Barefoot Girl:
I called myself Barefoot Girl Cuz I'm terrible with coming up with names for stuff like this so it was the first thing that came to mind. Im a girl (er... WOMAN. Im 24 years old xp) and i'm a barefooter. I hate shoes so I prefer to be barefoot.  lol so yeah...

markpeterjameslegg:
My actual gaming name on Xbox Live, Steam and various other places is "MarkMadPage". Mark & Page cos that's my name... The "Mad" comes from a very old picture of me and my brother's Andrew & David buried in the sand when we were kids, my mum wrote the first letter of our names in the sand in front of us spelling "MAD". Not sure why I didn't use it here, I generally use "markpeterjameslegg" on forums, it was my original birth name.

CCsaint10:
My user name originally stemmed from my brother having an email address of utelax34 when he went to the University of Utah because he played lacrosse and his number was 34. I really look up to my brother and wanted to be like him when I was younger and originally made my email when I was a freshman in high school 'bklax23'. That was also my username on this forum, originally. The high school I went to was Bishop Kelly High School (bk). I played lacrosse (lax) and now coach it, and I was number (23) when I played - hence bklax23.

Then fast forward to college - I went to Carroll College (CC) in Helena, MT. I figured I should retire the old name since I am not in high school anymore and it didn't make sense. The mascot there is "the Saints" and my original graduation year was (2010) - hence CCsaint10 (with preference on capitals on the two cc's). Sadly, I broke that username when I graduated in 2011 (whoops). I decided to keep it that way in the end cause 11 just didn't seem right after having it for 4 years.

Now that I am out of college, I always say to myself that I should change my name. The primary reason I don't is everyone is so used to calling me "saint" and it just stuck. If I changed it now, it would confuse everyone pretty much. So yeah, my name isn't that exciting but there is the story behind it if anyone ever wanted to know.
