My name came from its plain old ridiculousness. My roomate and i thought it would be an appropriately ridiculous name for a an xbox live account, so when making my Conquer Club account, it carried over.
TIME OUT! I don't know who he is, but i think i saw a cartoon about him on a website before! On weebl stuff.com or something along those lines. NOooooooooooooooo, wait, maybe it was patrick moore, i don't remember, i would normally delete this post in utter failure, but alas, i don't care. I was really excited for a moment there.
i'm gonna bump this one. i found this thread kind of interesting.
i believe jolly roger refers to the skull & crossbones pirate flag. i, however, am not jolly and my name is not roger. i'm not a huge fan of pirates but i did like that character in the movie dodgeball who thought he was a pirate.
now, let's get back to some name origins that actually ARE interesting...
I might have already posted in this thread, I dont remember and dont feel like reading it all again, but I was reading The Prince by Nikkilo (sp) Machiavelli, when I found CC and I decided that that would be my name.
My name came from my screen name on aim..
Which I came up with when the pope was dying.. I said i'd be pope some day.. which I knew would never happen.. So I eased the pain of the realization that I wouldn't be pope, by proclaiming myself the pope.. in a screen name.. And a friend suggested adding evil..

So, I use it everywhere....except my photobucket. On there it's "Bing Crosby." I have no idea why I named myself that there... I guess I had too much of the eggnog we bought earlier for Christmas. Oh God that eggnog was good.
One fine day I was looking for someone to play risk with but there was no one to be found. then I searched the internet for a free online multiplayer risk game and thats when I discovered conquer club. shortly after I was creating my account just as my little brother was finishing watching star wars episode 3. he was so excited about the movie he was ranting "Tyler were you watching!?! my favorite parts were when they were fighting on Utapau and Mustafar!!" he found out what I was doing and whined to mom telling here to tell me to let him make the name. and unsurprisingly he fused two planets from the movies together
Mine actually has meaning, its not random.
