst name on the site but I couldn't give less of a fuck, considering I'm nice wit it regardless...

My name is formed from my initials.

O.S.Kar = Oskar

A-Thom: just my real name abbreviated

COLD K-O: the whole punchline thing plus the whole "knocked out cold" saying seemed cool.

Ace: tbh i have no idea why. shit sounds so generic. lol

Prose: well im a highschool senior and every year me and this club im in produce the school literature book and im in charge of the prose/poetry section. Prose has a lot of meanings. it means an intelligent person, dull, to write in a tedious style, etc.

GOOD GRIEF: charlie brown is that shit plus it seemed like a dope battle name.

I chose mine for hipster coolness.

You were two people I didn't like, one I didn't understand, now you're the homie...lol GOOD GRIEF

^that kinda stuff. RhetoriKaL came from my satirical sense of humor that only a handfull of few people get. (Right? @3FUEL) Honestly, Kross-Werdz dared me to change my name to this for entertainment purposes and it's been awesome watching people flip my name the same way in every other battle. I think Bar Shotz actually had the best flip on my name two years ago in a one-bar tournament.

People consistently question me about shit they already know the answers to. Hence why I rocked the name Captain Obvious for a good while.

Iono..i'm bored again.. holla

Unyqe . . . Had this for years and years before LB This was my Graffiti Name (yeah Im a vandal)

Grizz/Trap boi-:high: This is me, who i am. Niggas been callin me J-Grizzy Since middle school. I really fucked w/ it because it was a name even to me by ma O.G.

UrTurn- I used this name/account wen i first started Wicked Intell so i should keep ma members in shape without them knowin they was battlin me.

KrackPhaze/Mikey Clipz/Stryke Out- Ghutter ass nigga, Jus raw ass keystyles. concetps n schemes really.

some people were already using Mr Feeney so I picked uncle phil.... 90s show swag

i got the nickname 'crime' years ago even though only a few people still call me that as an adult. i switched the spelling to incorporate 'rhyme' and added 'Killz' to add a lil flavor.

i intended on dropping the Killz for live battles but just said fuck it and kept it.

Reaper: i was 10 lol
Jedigrym: A Jedi and A Death dealer
Carlos Brigante: PuertoRican and a Gangster
Los Briggs or Brigs: short for Carlos Brigante
Nigga I Rap Tight: cause i do

I been on plenty of rap battle web sites starting at "sixshot.com" to "Hip-Hopkings.com" to "rap-dome.com" to LB twice

Previous name I had when I first came on here (Thanks To Rupt Telling Me Bout This Site) when sixshot.com crashed my name was:

Shaolin Monk - I wanted this persona to be quite and learn as I was still new to text and audio battles I think this was back in 04 05 or 06 I created that account I made a decent run taking the sharp-with-blades style from sixshot here alot of people thought I was Asian as I only did text battles on here so inbetween the multiple deployments and sixshot coming back on I forgot the password and SM died

Then I came back in 2011 as Fiji Osa which stands for "Flow Sick"- plus it has been hard to come with fresh flips on me cos people only state the obvious

Punk - Something I'll never be.
Juno - Lost friends initials.

Streetz-da-hood: Shit sounded raw to me and reflected where I'm from

Frank Lucas: Had that one around the time American Gangster came out. Nigga went hard in the movie and in real life so I had to make it my username.

Simple. I'm not all there.

NOBLE is a title I earned in a fraternal order. As far as I know, its steeped in Masonry.

^ I use to stay in Noble Oklahoma. . . The ''Rose Rock Capital of the World''

This Is Gonna Take Awhile....
Okay, Soooo:
Lil' Dre - I Liked Dr. Dre And He Was My Favorite Rapper At The Time So Low & Behold I'm Rocking A Tribute Prodigy Name.
Lil' Dre-TheKing - I Wanted To Be Called King Even Though I Was Terrible So I Changed My Name.
Maze aka Trinity - Maze Came About As I Couldn't Figure Out What To Call Myself But I Wanted State That I "Couldn't Be Figured Out Unless You Study Me" So It Was Maze. (Kinda Stupid Now That I Think About It) Also, I Was Independently Studying The Illuminati & The Free Masons At The Time And I Felt Trinity Was Appropriate For That.
Trinity - Read Above, Felt Like Dropping The Maze Though. I Even Had Trinity.com Up For A While Lol
_MaZe - Cause Some Fucktard Had "Maze" Already Registered And I Dropped Trinity Cause The Chick In The Matrix Is Called That And I'm Not Very Girly.
KingMaze - Again Felt Like The Whole Royalty Bit, This Time I Wasn't As Bad Though.
TheStudent - I Changed This Once I Started Helping People In Late 08' - Mid 09'. I Felt It'd Be Ironic If A Dude Named TheStudent Was Helping People AND I Felt Like I Was Always Learning Something New Everyday So Student Seemed Appropriate. If You Think About It, Everyone's A Student.
Student - Went I Got Moderator I Dropped The "The" It Looked Cleaner. I Tried TheTeacher & Teacher For A Bit But It Didn't Feel Right. I Felt Like If I Gave Bad Advice It'll Look Bad On Me, Like "Hey Your Supposed To Be The Teacher, WTF!" Plus People Were Already Calling Me Stewie & Stu So I Changed It Back.

Multi Accounts:
ZionGhost - A Placeholder Account, Was Listening To Bob Marley At The Moment & Ghost For Not Using It.
Lou Scannon - I Looked Up Wordplay Names And This One Seemed Cool.
Hugh Cannon - It Was Like "Huge Cannon".
Hugh Morris - Liked The Sound Of It, Same List Of Wordplay Names As Above
iLL Smith - I've Always Like The Word Ill & Will Smith Is My Favorite Actor So... I Got It From Illimit Too, How He Had iLLy Nelson For A Bit.

I Can't Really Think Of Any Other Names.

To begin with I had this idea of never talking to anybody .. Never letting any information be known about me... Just show up battle and that's it... Like some kind of enigma

Now it's more like an ironic name

lol yeah so much for that plan....

InHumanEnFORc3R - Original Lb name, at the time was just looking for something that came off demonic w/ a dark tone lol, thought it'd gimme an edge (dunno why).

Mind Fuck - An idea triggered by heavy drug use and mind boggling lines... the kidz GONZO/

PJ Rora- PJ is a piece of my initials, and Rora use to be imprinted on Qualodes back in the day #HippieScripts

:high:

AlmightyRAP : Almighty"Rhymes Are Perfected"

Dissizit : Clothing Line Inspired Thought It Would Be a Dope Name .

Vice Ver$a : The Phrase Stuck with Me So Much At the Time I Just Wanted it As a Textcee name Lol

-----


bRought the thread back @RULE lol

A Baron is an English nobleman.

The Americans pronounce it Bear In Mind like the saying, the English pronounce it Barren Mind as in empty-headed.

I liked the juxtaposition.

Rigga cuz I'm a real ass nigga, and that's the only mothafuckin explanation a mothafucka gon get n that's on my soul. Ain't no need for no other account or name, what type of fuck shit is that

Motherfucker! I remember that account, I'm sure I had you in USS way back when. Small world.

TriggerHappy- It was a character from a video game for Super Nintendo (I forget which game) but that fucker was bad ass so i mimicd him when i was a wee lad.....TalkSick- Creative wordplay (at the time), fit well into the rap battle scene...stuck and ran with it......and ummm i dont have a multie :D...

I debated about changing it to Jaxx to make it more relevant and unique to my fittings, but ive already established my current name so its staying.

I got the name Wigsplit cuz i am a fighter, and after this dude tried to pick me up n slam me, i judo flipped that mothafucka with a tornado ddt type of shit n knocked him out, n a few cats started callin me Wigsplit cuz of it, n i like the way it sounds lol. Head wound, wigsplit, whatever lol. I have a multi that I got to hold a crew I tried to start called Da Looney Bin. That name is Machete, because Trejo goes hard as fuck in that movie lol.

^^^ You've been missing huh !?!?

word fiji, glad we linked back up on this bitch

but um, I picked Erupt because of the state of hiphop(rap) , basically surface rap is wack as fuck, so I thought Erupt would be fitting, sorta like bringing underground hiphop to the surface.

The name I go under for battles is StrongSide. It's from Remember the titans. A football term. When I start making tracks it'll just be Enfinite. Eminem is a huge influence of mine, so I named myself after his first album "Infinite" and just dropped an E in from of it because it was taken on another site, so I put the E to make it available.

Germanic
A Wizard That Hypnotizes People With His Words

I had a few weird names on here new name is pretty self-explanatory though

Because I lack the filter between brain and mouth that stops most people from saying completely insane/retarded shit.
